In the new villa, the newlyweds, after washing up, found themselves somewhat at a loss facing their wedding night.
"Ahem," Li Weibao cleared his throat and took Yu Ziyu's hand. "Shall we turn off the lights?"
"Pfft," Yu Ziyu chuckled at his words. "That reminds me of that incredibly shameless thing men always say."
Li Weibao playfully pinched her cheek. "What's on your mind? I only suggested it because I thought you were a bit nervous."
Yu Ziyu's eyes curved into a smile. "Aren't you nervous too?"
"Yes, I am very nervous," Li Weibao gazed at her smiling face. "Finally, I can hold you in my arms legitimately. Of course, I'm nervous. Are you ready?"
Yu Ziyu's smile deepened. "Xiaobo, this isn't a mission, a competition, or an exam. There's no way to prepare, and it's impossible to be... Mmph!"
Her words were cut off by Li Weibao's kiss.
If preparation was impossible, then there was no need to prepare. He would pluck her at any moment.
Yu Ziyu was kissed onto the bed, her clothes were removed by kisses, and in a haze of passion, she was blinded by the light above.
"Xiaobo, turn off the light."
"No," Li Weibao's kisses moved to her neck, and he whispered softly, "I want to record all your beauty in my eyes and heart. Be good, pay attention. If you're distracted, I'll feel like my charm isn't enough."
The fervent, trembling kisses trailed down, making Yu Ziyu unable to focus on anything else, not even hearing what Li Weibao said. She only felt countless changes within her body, a desire to be closer, ever closer, to her beloved...
Finally, they were perfectly united...
The next morning, as soon as dawn broke, Li Weibao woke up. He had to go to the opposite villa to see people off. Many people were leaving today, and he wanted to bid them farewell.
"Hmm?" Yu Ziyu opened her eyes. "Xiaobo?"
Li Weibao placed her arm back under the quilt. "It's still early. You sleep more. I'm going to see them off next door."
"I'll go too."
Yu Ziyu tried to sit up, but Li Weibao gently pressed her back down. "You're tired. I'll go alone."
"But..." Yu Ziyu still wanted to resist.
"No 'buts'." Li Weibao leaned down and kissed her gently. "You look so captivating right now, I can't bear for anyone else to see you like this, not even other women."
*Boom!*
Yu Ziyu's face turned red. "I won't go. Others will misunderstand."
"Don't worry about what they think." Li Weibao kissed her lips firmly. "You sleep well. When I'm done next door, I'll come back and stay with you, and then you won't have a chance to sleep."
Yu Ziyu's face turned even redder. "You, hurry up and go."
Li Weibao stood up. "Okay, you rest well. I'll be back."
Yu Ziyu pulled the covers up over her head. "Hurry and go."
Li Weibao smiled and left the room.
Hearing the door close, Yu Ziyu finally pulled the quilt off her head. Phew, it was stifling. She closed her eyes, wanting to sleep, but her mind was filled with images of her passionate and wild union with Xiaobo last night.
"Whew," Yu Ziyu exhaled. Can't think about it, can't think about it. Sleep, sleep. She had to sleep, otherwise, when Xiaobo returned, she wouldn't be able to.
...
The doorbell rang. Li Zhengguo opened the door and was surprised to see his second son. "What are you doing here?"
Li Weibao walked into the yard. "Came to see Captain and Lili off."
Father and son entered the dining room, where the people eating breakfast were also surprised to see Li Weibao. Li Weibao reiterated that he was there to see them off.
Mother Li pushed a tea egg and a meat bun towards him. "Have breakfast with us. Ranran, get your second brother a bowl of congee."
Li Weixin put down his chopsticks, got up, served the congee, and quietly said to his second brother, "Xiao Yu Ge and An An Ge bet that you wouldn't be able to get up today. You made Xiao Yu Ge lose money."
Li Weibao gave his younger cousin Xiao Yu a deep look. Li Weiyu shrank his neck, secretly glancing away from Xiaobo Ge's gaze. Ranran must have betrayed him. His five hundred yuan red envelope, which he hadn't even had time to warm up, was gone. Was Xiaobo Ge's stamina that strong? Was it too late for him to start practicing martial arts? No, wasn't he an MRA? Didn't he think love was terrifying? Why was he planning for his future wedding night? He must have been too influenced by those around him recently. In Beijing, Sister Lili and her husband showed off their affection, tormenting him. Here, Brother Hao Hao and his elder brother also showed off their affection over the phone, tormenting him. His own mother implied he was the 'worst in the Li family,' making him overthink. Don't overthink, don't think too much. He had to keep moving forward towards his goals.
