“There’s no need…” She shook her head repeatedly.
Lu Lixing chuckled. “Why not?”
“Baby’s hard to coax?”
“It’s okay,” Lu Lixing whispered in her ear, “I’ll only call you that when it’s just the two of us.”
“Baby…”
A warm breath flowed through her ear, making her feel itchy.
Ji Qingqing turned her head away, trying to avoid him.
“Baby, baby, baby…”
Ji Qingqing buried half of her face in the pillow, but Lu Lixing persisted, calling her nonstop. Her heart beat so fast, it felt like it would jump out of her chest.
She suddenly turned around, covering Lu Lixing’s mouth with one hand, not allowing him to say this embarrassing nickname again.
“Shut up! Don’t shout anymore!” Ji Qingqing was furious with embarrassment.
Lu Lixing gently bit the hand Ji Qingqing used to cover his mouth. Ji Qingqing softly let out a yelp and released her hand, looking at him with a mix of anger and annoyance.
Lu Lixing laughed.
For a moment, there was a comfortable silence. Only the sound of two people’s shallow breathing could be heard.
After a long time, Ji Qingqing said, “I’m so scared.”
“Scared of what?”
“I’m afraid that you don’t really like me. Maybe you don’t like me as much as you say and you just keep me around as a tool to keep yourself alive. And when you don’t need me anymore, you’ll throw me away.”
She tremblingly said, her words laced with fear, “It’s a lose-lose situation. I’m afraid I’ll lose and then you won’t need me, but I won’t be able to leave you… it’s ugly.”
Lu Lixing sighed deeply, turning to hold her in his arms. His voice was steady and strong.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you lose.”
Ji Qingqing bit her lip, still trembling. “I know, I haven’t lost.”
“If one day I leave you, it’ll only be because I’m dead. But don’t worry, when I left the hospital, I bought a grave for the both of us, so we can’t be separated.”
Ji Qingqing exasperatedly laughed through her tears and looked up at him with a glare.
The lamp’s light from the bedside was partially obscured by Lu Lixing. His shadow enveloped Ji Qingqing from within.
“So… the thing you said earlier about having a child.”
Ji Qingqing asked in return.”What?”
Lu Lixing’s words had a hint of a smile, “You said, we should have a child earlier.”
Ji Qingqing was surprised, then her fair complexion turned red. She made a small sound of agreement.
“How early is ‘earlier’?”
Ji Qingqing bit her lower lip, feeling a little bit uncomfortable. But under Lu Lixing’s questioning, she couldn’t help but reply, “Of course, the earlier the better.”
“Now?”
Ji Qingqing didn’t dare look at him.
Lu Lixing held her waist and pressed her onto the bed. Ji Qingqing was currently wearing a silk pajama that fit her perfectly, outlining her delicate figure.
In such a close distance, he could smell the yuzu fragrance from her body.
A faint and refreshing aroma emanated from her hair, shoulders, collarbone, and every inch of her milky white skin. Every inch of her body exuded fatal temptation and charm.
But it’s not good.
He couldn’t deceive her again.
Ji Qingqing deserves to know the truth and make her own decision.
Lu Lixing took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He calmed down for a moment and when he opened his eyes again, the fiery emotions from before had faded.
“Xiao A’s meaning of sharing your life with me isn’t what you think. It means that from now on, I will live and die together with you, understand?”
“Live and die together?”
He continued to explain, “That means, if you die one day, I’ll also die.”
Ji Qingqing was slightly startled. “That means, Xiao A’s proposal of sharing my life with you didn’t mean cutting my lifespan in half to share it with you?”
“Do you think you’re a discounted commodity?”
Ji Qingqing was startled by this sudden explanation.
I and Lu Lixing wouldn’t have to die early? We could watch our children grow up, get married, and have children? Does that mean we still really have a lot of time together?
Ji Qingqing excitedly asked, “Really?”
“Yes, really,” Lu Lixing said in a hoarse voice. “Now my life is in your hands. Do you still want to have a child with me earlier?”
Ji Qingqing placed her hands on Lu Lixing’s chest, looking into his eyes. They quietly looked at each other and it was like they could hear each other’s heartbeats.
“Mr. Lu, do you know that this is like driving without a license*? You’ll be fined for this.”
*T/N: I personally presume Ji Qingqing refers to them having intercourse outside of marriage since they aren’t legally married yet.
“So what?”
She teasingly replied, “Just pay the fine to me tomorrow.”
Ji Qingqing narrowed her eyes with pleasure. Her eyes slightly tilted upward as she smiled charmingly. She put her hands around Lu Lixing’s neck and kissed him.
Her kiss was like a spark that ignited an explosive fire between the two of them.
Ji Qingqing grabbed Lu Lixing’s hand which was sneakily touching her and asked a very foolish question. “Can you?”
Lu Lixing laughed and his hot breath spread on her neck and shoulders.
His desire was rapidly rising.
He gently bit Ji Qingqing’s earlobe, his voice was hoarse, and his body was burning with passion that was difficult to control.
“You’ll know later.”
The bedside lamp dimmed.
The window was open and the apricot-colored curtain was blowing high in the evening wind. The moon slowly emerged from the clouds and shone on the marble floor of the bedroom, casting a silver frost on the ground.
In the center of the room, the high-end silk sheets were in disarray on the big bed, and the only sound heard in the room was the delicate and soft moans and heavy breathing.
Unfortunately, at Lu Lixing’s strong request, the following bed scenes weren’t heard by Xiao A. But according to its memory, it heard four words before shutting down.
“Husband…”
“Hmm?”
“It hurts…”
