Chapter 0048 Springtime Passion
Under Chen Yan's caresses and teasing, Ruyi's face flushed with desire, and she moaned softly with her eyes closed in her sleep. A long-awaited flow of spring water gushed between her legs, and she couldn't help but writhe and rub against him restlessly.
Seeing this, Chen Yan reached down and gently stroked and teased her. As soon as he touched her, half of his fingertips became wet. He was overjoyed and his fingers smoothly penetrated her.
The insertion of the foreign object into her body made Ruyi open her eyes hazily. The room was dimly lit, and her consciousness was wavering and unsettled. For a moment, she forgot who she was and where she was. She only felt the gradually awakening and intensifying desire within her body and the loving man with affectionate eyes right in front of her.
She raised a smooth, jade-like arm, hooked it around the other person's arm, and whimpered sweetly, "Ayan, it hurts so much..."
Chen Yan was jolted as if struck by lightning. He felt as if he hadn't heard that "A-Yan" in his life. Overwhelmed with joy, he almost trembled and cried. He pressed Ruyi down and gave her a deep, almost suffocating kiss, so greedy that he seemed to want to swallow her whole.
The sound of heavy breathing filled her ears, and hot breaths rose and fell against her face. Ruyi gradually regained consciousness, and her eyes returned to their calm state.
She could pretend she hadn't called Ayan and continue to be indifferent to him, but her body's reaction didn't lie; that deadly tingling sensation made her furrow her brow unbearably.
Chen Yan didn't tease her. He gently stroked her swollen belly, showering her with a series of delicate kisses, gradually moving to her core, using his soft, moist tongue to gently soothe the burning desire there. Ruyi awkwardly spread her legs, her hatred for Chen Yan intensifying due to the uncontrollable pleasure within her.
Like a greedy bee, he ventured deep into the heart of the flower, diligently searching for the sweet nectar, and then collected every last drop.
Even her anus was blooming bright red under the lubrication of some unknown liquid. Ruyi cried in great pain, her tears falling like broken pearls. Chen Yan coaxed her to arch her body, put his hands around her lower body, carefully protect her stomach, and slowly pushed the hot, hard object in little by little. His movements were gentle, and it took a long time to reach the bottom.
He let out a long sigh of relief, and began to move slightly, not forgetting to observe Ruyi's expression, repeatedly asking softly, "Is baby uncomfortable?" "Is baby comfortable like this..."
The next day, Ruyi looked normal, but Chen Yan was beaming and full of energy, as if he had absorbed all the essence of heaven and earth overnight.
Ruyi avoided him and went to the movie theater alone. He walked in right after the opening credits, making her feel annoyed, nervous, and somewhat guilty.
Chen Yan held up a bowl of double-skin milk pudding made by Aunt Zhou and asked her if she wanted some.
During pregnancy, there are many dietary restrictions, and Ruyi hasn't had sweets like ice cream or milk tea for a long time. Although double-skin milk can't compare to ice cream, it's definitely delicious when made by Zhou Sao.
Never give up on food. Ruyi swallowed hard, took the double-skin milk pudding, and ate it in small, reserved bites, her eyes still fixed on the big screen.
She was focused on watching the movie, while Chen Yan was focused on watching her. The way she ate reminded him of his senior year of high school, when she tutored him in the house she had bought for him to prepare for the exams. While he was engrossed in doing practice tests, she would analyze his mistakes while taking small sips of her milk tea through the straw, her rosy lips moving and her cheeks puffing out – she was incredibly cute.
He, then 18, caught a glimpse of this scene while taking a break from his studies. He couldn't resist leaning in and kissing her. He doesn't remember her exact reaction then, but even now, he can't help but be captivated, stealing a quick, sweet kiss when she's not looking. Ruyi cups her face, her eyes silently accusing him, their gazes slowly overlapping.
Ruyi should scold him, but thinking back to last night, the two of them had even done that kind of thing. Getting angry over a kiss on the cheek that was as light as a feather seemed like making a mountain out of a molehill... Now, she was a little confused about her own feelings and how she should treat Chen Yan.
She silently lowered her hand, her gaze returning to the screen, but her mind had already wandered far away, filled with scenes related to Chen Yan from the past few days.
