Yao Ling shyly admitted it, "I pinched it, so I could squeeze out tears to gain pity from the matriarch."
Yao Ying: "..."
"I never know that crying is that hard! I can"t be like the other girls who easily crying..." Yao Ling looked down embarra.s.sedly.
"Well... that makes sense... she"s a strong woman, to begin with!" Yao Ying thought to himself. "And he prefers a woman who is strong and can fight beside him!"
Yao Ying speechlessly looked at his wife, then he flicked her forehead softly. "Why are you so impulsive? Don"t make this as a habit! You have to find another way to cry, just... don"t hurt yourself, okay?" After that, he brought her hands to his lips and kissed the mark softly. "You will break my heart if you hurt yourself like this."
Yao Ling blushed, making her snowy white cheeks became slightly reddening. Yao Ying"s words were slightly cheesy, but she somehow understood. When he said that he drank poison, it tore her heart apart. She sighed to herself and realized that her feeling toward him had become deeper.
Yao Ying sighed when he looked at his blus.h.i.+ng wife and felt that every movement of his wife always looked so alluring. Yao Ling pulled her hand back shyly. "Husband... don"t jest!"
"Why should I jest about something like this? I"m really worried about you!"
Yao Ying wanted to laugh. After what he had just said, Yao Ling"s face was getting redder and redder. If he teased her one more time, he was afraid that her face would look like a tomato.
"Oh... I almost forget! I have a present for you!" Yao Ying clapped his hands excitedly. He pulled out the presents from his sleeves and caressed them softly. These gifts contained his heart toward her and it meant a lot to him. He was slightly nervous because he didn"t know whether Yao Ling would like it or not. He hoped she could understand his feeling.
Yao Ying gave her the pendants and told her the meaning that the shopkeeper had explained to him. He looked at her tenderly when he found out that Yao Ling loved it so much and she smiled like a little kid which made Yao Ying happy too. They both got one each and Yao Ling understood Yao Ying"s meaning perfectly. He was taking this marriage seriously and he wished for the both of them to have a happy everlasting marriage. What more a woman could ask for? After all, this was just a convenience marriage at first.
"Thank you, Ying," Yao Ling smiled happily at him.
"Are you thanking me only with your words?" Yao Ying smirked at her.
Yao Ling furrowed her eyebrows, "What do you want then? I have no present for you... But I will try to find something for you tomorrow!" Yao Ling said excitedly.
"Geez! This woman really has no conscience. He doesn"t want a present! How gullible!" Yao Ying thought to himself. He decided to deny her present childishly, "Don"t want!"
"Well... what do you want then?"
Yao Ying wiggled his eyebrows suggestively. "You know what I want?"
Looking at his gesture, Yao Ling knew what the man wanted her to do. She slightly blushed but shook her head. Yao Ling pretended to be dumb, "No, I don"t know."
"Well... then it"s time for this husband to do something and claim the present myself," Yao Ying smirked.
"Do what?" Yao Ling asked.
"Taste you for a little bit." After saying that, the supposed-to-be-sick man jumped on her wife happily.
"Ompphhh..." Yao Ling yelled. "You are heavy, Husband...! Let me go!"
She never thought that this supposed-to-be-sick man still had vigorous stamina to pounce on her. "Ying... let go! You are not feeling well. We can do this another time!"
Indeed... she was touched by the lovely presents, but still... she didn"t want him to tire himself out. He had just fainted at noon, for G.o.d"s sake! Why couldn"t he tone down his behavior a little bit?!
Yao Ying kissed her lips softly and Yao Ling could only sigh in defeat, but nonetheless... she followed his example and kissed him back. She moaned his name softly, "Ying..."
Her sweet moan found its way to Yao Ying"s ears. It was soft and gentle, starting an itch from the bottom of his heart. He shuddered because of his swirling deep emotion. His wife always could evoke pleasant feeling deep within his heart.
*knock*
*knock*
A soft knocking sound reverberated inside the room. However, the couple was falling deeply into their pa.s.sionate kiss and didn"t hear the sound.
Both Xiu and Xiao Yu were outside, waiting for their masters" call. Xiao Yu knocked on the door because she wanted to ask whether the masters" still needed their help or not.They knew that Young Master had just got a ma.s.sive headache. When they didn"t hear any answer from inside, they felt anxious. They thought something bad probably had happened because the masters usually answered them. They looked at each other and opened the door slowly --- just trying to make sure that the couple was okay.
Xiu and Xiao Yu were flabbergasted when looking at their masters" behavior. Their jaw dropped and their eyes were widened in surprise. No sound could come out of their mouth. They didn"t know that they would be welcomed with such an amorous scene.
Both of their masters" were occupying their bed and they kissed each other without refrain. It was like they were watching "yellow book"[1] in real life! Although both of their masters" clothes were still intact, they never saw two people kissing as pa.s.sionately as them.
Xiao Yu was going to mutter a sound, but her mouth was quickly closed by Xiu"s hand to prevent her from talking. He shook his head, telling her to be quiet. He could see that Xiao Yu blushed and it seemed like she hadn"t gotten over her shock. His other hand hugged her waist and he quickly dragged her out. It was a sin for them to watch their masters" private time. It was best if they left before the two masters noticed their presence.
When they were out of the door, Xiu awkwardly released Xiao Yu and stood aside. When their gaze met each other, both of them quickly averted their eyes and blushed. Their heart was shaking because of what they had just witnessed. They were both quite innocent in the matter between man and woman, so what they had seen really made them feel embarra.s.sed. The funny thing was... both of them looked at the scene together!
Xiao Yu fanned herself because she felt hot all over her body. Xiu cleared his throat and turned around. Then he said, "We should probably wait for the masters out here -- just in case, they need us. They haven"t dismissed us for the day yet."
"Ye... Yes..." Xiao Yu stuttered. Her gaze fell into Xiu"s lips and the previous scene popped out inside her head once more. She felt like dying in embarra.s.sment. The redness on her cheeks spread to her neck and the tips of her ears, making her feel hot all over her body. She needed to calm herself down. "I... I need to relieve myself! I will be back later!" After saying that, she ran away just like her life depended on it.
Xiao Yu thought of the strong hand that held her waist and once again she felt shy. While Xiu... he thought about how her waist felt on his hand. It was so... soft and small. G.o.d! Both of their faces were beet red.
Xiu, who caught a glimpse of her look when she watched his lips, curled up his lips in amus.e.m.e.nt. The girl was actually really shy and innocent! His eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with laughter. Oh... How he wished he could kiss those luscious lips of Xiao Yu!
Back to the room, both Yao Ying and Yao Ling were deep into the kiss and didn"t realize their personal servants" presence at all! If they both knew, they have probably died of embarra.s.sment! Who would want to be seen in this kind of state by other people?! Fortunately, both of them didn"t know anything about it at all.
