"You're back!" Lory wrapped his arms around Zhao Li Xin's waist as he entered the room.
Zhao Li Xin's cold expression melted like ice touched by the sunlight, "Why do you always stay up late at night?" Zhao Li Xin reprimand her but his voice was filled with indulgence then he wrapped his arms around Lory's slender waist.
"I want to sleep with you" Lory smiled brightly.
Zhao Li Xin's eyes widened for a moment then immediately his face turn bright, "Why didn't you say it…." He said in delight while taking off his outer robe and belt at unimaginable speed.
it was so fast that Zhao Li Xin was able to take off three layers of his robes including the belt in less than three seconds.
Lory was amazed but then realizes where this going, "Wa…wait, that's not what I meant!" Lory clenched his last layer of robe before he took it off completely, "There's something I want to talk to you!" Lory quickly explains herself.
Zhao Li Xin frowned, still he listens to her, "Oh, what's wrong?" he ask.
"I heard you didn't invite your master to our wedding?" Lory carefully asks knowing how delicate the relationship between Zhao Li Xin and Tian Meng Ji know.
"Former master" he corrected Lory.
"Okay, your former master" Lory rolled her eyes tiredly at his stubbornness. "Soo....why don't you invite him...?" Lory nervously said.
Zhao Li Xin's narrowed his eyes then he ask inquisitively, "Why? Did he ask you to persuade, what else he said?"
Lory immediately shook his head "No – no, it's not like that! he didn't ask me for anything!" Lory anxiously waved her hands, "We've been talked and we resolved some misunderstandings between us so everything is okay now, and your master isn't that bad, he can be stubborn and quite petty but that doesn't make him a bad person, right?"
Zhao Li Xin pressed his lips into a thin line as he is still in doubt "I don't know… I've already made my decision, as the sect leader I can't change my decision carelessly" he firmly said.
'Is that true? I think you are quite flexible!' Lory tilted her head.
Lory knew Zhao Li Xin was teasing her, Lory cross her arms and blow her cheeks "Alright, what do you want me to do?" Lory pouted her lips in upset and Zhao Li Xin chuckled at her adorable angry face so he gently pressed his lips to her protruding lips.
Lory was surprised for a moment before she returned the kiss in the same manner, after a while, Zhao Li Xin broke the kiss then spoke with a hoarse voice, "Do you know about honey pot tactics?" he smiled seductively. Zhao Li Xin simply wanted Lory to make an effort to seduce him, but Zhao Li Xin would never know Lory's answer would stir him up like a leaf sucked in a whirlpool.
Meanwhile, Lory was blinded by Zhao Li Xin's dazzling smile, she lost her vigilance and replied innocently, "Yes!"
Fred said: "Don't ask a question if you're not ready to hear the answer.
Fargo said: "Choose your answer wisely"
Obviously, Zhao Li Xin had never heard of this while in Lory's case, well.. it slipped her mind.
"Oh, really..." Zhao Li Xin hissed and the charming smile he had replaced by a scary smile "Have you ever practiced that tactic with other men?" The aura in the room suddenly became heavy and the temperature rose drastically.
Lory realized she had made a grave mistake, her eyes wandering for excuses while Zhao Li Xin's gaze pierced through his skull like a tiger waiting for a deer to make a move. Lory wondered if she should pretend to be dead now?
Lory's silence made Zhao Li Xin's expression darken like ebony "Who are you practicing this tactic with?" Zhao Li Xin's voice grew deeper and dangerous.
Lory was almost certain that if they were in his old world, Zhao Li Xin would have tracked down all those men one by one and killed them all, luckily they're not.
Lory gulped nervously then quickly explained himself "No, it's not like that! I never overdo anything, as far as I do I just go out to dinner or dance, that's all!" Lory thought this would appease Zhao Li Xin but he was wrong.
"Dinner and Dance!" Zhao Li Xin screamed as smoldering anger pierced through him.
Lory didn't know how she made Zhao Li Xin enrage it seemed the more she tried to explain the angrier he got.
"What kind of dance are we talking about here, is it involve physical contact, is it close? how close we are talking about here?" Zhao Li Xin pinched her chin while holding his breath suppressing his anger.
