A sound of pleasure
After returning from Liu Xiangluo's place, Cha Suxun straightened his clothes and hair before knocking on the door. The person inside was very cautious. After a moment's silence, he cautiously asked, "Who is it?"
"Ma'am, I'm back."
Perhaps because of Heqi's instructions yesterday, A'li did not open the door for him immediately, so Cha Suxun used his spiritual power to communicate with Heqi to ask him to open the door.
After the door opened, A'li stood at the door in a daze, wearing thin clothes. The light from outside shone into the dim room. Cha Suxun clearly saw that A'li's moist eyes were full of worry.
Cha Suxun opened his arms towards her and asked, "Are you still angry with me?"
Ah Li turned and left, her tone flat and distant: "I'm glad you're okay."
Slowly lowering her arms, Cha Suxun felt a wave of panic in her heart, unsure what to do. If she couldn't explain herself well, this barrier would remain in her heart for the rest of her life.
"Did you have a fight?"
Cha Suxun shook his head, then nodded. After bringing Heqi upstairs, he quietly explained what had happened last night and just now. He then asked, "What should I do? I don't want to have any estrangement between me and your sister, especially if it's caused by a misunderstanding. Over the years, she's finally gotten closer to me."
Seeing his dejected expression, He Qi said helplessly, "Given my sister's temperament, she must be sad and angry. I'm afraid she's not feeling any better than you right now. But if you don't explain, it's a big taboo. If you delay for too long, she will definitely distance herself from you. But now, she is the Heavenly God Yuanli. I don't know if she can still be considered my sister..."
Having said this, He Qi turned away, wiped the tears from his eyes, and suppressed the sadness in his heart caused by longing.
"How about I help erase her memory of last night? After her tribulation is over, it doesn't matter if she knows that you've always loved Li Wan. After all, everyone knows the relationship between my sister and you. Even if she didn't hear it last night, she will hear it from other immortals when she returns to heaven."
"No. It's precisely because she will regain her memory after her tribulation that I can't just give it a perfunctory solution. I've already expressed my love to her, and I can't let her misunderstand because she doesn't know the full story. After coming to this mortal world, I realized that love needs to be fought for, not just given up. Like I did before, she would only treat me as a brother or a playmate."
"You're just realizing it now? I tried to persuade you so earnestly before. If you had come to your senses earlier, you and your sister's babies would have been running around everywhere. But it's good now. My sister has a baby, and I'll soon be an uncle."
He Qi was immersed in the joy of becoming an uncle, his face full of smiles, and the longing in his eyes was inexplicably filled with some kindness. Cha Suxun wanted to say something several times but stopped himself, and finally chose to tell the truth to prevent He Qi from feeling sad as the longing continued.
"Heqi, A'li is not pregnant. She lied to get A'niang to agree to our marriage."
"What! Forget it, you are husband and wife, it will happen sooner or later, take your time, I have seen many couples in the mortal world get pregnant after more than one or two attempts."
"We just slept together, but never consummated our marriage."
Hearing this, He Qi looked puzzled and said, "But that's not what my sister said!"
Cha Suxun was equally shocked after hearing He Qi's words and asked, "She even told you about sleeping together?"
"I'm your cousin, so it's normal for us women to talk about our husbands. My sister also said she really wanted to have a child with you, but you seemed to be very resistant to intimacy with her. She said she saw you and I chatting happily at the inn that day, and wanted to ask me how she could bring us closer as husband and wife. My sister cares so much about our marriage, so this time, my mortal sister should like you very much. You've finally made it, brother-in-law."
"The memory of our shared sex in Ah Li's mind is just an illusion I gave her. I'm not sure what kind of existence I am in her heart, but I have seen the look in her eyes when she loves Wen Yici, and it is somewhat different from the way she looks at me. However, I am not greedy, I am already very satisfied."
"Why?"
"If I really slept with her, after her ordeal was over, she would probably hide from me for a long time because she wouldn't know how to face me. I won't say anymore. I'll go back to my room and comfort her. Let's think about it again. After all, now is not the best time to tell the truth."
After saying that, Cha Suxun went downstairs. Even though Ah Li was angry, she still left the door open for him. Ah Li was sitting on the bed in a daze, still refusing to pay attention to him. Cha Suxun sat down beside her and tugged at her sleeve pitifully, "My lady, give me some more time, I will definitely explain it to you clearly."
"No need to explain. Our marriage was forced by me. From the beginning, we weren't in love. I just couldn't accept that my husband had someone else in his heart. No wonder you always resisted sleeping with me."
"From the moment my true soul came into being, you are the only woman I have ever loved. Heaven and earth can bear witness to this, the sun and moon can testify to it. If I ever treat you with even a hint of false affection, I will be punished by heaven and earth, and my body and soul will be destroyed."
