Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This was not the first time he had asked this question.
For Liao Shimai, the fact that Huangfu Lingyao was a ‘fool1 had already become ingrained in her mind. Even though she occasionally noticed some inconsistencies in his behavior, most of the time, she could rationalize it herself: he was not just a child. It was normal for him to show some signs of a grown man’s reactions.
She did not know why, but she felt a little sad that she had to answer this question several times. She asked, “Lingyao, do you not trust me anymore?”
Her heart ached not because he did not trust her, but because…
Why did he keep asking the same question over and over again?
Considering his age, his intelligence seemed to be stuck at around five years old, and it was understandable that he could not remember such things for long.
From a psychological point of view, he might be extremely insecure!
After all, Huangfu Lingyao had lost his mother at a young age and his father’s love, so there was no kinship to speak of. In his world, his heart must be very lonely.
Now that he had finally found someone he could trust and be attached to, he would probably be like a drowning man who had found his only driftwood. His possessiveness would be intense!
Thinking of this, her heart ached even more for him.
However, she had to help him get rid of this thought, which was why she asked him this.
Huangfu Lingyao was stunned. He pouted and said, “Of course I trust you, Wife, but I don’t trust the Crown Prince!”
Every time he mentioned the Crown Prince, he appeared indignant, as if there was some deep-seated grudge. Liao Shimai smiled and gently pinched his cheek as she replied, “The key is not about him, it’s about my attitude. I don’t like him, and 1 won’t give him a chance, that’s all.”
Huangfu Lingyao was speechless.
He opened his mouth, but he hesitated.
If he said it too explicitly, she would start suspecting him!
So, he could not say: You’re so small, yet you insist on appearing strong. I could pin you down with just one hand! If Huangfu He had the same intentions towards you, how could you possibly escape?
He could not say it, so he had to swallow the words for now, wearing a face full of grievance, his clear eyes looking at her with a hint of sadness.
For Liao Shimei, this move of his was practically a lethal technique!
Especially those mesmerizing eyelashes, resembling feather fans fluttering, it could completely drain her energy!
She chuckled and said to him, “Lower your head.”
Huangfu Lingyao did not understand, but he obediently lowered his head.
Because he was more than a head taller than her, in this situation, Liao Shimii needed to extend her arm, hook it around his neck, and press his head down. She tiptoed to reach his forehead, where she lightly planted a kiss.
It was a kiss without any sensuality, carrying encouragement and a touch of ‘I cherish you’.
However, this was just Liao Shimai’s intention; she had no idea that she was facing a man who was now awakened and harboring intense desires for her!
Ever since he started ‘eating meat’, Huangfu Lingyao always felt a certain thirst in his throat, and only by being close to her, being intimate with her, could he quench that thirst.
It was as if he was addicted. She was his antidote!
The more time they spent together, the more he realized that just kissing and hugging was not enough to satisfy his addiction!
He desired more!
Liao Shimai gave Huangfu Lingyao an encouraging kiss devoid of any romantic elements. However, to him, it felt like a parched traveler in the desert suddenly tasting a droplet of water, making him want to drink more!
So, without any hesitation, he embraced her waist, gently lifting her up, and pressed his lips onto hers, cutting off her breath!
