illicit relationship

"Little brother, your mother and aunt said we could hit you if you did something to us." Shi Fei spoke and paused for a second before she continued, "So, make sure to treat us better or else, we will hit you later."

"Sure. You can hit me, but don't blame me if I punish you until you can no longer move your body later." Even though Xiao Tian didn't explain to her directly what he meant by that, but he was sure Shi Fei understood it.

"Miss Qingyu, did you hear that?" Shi Fei asked as she looked at Ye Qingyu. "He always punished us if we did something to him."

"Did he do something to you earlier? If so, you can hit him now. Don't worry, with me here, he will not dare to do anything to you." Even though Xiao Tian also punished her every time she bullied him, but she pretended as if Xiao Tian would not dare to do something to her.

Black lines formed on his forehead after hearing their words.

'Just you wait. I will punish all of you later.'

Xiao Tian decided to punish all of them if the opportunity arose.

"I will hit his chest later." after saying that, Shi Fei stared at Xiao Tian as if she was challenging him to punish her later.

When Xiao Tian saw her expression, he suddenly wanted to punish her even more. "Ladies, why don't we start the party now?"

"Sure." Ye Xueyin replied as she nodded her head.

While Shi Fei, Liu Ning and Ye Xueyin headed to the backyard, Xiao Tian and his aunt went to the kitchen to bring the grilling equipment.

When Ye Qingyu was about to grab grill planks, Xiao Tian suddenly embraced her from behind and spoke, "Thank you for keeping your promise."

Ye Qingyu didn't immediately answer and only stood still. Actually, she was jealous of Shi Fei and Liu Ning because they could tell anyone that Xiao Tian was their boyfriend, but she could not do that.

Her relationship with him was taboo, and everyone would bad-mouth them if they learned about their relationship.

Ye Qingyu turned around and looked at him in the eyes. Like before, she didn't say anything to him. It was as if her mouth was sealed by something.

After looking at her eyes for several seconds, Xiao Tian kissed her forehead gently, a kiss full of love. "Please, don't make a sad expression. It really hurts me to see you like this."

Xiao Tian knew what she had in mind, but they could not do anything about it. Their problem was something that was nearly impossible to solve.

Ye Qingyu placed her head on his chest before wrapping her long slender arms around his waist and hugging him tightly.

"I envy them so much." Ye Qingyu voiced out her true feeling. "I also want everyone to know that we are lovers."

Suddenly tears rolled down her pretty face. She knew that their relationship was forbidden and everyone would not accept their relationship, but still, deep inside her, she desired to act like a normal couple.

Xiao Tian cupped her face and wiped away her tears with his thumbs. With a gentle expression, he spoke in a soft voice. "Even though I can't announce our relationship to everyone, but one day, I will make my women accept our relationship. I promise."

"Un." The jealousy in her heart reduced after hearing his words.

After looking at her beautiful eyes, Xiao Tian brought his face closer to hers.

When Ye Qingyu noticed that Xiao Tian was about to kiss her, she slowly shut her eyes. She really needed a kiss from him to make her heart calm down, or else she could go crazy from jealousy later.

At that time, Xiao Tian only pressed his lips against hers. He had no intention of having a deep kiss with her. It was not like he didn't want to do that, but he wanted to show her that she was always in his heart.

After stopping the kiss, Xiao Tian spoke, "Let's head to the backyard now or else, it will raise suspicion later."

"All right." Ye Qingyu agreed with his words.

After taking the grilling equipment, Xiao Tian and Ye Qingyu went to the backyard.

"The grilling equipment is here." Ye Qingyu said cheerfully. There was not a shred of sadness or jealousy shown on her face as if she didn't cry earlier.

Xiao Tian sighed softly when he saw the expression on her face.

'You are really a strong woman, aunt.'

Xiao Tian was amazed by his aunt's behavior. Even though she was sad and full of jealousy, she didn't show it on her face.

Xiao Tian shifted his gaze from his aunt to his mother. He knew that his mother also felt the same way.

"Tian, clean the grill first, so that we can use it immediately." Ye Xueyin said when she saw Xiao Tian.

"Sure." Xiao Tian replied.

As Xiao Tian was cleaning the grill, Ye Qingyu and the others prepared the ingredients.

After cleaning and heating the grill, Xiao Tian immediately spoke, "The grill is ready. What should we grill first?"

"Little brother, can you bring two tables first." Shi Fei spoke abruptly.

"All right." After saying that, Xiao Tian walked over to his house to take two tables.

Because Liu Ning thought Xiao Tian would need help later, she immediately spoke, "Tian'er, let me help you."

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Tian stopped his footsteps and turned around. With a smile on his face, he answered, "Sure."

When Liu Ning was next to him, Xiao Tian immediately carried her in princess style without giving her any warning.

"Kya.." his actions much surprised her. She didn't expect him to carry her. "You are really a bad boy!"

"A handsome bad boy!" Xiao Tian then walked into his house.

Xiao Tian remembered that there was a medium-sized wooden and plastic table in the kitchen.

When they were in the kitchen, Xiao Tian put her down and spoke, "How is it? My mother and aunt are kind and friendly, right?"

"Yes. They are nice people." Liu Ning was pleased because his family was not like what she thought.

They did not ask about personal matters and also treated her nicely. She even regretted having bad thoughts on them earlier.

"I'm sure you can get along well with my family later." Xiao Tian spoke and paused for a second before finally, he continued, "Don't think about weird things and just talk to them. I believe you can get along with them in no time."

"Thank you for introducing me to your family." With him introducing her to his family, Liu Ning could tell that Xiao Tian was serious with their relationship. That was why she was thrilled.

"It's because I want to live with you forever, but…" Xiao Tian grabbed her chin and rubbed her lips with his right thumb. "I still need to punish you for what you said earlier."

Liu Ning could not help but giggle when Xiao Tian rubbed her lips. At that time, she thought Xiao Tian would kiss her lips again.

"Sure. You can punish me now." After saying that, Liu Ning pouted her lips.
