Yao Ying already put several big bottles on each corner of the pavilion and because of the darkness, Yao Ling didn"t notice them. Even if Yao Ying put it in front of her, Yao Ling wouldn"t pay attention to them... she was too busy enjoying the moment ah~!


With a flip of his sleeve, Yao Ying opened the bottle lids with his inner qi and the things that were kept inside those bottles started to fly out one by one.


When Yao Ling opened her eyes, she was welcomed by hundreds of tiny lights that were flying around her. She was astonished at first, but she paid close attention to those lights and she finally found out that those were actually fireflies... Her eyes reddened because she knew how much time and effort Yao Ying had put for this one night... She was pretty sure that it would take a lot of time to catch so many fireflies at once.


Thus, Yao Ling couldn"t blame him anymore for using the sleeping powder on her. There would be no way such a bizarre movement could escape her eyes... She wondered when he was catching the fireflies, who helped him to achieve this romantic moment, but she decided not to ask. Just let the man keep his secret!


She twirled around happily and tried to catch one of them. Yao Ying smiled when he saw how she behaved so childishly, but he really enjoyed this moment. She managed to catch one in her palm. When she opened her palm, the firefly started to fly away and join its friends.


"So cute!" She thought to herself.


"Ying... thank you..." Yao Ling choked up when she said that. She felt really touched...


"This is the most beautiful moment in my life..." She spoke the truth, she never thought there would be a day she tasted the feel of love... In the past, she just thought this marriage as a necessity and based on mutual benefits, who knew... that she would be able to find happiness because of her mother"s arrangement.


Yao Ling glanced at the man in front of her and she had the urge to kiss him, but she was too shy to follow her impulse.


"What are you thanking me for? Making my wife happy is my job ah~!" Yao Ying humbly said, then he kissed the top of her head and said dramatically, "But... I haven"t finished yet..."


"There"s still more?" Yao Ling asked in surprise.


"Mmm..." The man answered with a hum.


Yao Ling started to get excited once again and asked, "What is it?" Her eyes were twinkling with happiness. Her merry att.i.tude was contagious, making Yao Ying laughed at her childishness.


This was the time to start the climax of the surprise...


When it reached this part, his back started to sweat once again despite his gentle smile. He knew that it would be now or never --- it was time for him to man up and tell her his feelings for real!


It was time to confess...


Yao Ying gulped and his anxiety started to appear once more. Despite of that, he knew that he must do it! He couldn"t ruin his own plan and back out at the last moment. This was the first time he felt like he was a coward.


He closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down. When he opened his eyes, he regained his calmness. Yao Ying used his inner qi once again and with a gentle swoop of his sleeve... the fireflies followed his gentle nudge, then, they started to clutter together and form three words in the air.


Wo Ai Ni.


It meant I love you...


The words were s.h.i.+ning so bright in the middle of the dimmed environment and they looked just like the glowing stars in the night sky. How could Yao Ling prevent her tears from flowing like a river?


She couldn"t. It was just too beautiful and magical.


Her emotions were in disarray, despite the happiness that she felt.


Yao Ying saw her teary expression and quickly asked, "Are you okay?" He quickly hugged Yao Ling to comfort her and he forgot to continue using his inner qi.


Without the guidance of his inner qi, the lovely three words started to disperse once again. The fireflies started to fly away but it didn"t dampen the atmosphere at all.


"Does she feel happy? If yes, why does she cry?" Yao Ying started to feel agitated. He didn"t intend to make her crying ah~! He thought she would be happy, well... at least. However, he would never expect that the woman would cry.


Yao Ying quickly helped her wipe her tears away and kissed her forehead softly... trying to console the woman.


"I"m... I"m fine..." Yao Ling finally managed to answer him. "Do... do you really mean it?" She asked in doubt because she was afraid that it was all just a dream. Maybe... she was still under the sleeping powder side-effect?


Yao Ying nodded. "I really mean it... I won"t lie about something that"s so important. I really... really love you..." He gently whispered to her, making the woman blush shyly. His words seemed to tickle the deepest part of her heart and it made her heart swelling with happiness.


Yao Ling bit her lower lips and she didn"t know how to respond, so she just stayed quiet. Yao Ling didn"t realize that Yao Ying had been anxiously waiting for her answer...


Did she love him --- or not? Yao Ying continued ask himself that question. The man was almost dying out of curiosity.


Yao Ling hugged his waist and laid her head on his chest, embracing the man tighter... Yao Ling just wanted to feel his warmth, so she could make sure that this wasn"t just a dream. At first, Yao Ling could feel his steady heart beat but suddenly it was beating erratically, and she started to realize that the man was actually nervous. She smiled softly...


He loved her! He really really loved her!


She wanted to shout and dance happily, but she knew how to behave. She needed to maintain her calmness --- as a woman, she needed to appear to be bashful ah~.


This was the happiest news that she had ever heard!


Yao Ying was still waiting but the naughty woman didn"t say anything to him at all. But instead, she snuggled into his embrace in a spoiled manner. Yao Ling was trying to hold back her smile, but she couldn"t. She was too happy ah~! Fortunately, the man didn"t see her smile, so she could tease him!


"Silly woman! Where is your answer ah~?" Yao Ying thought to himself. He decided to give her a little "push" to make her give an answer. He pretended to cough and asked, "So...?"


"So what?" Yao Ling asked while raising one of her eyebrows. After knowing his feelings, she decided to tease him for a little bit.


Yao Ying scowled when he saw the mischievousness in her eyes. "This little minx!" He thought to himself.


He punished her by biting the tip of her ear and nibbling on it. It didn"t make Yao Ling feel any pain, but instead, she shuddered... feeling a bit aroused all of a sudden. "Mmmm..." She couldn"t hold back her moan.


Yao Ying knew that it was her soft spot and he didn"t plan to release her anytime soon. He enjoyed their intimacy and while her mind was in a haze, he decided to ask, "Do you have something to say to me?"


Yao Ling"s mind was concentrated on the pleasure and the tingling on her sweetness down there, but she still managed to answer even though she was slightly breathless, "Yes..." She would never think that a kiss would affect her so much.


"Tell me..." Yao Ying demanded in a stern voice.


Yao Ling knew what he wanted know, and she smiled mischievously at him. "What a wonderful surprise..." She trailed off at the last moment.


Yao Ying smiled inwardly, waiting for the good part. However, the naughty woman stopped talking right there... He bit her ear once again, a bit harder than before, seemingly wanting to punish her... However, he licked the part where he inflicted the pain just now.


Yao Ling s.h.i.+vered not because of the cold night, but because of what he did to her. "This pervert!" She thought to herself. He really knew how to tease her ah~!
