Yan Luoxi had no way to deal with Li An; she turned her head and glanced at him. She met his eyes, which were as dark as obsidian, causing a shiver in her heart. She felt that those eyes were clear and bright, brimming with affection, as if all the stars had converged within them.
She felt bewitched by Li An; her body was about to betray her will, making her soften involuntarily before him, wanting without conscious effort to lean into his embrace.
Yan Luoxi used what little resolve she had left to control herself and forbade herself from doing something as foolish as throwing herself at Li An. She turned off the main light with the remote and sternly scolded him, "Go to sleep! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll hit you!" She thought that without the light, unable to see Li An's mesmerizing face, she could calm herself down.
"I'm not tired. Luoxi, I just want you to come and sleep with me. Luoxi, we can finally live together again!" Li An grinned slyly; he didn't understand Yan Luoxi's behavior and was still tirelessly making inappropriate requests of her.
Yan Luoxi's face turned red—she wasn’t sure if it was because of what Li An had said or because she had been imagining things. She closed her eyes, and since the room only had one bedside lamp on, Li An likely couldn't see her panic.
She didn't want to speak to Li An anymore; she urged him, "Go to sleep quickly! You're injured all over, what are you thinking about"
"This proves I’m determined despite my disabilities!" Li An was quite self-satisfied with this statement.
Yan Luoxi rolled her eyes. "What did the doctor just say He said that you suffered a concussion from your fall. Someone like you should have been made brain-damaged."
"Ah, why are you so mean If I become brain-damaged, won't you be worried about affecting future generations" Li An was being quite lewd in his response.
Yan Luoxi listened to Li An's tone and felt as if she had been transported back to their confrontational past. After struggling with him for so many years, she knew that people like Li An were not swayed by either softness or hardness; the only way to deal with him was to find a different approach.
Suddenly, something occurred to her and she curiously asked, "Second Brother, when you mentioned your next generation, I recalled that over these years, you've had quite a few girlfriends. Is the number of your offspring now enough to start a daycare center"
Li An was choked by Yan Luoxi's question and almost fainted.
Seeing that Li An hadn't responded for a long time, Yan Luoxi softly said, "This time you're stuck. Go to sleep."
Finally catching his breath, Li An murmured resentfully, "Yan Luoxi, your heart is really cold. Don't you fear making me pass out"
Yan Luoxi's thoughts were swirling. At this moment, she was thinking about the numerous dazzling women who had been around Li An in the past. A sense of discomfort began to brew within her happiness, and jealousy started to arise.
Before, she didn't care about Li An or who was in his life. Now that she loved him, just thinking about those women from his past made her uncomfortable.
"How am I being heartless I'm just stating the truth." Yan Luoxi said earnestly.
Li An was so sharp that he immediately sensed a hint of jealousy in the air. He happily laughed, "Yan Luoxi, can this be considered as you being jealous"
This didn't put Yan Luoxi in a good mood; she became even angrier upon hearing his question and rolled over to her back, ignoring him despite the pain.
Lian saw that Yan Luoxi was genuinely angry and felt a bit afraid. He hurried to explain, "I did have some girlfriends in the past, but it was just for fun; I never had any feelings for them..."
Yan Luoxi faced away from him, still silent.
"Luoxi, even today you don't believe my feelings for you Ever since we started dating, there has only been you in my heart. You unknowingly became deeply rooted within me and became a part of me...
These past years, you've become my instinct; you are my limbs and mind, my breath and heartbeat. When you're before my eyes, you are my entire world. When you're not around, I think about your voice, your smile, everything about you. You say that I’m obsessed with you, so how could I ever be good to other women"
Yan Luoxi remained calm on the surface but her heart was in turmoil. Lian, who was so arrogant, could actually speak such heartfelt words to her. Just how deep were his feelings for her that he would lower himself and do anything just to please her
Seeing Yan Luoxi still not speaking, Lian thought she was still angry and continued to assure her earnestly, "Really, Luoxi, you should believe me. I don't have any feelings for them; there are no children from those relationships. Do you think I'm that kind of person Just anyone can give birth to my child! Luoxi, I've already decided; only you could ever bear my child..."
Yan Luoxi lay still, her face turning even redder when Lian mentioned having a child with her. She spat out in frustration and embarrassment, "Who said anything about having your baby Don't get a swelled head!"
Lian breathed a heavy sigh of relief seeing that Yan Luoxi finally spoke up. “Young lady, you scared me half to death!”
"Afraid Then don’t do bad things in the future!"
"Okay, I won't do bad things with others anymore, just with you." Once the danger was over, Lian reverted to his slick and unscrupulous self.
Yan Luoxi was speechless. She decided to ignore Li An from now on, since he was the typical person who took advantage of situations.
Seeing that Yan Luoxi ignored him, Li An unwillingly called out, "Luoxi, Luoxi..." His tone seemed to carry a tenderness and plea she had never heard before.
Hearing his voice made her heart race. She sternly said, "If you dare to scream like that one more time, I'll immediately call my brother and tell him you're disturbing me. He will arrange for me to switch rooms."
"You stubborn brat, why are you so unromantic!" Li An gritted his teeth in anger but did not dare to talk nonsense with Yan Luoxi again. After a moment of silence, he cautiously asked, "Luoxi, does your wound still hurt"
Seeing that he was finally acting seriously, she answered truthfully, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
"Are you hungry"
"Not hungry." Yan Luoxi replied to Li An and then asked, "You're hungry"
"I'm not hungry, I just have pain all over my body. I want to talk with you," said Li An in a voice that sounded like a little kid.
Yan Luoxi let out a sigh, "It's not that I don't want to talk with you, but it's because you always say inappropriate things. If you can speak properly, naturally, I would be willing to talk with you."
"Did I really say anything improper We are husband and wife; whatever we say cannot be considered improper," Li An said, regaining his confidence as he saw that Yan Luoxi was talking to him again.motions in words. He felt a heavy weight in his heart, as if it had sunk into an unfathomably deep abyss, making him feel suffocated and unable to escape.The events of the previous night caught him of...
