His Rui

Chapter 466 - Dont Meet Yi Junjie If Possible

Xi Ying stepped inside his and Li Rui's room.

When he turned around after closing the door, he saw Li Rui looking at him.

"What happened?"

Li Rui asked immediately while Xi Ying was startled.

"Why do you think that something happened?"

Don't tell him that now he was not even able to hide his complex emotions properly! The fact made him feel a little panicked.

So many things always continued to revolve inside her mind …things that he didn't want Li Rui to know of.

Like his possessiveness…like his wish that she would never love anyone as much as she would love him but it was just a wish because she didn't even love him in the first place.

So he was worried if she would get to know about them too one day.

Li Rui, on the other hand, silently stared at Xi Ying's face. His eyes were filled with confusion. She had never seen him like this before.

Never ever.

So how could she not know that something was wrong!

Xi Ying walked towards the bed.

He sat on the bed just in front of Li Rui and looked into her clean black eyes.

"I told Yi Junjie that you are pregnant with my child."

Li Rui surely looked surprised. However, this surprise was not because of what Xi Ying said. It was because she suddenly seemed to remember that she never told Yi Junjie about her being pregnant.

How could she not tell him!

From the moment she had turned eight, Li Rui remembered very clearly that she had been telling everything to her elder brother Yi Junjie.

Because on his birthday, she had been told by him that she could tell anything to him.

In the beginning, she had taken those words merely as words but with time, she let down her guard in front of Yi Junjie. Because she really needed someone who could listen to her and understand her fears of her clan being destructed one day.

Yi Junjie understood her and he even helped and supported her unconditionally when she told him that she wanted to do something to save our clan.

It was then they had started to form their own small army of shadow guards. Their own resources of earning some money that should be able to help them in the future even if they were exiled.

However, both of them never knew that what Zhao Wang Lei wanted from Li Clan was not exile but something else.

And this something else included the death of all members of the Li Clan.

Li Rui came out of her trance when she felt a pair of arms surrounding her waist. She was suddenly dragged closer to the warm body of Xi Ying as he embraced her tightly but gently.

"Rui, did I do something wrong?"

Xi Ying asked carefully.

Then the next moment he said hurriedly.

"If you think that I did wrong then you can scold me. Just don't stop speaking to me."

It was obvious that Xi Ying had been left terrified on seeing Li Rui not saying anything to him. In fact, he himself didn't appreciate what he did a few moments ago.

There was no need to tell Yi Junjie that Li Rui was pregnant but he did because he wanted Yi Junjie to know that Li Rui was his wife now. She was the mother of his children.

So he should not speak to him as if he had all the rights on Li Rui…as if it was only he who cared about her.

However, after those words left his mouth, Xi Ying regretted slightly.

He was staking a claim on Li Rui but he didn't need to do that. Even after knowing this, he still did it. Even after knowing that this news should be known to only a few people, he still told Yi Junjie about this matter just because of a little bit of insecurity and envy.

This was not good.

It indicated that his envy controlled his mind and it made him feel panicked as well as helpless.

"Rui…"

'Can you assure me once that you won't ever leave me?'

'Can you say once that you also love me even if that is a lie?'

'Can you tell me that you will still be there despite how much pain I have given you?'

Xi Ying had wanted to say many things but not a single word came out of his mouth.

He just hugged Li Rui tightly while Li Rui was totally confused by his actions. A moment later, she suddenly raised her arms and hugged Xi Ying back.

Her arms behind Xi Ying's back patted him lightly just like she is used to doing with her son whenever he suddenly hugs her.

Her lips were close to Xi Ying's ear so when she spoke, Xi Ying could feel her warm breath on his ears. A light tickling feeling was there when she spoke so softly.

"Ying, you did nothing wrong."

Those few words seemed to vanish all the confusion and panic from Xi Ying's heart.

He leaned back a little. His arms were still around Li Rui's waist as he stared into her eyes clean eyes. There was nothing in them except calmness but it showed that what she said was what she truly felt.

His finger caressed her cheek softly and he whispered in a very low voice.

"Rui…... if it is possible, can you not meet Yi Junjie in the future?"

Li Rui's eyes seemed to have cooled down suddenly and Xi Ying obviously felt it, however, he didn't take back his words.

He remembered how Yi Junjie had not said anything for the next few moments when he had told him about Li Rui being pregnant.

But when he composed himself, Yi Junjie had smiled genuinely and had congratulated him.

"This Lord is again going to become Uncle. Rui should have told me before about this."

It was at that time, Xi Ying was really shaken by Yi Junjie's words.

Yi Junjie's love was too selfless.

He wondered how he was able to see Li Rui with him(Xi Ying) when he loved Li Rui so much.

Xi Ying knew that he was not that kind of person.

He was selfish and selfless at the same time.

He could do anything to make Li Rui happy but he wanted her to stay by his side in exchange.

He wanted her to be happy beside him…not by some other man's side.

But it made him feel very scared that Li Rui would see one day just how his and Yi Junjie's love differed from each other and then that day …what if she suddenly regretted staying beside him.

Xi Ying's hold on Li Rui's tightened. He realized that she had not said anything and hence he knew that she must have not liked what he said just now.

It was quite obvious. His demand was ridiculous in her eyes. He knew it.

But he didn't want to hear her 'no'. So when Li Rui was about to open her mouth, he sealed their lips in a deep kiss.

He will just pretend as if this never happened.

He will pretend as if he never asked Li Rui not to meet Yi Junjie …as if she never looked reluctant to accept his wish.
