How If (Dong Hua And Feng Jiu Story)

19. The greatest debt

Warning: mature conten

Yan Zhi woke up at night feeling pain in her groin. She walked to the bathroom with wobbly steps. Her lower dress was stained with blood.  She lifted it up and saw the blood was still flowing between her legs.

"Ah," Yanzhi grimaced. It's hot and stinging. Her hands gripped the tub, feeling it all and sobbing again. In the end, she tried to brace herself. She and Zhi lan, they were not experienced in this. First impressions were so compelling, so, pain and discomfort result in this.

Yan Zhi wiped the tears in her cheeks then took off her sticky dress and soaked to relieve fatigue and cramps. She loves that man, why should she be sad for this? However, the thing she didn't understand was  Zhi Lan had never claimed his feelings for her and he suddenly felt jealous and felt the urge to touch her.

After taking a bath, Yan Zhi washed the dress that was covered in blood. Maybe the noise woke Zhi Lan up. The man approached her and hugged her from behind. The man was touched to see the blood on her dress, making the soaking water red. "I'm sorry. I didn't think much of it."

Yan Zhi was still rubbing the cloths as she responded, "No need to apologize. In the bottom of my heart, I want it too."

Zhi Lan's hand stopped Yan Zhi's movement who was still rubbing her clothes. They looked at each other for a moment. Zhi Lan held the woman's chin, then kissed her lips gently. Yan Zhi closed her eyes to enjoy the kiss.

"Let's get married," Zhi Lan said in the end. Yan Zhi nodded between happy tears.

They were married under a big party that initiated by Dong Hua Dijun. Years later they fought over the ghost tribe's claim to the throne. They succeeded. The realm of the ghost tribe was under their disposal. During that struggle, Yan Zhi was pregnant several times, but bad luck haunted them so that their baby miscarried. They kept trying for pregnancy while they loved Li ying like their own daughter until Li Ying called them father and mother.

"Haiya, Father is daydreaming again." Li Ying snorted in disgust as she led Yan Zhi to sit in front of Zhi Lan who gasped from his reverie.

Yan Zhi smiled. Zhi Lan arranged a few pillows around the seat for his wife to sit comfortably. After successfully sitting up adjusting to her bloated stomach, Yan Zhi asked him, "What is this prince of mine dreaming about? I hope it's not a pretty woman that this fat wife is jealous of."

Li Ying pouted hearing that.

Zhi Lan grimaced clumsily. "I daydream about many things. And indeed, one of them is a beautiful woman. This woman is very beautiful and is now sitting in front of me."

Yan Zhi blushed hearing that.

"Li Ying, father has told you not to disturb your mother when she is resting."

"I'm not disturbing her, father. Mother herself wanted to see you because she was worried that you were always daydreaming."

Yan Zhi laughed at the father and daughter interaction. She turned to Li Ying then said. "Ying-er, I want to speak to your father. You can study in your room now."

Li ying nodded then she was about to leave the room. Zhi Lan held her back to hand over the papers he had tidied up. "Take this too."

Li ying grumbled. Her hands are full now. She walked out of the room with unsteady steps. Yan Zhi laughed in amusement. Zhi Lan shook his head, "Why is that kid's attitude getting more and more similar to Xiao Yan's?"

"Is that true?"

Zhi Lan nodded then placed himself behind Yan Zhi, offering his chest for Yan Zhi to lean on. Yan Zhi rested her back with a sigh of relief. She turned her head back to get a passionate kiss from her husband. They broke the kiss to look at each other. Zhi Lan caressed his wife's face. Gratitude welled up in his chest for the gift his beautiful wife had given him.