Even though his pinch was gentle and did not hurt at all, Lory was unable to let go of her face from his fingers, therefore only Lory eyes moved left and right as she frantically try to find an excused, meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin waited for his answer with his eyes blazed with utter jealousy.
"Erm…." Lory should feel nervous by now and she did but there is another thought creeping into her mind, she thought Zhao Li Xin is so sexy right now!
"Lorient!" Zhao Li Xin called out to her in a low monotone voice.
Lory suddenly awakens from her daze, "It's nothing, I always take Girsha with me, and my brothers are also watching me from afar so nothing excessive can happen to me!" Lory's explanation made sense so Zhao Li Xin's face relaxed slightly but suddenly his expression worsened again.
Zhao Li Xin knew the rules in Lory's world were much loose so the standard might be lower than this world, "You haven't explained about the dance, yet"
"And I will not!" Lory screams inwardly.
Under his pressuring gaze, Lory had no chance to get away from this "It was nothing, it just two people facing each other in appropriated distance and moving in the same rhythm following the music"
Zhao Li Xin narrows his eyes, Lory's explanation didn't sound too bad but he still has his doubt "It's that true?" he probes.
"Yes! Lory firmly said.
'If you live in eighteen century' she mutters inside her head.
Lory tugs on Zhao Li Xin's sleeve "Don't be angry, it's all in the past...." Lory sincerely pleads. who would have thought she would marry such a conservative man. Lory didn't even think she would marry someone outside her country let alone her world.
Zhao Li Xin grumbled while scratching his head "No, I'm not angry, I'm just… annoyed, it's not your fault" even though he was still upset but he realize he couldn't blame Lory because they were from two different worlds who grew up with different value and cultures. Zhao Li Xin let out a long sigh then he sat down and put Lory on his lap "But you can't do that anymore..."
"Of course not, I don't..." Lory suddenly closed his mouth as soon as he remembered the situation with Gu Lian Fu and Wei Zu Tian. Lory scratched her nose awkwardly. "Well, it happened because it was part of my duty as the royal family, nothing more" she finished her words without further explanation.
Zhao Li Xin took a deep breath, it was true that it was all in the past. Zhao Li Xin feels embarrassed about how he could easily flare up with something so small, and now he felt guilty for being angry with her. Zhao Li Xin suddenly lifted Lory off the floor and placed her on his lap "Sorry for raising my voice, did I scare you?" he sincerely apologized.
Lory then stifled a laugh, should she tell him he looks very sexy when he acts domineering towards her and wish he will do that more often. Lory thought she must be crazy to think like that, Lory suddenly kissed his jaw, and Zhao Li Xin was stunned by her sudden moves Lory then kissed his lower lip in a playful manner.
"Lory?" Zhao Li Xin couldn't understand his wife's actions.
"My husband is so handsome when he's angry~" Lory giggled then kissed his chin up to his neck and collarbones immediately making Zhao Li Xin's body stiffen.
"Lory..." Zhao Li Xin groaned helplessly as she poured him kisses without caring how it would make him lose his senses.
Lory didn't care about Zhao Li Xin's troubles because his flushed face only made her want to tease him even further. It was funny to Zhao Li Xin thought she would afraid of him when the truth is Lory never felt that way about him, there might be times when he was wary with his sudden presence but it was only last for a moment and when their eyes locked at each other the strange feeling grew within her like a sprout relentlessly pushing itself to the surface ground, or like gravity pulling him closer without giving her a chance to fight back.
Afraid? That's nonsense!
It was love at first sight.
Seduced by Lory his body burned like a wildfire and everything became blurry only her face was crystal clear "Lory if you keep doing this I promise you that you won't be able to walk tomorrow"
Lory looked at him with misty eyes and smiled "It's okay, I have nothing to do tomorrow"
All the reasons and self restrain in his mind snapped just like that, Zhao Li Xin gritted his teeth then he got up from the chair while carrying her with long strides onto the bed then he slowly place her on the bed and whisper in a hoarse voice "Don't blame me tomorrow since you asked for this!"
