Chapter 56 Don't cry, get a good night's sleep

Li Chengyi looked up, kissed Lin Yanshu's lips, and swallowed her words, which all turned into muffled groans.

Lin Yanshu was exhausted from being controlled by Li Chengyi like this, and in protest, she scratched Li Chengyi's back, leaving a series of cuts.

Li Chengyi was already immersed in the gentle embrace of love, his eyes reddening.

He kneaded the dough with one hand, while kissing Lin Yanshu's cheek, suppressing his urge to lose control, and praising her affectionately:

"Yan Shu is really great!"

…………

"Why are you crying? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Yanshu shook his head, then nodded.

………………

"This is too tiring, I don't want this anymore."

Li Chengyi satisfied her.

He picked her up.

Lin Yanshu thought Li Chengyi would let go of her, but there was no sign of that.

The candlelight burned as Lin Yanshu walked toward the bed, feeling as if she were about to fall with every step.

Lin Yanshu is like a gummy bear. To avoid falling off, she transforms herself into a dodder vine, spreading out her branches and tendrils to lock in her parasite.

The large tree it clings to silently endures the vines' entanglement.

In the natural world, they are all interconnected; so what if they are toxic or harmful?

He can't live without it anymore.

If the vines leave him, his wounds will be exposed to the air, so it's better to continue hurting him.

He enjoyed it immensely.

Li Chengyi couldn't help but hum in agreement a few times, praising Lin Yanshu:

“The inkstone is special, the inkstone is special, the inkstone is special.”

"I am here."

"I am here."

"I've always been here."

He's really going to be defeated by Lin Yanshu.

Lin Yanshu felt that Li Chengyi's compliments were odd and made her blush. She buried her head in Li Chengyi's shoulder and asked softly:

"I'm so tired."

Li Chengyi hugged Lin Yanshu tightly and placed her on the couch.

Lin Yanshu lay there, lost in thought.

……………

Lin Yanshu looked at the roof beams, exhausting all his strength. It turned out that when a person is powerless, they can really perform the actions described in the book.

She really thought Lee Seung-ik was like a tireless big dog.

Li Chengyi stopped acting recklessly.

Lin Yanshu thought she could finally rest for a while and moved her body slightly.

But Li Chengyi pulled her back, a tingling, numb sensation, like a bewitching demon, coaxing her.

…………

Don't be too naive and believe everything others say.

She only realized today that the demons and monsters of the world, with their hideous faces, were masters of deception.

she,

So tired.

It wasn't that she ate everything; it was that she was completely devoured!

In the very end, she couldn't say anything more.

Lin Yanshu was so tired that she fell asleep. She didn't care whether Li Chengyi would repay her or give her a chance.

Seeing that Lin Yanshu had closed her eyes from exhaustion, Li Chengyi kissed her body and ordered a servant to bring hot water.

He picked up Lin Yanshu and placed her in the hot water. The rising steam swirled and drifted between them.

Li Chengyi sat down in the bathtub, with Lin Yanshu leaning against him.

Li Chengyi looked down at the tired Lin Yanshu. It turned out that even dodder could be powerless to entangle its parasite.

Li Chengyi tidied up Lin Yanshu's things; they were his!

Li Chengyi lightly touched Lin Yanshu, who then began to scold him softly:

"Be gentle, it hurts so much."

Li Chengyi guiltily let go of her hand.

Lin Yanshu held his hand away, not wanting him to touch her.

……………

Lin Yanshu turned her head and nuzzled Li Chengyi. Li Chengyi knew he was in the wrong, so he gently coaxed Lin Yanshu.

Clean up Lin Yanshu.

After making sure Lin Yanshu was clean, Li Chengyi dried her off and dressed her in new clothes.

He quickly tidied himself up, and after Li Chengyi finished and returned to the bed, Lin Yanshu was already curled up in a ball, quietly asleep.

Li Chengyi climbed onto the bed and looked down at Lin Yanshu's peaceful sleeping face, which looked sweet.

Li Chengyi leaned over and crawled into the quilt, encircling Lin Yanshu, resting his chin on Lin Yanshu's shoulder, and fell asleep.

