Chapter 965: Chapter 968: All the Sweetness 4

Drifting and sinking, waves rising and falling.

The symphony of love didn’t stop until the second half of the night.

Nianyang was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep; the man carried her into the bathroom to clean her up, then they fell asleep in each other’s arms.

When she woke up again, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

Nianyang was woken up by hunger. As soon as she opened her eyes, her stomach was growling, and right on its heels came the feeling that her whole body had been run over by something.

She lay face‑down on the pillow; memories of last night’s lovemaking surged up and her whole body heated up. In her heart she cursed Li Tingyan hundreds of times.

"Nini, I didn’t eat the food Yin Tang made, I threw all of it away..."

"The stargazing thing was bullshit too, it was just that I was on duty and she was the one looking at the stars, but from beginning to end the only person on my mind was you."

The man’s words from last night broke into her mind.

The knot in Nianyang’s heart slowly dissolved.

She turned her head; on the space beside her, Li Tingyan’s figure was already gone.

Where did he go again?

Didn’t he say he’d stay with her anytime, anywhere?

Maybe all women have this problem: after tangling with their lover at night, they have to see the other person when they wake up to feel secure.

When they can’t see them, they instantly feel empty.

It just feels bad.

"Dammit, is this ’eat and deny, toss me aside once you’ve had your fill’?"

Nianyang muttered a couple of sulky complaints, lifted the quilt, and saw that her naked body was covered all over with marks.

They were way too suggestive; men really are all lower‑body dogs.

Nianyang dragged her tired body to wash up. In the mirror the girl had shed her innocence and become a woman; the childishness had faded from her brows and eyes, replaced by a hint of maturity and seduction, so alluring it was almost over the top.

If she walked out like this, anyone with eyes would know exactly what she did last night, right?

Nianyang gritted her teeth, opened her BB cream, and carefully covered every mark on the skin that would show.

Then she shuffled slowly out the door. After trying all kinds of high‑difficulty positions last night, her legs were like jelly; every step felt like she was floating.

Going downstairs, Nianyang saw that everyone was in the living room except Li Tingyan, and the way they looked at her had something extra in it.

"Yangyang, how come you’re up so early?"

Shang Wan walked over with a big smile and asked.

Nianyang, "..."

???

So early?

She glanced at the time—it was already one in the afternoon. This was still early?

She tugged at the corner of her lips; Nianyang suddenly didn’t know what to say.

Shang Wan pulled Nianyang over and sat her down at the dining table.

"You must be worn out from last night. I knew you’d be hungry, so I prepared lots of good food for you. Hurry and eat."

Nianyang had just taken a sip of bird’s nest soup, and at those words she sprayed it out with a puff, thunderstruck.

No way, does Auntie Li know too?

Come on, think about it: the two of you went back to your room at noon yesterday and didn’t come out until the afternoon—an unmarried man and woman, dry wood and raging fire; there’s no way you were in there just chatting about life, right?

"Hey, what’s wrong, Yangyang, did it go down the wrong pipe?"

Seeing Nianyang spray it out, Shang Wan hurriedly grabbed some tissues to wipe her.

Liu Yue glanced at Nianyang’s embarrassed face.

"Alright, Wan‑mei, let her eat properly, don’t say things like that."

After all, she’s just newly married—of course a little daughter‑in‑law is going to be shy!

[Let me explain, the Male Lead did NOT force the Female Lead. With the Female Lead’s current strength she absolutely could’ve pushed him away; the fact that she didn’t means she accepted it, okay? They’re husband and wife—are they supposed to never sleep together?

You’re all so against it, even calling it disgusting—fine, then I just won’t write any more sex scenes!

I’ll make the Male Lead and Female Lead completely Plato‑style from now on!

Or I’ll just kill off the Male Lead, how about that? That’s a pretty serious punishment, right?

Now...satisfied?
