Chapter 129: Senior Brother, I am speechless
Pei Lianxue stared at Feng Yudie’s face without expression, not even blinking. After a while, she finally spoke, “I just finished taking a shower. What are you doing here?”
Feng Yudie touched the back of her head and giggled, “Isn’t Li Feng going to take action? I’m here to report the news, hehe… By the way, I’m here to see you, Junior Sister Pei. I missed you.”
Pei Lianxue narrowed her eyes slightly, “Miss me?”
Feng Yudie responded, “No… We haven’t seen each other for a long time. You and Young Master Ye left first this afternoon, and I didn’t even have time to say hello to you.”
Pei Lianxue casually acknowledged and then directly took Ye Anping’s hand, asking, “Husband, I’m sleepy. Go back to sleep.”
Ye Anping felt something was off with his junior sister but couldn’t pinpoint it. He playfully grabbed her face, saying, “Don’t scare people anymore, you know?”
“I’m not scary,” she replied.
Ye Anping sighed, turning to Feng Yudie, “You can find a place to sleep by yourself. If the maid or the nurse asks, just say that Young Master Jiang invited you here. Don’t get the surname wrong.”
“No problem,” Feng Yudie agreed.
Later, Feng Yudie remembered something and said, “By the way, Junior Sister Pei… I just discussed it with Young Master Ye.”
Ye Anping was puzzled, “What?”
Feng Yudie explained, “I mean the thing I just mentioned. Junior sister Pei, how about Young Master Ye being your first husband and me being your second husband?”
Pei Lianxue didn’t understand and looked at Ye Anping for an explanation. Ye Anping was speechless, ignoring Feng Yudie’s words and leading his junior sister to the bedroom. After they disappeared around the corridor’s corner, Feng Yudie sighed with disappointment. Ye Anping wasn’t interested in being part of Junior Sister Pei’s harem with her.
“I thought this idea was quite good…”
Feng Yudie shrugged, looked at her wet Xuanxing Sect uniform, shivered, and then went to change clothes and rest in the house. After Ye Anping returned to the bedroom, he felt slightly downcast as he removed his outerwear and hung it on the coat rack. He then looked at his junior sister, whose hair was still damp, and led her to sit at the dressing table. From his storage bag, he took out a new towel.
“Come, let me help you dry your hair.”
“Um…”
Pei Lianxue nodded blankly, sitting upright obediently, and handed her thick long hair to Ye Anping. At the same time, she contemplated the meaning of Feng Yudie’s words about “big husband” and “second husband.”
After some thought, she looked at Ye Anping’s face in the bronze mirror on the dressing table:
“Husband…”
Before she could finish her question, Ye Anping interrupted, “Don’t ask about the first and second husbands. I can’t explain it. Ask the person who said that later.”
“…Oh.”
Pei Lianxue nodded and, after some contemplation, asked again, “So, husband, do you want to be my big husband?”
“Big husband?” Ye Anping furrowed his brows and asked, “What? Do you want a second husband?”
“Woo←→←→”
Pei Lianxue shook her head like a rattle, splattering water from her hair everywhere. Ye Anping, now soaked, quickly pressed her head with his hands:
“Don’t shake. It’s not dry yet.”
“Um…”
After Ye Anping used the towel to help her dry her hair, Pei Lianxue stood up, climbed onto the bed first, lay down, and then patted the bed board, urging Ye Anping to hurry up.
Bang bang bang——
Ye Anping sighed again, feeling incredibly helpless. He now felt that his junior sister needed to catch up on a lot of knowledge about relationships between men and women. It was all his fault. In the past, all his energy was focused on his junior sister’s training, neglecting essential health education courses.
Ye Anping went to the desk, extinguished the lantern used for illumination, then moved to the bed, lying next to his junior sister, and said, “Junior sister, after a few days when things settle down, remember to take that little… comic book to Senior Sister Xiao. Ask her to explain the content to you. If you don’t understand anything, keep asking her until you understand. Got it?”
“Um…”
Pei Lianxue nodded, turned sideways, and nestled into Ye Anping’s embrace, hugging him.
“Hug.”
Ye Anping took a breath, pulled up the quilt to cover her, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, “Why do I feel like you’re getting increasingly coquettish as you grow older?”
“Is it not okay?” Ye Anping was puzzled and replied, “Not that it’s not okay, but I always feel like you’re still a little girl who hasn’t grown up.”
Pei Lianxue raised her head slightly, locking eyes with Ye Anping. “I’ve already come of age,” she said.
“But to Senior Brother, it doesn’t feel that way. It’s like you’re still a young girl, just like Ahting’s age,” Ye Anping remarked.
“Oh,” Pei Lianxue pouted, slightly arching her body. She gently kicked Ye Anping’s leg with her foot as if complaining, leaving him bemused.
“Junior sister, good night,” Ye Anping said.
“Good night,” Pei Lianxue replied softly. She pulled the quilt up a bit, covered her nose, and touched her belly.
Despite having been in the “bridal chamber” with her “husband” for several months, why hadn’t they conceived yet? The elders of the Hundred Lotus Sect had mentioned that a baby usually comes within two to three months of marriage. Was her husband infertile, or was she unable to conceive? Or perhaps, were their embraces not tight enough?
Pei Lianxue pondered momentarily, then decisively tightened her grip around Ye Anping’s waist, snuggling into his arms. Suddenly, Ye Anping, who had closed his eyes, felt the pressure on his waist and opened his eyes abruptly.
“Hiss—”
Click—
Hearing the spine’s protest, Ye Anping held his breath and waited for a moment, then lifted the quilt and looked at his junior sister in his arms, shaking his head helplessly. Tomorrow morning, he would deal with it. For now, let Junior sister strangle him to her heart’s content. As long as it couldn’t kill him, it could be considered exercise. After all, who could resist his beloved junior sister’s penchant for strangling him?
