Chapter 401 - Yi Junjie Came To Meet Xi Ying

Kissing Li Rui's lips gently again, Xi Ying thought that he could never get enough of this woman…her innocence, her calmness, and her strength, everything about her was so mesmerizing that he didn't wish to move his eyes away from her.
His eyes were dark with desire and love as he spoke his next words.
"I want to make love to you every night, every moment of the day. I want to hear your breathless sighs of pleasure."
He said while moving their joined hands on her abdomen.
"And I want you to bear my children."
Li Rui's lips parted slightly as she tried to breathe through her mouth. Her chest heaved up and down as she stared into Xi Ying's intense eyes.
Every word from his mouth…she could feel that he really meant it.
"I love you so much, Rui."
He spoke again.
And again she could speak only a few words in response shocked by this whole confession.
"But… I …"
'But I don't love you that way.' She had wanted to say.
Her emotions were clearly visible in her eyes. Xii Ying could read her like a book at this moment.
He finally understood why there was fear in her eyes. She was afraid that he would want the same from her.
He made her look in his eyes and said firmly.
"You don't need to."
"You are here …with me. It's enough for me."
With these words, he sealed her lips again. He didn't want her to see the pain in his eyes when he said those words.
Needless to say, Xi Ying was hurt. How could he not be!
He had loved only a single woman in his whole life so much and that woman didn't love him back. However, he could do nothing about it. He couldn't force her …never. He couldn't leave her.
The only thing he could do was love for both of them.
That night, Xi Ying poured all his love and feeling in that kiss.
The bittersweet kiss was interrupted this time by someone.
Xi Ying parted their lips instantly. He hugged Li Rui in his arms and stroked her waist gently knowing that she must be feeling embarrassed on being caught like this.
However, when she tried to push away because of the same embarrassment he didn't let her.
"Stay"
He whispered softly near her ear and turned to look at An Ping who was standing with his head lowered.
A sigh escaped from his lips. Did he perhaps lower down his guard so much in presence of Li Rui that he didn't feel the presence of his shadow guard?
Xi Ying's forehead had a deep frown and he seemed to be disappointed in himself. The circumstances in which his son and wife were in didn't allow him to lower down his guard even for a moment.
He made a note inside his mind that he will be careful in the future as he asked An Ping.
"What happened?"
An Ping raised his head at this moment. His eyes stayed at his master's face only and he never dared to look towards Li Rui who was in Xi Ying's arms as he said
"My Lord, there is someone who wishes to meet My Lord."
Xi Ying's frown went deeper.
What was An Ping's purpose in saying 'someone'? He obviously understood that it must be because Li Rui was also there.
However, hasn't he already said that Li Rui was equal to him in this Manor now. Thinking this, he looked at his shadow guard with disapproval and asked coldly.
"Who is this someone?"
An Ping still hesitated for a moment before he lowered his head and answered his master's question.
"It is Lord Yi, My Lord."
The disapproval towards An Ping instantly vanished from Xi Ying's eyes. He seemed to have understood why An Ping has not said anything about this 'someone' before.
If he knew that this someone was none other than Yi Junjie then he also would prefer that Li Rui doesn't come to know about this someone.
However, now she knew and he could feel her raising her head from his arms and look towards An Ping.
"Elder Brother is here?"
A whisper escaped from her lips. A whisper that was clearly audible to Xi Ying.
His jaw tightened unconsciously when he saw the brightness in Li Rui's clean black eyes. So Yi Junjie mattered to her that much.
However, the young prime minister knew very well just how observant his wife was. So he relaxed himself and tried to behave as he usually did.
"Invite Lord Yi to the Study room."
Xi Ying said as casually as he could.
He didn't want Li Rui to see the irritation and discomfort he was feeling after hearing Yi Junjie's name.
Yi Junjie bothered him a lot because he knew that Yi Junjie's feelings for Li Rui were more than that of a brother had towards his sister.
However, he also knew that Li Rui did know nothing about this and he preferred it this way only. She didn't even know that Yi Junjie had come to General Li with a marriage proposal four years ago after that night that was beautiful for him but perhaps not for her.
Perhaps General Li and Yi Junjie never really let her know about this matter.
And it was a very right thing.
He didn't want her to think about any other man at all…especially a man who had feelings for her.
So he had to behave normally.
"You want to accompany me?"
He asked gently.
Although Xi Ying already knew the answer, he wished very much that Li Rui refuse to accompany him this time. He would go alone and hear what Yi Junjie wanted to say.
However, when Li Rui nodded her head almost immediately, Xi Ying could only sigh bitterly.
"Let's go."
He held her hand quite firmly as they walked back to the study room.
Inside his heart, he wished silently that the next few moments would pass quickly.
