Chapter 2103: Untitled

In the dim bedroom.

The fragrance that lingered in her nose belonged to a certain woman in this world.

Li Tingshen opened his eyes slowly. The woman in his arms was soft and warm.

He raised his hand to push the messy hair away from her face, revealing her flawless face.

Even though she was lying quietly in his arms, her beauty was still dazzling.

It was the confidence and recklessness of someone who was born to be pampered.

From the moment he saw her, he knew that that beautiful and arrogant girl was dangerous to him.

He erected a barrier around her for no reason.

Later on, her extraordinary beauty, arrogance, and simple dominance were all reasons for him to hate her.

However, these copper bricks and iron tiles that should have been the barrier became sharp arrows with sharp spears that shattered his iron wall again and again.

All those years, in the countless moments when she was completely unaware, he had been forced by her time and time again.

All the reasons he had found for himself were to “remind” him not to forget his disgust for her.

Actually, why did he feel that she was dangerous the first time he saw her?

Because he had been attracted to her from the start.

He didn’t want to admit that he refused to fall.

Her love was simple and superficial, straightforward and passionate.

Her promise was too immature. She might die halfway.

He couldn’t predict how she would leave decisively once he fell for her. How would he end up then?

The dominance had never been his.

His rationality told him to reject her, but his instincts were attracted to her.

Again and again.

In the end, his rationality was devoured bit by bit. Even though he struggled all the way, he still fell deeply.

He loved that girl and this woman.

He loved Ye Qingqiu.

He had lost to her long ago.

He had lost completely, so she had to be his.

How could he watch her belong to someone else?

He couldn’t.

During those days without her, this empty bedroom was like a dark cage, trapping him, a prisoner who had willingly stepped in and chained himself.

Recalling the look on her face when she loved him and the determination she had when they had never seen each other again, he fantasized about her lazily shuttling back and forth in this house. She would be angry with him, wheedle with him, frown, and order him around…

It was death by a thousand cuts and also salvation.

Now that his delusion had come true, the only thing he could do was to hold on to her tightly.

Li Tingshen looked at her sleeping face quietly. His dark eyes were slightly closed and his thin lips landed on the tip of her nose. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were slightly red.

Fortunately, she still loved him and was willing to give in.

The slight itch from the kiss made Ye Qingqiu’s exquisite eyebrows twitch. She snuggled into Li Tingshen’s embrace and rubbed her nose against his chest before falling silent.

She looked a little innocent.

His heart was filled with something warm and soft. His lips twitched and he didn’t dare to move.

*

At nine o’clock, Ye Qingqiu woke up. She was the only one in bed. She stretched lazily and sighed before turning to look at the sky outside.

She had personally chosen the gray-yellow gauze curtains. The bedroom was in a cold gray tone, and the warm yellow color was just right to neutralize it.

In her memory, this was a space that belonged to the two of them.

She had finally barged into Li Tingshen’s world and gradually seeped into it.

Her obsession since she was young was almost obsessive.

She had finally won.

She had won the man’s almost obsessive love for her.

She had won miserably, so she should make up for it.

The door opened gently. She turned her head and saw the man walking towards her slowly.

He was tall and handsome.

For a moment, she suddenly saw that year through the mature and handsome man in front of her…

That fifteen-year-old handsome young man was thin and tall. He stood coldly in front of his uncle’s funeral hall. The first time he looked at her, he was indifferent and wary.

And she had chased him all the way from the mourning hall to the living room until he finally admitted that he loved her…

Twelve years.

From the door to her side, from fifteen to twenty-seven years old, everything happened in a flash.

“What are you thinking about?”

She was pulled up from the bed by the man and laid on his shoulder, allowing him to put on the shawl for her. His deep voice drifted into her ears.

She turned her head and looked at the back of the man’s ear. Her hand climbed onto his shoulder and her fingertips brushed through his short hair. She touched his ear and her red lips breathed warm air into his ear.

“I’m hungry.”

Li Tingshen paused and turned his head to tie her loose hair into a ponytail. His warm palm caressed her slender neck as he bent down to give her a kiss.

“Where are you hungry?” Li Tingshen’s hoarse voice whispered in her ear. His lips pressed against her ear as he continued to kiss her. Ye Qingqiu’s body trembled.

She sobered up a little, but she still laid lazily on his shoulder. “I’m so hungry and thirsty.”

Her soft voice carried a hint of urgency, making Li Tingshen afraid that she would really be thirsty the next moment. He took a deep breath and turned around to take out the water that had been placed at the head of the bed.

Ten minutes later, Ye Qingqiu was placed on a chair in the dining room.

An exquisite breakfast was placed in front of her.

Ye Qingqiu took a sip of milk and looked at the man who was cutting the ham for her. She asked casually, “You’re not eating?”

