CHAPTER 370

"I thought I hurt you," Li Jing voiced out her thoughts. Never in her life did she want to do anything that would hurt him again. She cherished him so dearly.

And as someone who had been hurt before, she knew just how it felt to be hurt by the ones you love.

"You could never hurt me, love. Just stay still and hug me like that."

"Hmm." She nodded her head a bit against his back as though he could see her. Suddenly a thought came into her mind and she spoke again, asking him yet another question. "Shouldn't I hug you from the front?"

"No. I like it this way. Just stay like this for me, love." After that answer, Li Jing did not ask him any question and stayed still.

Instead, she moved closer to him as though she wanted to enter him and hugged him tighter, further worsening his situation.

He let out a soft sigh again and closed his eyes, trying his best to control his thoughts so as to let his lower member go back to sleep.

But with the feel of her soft breasts and the warmth emanating from her body, Ye Cheng was finding it difficult to do.

'Focus! Focus, Ye Cheng. You can do it, drown every thought out, think of something else. Keep your thoughts clean. That's it, you can do it.' He continued to chant in his mind for what seemed to age and after a few minutes, he was completely back to normal.

He let out a deep breath once more, now that his erection had gone down. He held her small hands and pried them open then turned around quickly before she could protest and hugged her well.

"Better?" His voice, although cool and calm had a certain warmth and cold in it. She did not know how he did it, perhaps his coldness sipped through it but she could only feel the warmth.

"Yes." Resting her head on his shoulders, Li Jing let her left hand move on his chest and draw circles and God knows what else on it.

He smiled at her. He understood she was enjoying herself and wanting to do things she wished she had done a while ago.

And as much as that was exciting, Ye Cheng could not deny the fact that they needed to rest or lie down. He was also thinking about her. She had not yet rested since she came. Her head must be aching from all of their argument and her crying.

'Crying!'

Like a bell in his head, he recalled that he had made her cry. He moved his left shoulder to get her attention and when she raised her head, he was sure her tears had dried up but he wanted to still wipe them away.

Using his free hand, he brought it up to her face and cleaned the tear mark on them lightly. "I promise you on this day before our matrimonial bed and swear it on our rings and heart, as long as I live, Li Jing, I would never make you cry again. I want to see you smiling every day and be filled with joy."

Just hearing him make such a promise to her made Li Jing's heart swell up with joy and her heart mimicked it, showing her smile on her face. Even as she smiled it still wasn't enough before Ye Cheng could say anything anymore, Li Jing's face was already full of tears.

He was shocked beyond compare. He never said that to make her cry but why was she crying. He soon understood when her smiles never dimmed but shone the more.

She was shedding tears of joy.

"Thank you. I am happy, ignore the tears. I hope tears of joy are allowed because I want to cry them on the day of our honeymoon and on the day of my childbirth especially after seeing my child and holding him or her in my arms."

"Yeah, they are very much allowed." Now he had the opportunity of actually wiping her tears away and he did just that, then pecks her nose and kissed her on her lips.

"Come, love. You need to shower. You must be very tired."

"Yeah, but I also need to prepare your dinner. I asked the girls to wait for me."

"Forget dinner, if you want I can order food for you."

"But I thought they cooked and you refused to eat?" Li Jing asked him. She was like, why waste money ordering food when there is food at home?

If he wanted to go out it was a different thing entirely but no, he wanted to order food. How would the maids feel?

"Yes but I want to want your own cooking, not theirs."

"Isn't it the same as ordering food outside because I didn't cook it?"

"No, it is not because the food I am ordering is not just any food. It is from the number one top-notch restaurant in the city. The owner is a friend of mine. He can make an exception for me on such short notice."

"Ahhh… I see."

"Yes. In fact change of plans. Go freshen up, we are going out. I would ask the maids to all go to bed early and they can enjoy the meal instead."

"Alright."

Even after saying alright Li Jing's hands were still wrapped around his waist, making him wonder if she heard him at all or she was just absent-minded.

"Li Jing," he called her name, less calmly than before, startling her in the process."

"Yes?"

"Won't you go and take your bath or you want me to come to bathe you or take a bath with you?"

"What? No." She immediately pulled away from him and wrapped her hands on her body, in a protective manner.

"What is what?" Ye Cheng asked her.

"No, stay, I would go and take a bath myself."

"Tsk, I am your husband already Li Jing. Soon I would be seeing all of you and you cannot hide any part of you from me."

"No. It takes process. You cannot just jump from kissing to seeing me naked."