……………

……………

The next day, Lin Yanshu was woken up by Li Chengyi. She didn't know where Li Chengyi got so much energy to get up.

Actually, Li Chengyi didn't get up early; he only called Lin Yanshu after he had finished taking care of other things.

He thought that Lin Yanshu must have eaten something since he was so tired last night.

Lin Yanshu's eyelids twitched, but they were very heavy. In the end, she didn't open her eyes. She opened her mouth in a daze, her voice heavy with a nasal tone:

"I don't want to... move, okay?"

Although Lin Yanshu's voice was soft and gentle, and she seemed to be asking a question, she was actually informing Li Chengyi.

Only Lin Yanshu had the courage to defy Li Chengyi.

Li Chengyi looked at Lin Yanshu, who was curled up in a ball under the covers on the bed, sat down beside her, reached in and touched her. Lin Yanshu was too limp.

Li Chengyi's fingertips were cold, and even through the clothes, Lin Yanshu felt the cold. She quietly moved her body further inside, and Li Chengyi continued to caress her like this.

He watched Lin Yanshu with a cold and listless cat, not wanting to move or pay attention to anyone.

He held the ointment in his hand, unscrewed the cap, withdrew his hand, and twirled his fingertips over the ointment, leaving his hand covered in it.

He patted Lin Yanshu with his other hand, trying to get her out of bed, but Lin Yanshu didn't listen.

Li Chengyi gave a helpless smile. He had called out to Lin Yanshu, but she hadn't listened.

Li Chengyi pulled back the silk quilt covering Lin Yanshu's legs and removed the sash from Lin Yanshu's waist. Lin Yanshu groggily opened her eyes, sat up, and looked down.

Li Chengyi leaned over his own moonlit retreat.

It probed into its mouth and belly, swirling around.

The ointment feels cool.

However, once the ointment is applied, it begins to take effect, promoting blood circulation and generating heat.

Lin Yanshu frowned and grumbled unhappily:

"Why are you asking for this so early in the morning? Don't you feel ashamed?!"

Li Chengyi, with one hand pressing down on Lin Yanshu's groin, raised his head to look at Lin Yanshu, who was glaring at him, his face full of innocent charm, still retaining the coquettishness of the aftermath.

Li Chengyi licked his dry lips and smiled:

“It’s not early morning anymore, Yanshu.”

"Is I so thirsty in your heart? I'm applying medicine to you."

As he spoke, Li Chengyi quickened his movements, and Lin Yanshu suddenly snapped back to reality and withdrew his hand.

Her eyes were filled with tears, and she stopped him in a trembling voice.

…………

Li Chengyi, head held high, slowly and methodically propped himself up, his voice leaving no room for doubt:

"No, we must apply medicine."

"It's already like this."

Li Chengyi's voice was slow and carried a hint of authority.

"口口".

Lin Yanshu looked at Li Chengyi; his eyes were burning hot, like the sun, like intense light.

As Lin Yanshu and Li Chengyi remained locked in this stalemate, Li Chengyi withdrew his hand and slowly wiped it clean with a silk handkerchief.

It no longer shines.

"I'll apply the medicine for you, or I'll watch you apply it yourself."

Li Chengyi only gave Lin Yanshu two choices.

Lin Yanshu glared angrily at Li Chengyi. How could he be so shameless as to keep an eye on her?

Both options were equally difficult for Lin Yanshu to choose between.

She had to move around to apply the medicine herself, and her whole body ached terribly; she didn't want to move at all.

Lin Yanshu resignedly lay down, resigned to his fate, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Then you can come."

Lin Yanshu closed her eyes, her hands gripping the corner of the blanket tightly beneath her.

When dodder vines twine around people, they change color; instead of green, they turn a vibrant pink.

Li Chengyi glanced around indifferently, a hint of emotion hidden in his eyes.

He spoke again:

"Open."

Lin Yanshu felt that Li Chengyi's words were cold, but she still listened.

That's how dodder is; it never puts up a big, fierce resistance.

