Chapter 152 - Let Me Teach You!
"Okay, if you do not believe me, then ask Hu Jingguo," Ying Lili proclaimed.
"What?" Sheng Li's facial expressions changed immediately. "Why do I need to ask him?" Sheng Li asked as he sat upon the bed.
"I had massaged his head. Even he said that I possess magical hands. Go ask him if you do not believe my words," Ying Lili stated.
"You cannot massage his head! How could you do this?" Sheng Li was now fuming in anger. Ying Lili could not touch any other man than him. How could she talk so casually about this? Did her late father not tell his daughter not to do such things? Many questions ran into Sheng Li's mind in that brief moment.
"I did the massage like last year," he heard Ying Lili.
"Don't talk about him. How many times did I tell you not to talk about other men in front of me?" Sheng Li muttered and moved towards Ying Lili. He quickly laid down on Ying Lili's lap, which startled Ying Lili. "Give me a massage from your magical hands," Sheng Li said and closed his eyes.
Ying Lili smiled. "Let me open the bun first," Ying Lili stated and took out the pin. Opening the bun, Ying Lili found out that Sheng Li's hair was smoother than hers. "Your hair is nice," Ying Lili said and placed her hands on his cheeks. "Just move a little."
Sheng Li did so and opened his eyes. Ying Lili had placed her fingers on Sheng Li's head and was moving them gently. It was relaxing. She indeed knew how to massage, but Sheng Li was wondering if Ying Lili let Hu Jingguo lay down on her lap, so he asked Ying Lili about that.
"Hmm."
Sheng Li clenched his fist. "Is he crazy? How could he let my wife massage his damn head?" Sheng Li thought. "Wait, a year ago Lili was not my wife." He clenched his fist.
"Close your eyes. You will feel good," Ying Lili softly said. Sheng Li lifted his eyes and looked at Ying Lili. She had a tiny smile on her lips as she was moving her soft fingers around Sheng Li's forehead. For a second, Sheng Li was mesmerized to see her.
He caught Ying Lili's hand, which startled her. "What happened? Did you not like it?" Ying Lili asked when Sheng Li sat up and pulled her closer to him. Ying Lili was bewildered seeing such an act of Sheng Li.
She widened her eyes and asked him what happened.
Sheng Li kept gazing into her eyes, which were sparkling for him. He placed his hand on Ying Lili's cheek and caressed it. "We were interrupted last night by him," Sheng Li said.
"Huh?"
Sheng Li moved his face closer to Ying Lili as he looked at her lips. It seemed to him that those rosy lips were inviting him to savor their taste. That was tempting to him.
He lifted his eyes and gazed into the eyes of Ying Lili. "I want to kiss you… badly," he whispered against her lips. Ying Lili clutched her dress skirt tightly because she did not know what to reply. Even though she wanted him to kiss her, what if he did not confess to her? That was the only insecurity in her mind.
"Hmm." Nevertheless, she permitted Sheng Li who smiled and placed his lips on Ying Lili. Sheng Li had kissed her before too, but during those times it was without Ying Lili's permission or because of some emergencies. Those kisses were never from his heart, but out of compulsion.
At this moment, it was different. There were feelings but he was not ready to accept them, still with this kiss he wanted to let Ying Lili know that she was his now.
Ying Lili had tightly shut her eyes, but this time she was not resisting instead she wanted to feel an actual kiss. As soon as Sheng Li's lips landed on hers, she felt a spark that ran throughout her body. He did not even go further, but the feeling built inside her was different. The moment Sheng Li moved his lips on hers, her heart exploded, and she could feel how her heart was pounding.
Sheng Li waited for Ying Lili to respond to his kiss. He knew Ying Lili was inexperienced in all this, so he waited till she moved her lips slightly. Though it was not what he wanted, he was okay with it because he could feel that the kiss was from Ying Lili's heart. His hand traveled to Ying Lili's nape and pulled her further, closer.
Slightly moving away from her lips, Sheng Li whispered, "Let me teach you how to kiss." With that Sheng Li almost kissed her when he heard the loud voice of Hu Jingguo who was calling for him and it felt to him that he had entered the chamber. The other second he was pushed by Ying Lili and he fell on the mattress while Ying Lili moved back.
"Crown Prince, General Wang told me that you want to learn the Hand Knife game from me," Jingguo said with a wide smile and stopped near the beaded curtain hanging at the second door. He saw the Crown Prince was lying on the mattress and the Crown Princess was sitting away from him.
'Did they fight again?' Hu Jingguo thought.
"I will come later," Hu Jingguo announced when he heard the loud voice of Sheng Li.
"Don't even dare to move an inch," Sheng Li bellowed at him. Hu Jingguo gulped when he saw Sheng Li had come down from the bed and was coming towards him. He wanted to run away from there, but he felt like his feet were glued to the ground.
Before Hu Jingguo's reflex could act, Sheng Li gripped his neck. Ying Lili was shocked to see that, so she ran to Sheng Li and told him to let Jingguo go.
'I want to kill this man. How dare he ruin our precious kiss? This is the third time he did this crime.' Sheng Li thought in his mind when he saw Hu Jingguo was struggling for air. He let go of his grip from Jingguo's neck and he pushed him such that he fell on the floor.
Jingguo was coughing loudly when Ying Lili stepped forward, but Sheng Li caught her arm. "Do not even think of touching him. I will kill him if you do so," Sheng Li threatened Ying Lili.
"Your highness, I am fine." Ying Lili heard Hu Jingguo say as he crawled back till he reached the door. He stood up and ran out from there.
Ying Lili was angry at Sheng Li now. "Why did you do that? How could you be so mean to the person who did not do anything wrong?" Ying Lili queried Sheng Li.
"Because he ruined a precious moment between us. I am mean and I will be mean if he keeps acting like this," Sheng Li pronounced. Ying Lili found that Sheng Li was infuriated, so she did not ignite his anger instead she wanted to vanish it.
Ying Lili grabbed Sheng Li's hand and caressed it. "Don't be angry. You don't look good when you are angry," Ying Lili softly said and tiptoed to kiss Sheng Li's right cheek. Sheng Li's anger had gone, but not completely. His mood was ruined, so he left the Chamber without saying anything to Ying Lili.
