Chapter 195: Chapter 188 Who Should I Be Good to If Not You? (Combined into one part) _3
Sure! Here’s the translation of the text provided:
"That’s true. That child has become so introverted lately, keeping everything bottled up inside. Alright, Sisi, hurry up and eat! It’ll be unpleasant once it gets cold!"
Mrs. Su seemed to realize that she wouldn’t get much out of Li Si, so after speaking, she got up and went back to her room.
Li Si watched the elderly woman’s lonely figure disappear and felt a pang in her heart. The remaining half bowl of porridge became impossible to finish.
She decided not to eat anymore. Just then, the doorbell rang, and Li Si got up to answer the door.
Leng Mochen saw her slightly unhappy expression and asked with concern, "Sweetheart, what’s wrong?" freёnovelkiss.com
Li Si glanced at Mrs. Su’s tightly shut door and whispered, "Auntie was just asking me about Meng Meng’s feelings toward Long Wu—whether Meng Meng had mentioned anything to me!"
"And then?" Leng Mochen, seemingly understanding, gently touched her small face to comfort her.
"I feel so bittersweet inside! By the way, have you eaten yet? If not, want to have something to eat?" Li Si asked as she walked toward the dining table.
Leng Mochen noticed the leftover half bowl of porridge and joked deliberately, "You want me to eat your leftovers?"
"Of course not! Leftovers? You’re the little dog here!" She rolled her eyes at him playfully, feeling both embarrassed and amused. How could he think she’d ask him to eat her leftovers? There was still fresh, hot porridge in the pot.
And then came a jaw-dropping moment—Leng Mochen sat down at the dining table and picked up the half bowl of porridge.
"Oh no, stop!" She cried out in surprise, but Leng Mochen nonchalantly started eating.
Her heart grew warm. He was eating her leftover food. She wasn’t sure how others might feel, but to her, this was deeply touching. Apart from her dad, no one had ever done this for her.
She wasn’t necessarily hoping for others to do the same; it was just that, given Leng Mochen’s character, she hadn’t expected him to act so naturally—as if this was something he’d done countless times before.
If someone doesn’t love another wholeheartedly, they probably wouldn’t be able to do this. Then again, even with genuine love, some might still not do it out of distaste.
After eating elegantly, Leng Mochen pulled out a tissue to wipe his mouth and teased, "Feeling moved?"
"Mm!" She nodded earnestly, her eyes growing slightly red.
Leng Mochen glanced at Mrs. Su’s room and then stood up. "Let’s go to your room."
Once the door was closed, Li Si threw her arms around his waist excitedly and exclaimed, "Why are you so good to me?!"
"Silly girl, if I’m not good to you, who should I be good to, hmm?" Leng Mochen softly stroked her back.
Li Si buried herself in his scent, thinking about how lucky she was to have met a man who truly loved her.
"Does it still hurt?" His deep voice suddenly sounded from above her head.
"It’s much better!" Her face instantly grew warm, and the memory of that day flashed through her mind, making her too shy to meet his heated gaze.
"Shy?" He chuckled indulgently, cupping her small face in his hands. "Look at me!"
She met his gaze boldly, and reflecting in his eyes was the image of her own.
"I really want to devour you right now!" He said with a mischievous tone. Last night, he’d gone to bed very late, feeling utterly unaccustomed to being alone.
During those days in Bali, even though they only crossed the final boundary on the last night, every night before that, they had fallen asleep holding each other. He’d grown used to her soft, sweet presence in his arms, and the sudden emptiness of lying alone in a big bed left him sleepless.
"No! It really hurts!" Her face turned pale immediately, genuinely afraid of the pain. At the very least, she wanted to fully recover before facing such intimacy again.
"Alright, I’ll listen to you. But tonight, I want to hold you while I sleep!" He kissed her lips possessively.
When the kiss finally ended, she asked in a daze, "Why?"
"You little rascal, why do you think?! You’re the reason I couldn’t sleep all night!" He held her tightly in his arms, as if wanting to fuse her into his own body.
"I didn’t!" She protested weakly, lacking conviction. Truth be told, during those days in Bali, she went from disliking being held while she slept to loving that feeling. Last night, she’d fallen asleep hugging a large stuffed bear instead.
"Let’s head out first. We’ll discuss this tonight!" He feared that if it went on like this, he wouldn’t be able to resist pinning her down. Leaving quickly seemed the safest option.
At the Leng Family manor, Li Si handed out the gifts she’d brought for everyone. Mr. Leng Sr. even complimented her for being thoughtful, which made her feel awkwardly bashful.
Mrs. Leng noticed her son’s joyful demeanor upon returning and guessed that the two had enjoyed themselves thoroughly during their trip. Seeing them so happy warmed her heart.
Especially the thoughtful gifts—she received an exquisite wooden carving and dyed cloth, while Leng Qiankai received a painting. Leng Ning’s gifts were silver jewelry and essential oils.
Gifts were also prepared for Uncle Leng Qianhan’s family, but since they hadn’t visited today, the presents were left aside to be delivered later. (To be continued.
