Chapter 139 Li Yuerui Reunited
As soon as she stepped across the threshold, before she could even speak, Li Yuerui, like a flower that had been parched for a long time and then met with rain, suddenly threw herself into his arms, her voice filled with surprise and shyness: "Husband, I've missed you so much, it hurts my heart."
Xiao Jinyan lowered his head and gently stroked her soft hair: "Madam, how did you know it was me?"
Li Yuerui raised her head, a sweet smile curving her lips: "Because I heard my husband's footsteps. That familiar rhythm was so captivating, it made my heart itch."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyan smiled and looked at her with doting eyes: "What a clever little devil. How can I not love you so much?"
As he spoke, he gently put his arm around Li Yuerui's waist, instantly closing the distance between them.
However, amidst this warm yet slightly ambiguous atmosphere, a subtle sense of regret was quietly creeping deep within Xiao Jinyan's heart. He knew that his tenderness and affection at this moment were merely a temporary escape from the unattainable love he felt for He Qiongying.
Li Yuerui was filled with indescribable emotions, and her eyes shone with a burning light: "Husband, I want it, give it to me quickly."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyan's eyes flashed with surprise and amusement, and he teased, "So thirsty?"
Li Yuerui smiled coquettishly, her eyes sparkling, and replied without hesitation, "Yes, it's thirst. Husband, please have pity on me."
Before she finished speaking, she was like a nimble swallow, instantly wrapping her arms around Xiao Jinyan's neck. Her warm breath brushed against his ear, carrying a hint of irresistible allure.
Xiao Jinyan's heartstrings were suddenly plucked, and he hugged Li Yuerui tightly with both hands. Their bodies were pressed together, as if the whole world had stopped.
"Watch how I deal with you, my little vixen."
Then, he bent down and kissed her deeply.
The kiss was passionate and lingering, like a flower blooming in spring, filled with endless longing and deep affection. Their breathing gradually quickened, each exchange of breath seeming to whisper of their hidden love. Guided by the kiss, they slowly moved toward the bed, their clothes scattering along the way like peach petals blown by the spring breeze, adding a touch of romance to the night.
Finally, the two fell onto the soft bed. Moonlight streamed through the window, bathing them in a silvery glow, illuminating this intimate moment. As their emotions deepened, words became superfluous; only their heartbeats and breaths mingled to create the most moving melody.
(The following ten thousand words are omitted.)
Afterwards, Li Yuerui nestled lazily in Xiao Jinyan's arms like a satisfied kitten, her fingers gently tracing his firm chest, a satisfied smile on her lips: "Tsk tsk, that really quenched my thirst."
Xiao Jinyan gently stroked her long hair, his eyes full of doting and tenderness: "Baby, why are you so thirsty this time?"
Li Yuerui raised her head, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes, yet also a touch of mischief: "Nonsense, how long has it been since you last came to see me? My heart feels like it's being scratched by cat claws, it's so itchy."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyan felt a surge of apology and tenderness. He hugged Li Yuerui tightly and promised, "Okay, from now on, no matter how busy I am, I will make time to come see you."
Li Yuerui parted her lips slightly, a haughty smile playing on her lips: "Hmph, that's more like it."
Before she finished speaking, she gently kissed Xiao Jinyan's angular cheek like a nimble kitten.
A warm smile bloomed on Xiao Jinyan's face. He gently held Li Yuerui's hand, his eyes sparkling with determination and tenderness: "By the way, my darling, there are two more distinguished guests at the manor this time. You must protect these two people as well as you would the Crown Princess."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuerui frowned slightly, her curiosity tinged with a hint of confusion: "Which two people could make my husband so concerned?"
Xiao Jinyan took a deep breath and slowly said, "Princess Xincai and her husband."
"What? Princess Xincai and her husband?" Li Yuerui's eyes widened in surprise, her voice involuntarily rising a few decibels. "Why have they also come to hide outside Jiankang City? No, living in the princess's mansion, enjoying wealth and luxury, isn't that good enough?"
Xiao Jinyan shook his head slightly, his eyes becoming deep and complex: "This is a long story. Recently, that villain Liu Kun has become incredibly audacious and seized Princess Xincai. Fortunately, I appeared in time and rescued the princess from her dire situation. However, after this ordeal, Princess Xincai and her husband can no longer live peacefully in Jiankang City. For their safety, I have no choice but to settle them here temporarily to avoid trouble."
Li Yuerui's eyes flashed with indignation. She asked incredulously, "You mean Princess Xincai, that incomparably noble, gentle and virtuous princess, isn't she Liu Kun's aunt? How dare Liu Kun not even spare his own aunt? This is simply outrageous!"
Xiao Jinyan sighed softly, his brows furrowed: "Well, Madam, there are so many strange things in this world, and Liu Kun's behavior is especially sinister."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuerui's anger intensified: "Hmph, Liu Kun is such a beast, he should be chopped up and fed to the fiercest wild dogs! Hmph, I'm afraid even those wild dogs would turn away in disgust at the smell of that filth!"
Xiao Jinyan gently patted Li Yuerui's back: "Madam, please calm down. Princess Xincai and her husband will surely be of great importance in the future. We must make careful plans to protect them and prevent them from falling into the hands of villains."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuerui's expression became firm: "Don't worry, my husband, I know what I'm doing. The safety of Princess Xincai and her husband is my responsibility, and I will certainly not fail in my mission."
Xiao Jinyan nodded slightly, seemingly quite satisfied with Li Yuerui's answer: "Are the people I've assigned to you enough?"
Li Yuerui smiled confidently: "Don't worry, my husband, we have enough manpower. I have a plan."
Upon hearing this, a hint of appreciation flashed in Xiao Jinyan's eyes. He softly promised, "Madam, if you can successfully complete this task, I will reward you handsomely when the time comes."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuerui felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She gently leaned against Xiao Jinyan's shoulder, her eyes sparkling with tenderness: "Husband, what will you reward me with?"
Xiao Jinyan looked at Li Yuerui with tender eyes: "Madam, whatever you want tonight, I will give you!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yuerui's lips curled into a sly smile: "Husband, what do you think?"
Before she finished speaking, she lifted one of her long, slender legs and gently placed it on Xiao Jinyan's waist, a gesture that was both alluring and playful. Then, her fingers lightly traced along Xiao Jinyan's resolute face, like a spring breeze rippling across a lake.
Xiao Jinyan felt the warmth and softness from his fingertips, and his heart fluttered. He smiled and reached out to gently stroke Li Yuerui's thigh. Her skin was as delicate as silk, as if it could drip water.
