Chapter 236: Chapter 237: Unforeseen Calamity
Li Tingyan obediently closed his eyes, helped Nianyang pull up her pants, and carried her to the hospital bed. When he lowered his head, he noticed the little girl was crying, tears streaming down her face, still sobbing.
Oh no!
Li Yama panicked immediately, clumsily wiping away her tears,
"Whatâs wrong, wifey? Itâs just a shot in the butt, does it hurt that much?"
Straight-Man Li Tingyanâcompletely baffled as to why this was worth crying over. Itâs just a shot in the butt, whatâs the difference from a mosquito bite?
Nianyang sniffled, grabbed his hand and bit it hard, her voice choked with sobs, "If you think it doesnât hurt, why donât you try it yourself? I already said I didnât want the shot, but you insisted. Iâm already feeling miserable, and now youâre making it worse. You donât care about me at all..."
Her tone was so aggrieved, as if Li Yama had really wronged her. Only in front of Li Tingyan could Nianyang show this delicate side of her.
But regarding his little wifeâs accusation, Li Yama felt utterly wronged. How could he not care about her? He practically wants to hold her in his heart, pampering her as much as possible, okay?
Nianyang continued crying nonstop, and Li Tingyan was paying for it, quickly hugging her while patting her back and gently coaxing her. The once-wild and cold-faced king was now like a grandson. Yet the more he coaxed, the harder his wife cried. In desperation, he bent down and sealed her lips with his.
Nianyang was immediately stunned, unable to cry anymore. Li Tingyanâs kiss came so unexpectedly, she dumbly widened her eyes, enduring his fervor.
Li Tingyan held her back, crushing her soft lips. The girlâs natural medicinal fragrance intoxicated him, and the kiss became increasingly passionate...
It had been nearly a month since he last separated from his wife. Thirty days felt like thirty years to him. He really, really missed her.
When the kiss ended, Nianyang rested on his shoulder, breathing lightly. Her pacified lips were rosy and moist, her once pale face now tinged with a peach blossom hue. She gently chided him, "Brother Li, why are you being improper again!"
Li Tingyan pressed his face against hers, his rough fingertip stroking her lips, his gaze intense, "Nini, I still like you this way the most. Seeing you without any liveliness just now really scared me."
Nianyangâs heart ached. The resentment from being forced to take the shot vanished embarrassingly, "Werenât you in Pingjing? How did you know something happened to me?"
Li Tingyan told her how he discovered Ni Jia had intercepted her letters, and how Fang Lan called him. Finally, he apologized in a low voice,
"Iâm sorry, Nini. If it werenât for my carelessness, Ni Jia wouldnât have had the chance to frame you. This whole ordeal is my faultâIâm not meticulous enough!"
Nianyang snorted lightly,
"This is definitely your fault, but your biggest mistake isnât being careless. Itâs that you attract too many romantic rivals for me. The reason Ni Jia is targeting me is because she likes you!"
Li Tingyanâs eyes darkened, saying somewhat aggrieved,
"I donât want to be liked by other women either. I only like you; I canât control what others think."
Nianyang pinched his face, distressed, "Itâs all because youâre too exceptional. Youâre handsome and capable, all the women want to cling to you."
Li Tingyan grabbed her hand, "But in this lifetime, Iâll only let you cling to me. I donât even glance at other women."
