Chapter 199:
Xie Wanning was somewhat shocked, the hands cupping his cheeks couldn’t help but use some force, “Why is your face red?”
Isn’t he the most shameless one?
Lu Ziyan saw the implication in her words, his face darkened, and he stared straight at her, “Who has a red face.”
“Oh…” Xie Wanning nodded, her knuckles slowly rubbing his jaw, “If you won’t admit it, then forget it.”
Lu Ziyan was speechless for a moment, then simply reached out to grip her shoulders, lowered his head to kiss her, but Xie Wanning reacted quickly and urgently turned her head away, “Don’t!”
She still had some reason left at this moment and wouldn’t let him kiss her with that mouth.
Thus, Lu Ziyan felt even more helpless, his lips landing on her cheek, and he said lowly: “It’s not that I like doing this kind of thing, it’s that I only like doing this kind of thing to you.”
He smiled, his hand slowly caressing along her waistline, “Because it’s you. As long as it makes you happy, I can do anything.”
This was the young lady he loved deeply in his heart; he loved the feeling of being needed by her to the extreme. All her desires arose because of him, which was something that brought him immense pleasure.
That feeling was no less satisfying than the pleasure from true possession.
His words were so direct; Xie Wanning pondered for a moment, then after a long while, her arms circled his neck and she buried her face in his arms.
Lu Ziyan pinched her waist and chuckled lightly, “So soft…”
With that, the hand gripping her waist used a bit of force, switching their positions so that she was lying on top of him.
Xie Wanning’s hands pressed against his chest, and she said vigilantly: “You can’t do it again tonight.”
“Mm…” Lu Ziyan agreed, the smile on his face unbroken, “I’ll listen to you; whatever Wanwan says goes.”
“…” Xie Wanning was at a loss for words; seeing that he truly had no intention of continuing, she relaxed and rested her face in the hollow of his neck.
The tent fell quiet for a moment, with no one speaking.
After a good while, Xie Wanning poked his collarbone and said: “What will you be busy with tomorrow?”
After so many days, this was the first time she cared about his daily routine.
Lu Ziyan’s heart softened, his palm lightly stroking her smooth long hair as he said: “Our wedding date is approaching, so these few days I must first handle all affairs properly before I can accompany Wanwan to spend New Year in peace.”
With that, he lowered his head to kiss her earlobe and smiled: “Or does Wanwan want me to start staying with you day and night right now?”
“No…” The hot breath at her ear made Xie Wanning shrink her neck as she said: “Then you busy yourself with official duties; leave the marriage details to me.”
No sooner had she spoken than she felt her nape gripped; the man’s face before her magnified infinitely, those stern pupils filled with shock and joy.
“Really?” Lu Ziyan’s joy couldn’t be suppressed at all, “Wanwan is willing to personally handle our marriage?”
Xie Wanning hadn’t seen such joy on his face for who knows how long; a wave of heartache welled up in her chest, but she instinctively smiled and said: “Yes, really. You focus on your important matters; don’t worry about these trifles.”
Although Lu Ziyan didn’t think their marriage was a trifle at all, nothing made him happier than her taking the initiative to care about him.
Such genuine concern had only been experienced by him in his past life, but back then he had only thought it ordinary and had no idea how precious it was.
Xie Wanning was now the publicly acknowledged mistress of the General’s Mansion; the entire mansion, including Ming Feng and Ming Jian, could be commanded by her. Handling one marriage was no issue, and Lu Ziyan was completely at ease.
He didn’t know the calculations in the young lady’s heart in his arms; he nodded in agreement to her words without hesitation and thoughtfully explained that she should just instruct whatever she needed.
