Chapter 158: Good Girl, I’m Your Man
Ji Weixi did not struggle, however, because she was afraid that his hand would be hurt if she moved too suddenly.
Instead, she kept her head lowered and said nothing with a long face.
Li Shaoling carefully turned her around and touched her face.
“What is it?” He asked softly.
Ji Weixi looked up with an upset put, her tears pouring and her voice shaking. “You played me, Li Shaoling!”
She recalled all the signs back at Ocean City, finally understanding why he suddenly seemed to give her the cold shoulder and never bothered to explain who the woman was.
He was toying with her!
She was being jealous and all, only to come up short in the end!
She felt that she was the fool! A delusional fool from start to finish!
This was the first time she was tearing up again and again. Li Shaoling was flustered, and even as he wiped off her tears, more followed.
He held her again, stroking her back and soothed her. “I just liked your jealous look… that’s why…”
That’s why he did not explain. He wanted to take her to meet Li Wanyun and see her face when she found out the truth.
Then, that dead Mo Nanfeng came and bothered everyone. Who knew?
Indignant, Ji Weixi shoved him away. “You’re ridiculous, Li Shaoling!”
Too ridiculous!
Rubbing off her tears, she turned away and ignored him.
Li Shaoling’s voice became depressed and quiet at that. “I told you you’re my only one. I never had exes, but you didn’t believe me.”
Ji Weixi’s tears stopped and she turned.
The man in her eyes looked clearly hurt, with a dull, unhappy gaze.
He was a far cry from the demon who had saved her.
Her heart ached terribly then, and she walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his waist. “I’m sorry…”
She couldn’t control her feelings and emotions.
She didn’t want to fall headlong into his world, and yet she couldn’t help herself.
It was ironies and struggles—every. Single. Time.
Ji Weixi was too hygienic when it came to sentiment. She couldn’t accept her man having ‘history’ with other women, just as she would not dare to admit that Li Shaoling was hers.
Nonetheless, Li Shaoling lifted her chin. “Why are you apologizing?”
“You’re hurt because of me.” Ji Weixi held his injured hand, her thumbs circling over the blood-soaked bandage. “It wouldn’t have happened otherwise, and you wouldn’t have to kneel…”
Her heart tightened in bitterness once she remembered the sight of him on his knees.
“I’m yours. It’s perfectly natural that I get on my knees for you.” Li Shaoling replied, rubbing the dried trails of tears on her face.
“Okay…” She pouted, looking unhappy but feeling a sweet warmth inside.
A faint sadness crossed his face then. “Dear Weixi, are you still angry at me?”
She shook her head, biting her lip as she was still a little trouble. “You’re hurt because of me; I have no right to be angry…”
That said, there were times she couldn’t hold back, and would rather him sweet-talk her as much as she wanted.
When had she become so unreasonable?
“What nonsense is that?” Li Shaoling tapped her button nose. Arching his back while holding her, he kissed her again.
A minute later.
Blushing, she let go of him. “Don’t be like that. There are still others outside…”
Li Shaoling face darkened. “I don’t care.”
He was her husband. So what if he did whatever to her now?
It was only right!
Ji Weixi stood on her toes to peck his cheek softly, like a dragonfly touching water. He smiled and lowered his back, allowing her to wrap her hands around his neck as much as she liked.
Then, he heard her whisper in his ear. “Li Shaoling, you’re so nice…”
Li Shaoling bit her ear then. “I still have many other nice things. Care to see for yourself?”
“Go away!” Her cheeks went crimson. She hung her head, afraid of looking into his eyes as she shoved him off.
Li Shaoling kept her in his arms, his burning chest enveloping her as he spoke with his rich, low voice. “Good girl. I love you.”
Ji Weixi buried herself in his chest shyly. Her heart could not calm, and was beating in extreme excitement.
After a good, long embrace, she said, “I need to change.”
“Okay.”
Li Shaoling freed her, turned around and even added. “Go on. I won’t peek.”
He would get to see eventually anyway.
Ji Weixi only started changing after making sure that he was not looking.
After a while…
“I’m done.”
She had changed into loose, warm loungewear.
Her jet-black hair was dangling freely, and though her face was a little bruised, it was no less lively.
She walked up and took Li Shaoling’s jacket off as it was naturally.
Li Shaoling was clearly taken aback, but he did not stop her.
“Your clothes are dirty too, but your hand would make things difficult. I’ll help you change.”
Ji Weixi felt like the biting off her tongue the moment she said those words.
Aaaaaaargh!
She didn’t actually want to do it. Her mouth betrayed her!
Li Shaoling was very surprised too, but he soon smiled. “Okay.”
Ji Weixi thought that it would be simple, but Li Shaoling eventually compelled her to change all his clothing.
***
After a long, questionable moment.
Li Wanyun and the little one looked at each other. They had been listening outside the door for quite some time.
“Kiddo, what are they doing in there?” Li Wanyun asked quietly.
The little one put a finger on his lips and shushed her. “Making me a sister, of course!”
Li Wanyun’s eyes widened. “So… open-minded?”
In broad daylight, and with guests around?
“Yeah!” The little one nodded excitedly.
Unbeknownst to Li Wanyun, however, the little one had the wrong idea about ‘making a sister’…
Then, when they heard approaching footsteps, Li Wanyun quickly picked the little one up and moved to the living room, where they pretended to play a jigsaw puzzle.
Click—
The door then opened. Li Shaoling came out with a natural look on his face, whereas Ji Weixi was blushing even as she followed him.
“What were you two doing inside? It’s been so long.” Li Wanyun asked casually.
“Was it?” Li Shaoling glanced at his little meek wife beside him.
“Oh, youth…” Li Wanyun clicked her tongue.
That was when the little one whispered to Li Wanyun. “Let me tell you something very important! My daddy cannot do it!”
“Huh!? What?!” Li Wanyun was caught dumbstruck, and could not help staring at Li Shaoling.
He was certainly puzzled. “What?”
“Ahaha…” Li Wanyun quickly laughed it off. “Nothing…”
Damn it, to think that a man of the Li family couldn’t get it done!
There’s no way she would let this tragedy continue!
“Oh, look at the time. Let’s start cooking—I am famished after all, there were no meals on my flight.” Li Wanyun said, rubbing her own belly before walking up to take Ji Weixi’s hand as if they were very familiar. “Xixi, are there fish or prawns here?”
Ji Weixi was naturally a little surprised with the aunt who came out of nowhere, and was actually even more surprised because she liked her and did not seem to dislike her.
Still, she nodded. “There is. Why do you want those, Aunt Wanyun?”
Li Wanyun shook her head, however, and looked pointedly at Li Shaoling instead. “It’s for Shaoling!”
“Eh? Why?”
“Aphrodisiac!”
Ji Weixi flushed immediately.
This aunt… was too open-minded!