After breakfast, Zeng Jingrong left with Li Weihao, Li Weiyan, and Li Weixin. Han Lushí tidied up his and Lili's belongings, preparing to leave with Li Weiyu. Mother Li repeatedly urged Han Lushí to take good care of Lili and to return to Kushan as soon as Lili's graduation defense was over. Han Lushí agreed to everything, assuring his grandmother and parents that he would take good care of Lili.
Li Weiyu listened to his grandmother's repetitive instructions, his ears buzzing. He truly admired his brother-in-law's patience. Lili, on the other hand, was surrounded by her aunt and aunt, who were asking her about arrangements for her two younger brothers. Li Weili then realized she had been used as a shield by her cousins. She had indeed told her cousin not to rush into relationships, as she worried he might date someone in the provincial capital and then have to deal with a long-distance relationship if he worked in Beijing after graduation. However, it was fine. Her two younger brothers had a point. There were many girls in the company. So, she promised her aunt and aunt that she would find girlfriends for her two younger brothers.
Ouyang Meihua nodded. "If they're not married by 25, I'll force them back for an immediate wedding." Li Min also nodded. "An An also has a deadline of 25." Li Weili nodded, indicating she had remembered. Mother Li finally stopped nagging and let the couple get into the car and leave. Ouyang Lei drove his son into his car and followed Han Lushí back to Beijing. Yuan Feng's family of three planned to take the train back to Kushan first, traveling with Chen An. Li Liguo drove them to the train station.
Li Min yawned. "Going back to catch up on sleep. Rest well today. We have to go to the Yu family tomorrow." Originally, for Yu Ziyu's return visit, only Li Weibao needed to accompany her. However, Shen Jianrong had invited the Li family to visit the Yu family for a meal, allowing them to reciprocate their hospitality. After all, the Yu family hadn't had a chance to host the Li family since their arrival. The day after tomorrow, the Li family would be leaving, so they decided to accompany Ziyu on her return visit. This wedding had broken quite a few conventions, but conventions were meant to be broken. Neither side was rigid, so they did whatever was convenient. Mother Li agreed. "I'm sleepy too. Let's go back and sleep."
With the Li family catching up on sleep, Li Weibao, who was full and satisfied, took eggs and buns, and a bowl of congee, and returned to feed his wife. Yu Ziyu, having been fed, was then repeatedly "consumed" by her husband. It wasn't until she surrendered with a hoarse voice that Li Weibao reluctantly let her go. Li Weibao, holding the now drowsy Yu Ziyu, took her to the bathroom to wash up. In her semi-conscious state, Yu Ziyu mumbled a plea for mercy again. Li Weibao gently kissed her with affection. "I won't bother you anymore. You sleep well, I'll wash you." "Mmm, thank you," Yu Ziyu murmured, falling asleep in his arms. Li Weibao held his wife with one arm and very diligently bathed himself and his wife with the other.
Yu Ziyu woke up when it was completely dark outside. She sat up abruptly. She hadn't gone over to the opposite villa all day. She had to go over quickly and have dinner with them. Just then, the bedroom door opened, and the light from outside spilled in. Li Weibao appeared at the doorway with two bowls. "You're awake? I've heated up the food. It's time to eat." With that, he walked into the room and placed the two bowls on the bedside table. He reached out and flicked the bedside switch, and the room was instantly illuminated. Yu Ziyu pulled the quilt up to her neck. "Why didn't you wake me up to go over for dinner?" "You were exhausted." Li Weibao crouched by the bed. "If you had gone over, Mother would have scolded me even more severely when she saw how you looked." Yu Ziyu looked up at him. "Mother scolded you?" "Yes," Li Weibao nodded. "You were sleeping so soundly, I didn't want to wake you, so I went over by myself. When Mother found out you were still sleeping, she almost beat me with a vine. She said I didn't cherish you and only thought of my own pleasure. I was so embarrassed, blushing uncontrollably. Mother never talked about these things with us; Father taught us. This time, she said it directly in a scolding manner, and I felt so awkward, like I couldn't keep up with Mother's speed of thought." "Heh heh," Yu Ziyu laughed gloatingly. "Serves you right! Who told you not to let me go?" "You," Li Weibao affectionately tapped her nose. "I shouldn't have told you. Now you have someone to rely on, don't you?" With that, Li Weibao began to feed her. "Eat up. Eat quickly and then sleep. I don't want to be scolded by your father and mother like this again." Yu Ziyu opened her mouth, waiting to be fed, and while eating, she chided Li Weibao for his lack of restraint. If he dared to be so reckless again, she would tell his mother-in-law and mother. Li Weibao surrendered. "Okay, okay, you have backup, and your backup is very strong. I'm scared." "The first time, I couldn't control myself, wanting to become one with you. From now on, I'll try my best to control myself." Yu Ziyu's face turned red. "We're eating, no talking." "Yes," Li Weibao agreed verbally, but in his mind, he thought, "I haven't eaten, why can't I talk?"
