Chapter 228: Chapter 229: It’s Your Choice
"Yingying, hurry up and go out, you’re not needed here," Li Yifei, in his attempt to prove his point once again, wrapped his arm around Xu Yingying’s shoulder and pushed her towards the door.
With a reflexive struggle, Xu Yingying glanced outside, then twisted her body and said, "Alright, I’m leaving, you tend to your things." Then she quickly walked out.
Xu Yingying’s reaction once again confird Li Yifei’s speculation: she didn’t like him and didn’t truly want to be with him.
Since Xu Yingying didn’t truly harbor affection for him, Li Yifei easily discerned her purpose—her actions were still about Xu Shanshan. Because Xu Shanshan had taken a liking to him, Xu Yingying didn’t want such a scenario to unfold. It wasn’t that she thought Li Yifei wasn’t good enough, but rather, having such a situation arise at ho was just too awkward. First her boyfriend, then her sister’s—there was no explaining it to the parents.
In other words, Xu Yingying didn’t necessarily have to be with him; as long as he wasn’t with Xu Shanshan, that would suffice.
Having figured this out, Li Yifei felt much more at ease in front of Xu Yingying. Since she didn’t have true feelings for him, he naturally didn’t have to carry such a heavy burden. Whether it was acting or playing a ga, it was all for fun.
After preparing a lavish dinner, the five of them were eating and drinking together, quite happily. Li Yifei had intended to leave after dinner, but Xu Yingying’s invincible mom imdiately stopped him and said sternly, "Yingying has been away on a business trip and has just returned. You young couple can’t be separated. You’ll stay together tonight."
Although the statent wasn’t very direct, Xu Yingying and Li Yifei could clearly hear the underlying ssage: they were being urged to hurry and share a bed, to make a baby as soon as possible. This left Xu Yingying feeling both shy and awkward, while Li Yifei, with his mood changed, found it amusing and pretended to be in a difficult position, saying, "The house isn’t big enough for
to stay. Where would I sleep?"
Xu Yingying’s mom imdiately said, "What do you an, not big enough? Shanshan and I can share a room, and Old Xu can sleep on the sofa."
Li Yifei hurriedly said, "That won’t do; let
sleep on the sofa."
Xu Yingying’s mom glared and retorted, "Why would you sleep on the sofa? No, no, you must share a room with Yingying."
Xu Shanshan giggled, raised her hand, and announced loudly, "Alright alright, I’m the youngest here, I’ll take the sofa. Now there’s no problem."
Xu Yingying’s mom imdiately smiled from ear to ear and said, "Right, let Shanshan sleep on the sofa. Does anyone have any objections now?"
Li Yifei looked towards Xu Yingying, shrugged helplessly, while Xu Yingying could only roll her eyes in agreent. Luckily, sharing a room with Li Yifei wasn’t new to her, so she didn’t feel any psychological burden.
Xu Zhenguo initially wanted to play a couple of chess gas with Li Yifei but was directly vetoed by his wife, who argued that with Xu Yingying and Li Yifei working so hard, how could they not let the two go to sleep early? Xu Zhenguo also dismissed the thought with a smile. Although he hadn’t expressed his opinion, his hope for Xu Yingying to have a child soon was no less than his wife’s; being a man, he simply wasn’t as eager to make a statent.
Xu Yingying and Li Yifei finished their showers and had no choice but to head straight to the bedroom to avoid any more nagging.
Once the bedroom door was closed, Xu Yingying sat on the bed, frowned, and muttered, "Now there’s a new requirent, it’s giving
a headache."
Li Yifei, on the other hand, laid back on the bed leisurely, lit a cigarette, and began to enjoy it.
Slling the smoke, Xu Yingying imdiately turned and said indignantly, "The air conditioner is on and you’re smoking; have you no sense of public decency?"
Li Yifei jumped up to open the window and said, "It’ll clear out in a bit."
"You..." Xu Yingying glared at Li Yifei but said no more. After all, she wasn’t so repelled by the sll of his cigarettes anymore, being neat, she simply didn’t like it when he flicked ash everywhere, especially in the bedroom.
After finishing his cigarette, Li Yifei yawned and said, "It’s getting late, let’s sleep."
Xu Yingying humd in acknowledgent, turned around, and noticed Li Yifei comfortably lying in the middle of the bed, which imdiately made her frown and ask, "If you’re in the middle, where do I sleep?"
Li Yifei chuckled and replied, "Of course, next to ."
Xu Yingying’s face darkened, but seeing Li Yifei’s amused expression, she suddenly felt her reaction might be a bit off. She shot him a glare and said, "I’m not ntally prepared yet; it’s better to maintain the status quo for now."
"Look at you, your heart accepts , but your body doesn’t. That’s making
suffer," sighed Li Yifei, moving over with a helpless expression.
