CHAPTER 390
It was not until 10:40 am the next morning before Li Jing and Ye Cheng woke up. For both of them, yesterday's sexual exercise was something to remember and live for. For Li Jing, it was her first and for Ye Cheng, it was the first and best in a long while.
"Hmm…" Li Jing stretched her arms forward on the bed careful enough not to hit Ye Cheng and wake him up from his sleep. By the time she was done, she turned around on the bed only to see that Ye Cheng's eyes were wide open.
Her lips remained silently parted as she accessed his eyes carefully, making sure he was awake and not sleeping. She reached her hand for his face, taking her time, careful as though she was about to pass through the lion's den and as soon as her fingers came close to his cheek, Ye Cheng blinked.
"Hello love."
"Aaah!" Li Jing screamed a bit, retracting her arms and putting it on her chest as her heart began to beat wildly in her chest.
A lovely smile pulled at the corners of his lips, before he moved his body, bringing himself closer to her and planted a chaste kiss on her forehead first then moved down to the bridge of her nose and finally her lips.
Li Jing blushed. She loved this new way of life.
The fact that she could wake up in the morning and get a kiss from her beloved only made her heart warm and the butterflies n her stomach flutter. "Hey, honey."
"How was your night my love? Did you sleep well?"
"Slept like a baby," Li Jing confessed without any form of restraint.
"Ah, I like that. I did too. But I guess you must be tired huh?" He did not finish talking when he saw his wife yawing again.
A pleasant smile crept up his cheeks again as he stared lovingly at her. Without saying anything, he pulled her in close to himself and kissed her again, then hugged her body close.
It was at this point Li Jing noticed they were still in their birthday suit and her blushed further increased. Her hubby was still erect as he had foreseen.
A thought of what had happened the previous mind flashed before her eyes and she remembered briefly how he had bathed her.
All of this was just so overwhelming that Li Jing almost screamed at the top of her lungs. Just then Yer Cheng pulled back to look into her eyes and found his wife, blushing like a tomato.
"What?"
"Nothing."
"You and I know that is a lie. Tell me, what is the matter, Li Jing?"
"You are still hard down there," she said, using her eyes to point at what she meant.
"Do not worry about him. He would go down on his own. For now, I think I should be more worried about something else."
"What?"
"You are tired, alright love? Sleep again, I would wake you at noon to eat, okay?"
"Okay. But what about you? I want to stay with you."
"Relax, I am not going anywhere yet. I would cuddle you okay?"
Li Jing nodded at him, then closed her eyes, allowing her tiredness to seep in. It did not take long after that for her to really fall asleep as Ye Cheng pulled her close into his waiting arms, cradling her like a babe the best way he could.

On the other hand, it had been a while since Yin Lifen heard from her friend. She had been itching to know how her relationship life was now if she was able to get the cold husband of hers, to love her back.
Ring! Ring!
"Come on baby… Li Jing, pick up the phone already." Her feet tapped away on the white marble floor repeatedly as she waited for Li Jing to answer her call.
"Hello." Yin Lifen's eyes popped wide open. She had least expected to hear that voice out of the blue.
"Umm… hello?" She wasn't so sure as to who it was that answered the call, so she remained quiet till he finally spoke from his end.
"Am I speaking to Yin Lifen?" Ye Cheng asked.
"Yes?"
"Oh, it is I, Ye Cheng."
"Ohh…" She finally released the breath she had no idea she had held until now. "Hi."
"Hi." His calm voice
"Where is Li Jing please?"
"She is sleeping. Is there any problem? I can pass it to her when she wakes up," Ye Cheng suggested.
"Umm no. There isn't. I was just umm… you know. I was just calling to say hello. It has been a while since I last heard from her. Hope she is doing good?"
"Yeah, sure. I would pass on the message once she wakes up."
"Thanks then. Take care of her for me." The moment she finished her request, Yin Lifen ended the call impromptu. She did not want to wait to hear what he had to say just in case he wasn't in a good mood with Li Jing.
Ye Cheng pulled the phone from his ears. His eyes looked at the blank screen for a while before his lips curved upwards into a magical smile.
He was wondering why she acted that way hearing his voice. He suspected something fishy but there did not seem to be anything and that was why he smiled, recalling how Li Jing used to be at times with him.
He stood up from the bed, dropping the phone by Li Jing's side close to the stack of pillows on the bed then made his way to the kitchen.
By the time Li Jing woke up, she was shocked to see that it was exactly 12 noon on the dot with a smiling husband by her side and a certain…
What was that sweet lovely scent she perceived? She pried her eyes further open as the smell assaulted her nose in a mighty way.
Li Jing could no longer bear it and she sat up almost instantly, pulling the covers up to cover her chest and shield her body from his eyes.
Wasting no more time, Li Jing quickly scanned the room for the source of the aroma only for her eyes to land at his side and saw a tray of food seated on the mini table in the room.
After accessing the food on the table, Li Jing peeled her eyes away and looked at Ye Cheng.
He remained sitting on the bed, still wearing his smile looking at her proudly as he awaited her response.
"You made this?"
"Yes."
"Wow. I can almost taste it just from the aroma. I bet you did a great job."
"I am impressed that my wife thinks so. However, I would accept your comments after you have a taste of the food first hand, baby."
"Oh. In that case, then, I guess…what am I waiting for?" She shrugged her shoulders then smiled brightly at him, before settling on the bed and waiting for him to bring her the food, of which he did so readily.
Once the food was by her side, Li Jing picked up her cutleries and dug in.
He sat there just watching his wife eat and savour the taste of the dishes. The look on her face was already making him salivate for his own food as though she was the one who had cooked it and not him.
After having about three spoonfuls in her mouth, Li Jing turned to the side with another spoonful of food and pushed it towards him.
To her surprise, her hubby stood up, and covered the space between them, then held her hand to help guide the spoon to his mouth and then…
GULP!
***
In a matter of days, they were already back home from their small vacation and back to the world of their youth and problems. Meanwhile, as they ran away from their problems for a bit, those that meant them ill, had the advantage to move on with their plans.
All that was left was to locate the couple where ever they were or wait for their arrival and initiate their plans.
So they thought actually. If only they knew that the bond the couple were coming back with, was something stronger than anything they had ever known.
Li Xiu on the other hand finally managed to inform her mother of the new deal that was bought to their table and how it would help them in their revenge on Li Jing and also get some wealth, which may also bring her closer to Ye Cheng and she could steal him as she stole Duan Tian.
To them, the plan was perfect. All that remained was to see the boss behind the scene and get acquainted with whom they were working for.
