Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 517 - Not Give You My Kiss This Easily

Lei Wanxi went to the chamber of Zhu Lin and found she was doing something with her sword. "Zhu Lin, Forgive me for earlier," Lei Wanxi apologized when she turned towards him. "Put the sword on the table," He gestured towards the table beside them.

Zhu Lin did so and then looked at Lei Wanxi. "You threw me as if I was a trash bag. Goodness, if you did not want to kiss me, then you should have said so," Zhu Lin asserted. She was annoyed at Lei Wanxi.

"Weng Yu had come at that time. He is a child, and if he had seen us that way, then it would not have been good," Lei Wanxi reasoned.

"I was going to stand up, but you pushed me," Zhu Lin stated. "Are you going to treat me this way in the future?" Zhu Lin questioned him.

"No. Don't make me feel low. The Jade Emperor will punish me if I do wrong to you," Lei Wanxi stated. He quickly put his arm around Zhu Lin's shoulder, astonishing her.

"What are you doing?" Zhu Lin tried pushing him away.

"Come, let's play in my chamber," Lei Wanxi told Zhu Lin.

"I am not a child who plays games," Zhu Lin asserted.

"But, you love me, and I love to play games," Lei Wanxi opined. The smile on his lips kept increasing as he was enjoying teasing Zhu Lin. "We will play a board game," He said and slowly removed his arm from her shoulder.

"I am not good at Board games," Zhu Lin answered.

"Then, it will be more fun," Lei Wanxi stated.

"Prince Wanxi, did you make up your mind? Do you want to be your wife? Do you want to love me?" Her sudden questions vanished the smile on Lei Wanxi's lips. "The Emperor asked me in the morning. I lied to His Majesty that I am not feeling well that's why I delayed my journey. I want your answer first," Zhu Lin explained to him.

"I like you but I do not know whether I love you or not. Forgive me if I hurt your feelings," Lei Wanxi replied.

"Prince Wanxi was going to kiss me earlier. Don't we kiss someone whom we like or love?" Zhu Lin raised her eyebrow.

"I know."

"Does your heart get restless when I come close to you or when you think about me? Does it feel like many butterflies are dancing in your stomach? If it is so, then Prince Wanxi loves me," Zhu Lin told him a few things. "Shall we confirm your feelings for me through a Kiss?" Zhu Lin asked him.

Lei Wanxi was bewildered to see how bold Zhu Lin was! Usually, men say those lines but in his case, Zhu Lin was taking initiative and telling him the things that he had read or heard from the people.

"How can you be so bold? D-do you not feel shy? Huh?" Lei Wanxi wanted to know.

"Why shall I feel shy? You are well aware of my nature. If I think about something, I say it. I do not keep it to my heart," Zhu Lin replied.

Lei Wanxi hummed and took a step closer to her. He leaned a little down to reach Zhu Lin's lips. "You are so desperate to kiss me! I will not give you my kiss this easily," Lei Wanxi said with a serious tone. "You shall make more efforts, Zhu Lin. I am the most desirable bachelor among women. I want to keep this title as long as I can," He stated and leaned back.

Sheng Li came back to the Palace and went to Ying Lili's chamber. Xing-Fu informed Sheng Li that the youngest Prince had visited the Crown Prince.

Sheng Li walked in and heard their laughter. "Why are you two laughing so much?" Sheng Li asked.

They both stopped and stood up from the chairs. Weng Yu greeted Sheng Li. "Greetings to the Crown Prince. Sister Lili was telling me about her childhood days. That's why we were laughing. Forgive me for acting inappropriately," Weng Yu humbly requested.

"You did not do any crime, so you should not apologize," Sheng Li stated and put his hand on Weng Yu's head, who liked it. Sheng Li patted his head and said, "General Xiao told me about your performance. You are working hard. It is good to see you making progress."

"Thanks to Brother Sheng, I can do this. He has been the constant source of my inspiration," Weng Yu replied. Sheng Li never thought that he could become someone's inspiration. He felt good listening to those words, so he embraced Weng Yu into a hug.

Since Weng Yu was smaller in height, he usually reached the upper stomach of Sheng Li. It was the first time Sheng Li hugged him, and he felt as if he was in the seventh sky. Weng Yu encircled his arm around Sheng Li and tightly hugged him.

Sheng Li patted his back and told him to keep working hard.

"I will, Brother Sheng." Weng Yu reassured him, and the two pulled away from each other after some time.

"I shall take my leave. Thank you, Sister Lili, for giving me your time. I will implement your advice. Hopefully, my art teacher will give me good marks in this drawing," Weng Yu stated.

"Tell me if he fails you. I will scold him for you," Sheng Li told Weng Yu, who passed white teeth smile to him.

"Sheng Li, it is not good to scold a teacher," Ying Lili sternly said. The source of this content is novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

"But, he is not my teacher. I can scold him as much as I want to," Sheng Li pronounced. Ying Lili glared at him. "Ahh, fine. I will not do that. Why does Weng Yu have to learn art? It's not like he will become a painter. Such a useless subject it is. Even my late teacher used to scold me. Never once did that knowledge come into good use for me," Sheng Li chuckled. He wanted to say more but the way Ying Lili was glaring at him made him stop.

Weng Yu left the chamber as he found the weird tension that had grown between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.

"How could you call art a useless subject?" Ying Lili, with a fit of rage, inquired.

"It is useless for me. It never helped me," Sheng Li answered. "Let's not ruin our mood on this topic," Sheng Li stated and back hugged her.

"You ruined my half mood already," Ying Lili snapped at him, tilting her head to peer at him.

Sheng Li quickly planted a kiss on her cheek. "Is it okay, now?" He asked, tilting his head.

Ying Lili smiled and turned her head to the front. "Brother Yu respects you a lot," Ying Lili informed him.

"I do not know why he respects me, and then how come I become his inspiration?" Sheng Li whispered and rested his chin on her shoulder.

"Because you protect them, you handle everything by yourself before letting its impact fall on the Royal Family," Ying Lili told him. "For Brother Yu, his Brother Sheng is invincible and a perfect man," Ying Lili stated.

"He became a grown-up. But does he not know his Brother Sheng can do this because of his incredible wife?" Sheng Li brought his cheek near Ying Lili's and then closed the distance between them.

Ying Lili smiled. "Ask your Brother about this," she suggested and turned to him. She rested her palm on his cheek and, with glistened eyes, kept looking at him.

Sheng Li nuzzled his nose on Ying Lili's neck and gave her feathery kisses. Ying Lili giggled and told him to stop. Sheng Li did so and moved back. Drawing her closer, he hugged her tightly. "Lili, I do not know, but I am getting a strange intuition. It feels that something good is on my way," Sheng Li said.

"So, isn't it good?" Ying Lili moved her hand on his chest.

"I fear sometimes. After every good thing, something bad is destined to happen to me," Sheng Li asserted with a gloomy expression.

Ying Lili lifted her head to again gaze at him. "It's fine. We both will face that together. Good and Bad are a part of life," Ying Lili did not let him get low.

Sheng Li nodded his head. He kissed Ying Lili's upper lip, followed by the lower one. She kissed him back, before withdrawing. Her head rested on his chest while Sheng Li rested his chin over Ying Lili's head.
