Han Li woke up early in the morning. As the light of the early sun filtered in through the glassed windows and curtains, he sat up, stretched, and looked to his side. Like a goddess incarnate, Liyue was lying there, sleeping nakedly with an exhausted visage.
"What a beauty!" Han Li sighed.
He leaned towards her and wrapped a solid hand around her. Then, he kissed her cheek. She squirmed slightly, filled with agitation—her whole body must be sore to feel agitated from a kiss. Not disturbing her, he took back the hand around her and, smiling to himself, slowly walked out of the bed and got dressed.
Liyue really had done a number on him, too. He had never had someone touch his Existence—fuck, he didn't even know such a thing existed. And yesterday, even though Liyue couldn't scratch his back to hell, she had made his Existence sweat.
He covered her in a blanket. Even in her exhausted sleep, he could feel her hands roaming around the bed as if in search of something, and he placed a hand curiously on hers. She clung to it and immediately seemed to calm down.
"Really now?" Han Li smiled wryly.
Extricating himself from Liyue was a bit hard, but not too much. Yet, he had just taken her virginity yesterday, and she really cared about that. If she woke up and didn't see him by her side, she would probably be devastated.
He did want to go see his Mother to figure out what that golden stuff in her Existence was, but it seemed Liyue didn't want to let him go—mentally and physically.
Sighing, he looked at her relaxedly. Her fair cheeks were still flushed even to this moment; there was also a morning puffiness to them that made one want to take a bite.
If she didn't wake up in time for training, usually, he would come to her room and throw her into the cold temple pond by the side of the main temple; he smiled as he remembered that. But Liyue was a diligent person. He had rarely had to do that.
But today, of course, it was different.
He couldn't just wake her up after she went through all of that yesterday, right?
That would be too dismissive, even for him.
Han Li looked at the palm tightly clinging on to his hand. Then, he laid his head on her bosom and went back to sleep in a sitting position outside the bed, with her chest as his comfy pillow.
She hugged his face tight and threw kisses all across his hair.
"Not you, Big B—Husband. It's me. I just became a bit jealous. And a bit afraid."
Han Li pulled his face out of her hug. Looking into her teary face.
"You woke up after our first night, and the first thing you did was cry. Really," he shook his head. "So what made you so jealous?"
She pouted. "You don't have to know that. It's my secret."
Even though she said it, she knew he would probably figure the secret out when they had sex once more.
When their Existence melded together in sex, they would know everything they thought about each other—Everything meant every little thing they loved and hated about each other. Of course, she could choose not to meld with him next time, but she doubted she would be able to resist that.
Han Li raised an eyebrow and threw aside the bedsheets covering her, and her naked body was revealed. As tender as it had been, as beautifully carved. Fair like a goddess descended on the world.
She balled up on herself, hiding her privates and looking askance at him.
"Hubby, you don't plan to do it again, do you? I am already thinking I... probably won't be able to walk properly. I am so sore! If you do it again, forget about me showing up to train for at least a month!"
Her training was surely going to change as she had Evolved; it should be crazy training from now on—like the ones Han Li himself did. She was rather excited to do those.
"I don't plan to do it again now," he smiled at how she sighed in relief. "Get dressed. Let's go around and figure out some secrets."
"I surely can't walk," she sighed exaggeratedly. "Maybe if you carry me on your back like you carry Mother Yue, I'll follow."
"Already need me to pamper you, huh?"
She smirked. "Indeed. Pamper your wife!"
He could only smile and help her dress up in plain monk robes before they left the room, and she was on his back, proudly looking around. Han Li headed straight for Yue Li in quick strides.
