At this point, Si Yiyan was obviously not being very tender. He was a like wolf who had been starved for a long time and was urgently tearing into its prey.
“You were going to wear that beautiful gown out and seduce other men, weren’t you?” Si Yiyan whispered hoarsely, his voice as low and threatening as that of a growling beast. It was as if he would tear her apart if she dared to utter the word “yes”.
Wen Xinya clutched at the sheets beneath her and cried out. “No, I didn’t… I really didn’t… I was just talking nonsense. I didn’t go out and seduce other men…”
She never expected that he would be so vengeful. That message had been sent over a month ago, but he still remembered it so clearly.
Wen Xinya was somewhat astounded by how petty a man’s heart could be.
She started to regret her own reckless actions.
“Apart from me, who else did you wish to seduce?” Si Yiyan’s eyes were bloodshot with rage.
He was obviously unwilling to hear her explanations. He just wanted to use his actions to show his censure.
“I don’t want to seduce anyone… I really don’t, I… I just wish to seduce you.” Wen Xinya was already blubbering mindlessly. All she could think about was trying to appease his anger.
She was completely helpless when this man raged.
“There is no one else, there is only you…”
“I want to wear that beautiful gown just to seduce only you…”
“Really, I don’t like any other men…”
Wen Xinya cried endlessly as she kept explaining herself. She just wished to escape from his out-of-control desire. She also didn’t want him to misunderstand her.
“I only said those words to make you come home quicker…”
“I missed you too much…”
“You were constantly on my mind…”
“I was worried you were injured, afraid that you met with some accident…”
“I just want you to remain forever by my side, never ever going anywhere else…”
“I think I can never leave you from now on…”
“Yan, I love you…”
She cried until her voice was completely hoarse, as she poured out all the pain and longing she had endured during the time they were separated, as she expressed her intense love for him.
Si Yiyan was stunned. This was the first time he felt such crazed passion from her. He seldom sweated, but he was now so agitated that he was completely drenched. Drops of his sweat dripped onto her body.
Wen Xinya shrieked. “I really can’t take it anymore… I am thirsty…”
Wen Xinya had been sweating nonstop during this six-hour long intense workout. She was totally dehydrated, and her mouth and throat felt extremely dry.
She felt like a traveler in the desert, yearning to see a green oasis.
Si Yiyan gently coaxed her. “Darling, bear with it. I will be done very soon…”
Si Yiyan continued to cling onto her, unwilling to let her go. It was obvious just how fiercely the fire burned within him.
Just as Wen Xinya thought she was about to die of thirst, the person pressing onto her shifted away.
Having suddenly lost the weight and warmth of a man, her sweaty, sticky body felt as empty as a desolated ruins.
“Si Yiyan…”
She cried out in panic. Her voice was dry and raspy and didn’t sound like her at all.
“I am here…”
Si Yiyan’s voice echoed by her ear. He flipped her over so that she was now lying on her back.
Soon after, he pressed down heavily on her lips.
A slightly gamy, milky liquid flowed down from Si Yiyan’s lips into her own.
Wen Xinya felt like a dehydrated traveler in the desert who caught her first glimpse of a green oasis. Tears of joy sprung up in her eyes.
“Give me…”
Seduced by Si Yiyan, her parched tongue pushed upwards, hoping to get more moisture.
“Ha…”
Si Yiyan gave a low laugh, as he continued teasing her with his tongue.
“I want more. I am really very thirsty…” That vague bit of moisture was completely unable to satisfy Wen Xinya’s thirst.
Si Yiyan kissed her deeply.
The milk-like liquid once against entered her lips, nourishing Wen Xinya’s dehydrated body. The wondrous taste made her murmur with pleasure.
Water was indeed the source of life.
Wen Xinya was truly parched. Si Yiyan fed her over a dozen times before she was finally satiated.
“Did it taste good?” Si Yiyan asked with a chuckle.
Wen Xinya panted. “It tasted… mmm… a bit weird!”
She suddenly realized he hadn’t fed her with water. A lingering, gamy taste was left on her tongue, not pleasant but not entirely unbearable. It tasted like freshly-squeezed goat’s milk, but a bit sweeter.
“Do you want to know what it is?” Si Yiyan flipped her over again so that she now laid face down on the bed. His hot lips left a trail of wet kisses down her spine.
She asked in a raspy voice, “What is it?”
Having had a breather, Si Yiyan was now starting to gear up again. Wen Xinya felt rather exasperated, but perhaps because she was now well-hydrated, she didn’t feel as tortured as before.
Si Yiyan answered, “The specialty of desert countries: camel’s milk.”
For some reason, Wen Xinya suddenly felt a hot flush creep throughout her body.
…That’s because to them, camel milk is a natural aphrodisiac. It can boost a man’s prowess such that even those over the age fifty could marry several young, pretty wives.
…I am now drinking camel milk, but you are not by my side.
…The men in the desert country told me a lot. The local men are strong and do not fall. They have a secret to controlling wives. Wait for me to return.
All the words which Si Yiyan told her over the phone when he was in the Middle East suddenly surfaced in her mind. She blushed deeply and couldn’t resist glaring at him.
“Camel’s milk is a natural aphrodisiac. I personally tested it, it’s very effective!”
It was indeed very effective. He probably drank too much camel’s milk and got fired up every time he thought of her. He kept thinking that the moment he returned home, he must indulge himself to his heart’s content.
“Really… really?” Wen Xinya’s thoughts started drifting again as she felt his passion.
Si Yiyan reached for the water flask and took a mouthful of camel’s milk, before feeding it to her, sharing with her the taste of it. The white camel’s milk flowed through their kiss, leaking out from the corners of Wen Xinya’s lips.
The color white had suddenly taken on an ambiguous meaning now.
Very quickly, she would know what Si Yiyan meant by “very effective”.
“The next time I head over to the Middle East, I must definitely bring you with me!” Si Yiyan murmured by her ear. His lips moved down her back slowly and meticulously.
