Married To The Cruel Crown Prince-Chapter 794: Private Residence- Part 2
"Nothing," Sheng Li replied and brought his palms down before landing his lips on her.
As he lowered her hands, he lowered his head too and landed his lips over Ying Lili's soft, pillowy ones. She bit his bottom lip, who pulled away and placed his thumb at it. She had an amusing smile on her lips. "At least, don't do this openly now. You still have not grown up," she said and turned away to go inside.
Sheng Li walked behind her. "And you still get shy. I only kissed you and you bit my lip. You are turning naughty," Sheng Li teased her.
Ying Lili stopped outside the chamber and turned to face him again. "I wasn't naughty. Don't use such words," Ying Lili said and pushed the door to get inside.
"Why? Will you be shy again?" His lips curled up into a smirk.
He locked the doors behind him. Ying Lili attempted to open the knot on the long fur overcoat when Sheng Li held the strings. "I will do," he said and untied the knot. He put it away and then removed the one that he had put on.
Ying Lili went to the bed and sat on it while Sheng Li poured the water into a glass. He tasted it first before letting Ying Lili drink it. Her legs were lying flatly on the mattress and one of her hands was on her right leg.
Sheng Li sat near her feet while she put the silver glass on the bedside table. He gently grasped her feet and pulled her near him such that her legs rested on his thighs. Before she could ask him, she heard him.
"Leg cramps are common at this time. I will press them to make you feel better," Sheng Li told her and gently pressed his palms on her legs.
"I will ask a servant, Sheng Li. You do not need to do it." Ying Lili tried to stop him.
"Lili, it is my work," Sheng Li answered. "You can lay down and relax," he suggested to her.
Ying Lili leaned forward as her knees went up in the air. Sheng Li tilted his head to look at what she was doing when felt her lips on his cheek.
She said nothing and leaned back.
"You surprised me!" Sheng Li said in astonishment.
"It was only a peck," Ying Lili replied in a low voice.
"If you want, then we can kiss deeper," Sheng Li said, "but after I will be done." He continued to press her legs while being gentle with her.
"This residence is close to my heart. My confession, my marriage with you, everything started here. The start of our healthy relationship truly begins from here,"
Sheng Li asserted and his eyes glinted with immense happiness.
"Thank you for giving me this life, Lili. I know that I have thanked you plenty of times, but that's not enough. We both know how I used to be. Sometimes, it all appears as a dream… a beautiful dream."
"Dreams come true, Sheng Li. I had promised myself that I will show you what love is! I am glad that we both made it. We both negotiated every obstruction in our path. The start of a beautiful family has already begun. Don't look at your past anymore. Live your present to the fullest," Ying Lili said.
"Hmm. I vividly remember the first festival we both attended, where you told me that you want to love me. I remember every moment that showed me how much your value is in my life. Thank you, Lili, for believing in me. Thank you, for accepting the imperfections inside me. I am truly happy, Lili. Every night has turned beautiful and every morning is pretty. Every day is cheerful and full of joy."
Ying Lili pulled her legs back and moved closer to him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and drew him close for a warm hug. "It all happened because of our mutual efforts, Sheng Li. I told you that our love is butterfly love. It will remain forever young and will only strengthen with each passing day."
Sheng Li placed his hands on her back and snuggled with her. His face was buried in the crook of her neck and his eyes closed.
They slowly leaned back, however, their bodies were still pressed against each other. They both looked into each other's eyes, before initiating a kiss.
"Your Majesty, Prince Wanxi has come to see you." They both heard Court Lady Xu's voice, who was at the door.
Ying Lili placed her hand on his shoulder, and the two pulled away. "Brother Wanxi wants to see you," she said.
"He still has not left his old habit." Sheng Li got annoyed and got off the bed. "I will be back soon," he said. Ying Lili nodded and told him not to scold Lei Wanxi.
"He deserves to be scolded," Sheng Li said and opened the lock.
"Sheng Li, Brother Wanxi might have something important to discuss with you. Don't be angry. Brother Wanxi did not mean to disturb us," Ying Lili made him understand.
"I will try not to be angry at him," Sheng Li said and walked out of the chamber. Ying Lili smiled and shook her head.
"Stay with the Empress," Sheng Li instructed Court Lady Xu, who went into the chamber.
"His Majesty looks angry," Court
Lady Xu said.
"Brother Wanxi interrupted us once again," Ying Lili said and laughed. She recalled Hu Jingguo, who used to come everytime when they both would be kissing each other. She stopped laughing and once again felt the void in her life. She had everything now, but that one friend, she could never get.
'Hu Jingguo, I still miss you,' she said to herself.