Li Tingshen paused for a moment before Ye Qingqiu put down the fried egg she had just taken two bites of. She curled her legs on the chair and held the glass of milk. She said lazily, “I’m not eating. I have no appetite.”

Li Tingshen pursed his lips and placed the cut ham in front of her. “Finish it. I’ll eat with you.”

The servant beside her hurried into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

After Bo Jinchuan appeared at the fitness club for a week, he finally frowned.

“Is it necessary to come every day?”

Li Tingshen glanced at him expressionlessly. “I heard that married men gain weight easily. I see that you’ve been living well recently.”

Bo Jinchuan’s calm expression changed slightly and he glanced at the mirror subconsciously. His expression softened and he turned to look at Li Tingshen with a rare teasing look.

“So, who despised you for being fat?”

Li Tingshen felt his temples throbbing before he snorted. “You should thank me for reminding you to maintain your figure and stamina before Shen Fanxing expresses her disdain for you.”

Bo Jinchuan didn’t seem to mind. “I work out two to three times a week. Other than that, I have golf games. Moreover, we eat regularly and healthily. I don’t think I have to thank you.”

Li Tingshen remained silent.

*

On Friday, the kindergarten had a weekend and there was no need to wake up early. Ye Qingqiu invited Shen Fanxing, Sang Yu, and the rest to a barbecue.

There was a barbecue grill in the courtyard and the children were having fun not far away. A few women sat at a white table and drank flower tea as they watched the men busy around the grill.

The scene was spectacular.

Ye Qingqiu supported her chin in boredom, her beautiful eyes filled with smiles.

“Indeed, looking for a man depends on your looks. You can live a few more years than others.”

Shen Fanxing laughed and asked, “What do you mean?”

“If you find an ugly man, once he gets angry, he will definitely think that he was blind back then. He doesn’t look good and he’s useless. It’s double the damage. If you find a handsome man, just looking at his face can dissipate half of your anger.”

Sang Yu looked at Bo Jinhang. As she roasted and ate, she waved the skewer and pulled Yin Ruijue, who had moved closer to her. She said impatiently,

“Go away, this is eggplant for my wife!”

She smiled and didn’t comment on Ye Qingqiu’s words.

In the long years to come, there might still be a lot of friction between them. But as long as their original intention to be together did not change, as long as they had each other in their hearts, some bumps and friction would only enhance their love for each other.

*

Bo Jinchuan placed a plate of roasted meat and vegetables in front of Shen Fanxing. He leaned forward and planted a kiss on her forehead. “What else do you want to eat? I’ll make more for you.”

Shen Fanxing glanced at the food on her plate and said, “Enough.”

As she spoke, Ye Qingqiu’s fair and slender hand reached out to take a beef skewer from Shen Fanxing’s plate. Bo Jinchuan glanced at her and his eyes darkened. From the corner of his eye, he saw the man walking towards them. He raised his hand to take the beef skewer that Ye Qingqiu was about to eat. His mouth was merciless.

“How do you have the cheek to eat something cooked by someone else’s husband?”

Ye Qingqiu paused and stared at Bo Jinchuan for two seconds. She couldn’t suppress her anger towards this male creature.

In this man’s eyes, other than Shen Fanxing being a woman, were they considered women?

Shen Fanxing felt helpless.

In terms of revenge, no one could compare to Bo Jinchuan.

Because of his reputation, Bo Jinchuan didn’t give Ye Qingqiu any face.

The atmosphere was a little tense. Li Tingshen walked over and placed the plate in front of Ye Qingqiu. “What’s wrong?”

Ye Qingqiu glanced at Bo Jinchuan and the corners of her eyes reddened. She stood up and threw herself into Li Tingshen’s embrace. Her delicate voice was laced with tears as she pointed at Bo Jinchuan accusingly.

“Hubby, he bullied me. Help me hit him.”

Shen Fanxing’s eyelids twitched.

Sang Yu widened her eyes in surprise at the sudden change in expression of the beautiful woman.

Li Tingshen patted Ye Qingqiu’s shoulder and looked up at Bo Jinchuan silently.

Shen Fanxing thought that she could see helplessness or doubt on Li Tingshen’s face.

However, Li Tingshen said to Bo Jinchuan expressionlessly, “Let’s fight.”

Everyone was speechless.

*

In the end, the two of them really fought and exchanged a few blows in the boxing arena.

The two of them, who were drenched in sweat, sat in the middle of the counter. They took the water from the service staff and gulped it down.

Bo Jinchuan rested his arm on his slightly bent knee. “That deliberate and clumsy acting. Can’t you tell that she’s pretending?”

Sweat dripped down his chin. Li Tingshen shook the bottle in his hand and chuckled. “It’s good that she’s willing to argue with me.”

