Chapter 104 A Good Parting
Just then, some villagers came to deliver invitations.
"Grandma Zhou, don't forget the wedding banquet tomorrow at noon. Oh, and bring your granddaughter and grandson-in-law along. The more people there are, the more lively it will be, and everyone can get to know each other."
Grandma readily agreed and then told Qi Chenyan about it.
"Xiao Yan, there's a wedding in the village tomorrow. If Lili is feeling better, why don't you bring her to the feast?"
Qi Chenyan readily agreed.
Qi Xiaoyun stood beside him, holding a bowl, marveling at how delicious the chicken soup was while simultaneously feeling guilty.
How could he be bought off by the mistress's family just because of a bowl of chicken soup!
Even more so, the younger brother-in-law, as a member of the family, had to stand up for the mistress.
Moreover, it was in public. With so many people in the village, if someone recognized his identity, wouldn't he be ruined in no time?
No, he, as the nephew, must protect his uncle's image!
Qi Chenyan didn't have time to pay attention to Qi Xiaoyun, who was lost in thought. Afraid that Yu Li would be hungry since she hadn't eaten much that night, he went to the kitchen and personally cooked a bowl of light vegetable porridge.
Yu Li had a bit of an appetite, so she sat on the bed and sipped her porridge.
Seeing that she had stopped vomiting, Qi Chenyan was somewhat relieved and told her about the wedding banquet tomorrow at noon.
"Although the wedding banquets in the village are not as elaborate as those in the city, the ingredients are absolutely the freshest, because even the pork used for cooking is freshly slaughtered."
Speaking of this, Yu Li asked with great interest, "Have you ever seen a pig being slaughtered?"
Qi Chenyan thought for a moment, "Does seeing someone on TV count?"
Yu Li smiled and said, "I'll tell you a secret. You'd better watch out tomorrow, because the old folks in our village like to kidnap newlywed young people to slaughter pigs."
"It symbolizes a joyous and auspicious wedding, so stay close to me tomorrow, or you'll be arrested and slaughtered!"
Qi Chenyan chuckled softly, raised his hand, and gently wiped Yu Li's slightly dirty lips with his fingertip.
"So what's your favorite part of the pig? If I were ever caught and sent to slaughter a pig, I'd give you the freshest piece of pork first."
Yu Li couldn't resist and licked it.
Qi Chenyan's fingertips hadn't been withdrawn yet, and just then, they were warm and moist as he licked them.
Like a babbling brook, or a faint electric current, it traveled from my fingertips along the bloodstream, swiftly reaching my heart.
When Qi Chenyan's fingertips trembled slightly, his eyes darkened.
If his wife hadn't been looking at him with innocent eyes right now, Qi Chenyan would have suspected she was doing it on purpose.
"Would you like to eat more?"
Yu Li patted her stomach to indicate that she was full: "My little tummy is a bit bulging."
Qi Chenyan lowered his eyes, stretched out a hand, and placed his slender fingertips on Yu Li's lower abdomen, gently touching it.
The slight touch made Yu Li involuntarily curl her toes.
"She's not showing any signs of pregnancy; she's still very slender."
Yu Li deliberately asked, "If I get pregnant, especially towards the end, won't I become a round, fat woman and look awful?"
Qi Chenyan's hand moved from her lower abdomen to her face.
"No matter what others think, in my heart, no matter what you look like, you are the most beautiful."
This man must be a born Gu master, otherwise how could he be so good at using Gu!
Yu Li muttered, "Men always say sweet words to coax people when they're in bed."
Qi Chenyan chuckled, "But I'm off the bed right now, so what I'm saying is the truth, it's just sweet talk, but not a lie."
When it comes to eloquence, Yu Li was rarely outmatched by Qi Chenyan. She was left with only her cheeks flushed and unable to even mutter a word.
When I went to sleep at night, I realized that the bed was indeed too small.
When Qi Chenyan finished washing up and lay down, the bed felt very crowded.
There was enough room for two people to sleep, but it was just the right size; if they turned over, they might fall off.
"Isn't it too cramped? You might not be comfortable sleeping here all night. How about I turn to my side and sleep?"
As she spoke, Yu Li tried to turn to the side.
But Qi Chenyan was one step ahead of her. As he turned to the side, he stretched out his long arm and wrapped it around her waist. Before Yu Li could react, she was already in his arms.
Because they were so close, Yu Li's ear was pressed against Qi Chenyan's chest, and in the quiet of the night, her heartbeat was exceptionally clear.
Thump thump.
The intimate contact left Yu Li unsure whether it was her heartbeat or Qi Chenyan's that was faster.
"If we huddle together for warmth, won't it feel less crowded?"
Qi Chenyan's deep and pleasant voice rang out from right above his head.
His chin rested slightly on the top of her head.
Each syllable seemed to strike Yu Li's heart through the top of her head.
That's really dangerous.
Yu Li blinked and said, "The crowding is just an excuse; you really want to hold me while you sleep, right?"
After saying that, Yu Li wished she could bite her tongue.
The night was so beautiful that she was so captivated by the man's beauty that she dared to say anything without any shame!
Qi Chenyan chuckled softly again: "Yes, Mrs. Qi, please grant me this small wish."
When you throw out a joke and the other person makes sure it doesn't fall into place, and doesn't make you feel awkward at all, your liking for that person will steadily increase.
Yu Li relaxed and no longer felt shy. Instead, she rubbed her face against Qi Chenyan's chest like a kitten seeking milk.
I have to say, when a man has a really awesome physique, the feeling of his broad chest muscles rubbing against your face is just amazing.
Yu Li hadn't been rubbing against him for long when the back of her head was covered by the man's large hand.
As Yu Li looked up in confusion, wondering why the other person was holding her still, Qi Chenyan's eyes, which were lowered, were not as calm as usual.
Instead, it pulsates with a kind of extremely restrained desire, like clusters of burning flames.
“Yu Li, I’m a man with normal needs. My wife is in my arms. If I keep rubbing against her like this, something bad will happen.”
They've all been there, and Yu Li is no stranger to such things. Besides, the passionate encounter with Qi Chenyan that night is still vivid in her mind.
Hearing the man's low, hoarse words and noticing his body temperature had clearly risen several degrees, Yu Li immediately understood what he meant.
Her ears turned bright red, and her body stiffened. For a moment, she didn't know whether to back down or what.
"I... I'm in a special situation right now. For the sake of the baby, you have to bear with it."
Qi Chenyan smiled through gritted teeth: "Yu Li, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Knowing that he can't do anything right now, they deliberately provoke his anger without taking responsibility for extinguishing it.
Yu Li innocently replied, "How could that be? I was just testing whether Director Qi still had feelings for me without the effects of the drugs from that night."
"If there's no feeling, and if a couple doesn't have a certain level of happiness in their life together, then they probably can't go on living like this. In that case, they can part ways amicably, right?"
Qi Chenyan was amused by her amusement and gave her a light pinch on her lower back.
"Who do you want to part ways with amicably? Hmm?"