For a period of time, affected by pregnancy hormones, she was emotionally unstable and particularly disliked Chen Yan. She blamed him for making her feel like a prisoner, stuck in this isolated house. As she thought about it, sadness welled up inside her. Zhou Sao tried to comfort her but to no avail. She then called Chen Yan, who was in a meeting at the time. She grabbed the phone and berated him without any regard for his feelings. He remained unperturbed and took it all in.
In the depths of winter, all the flowers had withered, the soil and stones were exposed, and the garden was filled with a desolate atmosphere. Only a few evergreen trees stood silently in the corner, their deep, dark green seemingly frozen. No insects or birds came, making one feel extremely lonely. Chen Yan saw her holding Tiger Girl, standing blankly by the window, gazing at the garden with a sense of loss. The next day, workers entered the garden, and a few days later, a glass greenhouse that combined insulation, ventilation, and drainage rose from the ground, occupying two-thirds of the garden area and standing five or six meters high. Soon after, truckloads of planting soil were transported in, and saplings took root one by one. Elm-leaf plum, hibiscus, rose, gardenia... and flower buds were still peeking among the branches.
One morning, she woke up early. Snowflakes were falling outside her window. She vaguely heard a noise coming from the garden. Intrigued, she went to the window. The glass greenhouse's roof and walls revealed a clear view of the interior. She saw Chen Yan watering the rose bushes in the center, surrounded by lush, verdant green plants of varying heights. Under the greenhouse's abundant sunlight and pleasant temperature, all the flowers that should have died in winter had come back to life, blooming in a breathtaking display. Tiger Girl, unable to contain her excitement, leaped lightly among the vibrant colors…
Aside from pressuring her to have children and constantly wanting to be physically intimate with her, he never forced her to do anything, such as flattering him. Several times she acted unreasonably and deliberately provoked him, but he never took offense and treated her even better.
If this subtle, pervasive approach continued, she would eventually be subdued. She couldn't help but fear—was she truly spineless, destined to be manipulated by Chen Yan's sweet talk for the rest of her life even after he had committed an unforgivable error? Life was long; if she were to suffer such humiliation again, she would have no face to live on…
At 32 weeks pregnant, winter has passed and spring has arrived. The greenhouse has been dismantled, and the plants inside have been transplanted outside, bringing with it another beautiful spring scene. Inside the enclosure, flowers of all colors vie for attention, their fragrance wafting in the air, and butterflies flutter about. Tiger Girl chases after butterflies in the garden, while the clear chirping of birds drifts in from outside. Ruyi looks up at the sky and sees two brightly colored kites chasing each other across the distant blue sky, seemingly alive. She listens intently, as if she can hear the joyful laughter of people beneath the kites…
Ruyi suddenly burst into tears.
The world outside is reviving, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, brimming with laughter and hope. But she is trapped in this small space, separated from her family and friends, unable to continue her studies, and deprived of freedom. Under the influence of hormones, she feels increasingly sad and cries alone amidst the bustling scenery of the garden.
She had little appetite for lunch and only ate half a bowl of rice before listlessly going upstairs.
After Zhou's attempts to comfort her failed, she became very worried and had no choice but to report the situation to Chen Yan.
Chen Yan is organizing a shareholders' meeting at headquarters to vote on whether to acquire an emerging internet company. Its founders are all computer science masters from prestigious universities. They are quick-witted and their products are ingenious, but they have been lukewarm because they are too niche. Chen Yan believes that they have huge market potential and only need capital to give them a boost so that they can shine.
The two founders were well aware that they were a rare commodity. Although they had been struggling to stay afloat and desperately needed funding, they offered very harsh conditions: they wanted to retain the company's decision-making power while demanding an exorbitant price.
Originally, buying a small internet company would be a piece of cake for a large group like Renxin. The key issue is that they are asking for an exorbitant price. The major shareholders are all shrewd businessmen who have been immersed in the business world for many years. Who would be willing to use the money for buying Australian lobsters to buy a small shrimp? Wouldn't that be like offering themselves up to be fools? Even if they have the money, they would lose face as businessmen.
Everyone was arguing and making their own arguments, and for a time no one could convince anyone else.
Just as Chen Yan's head was buzzing, his phone rang. He glanced at it impatiently, and everyone thought he was about to hang up. But then he paused, gestured for everyone to be quiet for a moment, and then answered the call.
He listened intently for a few moments with his lips tightly pressed together, then suddenly his expression softened, a gentle light appearing in his young, aloof eyes. He then got up and went outside.