Xu Yingying felt sowhat guilty, turned off the light, climbed into bed, and noticed that Li Yifei was sufficiently far away, which made her breathe a sigh of relief. Considering Li Yifei had never taken advantage of her before, she wasn’t worried he would do anything now.
However, before long, Li Yifei suddenly rolled over to her side, startling Xu Yingying. She didn’t dare make a fuss and whispered tensely, "What are you doing?"
Li Yifei leaned in close to Xu Yingying’s ear and whispered back, "It’s not about what I want to do, but isn’t the sound insulation in this room a bit lacking?"
"What about it?" Xu Yingying asked, puzzled.
"Rember when Fangqing and I stayed at your place?"
"Of course, I rember... you dead hoodlum!" Xu Yingying’s face flushed red with embarrassnt. The noises that Li Yifei and He Fangqing had made while staying here had kept her from sleeping well. It was also the first ti she had heard such sounds; how could she forget?
"If you rember, then you should understand that your parents must have heard the sounds from our room, right?"
Xu Yingying said irritably, "Even if the sound insulation is poor, there’s no way they could hear such loud noises."
"What I an is, it’s not about them not hearing the sounds, but rather they should hear the sounds, right?"
Xu Yingying was completely clueless about Li Yifei’s intention and frowned, slightly turning her head to look at Li Yifei and ask, "Let them hear, what do you an?"
Li Yifei curled his lips and said, "You, the big CEO, how can you be so dumb at a ti like this? What do you think the uncle and auntie want us to do by sending us to bed so early?"
"They want to... ah..." Xu Yingying finally understood the aning behind Li Yifei’s words. Instantly, her face turned red and she was extrely embarrassed, stuttering, "You can’t be... wanting
to... imitate Sister Fangqing’s voice, can you?"
"Smart!" Li Yifei said with a grin, looking at Xu Yingying. His heart was even more joyful. Xu Yingying had been driving him crazy lately, and now he found an excellent opportunity for revenge.
"No way, I won’t do it even if you kill ," Xu Yingying shook her head resolutely, her tone very firm.
Li Yifei rolled over and lay back down, saying indifferently, "Suit yourself, anyway, I’ve thought of the idea for you. It’s your problem if you get nagged at tomorrow morning."
A twitch appeared at the corner of Xu Yingying’s mouth. Her mother’s nagging was truly lethal, and she really didn’t want to endure it, but to make her imitate the sound He Fangqing made that night...
Even if she truly got married and, well, did that thing with a man, Xu Yingying strongly believed that she would never make those kinds of sounds.
"I’m asking you one more ti, are you really not going to do it? If not, I’m going to sleep, and later you’d better not disturb ." After a while, Li Yifei asked again.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep, I won’t be calling for you," Xu Yingying snorted. She really wanted to kick Li Yifei off the bed, just like in the beginning, making him continue sleeping on the floor.
"I’m off to sleep then." Less than two minutes after Li Yifei finished speaking, his breathing beca even, seemingly fast asleep.
"What a pig! Sleeps as soon as he says it," Xu Yingying muttered to herself.
The room was very quiet now, and the sounds from outside started to drift in faintly.
"Shanshan, when you were staying here, was there no sound coming from your sister’s room too?" That was their mother’s voice.
"I don’t know, I sleep soundly, and I wouldn’t hear anything even if there was noise." That was Xu Shanshan’s voice, and it was quite loud.
"I’m telling you, Old Xu, don’t you think Yingying, having co back from her business trip, doesn’t know to get intimate with Yifei, how are they ever going to have kids?"
"You old woman, why do you have to worry about everything? The kids are all grown up; they know what to do," said Xu Zhenguo’s voice.
"Can’t I be anxious? Tomorrow I still need to have a good talk with Yingying about this kid; she is really too outrageous."
"Right! Mom, you definitely have to have a good chat with Sister," Xu Shanshan added fuel to the fire.
Xu Yingying, listening to the conversation outside, felt her heart sink. If her mother lectured her about that matter again tomorrow, she truly felt like she would go insane. To avoid her mother’s nagging tomorrow, suddenly Li Yifei’s suggestion seed not so bad.
But the thought of having to make that kind of sound, how lewd it would be, she had no idea how to make it—Xu Yingying’s face darkened again. How could she possibly do such a thing?
And if her family and the guy beside her heard it, how could she face anyone tomorrow? This left Xu Yingying incredibly conflicted.
After much deliberation, the fear of her mother’s nagging prevailed, and losing face seed not to be such a big deal after all. At least that was the kind of sound her parents wanted to hear.
"Just make the noise, what’s the big deal? Anyway, this guy is asleep." Xu Yingying gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind. She opened her mouth, and a sound escaped.
