Chapter 217 – Until I Break Again
Yu Dong frowned she didn't expect Shen Li to say such a thing, she looked at him and asked " What do you mean? Won't the villagers start gossiping about us if I take him with me?"
Though Yu Dong and Fang Chi were engaged they were yet to get married. Yu Dong wasn't in a hurry to get married because she was currently broke and would rather like to have a decent amount piled up before she throw a marriage banquet, it could be said that she was fairly lucky because Grandma Fang was trying to find the most auspicious date for their marriage so that they will be blessed with a lot of children and live a life full of prosperity and happiness.
But every situation has a downside of its own though this delay in their marriage was giving her enough time to save a decent sum again, she couldn't meet Fang Chi much less take him on a date. Sometimes Yu Dong would curse the feudal mindset of the villagers, this was the reason so many mers were unhappy in their marriage they didn't even get a chance to know their future partner before they got married. If only they knew what kind of person they were marrying then maybe they wouldn't be suffering so much right now.
What mers? What weaker gender they all should have the right to choose their life partners.
Yu Dong didn't want to care about these stupid feudalistic thinking but Fang Chi certainly cared about them and wouldn't listen to her if she asked him to come on a date with her.
" The villagers will certainly talk but they will talk even more in case you don't take him to the town," said Shen Li as he added the rice in the pot once the water started steaming " You were too angry and didn't notice it back then but Fang Chi was wearing his old clothes, the one that is tattered and patched"
" But I gave him materials to make new clothes for himself" exclaimed Yu Dong with a frustrated scowl on her face as she tried to remember what Fang Chi was wearing and just as her memory jogged she realized that Shen Li was right. Fang Chi was indeed wearing the clothes that he used to wear, because she was angry at the incidents that happened to her family one after another, she couldn't pay attention to what Fang Chi was wearing but now that she remembered, she couldn't help but frown even harder.
Did she not give him enough clothing? Why was he not dressing up?
" I know you did" when Shen Li saw that Yu Dong was confused he smiled and knocked on her forehead with his spatula " But you have to think it from his perspective too. Fang Chi works in the fields with his grandmother and he likes gardening as you already know, but the clothes you gave him are not suitable for working in the fields so, of course, he wouldn't be wearing them."
" I can always buy more clothes for him even if he tears the new ones" muttered Yu Dong but she understood what Shen Li was saying, so she sighed and nodded " very well, I will go and ask him after we are done with breakfast."
"It's good that you understood what I was trying to say," said Shen Li with an amused glint in his eyes " Because I really don't want you chasing after the villagers in case they teased Fang Chi like the day before yesterday"
Yu Dong rolled her eyes and pecked on his cheek " Don't be so jealous, if someone teases you, then I will chase them too"
" I don't think I that after what happened anyone would dare to tease us with you by our side" joked Shen Li with a subtle hint of doting in his eyes as Yu Dong wrapped her arms around his waist and hugged him from the back.
She planted feather kisses on his neck as she murmured against his skin " damn right, no one gets to tease my husbands other than me"
Shen Li chuckled and shook his head before throwing his head back so that the back of his head was resting at Yu Dong's shoulder " I never paid attention to it before but you have grown a lot. When you first arrived here, you just reached up to my chest but now you are taller than me"
Yu Dong arched a brow and nipped at the shell of his ears " why you don't like me any more now that I am taller than you?"
Shen Li smiled lopsidedly as he shook his head in denial and turned around Yu Dong gave him enough space to do so but once he was fully facing her she once again locked her arms around on his waist and silently waited to see what he was trying to do. Shen Li lifted his arms and hooked them around Yu Dong's neck as he got on his tippy toes and pressed his lips against hers, at first Yu Dong was surprised when Shen Li took the initiative to kiss her but then she angled his chin better so that she was exploring every inch of his mouth. Their tongues overlapped and the kiss turned frantic as their teeth and tongue got entangled, smacking and sucking- the two of them pressed against each other.
Shen Li fumbled with the pot behind him as he somewhat shifted it off the stove, once he was done he once again hooked his arms around Yu Dong's neck deepening the kiss. Yu Dong who could sense his legs tremble because of being too long on his tippy toes, pulled him up by his waist before shifting him on the kitchen counter. The two remained in the same position until they ran out of breath. Yu Dong pulled back breaking the kiss, her chest heaving up and down as she gazed at Shen Li's flushed face " I like that you are taller now because I can do this now"
Yu Dong was surprised at what he said and had to think a little as to why he said that and when she realized what he meant, she laughed and wickedly nipped at his lower lip " you little tease, you better stop before I lose my control"
Shen Li's eyes turned hooded as he licked his lips " no one's awake yet, it's just you and me"
Yu Dong stared at him, Shen Li was looking at her invitingly and with his flushed cheeks and limpid eyes that were a bit teary after the wild kiss they shared just now, Yu Dong was certain that even a great general wouldn't be able to resist the temptation, she kicked the door of the kitchen shutting it close before shifting a heavy water vat behind it so that no one would be able to open the door. Only then did she turn to look at Shen Li and bit on his ear, whispering hotly " seductive foxes the lot of, you are going to suck me dry one day"
But instead of getting embarrassed, Shen Li just wrapped his legs around her waist and pulled her closer " who asked me to love you this much?" Fumbling with the buttons of her shirt he pried it open before cupping her left breast and leaving a wet trail on her neck as he skimmed his tongue on her tongue " Right now, all I can think about is you …. You have no idea how much I wanted you ever since we did it last time." His voice turned hoarse as he continued to speak " I swore to myself that I won't get jealous but last night when I heard you with Liu, I was… I was so jealous that I couldn't sleep at night. It was so frustrating, to have you so close but so far from me, last night was one of the hardest for me" he pulled down the shirt that was covering Yu Dong and threw it on the floor of the kitchen " The sound of your grunts and his moans nearly drove me crazy if it was before I wouldn't have paid attention to it but now it's you.. and I can't help but think why don't you belong to me alone? I can't snatch you from my brothers because that will be so selfish of me but -" he bit down on Yu Dong's neck hard enough to make her flinch before he soothingly licked the spot where he bit her " but you have to make it up to me Yu Dong, I am not strong enough to share you without shedding tears. I tried my best but I can't hold back anymore, I can't stop my heart from aching at the thought of you with someone else, I will always love my little brothers but I want you to love me too,"
He lifted his head and licked the shell of her ears making goosebumps break out all over on her skin " you can love them as much as you want and I won't stop you but just once in a while come to me and heal the pain that I feel in my chest every damn night when you are not with me" he pulled back and only then did Yu Dong see those tears that were filled in his eyes and felt her heartache, still in her arms, Shen Li leaned his head on her bosom " f*ck me Dong Dong, I won't ask for it again until I break once more but just for today f*ck the pain out of my body till the day I break again."
