Chapter 41 - Are you not going to give me my wedding night, wife?
When Li Luxian entered the room, he saw Chen Feng sitting on the bed with a red face. His mother had just walked out. Li Luxian, aware of the teasing nature of his mother, concluded that she must have said something to her. He shook his head inwardly.
"Your mother knew", Chen Feng said quickly getting up.
"Zhang Xin noticed and informed me that she had some people after us all the time. My mother can’t just suppress her curious nature. I knew that she was not a danger to us so I let it be"
"Your grandfather? What did he say", Chen Feng asked impatiently.
Li Luxian smirked thinking about the time just a moment ago when he subjugated his grandfather with his ploy.
"He asked me to leave you"
"What!", Chen Feng’s eyes widened, "What did you say?"
Li Luxian laughed as he threw away a heart-shaped cushion from the couch and sat on it leisurely. Chen Feng would lie if she said she was not nervous. The atmosphere was very romantic and it was hard to ignore it. But anyway, she tried her best to behave as if everything was normal.
"I told my grandfather about that business investment that required my being married", Li Luxian had previously explained all to Chen Feng about it, "They have also added that ridiculous term of not being divorced in a period of one year under Wang family persuasion. Initially, the Wang family did it to ensure their daughter’s marital status once she had gotten married to me. But they didn’t expect at all that I’ll suddenly marry someone else instead. Now that I’m married to you legally, I can’t divorce you and the deal binds us for at least a year and they can’t do anything about it. Even grandfather had to step back on those grounds"
Chen Feng felt elated and her worry ended. Her husband was indeed very shrewd. Then her mind shifted to other matters.
"Your grandfather... He didn’t try to investigate the reason behind that term?"
"Yes, he did want to investigate the matter as to why was such ridiculous term added but if he was to do so, Wang family conspiracy would be disclosed"
"So I guess...."
"Yes. Wang Zhihao tried his best to dismiss the matter and stopped pressurizing my grandfather about the marriage matter. Because if this matter was investigated, their conspiracy would be disclosed. In the end, Wang Zhihao had to formally agree to our marriage to avoid the investigation. He stopped pressurizing my grandfather"
Chen Feng’s eyes brightened.
"You used their own move against them"
"That’s what I’m best at", Li Luxian winked. "Told you. I’ve a plan"
Chen Feng’s heart fluttered as she tried to mask her heated face. Indeed, he told her earlier that he had a plan. After a long pensive silence, Chen Feng said quietly.
"They wouldn’t just stop with this. Would they?"
Li Luxian sighed.
"Of course they wouldn’t but...", he stood up and neared Chen Feng. Grabbing her hand and staring into her chocolate brown eyes with great intensity, he said, "...as long as we are together, they can’t harm us"
Chen Feng looked at him and saw so much in his deep eyes-so much that it almost scared her. She didn’t want to get her hopes up. Because if she did, she was scared she would get hut in the end. Like the time she got hurt with Fu Jianguo. She quickly withdrew her hand. She was nervous.
They were alone. It was their wedding night and the room was decorated accordingly. She was scared he must be having expectations.
"Alright. Let me arrange the bed for you. I’ll sleep on the couch", she said in one breath and ran away from him.
Li Luxian chuckled as he slowly walked to her. She was clearing the bed to distract herself from his presence.
Suddenly she felt a pair of arms around her waist. She gasped as Li Luxian pulled her back and pushed her against the nearby wall. Her heart jumped into a hyperactive state almost instantly.
Chen Feng tried to get away. She had hardly moved a step to a side when suddenly Li Luxian placed his hand on the wall on her side and smiled at her mischievously. She tried to escape from the other side but he placed his hand, completely entrapping her. She couldn’t escape. She had no choice but to face him now.
"W-What are you doing?"
"What do you think I’m doing?", Li Luxian said in a flirty tune holding a husky edge in his voice as he leaned in to get closer to her. His face was inches away from her and
"Li Luxian"
"What?", he laughed lightly finding her nervous look cute, "Are you not going to give me my wedding night, wife?"
