Chapter 371 Talking about Love
Chapter 371 Talking about Love
In the afternoon, when everyone arrived in the town safely and settled down in the inn, before Shen Li had time to look for Luo Lingchen, he couldn't wait to come to her himself.
Shen Li hurriedly welcomed him into the house, then turned to Chu Qiu and said, "Chu Qiu, take those maids and servants to buy some supplies we need. Master Ling and I have something to discuss."
Chu Qiu nodded in agreement obediently, bowed to the two of them, then tiptoed out of the room, carefully closing the door.
As soon as Luo Lingchen entered the room, he looked at Shen Li with sparkling eyes. A sly smile hung on his face as he said, "I thought I was the only one missing Li'er day and night, but I didn't expect Li'er to be so eager to see me too!"
Shen Li had long been familiar with his talkative nature after these few days of contact, so she didn't get angry. Instead, she straightened her face and said, "I want to discuss something serious with you."
Luo Lingchen, however, acted as if he hadn't heard her. He walked straight forward, grasped her hand without further ado, and continued his chatter, "I finally have this chance to be alone with you. All I can think about is spending time with you under the moonlight, talking about love, and yet you so heartlessly tell me to get down to business!"
He deliberately covered his chest in an exaggerated manner and said, "My heart is really broken!"
Shen Li burst out laughing at his appearance and asked helplessly: "Then what do you have to do to get down to business?"
Luo Lingchen blinked and asked cunningly, "Can I ask for anything?"
Shen Li nodded seriously and said, "As long as it is within my ability, I will try anything you ask me to do for you."
Luo Lingchen approached her mysteriously and whispered, "How could I bear to ask you to do such complicated and tedious things? This matter is actually very simple."
After that, he leaned over, put his ear gently next to Shen Li's ear, and whispered: "Li'er, kiss me, okay?"
When Shen Li heard this, she felt her face instantly burning hot, as if there was fire on it. She subconsciously covered her ears and shook her head repeatedly to indicate that she didn't want to listen.
Seeing this, Luo Lingchen was not discouraged. He took advantage of the situation and gently embraced her in his arms, saying softly, "Li'er, we are boyfriend and girlfriend now. I just wanted a little kiss, but you found it so difficult to accept. If in the future..."
He lowered his head again and whispered a few words in Shen Li's ear. His voice was very low, but Shen Li heard it clearly. Shen Li felt even more ashamed, and her whole body felt as if it was roasted by fire, and her whole body was hot.
Luo Lingchen refused to let her go, and continued to coax her softly, "Li'er, please have some pity on me. If it were possible, I would hold you in my arms every day, never leaving you for even a moment."
He pouted his lips slightly, with a cunning glint in his eyes. His deliberately coquettish look made people both angry and amused.
His voice was a little soft, yet also revealed a stubbornness, and he said coquettishly: "Look, although your body is small and delicate and looks very young, the soul inside you has already grown up.
As for me, I am several years older than you, so I am like an older brother to you.
It's just a kiss, so what? Don't be so stingy." As he spoke, he swayed his body slightly, as if trying to increase the effect of his coquettishness, as if he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
Shen Li was only thinking about discussing serious matters with him, so she had no choice but to suppress her embarrassment and said to him, "Okay, I agree to your request, but you are not allowed to act silly anymore."
Luo Lingchen's face lit up with joy when he heard this, and he readily agreed. He looked at Shen Li's height and was afraid that even if she stood on tiptoe, she wouldn't be able to reach him.
So he picked her up, strode to the soft couch in the room, sat down gently, and placed Shen Li steadily on his lap, as if she was the most precious treasure in the world.
He looked at the still shy girl in his arms, raised the corners of his mouth, and said, "I'm ready, Li'er, come on."
Shen Li raised her head and glanced at Luo Lingchen, who had his eyes closed and a look of anticipation on his face. She made up her mind, closed her eyes, and slowly moved towards his face.
Unexpectedly, just when her lips were about to touch Luo Lingchen, he suddenly came forward, hugged Shen Li tightly with both hands, and kissed her lips domineeringly.
This kiss made Shen Li feel as if the world was spinning around her. Her mind went blank, her whole body went limp, and she couldn't muster any strength.
Luo Lingchen kept sucking and nibbling on her mouth. It seemed as if he wanted to convey the passionate emotions to her through this kiss, and he was reluctant to let go.
It was unknown how long it took, until she felt a stinging pain in her mouth, and Luo Lingchen finally let her go.
At this moment, Luo Lingchen buried his head in Shen Li's arms, breathing heavily, as if he had used up all his strength.
Shen Li blushed and stammered, "You...now you can talk to me about business..."
Luo Lingchen suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with a hint of heat and eagerness, and said viciously, "Can't you feel it?"
Shen Li looked confused and asked, "What?"
Luo Lingchen didn't answer, but simply lifted her body forward gently. Shen Li suddenly felt a hard object under her buttocks, and her body instantly stiffened. She frantically moved her body, trying to get off his legs.
Luo Lingchen's heavy breathing and soft hissing could be heard beside his ears: "Don't! Don't move! Ancestor, I was wrong..."
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became ambiguous and awkward, the breathing sounds of the two people intertwined, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Shen Li was looking forward to having a serious talk with Luo Lingchen, but who could have imagined that the guy, relying entirely on his thick-skinned ability, would go on and on without stopping.
Sometimes he came over and said sweet words affectionately, and sometimes he made a move and made a scene, leaving Shen Li no chance to get to the point.
In this way, Shen Li was trapped in the house for the entire afternoon and couldn't get away. Even without her realizing it, the man had unbuttoned her chest. When Shen Li found out, he jokingly buttoned it up for her, looking as if he was doing the most ordinary thing.
After finally getting rid of Luo Lingchen's "entanglement" that followed her like a shadow, Shen Li walked to the bronze mirror and was about to tidy up her messy clothes and hair.
But she accidentally noticed a conspicuous "strawberry" mark on her fair neck.
Her eyes widened instantly, she felt angry and embarrassed, and she couldn't help but think indignantly: This guy, I didn't even notice when and how he did it! This is really too much. What if someone else saw me? What should I do?
Shen Li felt her cheeks burning hot and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. But now that things had come to this, she could only regret it secretly and think about how to cover up this "accident".
Shen Li thought silently in her heart: Although according to the current situation, I will soon be fourteen years old, in ancient times, this age is already the time to talk about marriage and get married.
However, both he and I are from modern society, and we have concepts and cognitions that are completely different from this era.
This matter cannot be let go in such a muddled way. I must find a suitable opportunity in the future to have a calm and clear talk with him, and express each other's feelings and thoughts frankly, so that he can know my true attitude towards love and marriage. I can't let him act so recklessly.
