Chapter 258 - The Wall That Finally Crumbled
"You wouldn't have stranded me had I been at your place, but you thought that I would?" Jiang Lanying tearfully glared at him. "Y-you...you shouldn't have married me if you didn't even trust me."
Jiang Li was at a loss for words. "I…"
"Be it five years, ten years or twenty years, I would never feel embarrassed of you. I would never feel that I am ashamed of you and I would definitely never think that I need another man to fulfill my desire for motherhood. It feels as if...as if you accused me of cheating in these eighteen months."
"I didn't!"
"Then what am I supposed to think of your words?" She demanded an answer.
Jiang Li couldn't retort.
"You even kept it all a secret. My husband had gone through such a terrible accident and as his wife, I knew nothing about it. I didn't even know that you were suffering all this time. Don't I have the right to know what is going on in your life? How would you have felt if I had kept you from this in your place? A-as husband and wife, we are supposed to share our worries, not suffer them all alone. You needlessly thought and feared that I would think less of you when I would have only supported you until my last breath. Li... couldn't you have trusted me just a tiny bit?"
'Jiang Li. Can you please trust her?'
Lihua's question rang in his ears and he stiffened. He took a sharp breath as uneasiness welled in his chest. The dark feelings in his gaze washed away that were replaced with sorrow and guilt.
"Lanying…"
He pulled her into his arms and buried his head in her neck. "I am sorry. Please forgive me."
She bit her lip and protested in his embrace, but he tightly hugged her even more. "No, don't. Don't leave me, Lanying…I was really afraid that you would get fed up with my problem because I saw how much you looked forward to a child. Lanying, I really love you…Please don't hate me."
His words struck a chord in her heart and his soft, mellow and pleading voice brought tears to her eyes.
Indeed, destiny was really cruel with Jiang Li. She was hurt by his distrust but then...she also admitted that it was hard to come out with a thing like this.
"Li. I think you weren't scared of me feeling embarrassed of you. It's that you felt embarrassed of yourself, isn't it?"
He froze.
"After all... fertility is a sensitive subject. Maybe, I would have felt that way too had it been me."
Jiang Lanying slowly raised her head and slowly cupped his cheeks in her palms. "If you had confessed everything to me, you wouldn't have had to worry about me or my love fading for you because I would have assured you every second that I will always stand by your side."
He stared at her and he remembered the first time he had met her at the banquet. Those eyes were still as beautiful as ever.
Her heart raced faster in her chest as she slowly tiptoed on her feet. She raised her chin and tenderly pressed her lips on his.
Jiang Li slowly widened his eyes and he stared at her unblinkingly in surprise. The sweet softness of her lips ran a shiver down his spine. He could feel the iciness in his heart melting down that kept him frozen to emotions. The wall that he had built to distance him from her breached and crumbled into pieces.
As she slowly parted away, a red tinge of blush appeared on her cheeks and she lowered her gaze. "You don't have to worry about me wanting for someone else. Your presence has already overwhelmed my heart to the brim that it has no space for anybody else to step in. Nobody can take your place in my life, Li."
As if a dam broke with water gushing out with all its force, Jiang Li grabbed the back of her head and kissed her so hard that she soon felt short of breath in just a second.
"Mmp…"
The hungry desire of eating his wife spread to every cell in his body. Her sweet words resounded in his ears and his eyes darkened by hearing her confession. He bit her lip hard until she gave him access to her mouth where he wasted no time in entangling his tongue inside and capturing her mouth. He immediately tore off her shirt, exposing her shoulders and chest.
She shivered and instinctively tried to hide herself but Jiang Li pinned her wrist on the wall, making her unable to do so.
"Mmnn…"
A soft moan escaped as his lips violently clashed upon hers. His hand wandered along the beautiful curves of her body that finally grabbed her breast.
"Mmphh!"
His gaze turned even more ferocious, feeling her trembling body in his arms. He chomped her ear lobe, making her shudder and he said, "Take responsibility for riling me up like this. Don't think that you can escape from me now. This beast is going to devour you whole."
**WARNING: MATURE CONTENT**
He picked her in his arms and pinned her on the bed as he towered upon her. He unhooked her bra, threw it away on the floor and hurriedly put her soft breast into his mouth. Jiang Lanying sharply gasped and clutched the pillow in her fists as the pleasure built in the pit of her stomach.
Her shivering hands tightly hung onto his neck. Jiang Li's kisses traveled from her lips to her neck and every part of her body that stroked a fire within them. After her first orgasm to prepare her for his penetration, he entered her in no time that arched her fair body upwards.
"Ah!"
The union sent sweet tremors within them as they were locked into each other's embrace. His thrusts increased their pace that matched her rhythm.
Jiang Li kissed her lips and whispered. "This is just the beginning and you are already crying. How will you survive the whole night?" He chuckled.
