"A little scratch, and you get this upset, even promising to stay with me for a lifetime. Is there a woman more foolish than you?" Yu Longting pinched my wrist, lifted one of my arms, then carefully pressed me onto the bed and sealed my lips with a kiss.
Flushed with shame, the free hand of mine went to pinch the back of his neck, "Let go, this position is so weird, did you hear me?!"
"I got injured because of you, and can't I even choose the position I want?" Yu Longting's kisses became incredibly restrained as he quietly bent his knees, slightly suspending his body.
My hand moved from the back of his neck to his belt, "Your injury isn't light. If it were just a minor wound, you could easily conceal those scorch marks with your Spiritual Power."
"Su Wan, are you offering yourself willingly out of guilt?" Yu Longting narrowed his eyes slightly, sounding a bit chillingly cold.
I was startled, a bit intimidated and uncertain as I looked at him, "I thought you... might... want..."
My hand honestly moved away from his belt and tucked itself behind my back.
"You've just recovered from internal injuries, and the wounds on your palm are deep enough to see bone. Do you think I would lay a hand on you in such condition?"
The fierce glint in Yu Longting's eyes was almost as terrifying as if he was about to flay me alive, and his voice was very grave, "Su Wan, is that the image you have of me in your heart?"
"It's not like that, I didn't mean that, you hold such a lofty image in my heart."
I looked at Yu Longting innocently, biting my lip.
Attempting to get through this by being cute.
Yu Longting glowered at me, initially fierce.
Gradually, the ruthless aura around him uncontrollably faded, replaced by a touch of warmth.
Eventually, he couldn't hold back his laughter, his body heavily leaning onto me, "Wife, you're cheating, using your charms on me."
"Just say... if it works or not," I proudly inquired.
Yu Longting smiled warmly, "It works, wife. Did Dumpling just... come out of your belly again?"
"Dumpling has his own ideas. Just now... Lin Huan was in danger, and he directly bounced out... to save Lin Huan." I found that it wasn't simply a matter of not fearing Dumpling or accepting him; I was wholeheartedly grateful that Yu Longting brought Dumpling into my life.
If it wasn't for such a great father like Yu Longting, there wouldn't be such a wonderful baby like Dumpling.
Yu Longting's laughter was crystalline as he nibbled my earlobe and lay on his side next to me, holding me, "He got a bit hurt, so you might need to sleep a while to help him recover his vital energy together with you."
"Oh, then can you keep holding me while we sleep?" My fingers circled on my stomach, and I didn't even know why, but I just wanted to spend more time with Yu Longting.
Even if I knew I was being wilful, I knew he would indulge me.
So, I shamelessly made the request.
Yu Longting held my arms tightly, "A dream I couldn't even pray for has finally come true. How could I possibly refuse? Even if the house were on fire, your husband would hold on to you and not let go."
"Yu Longting, I want you to sing for me and Dumpling," I demanded more willfully.
Yu Longting was close to desperation, "I can't sing, wife, don't get too carried away."
"Oh, I guess I was wrong then." I lowered my head and admitted my mistake.
Yu Longting, caught by my feigned concession, was at his wit's end, "Twinkle, twinkle, little star..."
This guy, his singing was really...
Off-key in every note.
But leveraging the advantage of his voice, it turned out to be quite pleasant...
I listened and fell asleep. After a long time when I woke up, I felt cold beside me. Just as I was about to open my eyes, they were covered by the Snake Tail with scales, "Wanwan, don't open your eyes, Iā¦ am very frightening right now..."
