Chapter 358: Li Yan’s Story and Habits
Listening to Li Yan’s story, Yue Yao didn’t need him to continue speaking to understand what he meant by holding back a little. He himself fought through the gleaming knives and axes, through the hail of bullets. Compared to her training, no matter how strict, it couldn’t replicate such an experience, thus the outcomes were naturally different.
Therefore, he wasn’t afraid of death and wouldn’t easily find himself in danger, whereas she was different. To ordinary people, she had endured a lot of tough training, making her unmatched by typical girls, but compared to Li Yan, she was like a flower raised in a greenhouse. This made Li Yan worry about her safety after she completed several missions. Naturally, most professional assassins come from a similar training background as hers, but later engage in live combat during missions, which also carries life-threatening risks.
Knowing all this, Yue Yao was even more grateful to Li Yan. However... the immersive feeling of being there was almost overwhelming her!
Even when Yue Yao was about to vomit from the intensity, she still didn’t shout to stop or ask Li Yan to cease his storytelling. Because from his rapid speech and detailed narrative, she could vaguely sense that this confession was very important to him. Intervening might inconvenience him.
She endured and endured... Yue Yao wanted to drink a cup of tea to calm down, but even looking at it made her feel it was like blood.
At this moment, she realized that Li Yan was holding her hand tighter and tighter, causing her hand to ache slightly. This diverted her attention a little, allowing her to step back from the immersion of listening to his story and observe Li Yan’s state from an unrelated perspective.
This glance made her gasp in surprise because Li Yan looked terrible (though she herself wasn’t much better), with sweat beads streaming from his forehead, speaking rapidly and growing more agitated, his mouth twitching his face to a slightly twisted appearance. Moreover, he hadn’t shaved for the past two days, making his face appear a bit eerie and intimidating.
Feeling a pang of sympathy, Yue Yao knew that others wouldn’t understand, but she was the one who could best relate to that feeling. She knew that Li Yan’s current discomfort couldn’t be compared to the pain in her hand.
She didn’t struggle, didn’t pull her hand away, didn’t interrupt him; instead, she stood up, standing before him, letting him continue to hold one hand tightly, while the other hand slowly reached out to him. Fortunately, it didn’t provoke his instinctive defensive reaction, and rested lightly on his head, then continued to stroke down his neck...
Yue Yao didn’t know how to make him feel better; it was simply an instinctive maternal care, like when babies are soothed during emotional upheaval through touch to make them feel better, calmer.
Her approach was not wrong, but unfortunately, she picked the wrong subject!
Li Yan wasn’t a baby; at this moment, he was more like a fierce beast that had lost most of its rationality! If she hadn’t approached without hostility and with extreme gentleness, she would have been attacked long ago!
When Yue Yao’s loving, tender hand gently caressed Li Yan’s neck, his expression seemed to ease slightly, and he spoke a bit slower. But what he was talking about, she couldn’t focus on anymore; she only wanted him to suffer less pain.
Suddenly, the situation changed!
Li Yan raised his head, with a gaze that felt unfamiliar and full of aggression to Yue Yao! Before she could react, he had grabbed her other hand and forcefully pulled her into his arms!
What is he going to do... Yue Yao shuddered all over, wrestling with conflicting emotions. Li Yan was clearly in an irrational state, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so rough with her. Looking at him, it seemed like he was about to take further action! What should she do?
She loved and admired Li Yan deeply, and regardless of his condition, she wouldn’t reject him. Therefore, even if Li Yan, in his irrational state, forcefully claimed her, she wouldn’t feel wronged or hurt. Instead, his current state made her willing to do anything to help, even sacrifice herself.
But... what about Zhang Yurong?
She was satisfied just to stay by their side, having never intended to compete with Zhang Yurong. Though Li Yan was surrounded by many women, Yue Yao understood that her identity was different. If she truly coupled with him—especially under these circumstances—Li Yan would definitely feel guilty and might even take her away from here! It was an outcome she anticipated but could not face.
Yue Yao’s dilemma didn’t affect the now frantic Li Yan. Although the stimulus was weaker than before, this time he almost narrated an entire phase, digging deeper; moreover... habits can be terrifying!
Accustomed feelings drove him towards the edge of losing control; the habitual solution made him act without hesitation!
In Li Yan’s eyes right now, before him was not the familiar Yue Yao, but merely a beauty about to be used for his relief. So, without a trace of pity, he pulled Yue Yao into his arms and immediately tightened his grip on her arm.
Yue Yao let out a muffled groan; the experience was not pleasant, his roughness and force directly made her feel squeezed painfully. However, this action prompted her to make a deep resolution!
His current state clearly showed he had lost rationality, merely acting on impulse, and wouldn’t recall precisely what happened afterward. They could simply claim nothing truly occurred, just a fantasy or dream of his. The most important thing now was stabilizing him, preventing any accidents, as further episodes of unconsciousness might lead to other after-effects.
Does his unconsciousness relate to this?
While questions arose in her mind, analyzing the situation was not advisable now. Yue Yao forced herself to set aside all thoughts, first managing immediate issues. She and Li Yan had some experience between them. To be direct, she also understood male and female matters, though remaining a virgin. Normal intercourse wouldn’t be problematic, as she was of age, but encountering Li Yan in such a state might cause a disastrous situation!
Having decided to sacrifice herself and fulfill him, there wasn’t a reason to be shy. Welcoming and accommodating him was necessary to minimize harm. Thus, Yue Yao leaned forward and attempted to kiss Li Yan.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Li Yan wasn’t viewing her as a close lover, but as someone for mere release... (To be continued, for more, please visit www.qidian.com, additional Chapters available, support the author, favor legitimate reading!)
