"Big sister... Brother Nian..."
The conversation in the kitchen was really too intense, and Tang Xiaocao couldn’t focus on her new toy in the living room.
Song Lili turned her head aside and closed her eyes briefly before she opened the kitchen door and looked at Tang Xiaocao, who appeared somewhat worried and alarmed. She forced a smile,
"I had some disputes with Brother Nian over certain things. Did it scare you?"
"Big sister... Is Brother Nian... Mr. President?"
Song Lili furrowed her brows.
Tang Xiaocao pointed towards the living room, "The news about Mr. President is on TV right now... He looks exactly like Brother Nian..."
Song Lili took a deep breath, not knowing what to say to Tang Xiaocao at that moment.
"Xiaocao, why don’t you play by yourself for a while? Brother Nian will come out and tell you later."
Wen Nian took Tang Xiaocao away.
Song Lili stood up. A long arm reached past her, closing the kitchen door again.
Song Lili turned around, "Kids have loose lips, how are you going to explain to—mmph!"
Wen Nian grabbed her waist, pinned her against the door, and his lips promptly descended! Sealing off all her words.
Song Lili trembled with anger, but even with her military training, she couldn’t escape Wen Nian’s hold!
Her voice faltered with annoyance.
Wen Nian opened his eyes, those beautiful eyes sparkled like amber... profound.
Song Lili couldn’t deny what she felt, so her struggle grew even fiercer!
"You’re crazy, Xiaocao is outside... mmph..."
"If you struggle even harder, he’ll be able to hear."
Song Lili’s eyes widened, fiercely staring at Wen Nian, "You’re threatening me!"
"A person’s character and attitude may change, but the body... doesn’t lie."
Song Lili whispered fiercely at him, his hand already slipped under her clothes from behind, the warmth of his palm pressing on her skin made her shiver!
"Wen, Wen Nian... don’t..."
"You say you are Lili... you recount our twenty years of acquaintance to me, yet you don’t want me to touch you... tell me, what have I done to make you detest me this much?"
His hand remained on her back, but there were no further movements.
His sturdy body, warmer than most, pressed tightly against her. He released her lips but captured her gaze...
"Is it just because I wasn’t with you on our wedding night? Lili, you can’t be that childish."
Was it her... misjudgment?
In his eyes... all she could see was confusion and hurt, avoidance and heartache.
"You distance yourself from me, deceive me, and even resent me. Don’t talk about love, I can no longer see any affection for me on your face. How can I believe you are my Lili?"
"When exactly did I do wrong... and when did it start? Hmm?"
"You can hit me or scold me, but how is it fair for you to dislike, resent, avoid, and alienate me unknowingly?"
Wen Nian’s other hand gripped Song Lili’s hand tightly, nearly crushing her knuckles.
