Chapter 9 - Arc I: The Sedan Chair Sent to The Wrong Bridal Chamber(9)

Three days later, when Li Yuan returned to her maiden house, the Ruan family didn’t reject Chen Yichen because of his appearance, but rather accepted him very warmly.

Father Ruan and the Ruan family’s eldest son received Chen Yichen, while Mother Ruan held Li Yuan’s hand and took her to the backyard to inquire about Chen Yichen’s attitude towards her in detail.

“General Chen looks like a hard-to-talk person. But from the way he helped you get out of the sedan just now, one can see that he is very pleased with you. Your father, brother, and I couldn’t get a wink of sleep these days. We all were so anxious because we didn’t know how this unexpected son-in-law would treat you. Now seeing you both like this, we can rest assured.”

“Mother, he is very good to me. Although he is fierce to others, he has never been fierce to me.” Li Yuan shyly lowered her head.

“That’s good. As long as he treats you well, no matter what he looks like from outside, it doesn’t matter to us. In fact, your father and brother originally preferred General Chen. But you before…..didn’t say anything about this. Now we are quite satisfied with the result. By the way, how does the son-in-law treat you at night? Are you really able to handle it?”

“Mother…” Li Yuan swallowed. “What are you talking about?”

“What are you so shy about? You are married now. These things must be understood early. All men covet for freshness. If you can’t satisfy him, he will bring women from outside to anger you. Then that day wouldn’t you be the only one who will be sad? It’s better to tie your husband closely to your side so that he won’t be interested in any woman other than you.”

Mother Ruan took out a clothbound book from a small box. As she opened it before Li Yuan, the life-like illustrations inside made her mouth dry.

Chen Yichen had been busy with his official duties these days. Except for the wedding night, he had been coming back very late these days. She didn’t think there was much at first, but now with Mother Ruan’s warning, she suddenly felt a little crisis.

Even though they were newly married, he did not show much interest in her. Wouldn’t it become even worse in the future? Her task was to collect the essence of men. So far, her progress was very slow!

In the carriage, Li Yuan and Chen Yichen sat face to face. Chen Yichen closed his eyes and nodded off to sleep. Li Yuan peeped at the man sitting opposite her from time to time.

Did he really not have even a little bit of attraction towards her? Otherwise, why wouldn’t he even look at her? This was still their honeymoon period. Like this wouldn’t she be thrown into the cold courtyard in the future?

Boom! The carriage bumped all of a sudden.

Li Yuan’s body tumbled and fell over Chen Yichen.

Wuu! Her nose bumped against his chest and suddenly became very sore and painful.

“It hurts.”

Chen Yichen opened his eyes and helped the little woman up.

Her nose was a bright red and her expressive eyes shone with tears, making her look very pitiful.

“Husband…”

The voice was delicate, like a kitten in heat. Chen Yichen’s eyes deepened a little.

He had lost his self-control at the wedding night and had gone completely wild, which eventually hurt her. These days, as he was busy with his official duties, he went out early and returned late, as he didn’t want her to get hurt again. But now it seemed that the little kitten had completely healed. Seeing her like this, heat started to pool down his lower body.

“Where does it hurt?” Chen Yichen hugged her in his arms.

Li Yuan’s cheeks flushed, “The nose hurts and it almost bled. Husband, what are you doing?”

Chen Yichen held her small butt in his arms.

His big palm reached into her yijin1 and held her big white breast in his hand.

The plump breast in his big palm was soft and tender. The little red cherries had become hard and were already excited.

“Husband, someone will see us.”

The carriage was still moving. As the wind blew, the curtains of the carriage fluttered, rising up and down. People outside could easily see what was happening inside.

“What are you afraid of? Who would see when the carriage is going so fast?”
