Chapter 43: Asking for Trouble

Di Yelei found himself infatuated, seemingly frozen in place, absolutely immobile.

In his eyes, there was only that fair whiteness, far more tender and smooth than the softest tofu, which was irresistibly enticing. He uncontrollably extended his wandering hand again….

His predatory hand reached out slowly, drawing closer and closer to the white silhouette. Even though it was concealed by her inner clothing, a hint of an alluring shadow, vague and ephemeral, sent his heart pounding.

As his hand stealthily neared the collar of her clothes, Di Yelei felt a wave of umcontrolled excitement!

Taking a deep breath, he aimed for the object of his desire…

“Uh… Ye Lei?”

Liu Sisi moved slightly, her voice seemingly as melodic as a singing oriole, startling Di Yelei and making him jump!

He quickly withdrew his hand!

Heaven!

If he were caught, he would be utterly shameless!

Di Yelei finally awakened from his own nightmarish desires, wiping off the imaginary sweat. He had just scared himself!

He couldn’t bear to imagine how it would feel to be looked at by Sisi with strange eyes.

Di Yelei cleared his throat, “Sisi, what’s wrong?”

After what seemed like a struggle, Liu Sisi opened her eyes just a crack, “Ye Lei, I’m thirsty! I want to drink water.”

“Alright, wait for me. I’ll get it for you.”

His voice, softer than he himself perceived, was as gentle as water.

Entering the kitchen, he scooped up a large ladle of well water, gulping it down, managing to suppress the fiery desires within him.

He had obviously been enchanted just before! That girl’s charm was a temptation he simply couldn’t resist!

Once he finally calmed down a bit, he walked into the room with the cooled boiled water, “Sisi, wake up and drink water, Sisi.”

The drowsy Liu Sisi moved her lips, her eyes still refusing to open.

“Sisi, come now, get up quickly and drink the water.”

Di Yelei put down the large bowl in his hand and carefully helped Liu Sisi to sit up.

The touch of her delicate, tender skin drove his heart wild again. However, he had to suppress his raging emotions, telling her in a steady voice, “Sisi, here, drink water quickly.”

“Um——”

The constant urging near her ear made Liu Sisi’s eyebrows furrow. Battling between the need for water and the urge to doze off, she finally gathered the strength to open her eyes a little.

“Ye… Lei.”

Her sweetly aromatic breath made Di Yelei’s heart flutter. He had to forcefully pull his attention back, quieting his rushing thoughts before lifting the large bowl, “I’m here, Sisi, drink water.”

The cool rim of the bowl at her lips brought the thirsty Liu Sisi some clarity. She reached out to hold the bowl and couldn’t help but take a big gulp of water.

“Cough cough cough! Cough cough…”

The sudden rush of cool water in her windpipe sent Liu Sisi into a violent bout of coughing, her eyes tearing up. It took her a while to catch her breath and finally managed to chase away her sleepiness.

“Look at you, how can you be so careless? You even choke on water, goodness you!”

Di Yelei repeatedly patted Liu Sisi’s back, his heart aching inexplicably. Her body was incredibly frail.

“No more! I was just careless.”

Liu Sisi stuck her tongue out and plunged her head back into the bowl. This time, she sipped slowly until she had drunk over half the bowl of water before she finally stopped.

“Maybe I added too much salt to the dinner and got really thirsty, so you had to get up in the middle of the night to pour me water.” Liu Sisi felt somewhat embarrassed.

“It’s just a small effort, no big deal. You should quickly go to sleep now, it’s getting late,” Di Yelei’s voice was very husky.

It was really not his fault. After the commotion just now, Liu Sisi’s inner garment’s collar had loosened. Looking down her collar from where he was hugging her, he could see a beautiful sight; bouncy, quivering flesh, pink and enchanting, radiating exquisite attraction.

His previously subsided excitement quickly aroused, clamoring wildly, craving for more.

“Go to sleep quickly. I’ll put the bowl in the kitchen.”

Di Yelei forcefully pushed Liu Sisi away from him, almost fleeing in haste.

Pushed away all of a sudden, Liu Sisi nearly stumbled, looking puzzled in the direction of Di Yelei’s hasty departure.

What happened?

Did he get angry because the act of pouring me the boiling water somehow hurt his macho image?

He’s too sensitive!

Thinking this, Liu Sisi defiantly lay down on the pillow, her face turned towards the wall, and shut her eyes to continue sleeping. However, after all the fuss, her sleepiness had flown to Java Country – she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Di Yelei didn’t return to the room to sleep for a long time. It seemed he was genuinely upset. Such a man was absolutely speechless!

Liu Sisi made a secret vow: next time, even if she were dying of thirst, she would definitely not call for him!

Pouring bucket after bucket of cold water on himself, Di Yelei was drenched from head to toe. Even the chilly well water in June couldn’t alleviate the overwhelming heat he was feeling.

Especially that bewitching fire in his heart—so hot it left him speechless!

He had been in turmoil for a while, feeling helpless and secretly thinking that he must quickly restore Sisi’s health, he was getting impatient!

When he finally entered the room, he saw Sisi sleeping facing the wall.

Even after he saw her exposed curves earlier, his body ached again!

It seems taking a cold shower was completely useless. How was he supposed to sleep now!?

Quietly taking off his shoes and getting into bed, he carefully slept as far away from Liu Sisi as possible, at the very edge of the wide bed, his back towards Liu Sisi, regretting his decision immensely.

Sleeping in the same bed seemed to be like inviting punishment!

Liu Sisi hadn’t fallen asleep at all.

Originally, she was considering what had happened just now in her mind. They usually slept embracing each other, and even if she wanted to escape from his arms, she would be pulled back. But now, with almost two beds’ width of distance between the two of them, she couldn’t help but overthink!

At that moment, she couldn’t figure out the real reason why Di Yelei was avoiding her. She kept blaming that petty man in her heart, and was tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

The worst part was that, due to drinking too much water, she felt the need to use the restroom again. But to go to the restroom, she would have to step over Di Yelei, who was sleeping on the outside of the bed.

No, I’d better not go. I need to hold it in! However, the increasingly intense urge to urinate was making her lower abdomen more and more uncomfortable, causing her to subconsciously clench her legs together.
