Chapter 317: Don’t Make Me Get Rough With You
“Brother Burly, why don’t you want to get married?” Ye Ling asked doubtfully.
Unless a family were very poor, or if it were someone like Ye Xuan, who was focused on making a name for himself, any other person with proper background would get married and take a wife by the age of eighteen.
Burly Du’s family background was decent. He shouldn’t have a problem taking a wife. Moreover, he was related to the village chief. Surely there were people who would want to marry him.
Liu Duo raised a finely-shaped eyebrow as she listened to that. She was curious of Burly Du’s answer, after all she knew about his secret.
Er… Burly Du found himself cornered. How should he deal with this? Confess that he liked Ye Liu? He didn’t want to stutter and raise suspicion. For a long time, he said nothing.
Ye Ling suddenly got up and went to his side. Burly Du lowered his head to let Ye Ling whisper in his ear. The conversation ended with him blus.h.i.+ng and shaking his head.
This made Liu Duo wonder what Ye Ling had told him. After that Burly Du greeted them and he left.
“Ling, what did you say to him just now?” Liu Duo asked.
Even Ye Ling’s fair skin reddened as he stammered, “No. No, I didn’t say anything. Hey, Duo Er, I have to get busy now.”
He was avoiding her. He walked away, still blus.h.i.+ng. Liu Duo laughed about it as she followed him. She had time to spare, because there weren’t any villagers there to sell bamboo shoots at that moment.
Their house had a front yard and a back yard, both of which were very wide. They left their bamboo shoots to dry on mats in the backyard.
Ye Ling returned to the backyard and turned all the bamboo shoots over.
She hugged him at the waist from behind as she continued teasing, “Come on, Ling, tell me. What did you say to Burly Du? Don’t make me get rough with you!”
Her actions caught Ye Ling by surprise. His hands trembled.
On top of what she said and what she was doing at that moment, he could also feel a pleasurable softness grinding his back. Shyness overcame him as blood flowed to his ears
He moved about, trying to get away, “No, really. It was nothing. Let me go first, Duo Er. I have to flip these over.”
And so, Liu Duo really let him go. She folded her arms in front of her chest and stared at the back of his head.
The feeling of arms disappeared from his waist. At the instant, Ye Ling felt a little disappointed. Perhaps allowing her to hug him a bit longer wouldn’t have been so bad.
He looked back at her and found her giving him an odd smile, “Duo Er, why are you looking at me like that? You’re making me nervous.”
Liu Duo didn’t reply as she got closer. Ye Ling gulped and stepped back. What’s she doing? Gosh, I’m panicking like h.e.l.l now…
“Duo Er, you, you…”
He backed into a corner. Liu Duo put down her hands and had him trapped against the wall, “Ling, you’re a bad boy. You don’t want to tell me what it is you told Burly Du. That makes me unhappy!”
Trapped by Liu Duo and her powerful stance, his cheeks and ears only got redder, “Duo Er, I really, really, really, didn’t say anything to him.”
He gritted his teeth. There was no way he was going to tell her. It was unspeakable stuff.
Ye Ling didn’t dare to look her straight in the eye, so he stared off at random places. He was reminded of the times he had slept with Liu Duo and the special feeling he got when she was hugging him. He could feel his body going through some changes, and because he couldn’t quite understand it, he went to ask Ye Liu.
The answer he got left him embarra.s.sed. Thankfully, because it was a normal, healthy phenomenon, he got over it.
So he had asked Burly Du, whether it was because he couldn’t ‘harden’ or if he had an unmentionable disease that made him decide not to get married.
