Chapter 186: Chapter 186 Sharing the Same Pillow
"Oh, what are you doing? Be careful!"
Watching Liu Zheng suddenly tumble in, Li Yanling was completely startled.
Not only that, she was also very worried about possibly being overheard by others.
How embarrassing it would be if word got out.
Unexpectedly, his movements were very quick, tumbling in and then immediately hugging the woman’s waist.
Liu Zheng looked at her with a beaming smile, but it quickly faded as he noticed something was amiss with her.
"Why are there still tear stains on your face? What exactly happened? What’s the matter?"
Hearing this, Li Yanling felt somewhat embarrassed and looked away.
She had not anticipated that Liu Zheng would notice.
At that moment, her heart was indeed very heavy.
"It’s nothing, nothing at all."
She hurriedly said these words, attempting to hide her unhappiness.
But Liu Zheng was not such a clueless man, and he could naturally see that something was seriously bothering her.
Then he raised his hand, gently touched her chin, and spoke with a pained look on his face.
"What’s wrong? What exactly is the matter? Tell me."
After hearing these words, Li Yanling could no longer hold back.
Initially, she had thought that she just needed to feel upset for a while, that sleeping on it would make her feel much better, and that she might not care too much about these matters the next day.
But unexpectedly, at this moment, Liu Zheng appeared.
In his presence, she couldn’t hide any emotion, and all her sadness was released at that time.
She naturally fell into Liu Zheng’s arms, speaking in a delicate voice.
"The elders at home have never had a good impression of me, I really don’t know how to change how they see me, and my son doesn’t bond with me either, I don’t know if things can ever get better."
She indeed felt very miserable.
After all she had invested in this family, the time and effort spent, she never expected such an outcome.
Most likely anyone in her place would struggle to easily accept this.
After hearing this, Liu Zheng finally understood what was troubling her.
He raised his hand to stroke her hair and then said gently.
"It’s okay, as long as you follow the method I suggested, you can definitely solve all this in a short time, don’t worry."
At the moment, he also hoped that Li Yanling wouldn’t worry too much because of this.
Moreover, he had already shared a solution with her, and as long as she followed his advice, there shouldn’t be any problems.
And in that moment, Li Yanling was wearing a thin, short, and translucent nightgown.
It indeed made Liu Zheng’s thoughts stray from simply comforting her.
Not only that, her dress was perilously short, seemingly covering just up to the thighs.
Liu Zheng’s hand naturally rested on her pale thighs.
Then he gently patted and said.
"Alright, alright, my beauty, don’t be angry anymore. Seeing you cry really makes my heart itch, it’s so hard for me too."
When he said this, the person in front of him seemed to find a bit of comfort.
"Having you by my side, I feel much better now, I really want to thank you very much."
After hearing this, however, he simply shook his head and said.
"All right, all right, no worries. I should be there to keep you company anyway. You’ve indeed had a tough time lately, and you’ve truly put in a lot of effort managing these matters."
"But now that I’m here with you, don’t be too upset. Night has fallen; let’s get a good night’s sleep."
He couldn’t afford to say much more. He also wanted to focus on what he was supposed to do.
When Li Yanling heard this, she found it somewhat incredible. She had never imagined that he would choose to sleep at this time.
She slightly widened her eyes and looked at Liu Zheng before speaking.
"Ah, are you not going back? Are you going to sleep here?"
Liu Zheng, of course, nodded with a smile.
"Of course, now that I’ve come here recently, would you really have the heart to send me back alone so late at night?"
But Li Yanling was very worried. If they were found out, it would be disastrous.
She had never thought Liu Zheng would be so bold as to sneak into her house in the middle of the night.
And even want to sleep with her, no less.
During the day, if he wanted to leave, with all the coming and going of people, he would certainly be discovered.
So, at this moment, Li Yanling temporarily forgot her recent pain and sorrow, raised her hand to gently wipe the tears from the corner of her eye, and then spoke.
"This doesn’t seem proper. If we get discovered early tomorrow, it would be terrible, and during the day, there are even more neighbors coming and going—it’s really not good."
She immediately looked to one side and thought seriously about this problem.
Honestly, with Liu Zheng keeping her company, she could indeed be much happier, but this wasn’t something she could decide on a whim.
Moreover, the place she lived could be considered a busy area.
If they were found out, everything would become even more terrifying.
However, the man in front of her didn’t seem to worry much after hearing her concerns.
"Oh, don’t worry, I will leave as soon as it’s almost dawn. Don’t worry about me; I won’t let you get into any trouble."
"I’ll be careful then, and they won’t discover me."
Liu Zheng’s hands were already getting restless, wandering all over the woman’s body.
Li Yanling felt somewhat restless and hard to contain under his touch.
Upon further thought, if he were to leave just before dawn, it shouldn’t really cause any problems.
And having his company at this moment was something she truly desired.
Not to mention, after all that had happened, only Liu Zheng had been willing to stand unwaveringly behind her to offer his support; no one else had.
So she was truly very grateful to him.
She hesitated for a while, but eventually nodded her agreement.
"Well... okay then, but you have to be very careful. Don’t get caught, please."
Liu Zheng immediately nodded and agreed.
He had thought that Li Yanling might refuse him and that no matter what he said, she might not agree.
But to his surprise, Li Yanling agreed so quickly, and he was indeed very happy.
It seemed it wasn’t as difficult as he had imagined.