Bo Jinchuan fell silent. He had never seen Li Tingshen like Ye Qingqiu.

She looked as if nothing had happened, but no matter how she deceived herself, numbed herself, and struggled, she was still trapped in a chaotic swamp.

Hence, he roughly knew that Ye Qingqiu was a god and a demon to Li Tingshen.

For her, he would gladly become her most loyal believer.

He couldn’t differentiate between right and wrong.

“Aren’t you afraid of spoiling her?”

Li Tingshen looked up and sighed, his eyes reflecting the white light above his head.

“She has been spoiled since she was born, but I still fell in love with her. Moreover… she has never hurt anyone.”

Bo Jinchuan remained silent. That seemed to be the case.

The little princess of the Ye family was arrogant and willful. She was full of thorns, but she had never hurt anyone.

There was always a reason to fall in love with someone. How bad could a woman who could make Li Tingshen fall in love uncontrollably be?

“You don’t have the right to ask me this question.” Li Tingshen finished the rest of the water and stood up. He reached out to Bo Jinchuan and said, “You’re worse than Sister-in-law.”

Bo Jinchuan smiled and stood up with Li Tingshen’s help.

“Only she is worth it.”

*

As they sparred, Li Tingshen’s lips gradually turned blue.

Ye Qingqiu saw Li Tingshen the moment he entered.

She frowned and frustration flashed across her face.

“I was just joking. Can’t you tell?”

A faint smile appeared on Li Tingshen’s face. “Didn’t you say that he bullied you?”

“Then why did you arrange a fight? I asked you to hit him, not get beaten up!”

Li Tingshen pondered for a few seconds. “It’s not good to ambush Brother Bo.”

Seeing the obvious frustration and anger on the woman’s face, Li Tingshen’s smile widened.

He leaned over and rubbed the tip of his nose against Ye Qingqiu’s cheek. “It hurts. What should I do?”

Ye Qingqiu raised her eyebrows. Her long eyelashes swept across the man’s skin as she looked at him coldly.

Then, she lowered her eyes and poked his heart hard.

“I’ve said it before. You’re mine. You didn’t protect yourself well and caused my things to be injured. I’m furious.”

As she spoke, the anger in her eyes intensified.

Li Tingshen lowered his head to kiss her, his deep voice filled with comfort.

“I promise, it won’t happen again. Do you want to help me apply the medicine?”

Ye Qingqiu glanced at him and bent down to take out the ointment.

“If this happens again…”

Li Tingshen bent down and sat on the sofa. He wrapped his arm around the woman’s waist and pulled her into his embrace. He looked at her quietly, waiting for her to finish speaking.

Ye Qingqiu frowned and squeezed the ointment onto her fingers. She lowered her gaze and looked into his eyes.

“If this happens again, I’ll run away from home!”

Li Tingshen smirked. “When the time comes, can I go next door for a free meal?”

Ye Qingqiu pressed the ointment on his face.

“… I can’t!”

*

The next day, Saturday.

Linlin didn’t have to wake up early to go to school. The family of three gathered for breakfast.

The kitchen lady served four sets of breakfast.

Ye Qingqiu looked at the extra portion and asked curiously, “Is there anyone else for breakfast?”

The kitchen auntie was also puzzled. “No?”

“Then the extra breakfast is…”

The kitchen auntie said, “It’s Mr Li’s breakfast. Hasn’t he been having breakfast with two people recently?”

Ye Qingqiu asked, “When did he eat two sets of breakfast?”

Linlin’s dark eyes flashed as he shook his head at the kitchen auntie. “No, Daddy only eats one breakfast because he eats breakfast with me every day.”

Ye Qingqiu paused and instantly understood something.

The auntie explained patiently to Linlin, “Because Daddy has to eat with Mommy after breakfast with you.”

With that, a warm smile flashed across the auntie’s face and she continued, “Otherwise, Mommy wouldn’t have finished breakfast obediently.”

Linlin was enlightened and looked at Ye Qingqiu with a smile. “So Mommy needs Daddy to coax her for breakfast.”

Ye Qingqiu blinked, her ears turning red.

She turned to glare at the silent man beside her and gritted her teeth. “Be careful not to gain weight in the early years and lose your stamina!”

Li Tingshen shook his head. “That’s why I’ve been working out recently. How do you feel about the results you personally checked last night?”

Her face flushed red. “… Not much!”

Li Tingshen raised an eyebrow. “Really? Looks like I have to increase the intensity.”

Ye Qingqiu’s eyes flashed as if she had thought of something. Her shoulders shrank in fear.

“I’ve decided… to wake up early every day to have breakfast with Linlin.”

Otherwise, she might not be able to bear the consequences of two breakfasts.

[Hehehe… National Day is good~ Are you surprised? Are you surprised?]