Li Chengyi's movements were very gentle, much gentler than last night, and Lin Yanshu gritted her teeth.

Marshmallows can make sounds, and marshmallows can shed tears.

………………

She was sweating.

Li Chengyi withdrew his hand, stared at his fingertips, put his fingers in front of his nose, and sniffed.

He looked thoughtfully at his fingertips: Was Lin Yanshu made of water?

Lin Yanshu saw his actions, pulled her clothes back, threw the silk quilt she was under at Li Chengyi, turned her back to him, and cursed:

"abnormal!"

Li Chengyi was covered by the blanket that was suddenly thrown at him. He took off the silk quilt and threw it on the bed without refuting Lin Yanshu.

Looking at Lin Yanshu's angry expression, he felt that Lin Yanshu was right; he was indeed quite abnormal.

He poked Lin Yanshu's shoulder, turned her over, helped her up, and sniffed her.

Lin Yanshu's eyes were slightly closed, her body limp. Li Chengyi's palms rubbed against the fabric, making a rustling sound. Lin Yanshu turned her head to look at him:

"What are you doing?"

"award."

Reward his grandpa!

"I want a reward."

Lin Yanshu didn't know what reward he wanted, but she soon found out.

Li Chengyi reached inside, slightly pulled open Lin Yanshu's collar, and lowered his head.

Lin Yanshu's eyes widened. Li Chengyi... he's a bad guy!

He said he was going to eat, and that's what he was going to eat.

Li Chengyi squinted his eyes in enjoyment, then looked up at Lin Yanshu, his face flushed, and met Li Chengyi's gaze.

Lin Yanshu couldn't stand Li Chengyi's gaze, so she covered Li Chengyi's eyes with her palm.

…………

…………

…………

Li Chengyi got up with satisfaction, his eyes no longer squinting, his beautiful peach blossom eyes looking at her.

It's winter now, so the peach blossoms aren't blooming, but the plum blossoms are.

Lin Yanshu looked at him with disgust and curled her lip.

He gently coaxed her:

"I won't do this again. Get up, eat something, and take your medicine."

Not like that anymore? Didn't he say it was a reward? Will he only punish himself from now on?

Lin Yanshu gave him a charmingly innocent glare and said lazily:

"I don't believe it."

What medicine should I take?

Li Chengyi couldn't control himself last night. He was afraid that Lin Yanshu might be pregnant before the wedding, so he had someone make a contraceptive soup.

"I had someone prepare the contraceptive soup, and it's just been cooled down."

"No need, I took my medicine before coming here last night."

Upon hearing this, Li Chengyi paused for a moment, then clenched his fists, his eyes darkening, and questioned him word by word:

"You drank contraceptive soup before you came?"

Lin Yanshu didn't notice the unusual tone in his voice and nodded.

Li Chengyi's dark eyes were as deep as ink, his gaze cold and his voice low, yet brimming with rage.

"You had this plan from the beginning?"

Taking medication beforehand, even if it's bad for her health—does she really not want to have a child with her?

Lin Yanshu had no idea what Li Chengyi was thinking, but she knew he was angry.

It was obvious that Li Chengyi's face was gloomy, he was biting his cheek, and his eyes were no longer as tender as before.

Lin Yanshu asked helplessly:

"What’s wrong with you?"

"I'm angry."

Lin Yanshu blinked. She thought Li Chengyi would make excuses and then she would have to ask him a lot before he would tell her.

She was so blunt that she didn't know what to say next.

Lin Yanshu thought blankly for a moment, then asked:

"Didn't you reward yourself? Why are you still angry?"

Could it be because of those few words I uttered? But who told Li Chengyi to be so shameless?

Li Chengyi looked at Lin Yanshu with eyes full of grievance, so much so that Lin Yanshu could see the tears welling up in his eyes.

What's wrong with him now?

A man's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; it's so hard to fathom.

Lin Yanshu reached out and pinched Li Chengyi's cheek, but Li Chengyi pulled back, preventing her from touching him.

Lin Yanshu said somewhat impatiently:

"What's wrong with you?!"
