In their group gathering, Ming Zixi is always the loudest. He wraps one arm around Shao Junhe and the other around Li An, his clear voice tinged with gentle mockery. "My two precious darlings have finally returned to my embrace. Tonight I'm going to enjoy myself."
"Get lost," Li An can't stand Ming Zixi's mushiness. He punches him hard. Ming Zixi grunts and is about to retaliate, but Li An has already moved away.
Shao Junhe just smiles when he sees this.
Ming Zixi, unable to get a rise out of Li An, turns to Shao Junhe. "Ah well, it's still better with our little bean [nickname for Shao Junhe]. Tonight I'll sleep with little bean." He lifts Shao Junhe’s face, looking heartbroken. "Look at you, so skinny from not being around me these days. Truly heartbreaking."
"No wonder Li An told you to get lost. You should indeed," Shao Junhe can't take Ming Zixi's mushiness either and moves to sit beside Xin Dongni who’s been eagerly waiting for him. When she sees Shao Junhe sitting next to her, Xin Dongni happily wraps an arm around his.
"Brother, you've just escaped the tiger’s den only to enter a wolf’s lair," Sha Meizhuo looks down on Xin Dongni with contempt.
Xin Dongni is indignant but holds her tongue because everyone and Shao Junhe are present.
Shao Junhe already indulges his younger sister, so after not seeing her for a long time, he just feels affectionate and doesn’t say anything.
Li An sees Sha Meizhuo bullying Xin Dongni and can't help but glare at her. "Your words are truly disgusting. Everyone's eating, and you're talking about poop and pee. Do you want to stop people from eating"
Siao Meizhuo saw Li An finally speak up and didn't dare to cause any more trouble. She merely glared coldly at Xin Dongni with her eyes.
Yan Luoxi couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It seemed that Xin Dongni would have a tough time entering the Siao family's door, facing numerous challenges.
These men had been childhood friends. More and faster chapters can be found at [original source]. Li An and Siao Junhe also shared brother-like affection. In the past two years, due to Yan Luoxi, there was some estrangement between them. Both were particularly troubled by the possibility of losing this precious friendship. Now that they could finally put their differences aside, both felt very happy.
Li An and Siao Junhe drank a lot that night. Ming Zixi and others also consumed plenty. Several men gathered together in an enthusiastic conversation. Since Yan Luoxi was pregnant and easily tired, she instructed the maidservants to arrange guest rooms for her guests before returning to her room to sleep.
That night, Yan Luoxi slept very peacefully. Before Siao Junhe returned, she felt that the person she had most wronged in this life was Siao Junhe. No matter how good Li An treated her or how comfortable and content she was living, as long as Siao Junhe hadn't come back and was still wandering outside, she always felt uneasy.
Now everything was fine. Siao Junhe had returned home, without any reproach towards her and no rift with Li An. Moreover, there was a Xin Dongni who loved him so deeply by his side now.
The happiness and joy that she thought were lost forever and missed out on came back to him after all this time. Yan Luoxi felt happy and content for Siao Junhe.
Yan Luoxi fell asleep with a satisfied smile, but in the middle of the night, she found it slightly difficult to breathe. She moved a little and sensed that her side was heavy. Without thinking, she knew Li An had returned.
She was concerned about whether Li An had drunk too much and immediately struggled to open her eyes. Directly facing Li An's deep gaze into hers, she saw him staring blankly at her, not knowing how long he'd been on the floor before her.
"What are you doing Aren't you supposed to be sleeping instead of scaring me like this" Yan Luoxi reached out to touch Li An. His face was warm and his hair damp; it seemed he had taken a shower already.
"Luo Xi." Li An was overjoyed to see Yan Luoxi awake and immediately pounced on her like a child, kissing her nonstop. "I really have to thank fate for not separating us. You almost became Dou Zi's wife. If you had married him, I wouldn't be as carefree as he is; going around Australia and Africa would only make me feel better.
I can't. No matter how far away we are from each other, I won't be able to live without you. I will die… if it weren’t for you, I definitely would have died…”
"Spit, spit…" Yan Luoxi quickly covered Li An's mouth. "In the middle of the night, talking about death You say Meizhu speaks rudely, but your words are even more impolite…"
"Honey, what is rude about saying ‘I love you’ I love you for eternity; is that rude" Li An giggled and hugged Yan Luoxi.
Yan Luoxi cooperated gracefully, wrapping her arms around Li An's waist. With his naturally tall and well-proportioned figure, coupled with years of rigorous exercise giving him a sturdy build, Yan Luoxi liked being embraced by him, sensing the strength beneath his skin and feeling his heart beating passionately for her.
Li An tightened his grip slightly, moved his ankle, and immediately hooked Yan Luoxi's calf in one fluid motion. His lips brushed against Yan Luoxi’s ear intermittently. Comforted by Li An’s actions, she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and let him kiss her.
Seeing that Yan Luoxi did not resist, Li An was delighted and moved his hand towards hers under the quilt. Just as he was about to act on impulse, Yan Luoxi grasped his hand firmly beneath the covers. "Honey, don't you think your actions are a bit too much"
"Baby, I just miss you so much." Li An's voice sounded somewhat hoarse. "I want you. I'll be careful though. The doctor said that after three months everything will be fine. The fetus is already stable now. Honey, I'm a normal man..."
Yan Luoxi smiled bitterly and helplessly. "I know. It's exactly because I know how normal you are, and how much you want me, that today isn't possible."
"Ah." Li An was somewhat dumbfounded. "Baby, is this really the way to reject your husband"
"Of course. You drank too much tonight, and with so many days passing since then, you naturally wouldn't remember the limits." Yan Luoxi chuckled twice. "For the sake of the child's safety, you have to endure it."
Lǐ n was also very aware of his own condition. After drinking alcohol, he would become difficult to control and lose restraint. He was afraid that he might hurt the baby, so he had no choice but to let go of Yan Luoxi and lay down beside her with a long sigh.
Yan Luoxi gently held Lǐ n's hand and asked softly, "Did they all drink too much"
"Yes, more or less. But Míng Zixī didn't truly get drunk." After calming down his agitated emotions, Lǐ ān turned around once again to embrace Yan Luoxi.
"Where did they stay then" Yan Luoxi was somewhat curious.
"They're not far anyway. They all went back home. Míng Zixī stayed at his girlfriend's place."
"What about Xǐ Dōngní"
"Who exactly are you asking about then" After enduring for so long, Lǐ n finally couldn't hold it in and grumbled unhappily. "If you want to ask about someone, just ask directly. Isn’t this roundabout way exhausting"
“I wanted to know where Shào Jūnhè went then.” Yan Luoxi knew Lǐ n's character very well; once he got suspicious, the more you tried to explain or avoid the topic, the more he would think you were acting guilty and hiding something. slender fingers ran through her black hair like a comb, his fingertips' warmth touching her skin, making this moment feel as if it were a dream.Sun Liangliang looked at Li An, feeling so moved that s...
