Chapter 734: I’ll Love You as Long as You Are Lan’er
When he heard the helplessness in her tone, Si Mobai smiled and said, “Fortunately, I fell for you when you were at your ugliest. Otherwise, you’d accuse me of only loving you for your beauty.”
Feng Tianlan bumped her arm against his chest and glared at him with feigned indignation. “Well, I fell for you because of your beauty, so you’d better not turn ugly.”
Si Mobao chuckled and nodded his head. Wrapping his arms around her slim waist, he said, “All right. It’s time to sleep. I don’t want you to be too exhausted tomorrow.”
To all those who’d said that Lan’er wasn’t worthy of him, he wanted to tell them that none of them could compare to her. Even her pinky toe was worth more than they were.
Feng Tianlan hummed in agreement. Over the last few days, she’d been running from the assassin and plagued by his words. As a result, she hadn’t been able to sleep well. Now, having Mobai by her side made her feel safe and secure, and she quickly fell asleep.
Si Mobai had started his daily searches for Feng Tianlan early each morning, only to return late at night, barely sleeping for more than two hours a day. Now that he’d finally found her, having her in his arms gave him a sense of peace. The tension he’d been feeling instantly disappeared, and he soon fell asleep after her.
The next day, Feng Tianlan woke up early in the morning, and the up-close sight of Si Mobai’s enchantingly handsome face greeted her. In a bit of a daze, she looked up and kissed his perfect lips.
Si Mobai was a light sleeper. The moment she kissed him, his hands tightened imperceptibly around her waist. Then, he rolled over and pinned her underneath him. With the tip of his tongue, he pried open her lips and plundered her mouth.
Feng Tianlan had simply wanted to peck him on the lips to prove that he was real and not an illusion. However, the tables had turned, and the initiator now found herself at the receiving end of the kiss. However, just as quickly, she reached her arms around his neck and gently returned his kisses.
At that moment, a certain area, which was already sticking out because it was morning, felt like it was about to pierce through his garment and mount an attack on a certain somewhere. Si Mobai jerked back in alarm, and reluctantly released Feng Tianlan’s lips. His eyes, which were filled with undisguised lust, widened, and he gazed at her before climbing out of bed and rushing into the bathroom.
Yet again, she’d caused him to lose control!
Upon hearing the sound of water coming from inside, Feng Tianlan giggled to herself. Because of her, Si Mobai was taking a cold shower again. Clearly, he found her extremely attractive.
At the thought that it was she who’d he’d fallen in love with, Feng Tianlan happily climbed out of bed and walked over to her vanity table. She took out the face-changing elixir and turned her face into a man’s. Then, she changed into men’s clothing. As she stared at the reflection of a young man in the bronze mirror, she thought about how Si Mobai had kissed this face, and she couldn’t contain her smile as she moved to the side to wash up.
After Si Mobai finished taking his cold shower, he stepped out of the room and saw the handsome young man who’d suddenly appeared. Raising his brows, he asked, “You’re still dressing up as a man even with your husband around? Are you trying to get the whole continent to think I’m gay?”
Feng Tianlan looked up at him and asked with a giggle. “If I really was a man, would you still love me?”
Si Mobai stepped forward and tapped her on the tip of her nose. “As long as you’re Lan’er, even if you’re a pig much less a man, my love for you will never change.”
“Who are you calling a pig?” Feng Tianlan reached her hand out and pinched his waist.
Si Mobai laughed and replied, “Myself.” Besides, they were a couple. It didn’t matter who the pig was.
Feng Tianlan harrumphed smugly at his reply and made space for Si Mobai to sit beside her in front of the bronze mirror. “I’ll help you tie your hair. Please take me to see Sister Lin later.”
“You know how to?” Si Mobai raised his eyebrows doubtfully. She wasn’t going to spend half a day trying to figure it out, was she?
The corners of Feng Tianlan’s lips twitched as she deftly helped him tie his hair into a bun. Then, she placed the jade hairpiece in his hair to hold the bun in place. “Did you think I was as dumb as you?” she asked.
