"Let's go."
Xi Ying said after reluctantly stopping himself from kissing Li Rui's whole face.
He could see that she was feeling uncomfortable even with his forehead kisses as there were shadow guards present around them.
He didn't want her to feel uncomfortable so he decided to take it to their room and for that, he needed to go to Xi Manor as soon as possible.
Li Rui was confused when she heard his words.
His hand was still around her waist so she didn't understand where he was asking her to go.
An Ju had told her that the carriages were ready to take them to Xi Manor
Didn't they have to walk through the forests to go to the road where the carriages were waiting?
Her eyes flickered when she suddenly felt her feet leaving the ground and the forest soon started to seem small.
"Do you think that I will let my wife walk for so long?"
Xi Ying's playful voice ca from the above of her head which made her smile lightly as she shook her head.
With a sigh, she felt the morning breeze slapping her cheek and blowing her hair in the air.
Her heart was at peace as she placed her head on Xi Ying's chest and heard the fast heartbeat under her ears.
Since Xi Ying and his other shadow guards used qingqong, it didn't take them a long ti to reach the roads where the carriages were waiting.
Xi Ying didn't waste much ti as he wanted to let Li Rui have so rest after going to Xi Manor.
An Ping had told her that she had been taking care of him the whole night and he also rembered when he had woken up she was sleeping while leaning against the stone wall.
Her face was very pale at that ti almost scaring him to think that the Li Rui in his dream and the Li Rui in front of his eyes were the sa…that he had really lost her.
It was only after he checked her breathing, he had gently picked her from the ground and then laid her on the stone bed where his robe was spread already.
Sitting inside the carriage, he again couldn't stop himself from staring at Li Rui who was looking out of the window.
Xi Ying wondered if Li Rui would also rember everything from the past life just like him.
He then rembered the words, the man with white hair had told him when he had asked him the safe question.
'If the pain from the past life is too much for her to handle, then she will not.'
He really wished she wouldn't.
How would he ever be able to look in her eyes if she really rembered everything when he himself couldn't forgive himself for everything?
'She had chosen this herself'
The words suddenly flashed in his mind. They were said by the sa man before he had stabbed himself in his dream.
It confused Xi Ying.
Why would Li Rui choose sothing like this?
Xi Ying ca out of his thoughts when he saw that Li Rui was twisting her fingers that were placed on her lap.
Amusent flashed through his eyes.
So she could feel his gaze. However, he didn't move his eyes away.
Instead, he stood up from the seat that was in front of Li Rui and sat beside her on the sa seat she was sitting on.
Before he had sat there so that he could stare at his wife freely without her noticing his gaze. He was also afraid that he would not be able to control himself if he sat too close to Li Rui but it seed that no matter how much he tried his efforts would only go in waste.
Li Rui could indeed feel Xi Ying's gaze. She also knew when he sat beside her.
Her heart skipped a beat for a mont and the next mont she felt flustered at her own behavior.
What was going on with her body?
She didn't understand herself.
Rembering how she had behaved inside the cave when Xi Ying was kissing her, her heart started to pound fiercely inside her chest.
'It must be because of her pregnancy.' Li Rui thought inside her heart as she rembered that she had read sothing like this in the books when she was pregnant with Xi Ling.
So won tend to desire intimacy more when they are with children.
Finally finding so reason for her behavior, Li Rui felt a little comfort inside her heart. Still, she decided to control herself from behaving like this in the future.
It was too shaful and embarrassing whenever she rembered those monts.
How could she lose control on herself lik…
Li Rui was forced to halt amidst her thoughts when she felt her body suddenly leaving her seat and the next mont she found herself in Xi Ying's lap.
The sa position from the cane made her thoughts more jumbled and she looked at Xi Ying in surprise.
However, when she saw those intense black eyes, she sucked a sharp breath and lowered her head unable to look into them.
This ti, she pretended very well to not look affected at all by Xi Ying's actions. With a calm face, she looked out of the carriage's small window.
However, Xi Ying knew that she was getting affected by their new position.
He couldn't help but smile playfully and leaned forward to catch her soft earlobe in his lips.
Li Rui's calm face went blank and she closed her eyes tightly.
"Rui"
Xi Ying whispered huskily in Li Rui's ear.
A shiver ran down Li Rui's spine making Xi Ying chuckle at the sensitivity of his wife.
He didn't tease her anymore and hugged her tightly to his chest.
"Rest. It will take ti to reach Xi Manor."
He said with a deep smile on his lips.
His heart felt full…so full that he was thinking that it would burst out of his chest.
It was after a very long ti, he had felt so much happiness.
