Chapter 62 Step by step (2)
“Lady Chen, what did you want to do these past days?” Li Youde sat down at the table and looked with squinted eyes at Chen Hui. Of course, he felt that Chen Hui’s attitude was different since the trip to Tanmen Temple. Usually, if she was able to not get in his face, she wouldn’t come over, but recently, she came whenever she had a chance and said those kinds of weird things…He really wondered what kind of tricks she was brewing!
“This Lady Chen doesn’t want to do anything…,” Chen Hui lowered her head and said softly, “This Lady Chen only wants to help lord.”
“Help?” Li Youde humphed and the corner of his mouth turned upward, “Would anyone help like you? Being like this is throwing yourself into someone’s arms!”
Chen Hui lowered her head and said nothing. Her behavior was so obvious that Li Youde would naturally notice it. Then, what would he do after noticing?
She wasn’t afraid that he would really do something. Although he has a dark history of pinching her chest and pulling her clothes, but since then, he has been a gentleman and no longer seemed to be interested in touching her which naturally gave her confidence and courage.
From Li Youde’s point of view, Chen Hui’s silence was a tacit acquiescence. He had been intentionally avoiding her these few days, but the jittery in his heart grew. Can’t she be a well-behaved someone to pair food with who would let people love her dearly? Usually, accompany him during meals, talk to him and occasionally lend an ear to the anger he received from the emperor and give him some comforts; are these small requests so difficult for her?
Even the few nights in the palace, he would dream sometimes that she used a sad expression to say to him, “This Lady Chen is jealous that lord likes Lady Jiang and doesn’t like this Lady Chen.” The same tone and scene appeared over and over again in his dreams, making him very vexed.
Some words really wouldn’t withstand to be thought about. When he first heard it, iron seemed to have passed through his heart. However, after that joy, the cold reality would fiercely remind him that if it wasn’t because of his power and status who would treat him like this? That others were like that, he felt that it was human nature. Not to mention that he didn’t feel uncomfortable. On the contrast, he felt carefree. With the power he currently has, they all have to lie on their stomach in front of him. He was very proud of the current status he had achieved. However, when it came to Lady Chen, it was completely different. He felt extremely depressed. If it wasn’t because of his high authority, how would she say those things against her will?
Those are all lies! None of what this woman, Lady Chen, said is true! How could she be jealous? What is there to be jealous about? It was obviously something an ordinary woman couldn’t wait to avoid. She is great, saying it like it truly came from her heart. It was also like this in the past. She used to always put ‘I am lord’s woman’ on her lips. Such remarks were nothing more than means to fawn upon him. Where would there be an ounce of sincerity? But she said it so sincerely. Whoever heard it would always believe it at that moment.
“What? Did you admit it by not speaking? Li Youde sneered, “Do you know what you are doing?”
I know that I am playing with fire.
Chen Hui fitted such a sentence for her. Fortunately, Li Youde was not a handsome and high-powered businessman and wouldn’t say things like “Woman, you are playing with fire”. After all, he doesn’t have the tool to produce “fire” …
“You really want to recommend yourself as a pillow mat so much?” The melancholy in his chest burned Li Youde’s reasoning. He sneered, “Then, take off your clothes!”
Chen Hui was dumbstruck and looked blankly at Li Youde, “This…being too lewd during the day is not so good…”
Look, surely cowered.
The air pressuring Li Youde’s heart dropped a little and he raised his eyebrows coldly, “This is my territory. I can do whatever I want!”
Chen Hui said, “Since lord says that, this Lady Chen naturally has no opinion…”
She suddenly took a step forward and grabbed Li Youde’s belt, shocking Li Youde that he hurriedly grabbed her hand, “What are you doing?!”
“Taking off your clothes…,” Chen Hui looked up at him innocently.
Li Youde was almost flustered and exasperated, “Take yours off not mine!”
“But all need to be taken off…” Chen Hui said with a look of confusion.
“Take off your own!” Li Youde firmly grasped Chen Hui’s hand and kept her from moving.
Chen Hui thought for a while and said shyly, “How about this Lady Chen helps lord take off and lord helps this Lady Chen take off?”
Anyway, she has known since the bathroom incident that Li Youde was only a paper tiger. What was there for her to be afraid of? Isn’t he the timidest person?
Li Youde felt that one day he might be angered to death by her. He obviously wanted to punish her deliberately, but why did he end up being the one who rides a tiger and hard to get off?
- If you ride a tiger, it’s hard to get off: impossible to stop halfway.
How could there be such a shameless person?!
“Let go!” Li Youde glared at Chen Hui.
Chen Hui said, “Then…don’t take off?”
“Get out!” Li Youde said with a cold face.
At this time, the two were already very close, so close that Chen Hui could smell the faint scent of powder on Li Youde’s body, so close that she felt that his thin lips were also ruddy and delicious.
She had been trying to kiss him. Maybe by then, she could understand her heart. At this time, it turned out to be the best chance to kiss him.
Her breathing gradually deepened. Chen Hui swallowed. She stared at Li Youde’s lips for a long while, finally letting him go and backing away.
“Then lord, this Lady Chen will retire first.” She lowered her head and quickly retreated.
Li Youde froze for a while. He had the illusion that Lady Chen was going to kiss him the next moment…He twitched at the corner of his mouth. The arc was full of irony.
Tsk, how could that be possible?
After Chen Hui returned to her room, she lay down on the bed, lacking any image.
She said and thought well, but she cowered when it came to the moment to do it. She really couldn’t do it. Perhaps, she only doesn’t dislike Li Youde and had a favorable impression of him, but it hasn’t reached the degree of liking. Otherwise, why wouldn’t she even dare to kiss him?
