Chapter 100 To turn from passive to active (1)
Li Youde’s mouth felt hot and numb. He was reluctant to let go of that beautiful feeling. At the same time, he felt a bit sullen about Chen Hui’s appearance which looked like everything was within her grasp. When Chen Hui reached for the bowl of medicine on the table, Li Youde picked up the bowl first, grabbed Chen Hui’s chin and fed her the medicine. If Chen Hui drank the medicine herself, she could do it at her own pace. But now it was different. She barely had time to swallow when he fed her. The brown liquid flowed out from the corner of her mouth, slipped down her slightly upturned neck and disappeared into her collar.
After feeding her the medicine in his mouth, Li Youde only paused for a little moment. Then, he took another gulp from the bowl and fed her again. After doing this four or five times, most of the bitter medicine entered Chen Hui’s stomach. Chen Hui’s eyes were dazed. She lowered her head against Li Youde’s chest and breathed deeply.
She laughed softly, “I can drink a hundred bowls of medicine like this.”
Li Youde didn’t say anything. He only silently agreed with her in his heart. After a while, he said, “Get up quickly. You are so heavy; I’m almost broken by you.”
After hearing that, Chen Hui wanted to laugh. You have nothing to be broken by me…
Although she thought that, Chen Hui still stood up. Just as she was about to take a few steps back, she heard Li Youde say, “Wait.”
Chen Hui stopped. Li Youde took out a handkerchief and said with a bit of dislike, “Really like a child. The medicine is everywhere. Here, wipe it!”
Chen Hui smiled nonchalantly. She approached him, bent a bit and said cutely, “Lord, can you wipe it for me? I can’t see or reach it.”
Li Youde looked at the porcelain and tender skin in front of his eyes. The traces of brown medicine were too dazzling. He didn’t refuse. He started from the corner of her mouth and went down bit by bit.
He thought, he probably wouldn’t be able to reject Lady Chen when she used such a cute tone to speak.
When Li Youde reached her collar, he was about to withdraw his hand, but he saw Chen Hui pull her collar down. He paused for a moment and then continued to wipe lower. When he got to the edge and saw that she was still pulling down, he hurriedly held her hand and said, “Alright, go back and have a change of clothes.”
Chen Hui stood up and said smoothly, “Alright lord, I will go back and change.”
After opening the door, Chen Hui saw Ah Da and Ah Er who were holding candied fruits and candies respectively. When the two returned and saw the door closed, they guessed that something that shouldn’t be known was happening inside. Hence, they waited quietly outside. Aside from making eyes, they didn’t even dare to whisper a word.
Chen Hui said, “You two bad guys. It was a waste of me for being so good to you normally. How dare you treat me like this?! Humph!”
She grabbed a handful of candied fruit with her left hand and a handful of candy with her right hand. She walked briskly in between the two of them and went towards her room. She called Xiao Tiao before she got there, “Xiao Tiao, come quickly and have some delicious candies!”
Ah Da and Ah Er walked into the main room with bitter faces. They put the things on the table, knelt and begged Li Youde to punish them.
Li Youde naturally heard what Chen Hui said when she went out. He scolded laughingly, “Look at you?! Don’t you know what kind of personality Lady Chen has? She will take care of you even when you did something wrong. Not to mention that you didn’t do anything wrong.”
Ah Er immediately said, “We are indeed too stupid. Lady Chen was just scaring us.”
Ah Da also agreed, “Lady Chen is the most kind-hearted.”
Li Youde warned with a cold face, “She is kind-hearted, but you can’t bully her because of this!”
“How would this little one dare,” Ah Er immediately expressed his loyalty, “This little one is as loyal to Lady Chen as this little one is to lord!”
“Alright, you can retreat,” Li Youde gestured with his hand.
Ah Er said, “Just now gentleman Huang said that the matter has been settled. Lord, rest assured.”
Li Youde nodded and said, “This Huang Renhou is dependable.”
He accepted Huang Renhou as his godson after he knew that he had taken liberties with Lady Chen. This Huang Renhou has connections with the three religions and the nine schools. Some matters are more convenient being handled by him. This was one of the reasons he accepted Huang Renhou as his godson. At that time, he didn’t think it was a big deal after he asked Huang Renhou about the matter of ‘taking liberties’ with Lady. So, he naturally didn’t take that matter seriously.
If it was now, not only will he not accept Huang Renhou as his godson, he might’ve tortured Huang Renhou. Now, seeing that he was still of some use and is respectful to Lady Chen, let’s turn the page over for now. This was still a trivial matter. What he was worried about was that Wen Jing’s whereabouts were still unknown. If that person reappears, will all of this be wiped out in an instant?
He turned his head and looked at the empty bowl. That beautiful face flashed in his mind. That ambiguous whispers and seductive smile suddenly filled his heart with a strong unwillingness to let her go. No one can take away what is his!
Li Youde didn’t stay for long in Li residence. After all, he had to serve by the emperor’s side. So, it was best for him to stay by the emperor’s side all the time so as not to miss any important matters.
Therefore, Chen Hui didn’t bother to take the medicine for the next few days. It was really too bitter with no one to feed her. In the past, when she didn’t like Li Youde, she didn’t think much of him leaving for a few days. But now, she felt like she missed him very much even if he left for only one day. But after all, Li Youde had official duties. It was impossible for him to keep her company all the time. So, she had to go out often and continue her design career. She hasn’t done it for two months. Her hands didn’t get unfamiliar. Even if all the clients had run away, she has to let them come back slowly.
This day, Chen Hui discussed with a former regular customer about the approximate style of the custom-made new clothes. When she came out of the store, she breathed a sigh of relief. The weather was chilly now. Fortunately, she was completely adorned. The hand heather that she held was very warm. She couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional when seeing the people hurrying on the street. It has been more than a half year since she time traveled. The season has changed from spring to winter and her state of mind has also changed. What would her parents say if she told them that she plans to live well with a eunuch? “Love conquers all”? or “We support all your decision”?
Chen Hui smiled. When she was about to go back inside, she saw a figure acting suspiciously flash by in front of her. The reason why she noticed her was because that person looked very familiar…It was Ziyu who she had long forgotten about.
It had to be said that Chen Hui was very glad that Ziyu chose to abandon her at the beginning. Otherwise, she might’ve not gotten such a good maid as Xiao Tiao midst of the mutual tormenting with Ziyu.
“Xiao Liu, I seemed to have seen Ziyu. Go over and see what she is doing,” Chen Hui directed the quick-witted Xiao Liu.