When A Xun said the last sentence, A Li always felt like he had said something like that before, but he just couldn't think of it clearly.
Taking her hand and caressing it gently, Cha Suxun begged, "Please don't divorce me, A-Li."
Following her gaze, Cha Suxun took the initiative to pull her hand to touch his belt, and guided her hand to slowly unbutton his clothes, revealing a large white chest and clear and obvious muscle lines.
"Stop looking at me so pitifully. I was deceived by your tone and eyes, as well as your request for love on my wedding night. I won't be fooled a second time."
It is undeniable that a look like Cha Suxun's is attractive no matter what.
"But your eyes tell me that you would be willing to have sex with me a second time because of this." Cha Suxun paused for a long time, looking at her blushing face, and then continued: "Of course."
"I don't."
Cha Suxun continued to pull her hand against his chest, letting her feel the love coming from his heartbeat. Just as she was about to pull her hand back, he quickly grabbed it tightly.
Resting his head on her shoulder and neck, Cha Suxun begged again, "Don't divorce me, please, please, A-Li. I can explain it. Believe me, I really don't like other women."
"But Ah Xun, Wanwan is real. This alone is enough to make me care so much that I can't accept it. In the four seas, eight wildernesses, and six realms, you have always been the only woman I love. This is what you said to the Wanwan in your heart that night, not to me. Which of your words should I believe? If you don't explain the truth, there's no need to say anything else. If you keep talking, I may not even want to continue to maintain the superficial respect. I can't accept sharing my husband with another woman, not in my heart. I know about that woman in town, but I didn't ask you, and now there's Wanwan. You really disappoint me."
Cha Suxun's body stiffened, his heart trembling with anxiety. He wanted to tell her right away, but he didn't know where to begin. The truth was simply too far-fetched for a mortal like her. But telling her would only do her more harm than good.
"Until the time you say comes, there's no need to try so hard to please me. I do hope you'll be more intimate with me, but I hope it's the love between husband and wife. I'm moved by your looks, your body, and even your sweet words, but I resist intimacy with the you I know now."
Cha Suxun didn't say anything else, but he consciously loosened his hand and turned his head away. He didn't know what to say, and he was afraid of saying the wrong thing and making things worse.
At night, both of them couldn't sleep, each worried about the same thing. Cha Suxun couldn't sleep, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His spirit body left his body and arrived at the top of the mountain, where he immediately summoned the demon world veteran Niao Ting.
When Niao Ting looked up and saw him, a look of disbelief still lingered on her face, and she hurriedly bowed. The master before her was the fiancé of the Demon Lord Li Wan, who had issued a decree that seeing him was like seeing her in person. She had only been summoned by him a few times, but when he did, it was always bad news. At her age, such a strong stimulus was a bit too much for her.
"Who will take over your position after you resign and return home? Just answer without mentioning the title or excessive formalities. I don't want to be exposed."
"It's my disciple, Lan Xu."
"But are you still doing things according to your old rules?"
"The new master has ordered that everything should be done according to the rules of the old master's time."
"Then why didn't we find anything unusual when we were patrolling the area? This has led to so many evil spirits wreaking havoc here! This climate has created such a situation, killing so many people! Send a search immediately. Eliminate all the evil spirits in this mountain and bring them back to the dungeon to await my punishment! Find out who the demon king is that governs this area. If anyone is aware of this or is colluding with them, kill them on the spot. Do this in secret, do not let any news leak out, and disguise yourself as a demon catcher when you capture them. By the way, rescue the people trapped in the village while you're at it."
"I obey your orders."
The next day, Cha Suxun left Hedong Village early with A'li and Heqi. When they came down from the mountain, it was almost evening. They had no choice but to return to the inn where they had stayed before. However, just as they entered the inn and were about to go upstairs, they ran into Qi Heng and his companion who were also coming down. Qi Heng's eyes were fixed on A'li.
Perhaps his gaze was too intense, making Ah Li feel uncomfortable, and she quickly hid behind Cha Suxun. Feeling her approach, Cha Suxun put his arm around her and quickly went upstairs.
Downstairs, Chu Xiao was furious at Qi Heng's disappointment, yet also felt sorry for him. "We've already met face to face, and you don't even have the guts to say a word to her? She looks at you like a stranger. If you don't fight for it, we'll really become strangers!" Chu Xiao said.
"She already has her own life. Since she's chosen to be a stranger, I shouldn't bother her. Besides, she's already married, and I can't ruin someone else's marriage. My life isn't just about love. Now that I've entered the government and presided over the Dali Temple, clearing the name of the innocent, giving justice to the victims, and protecting the people's well-being are more important than love."
