Chapter 323 – Great God, I heard you’re going to travel a thousand li to deliver (End)
This person is just one tail short of wagging.
Yan Luo felt the soreness in her body and couldn’t resist raising a hand to pinch his cheek. Yet he eagerly leaned in again, his tone carrying a hint of coquettishness as he called out, “Luoluo, Luoluo.”
His warm breath fell against her neck. Feeling drowsy, Yan Luo sleepily pushed him away.
But he came back once more, wrapping her in a bear hug, his hands restlessly wandering. A trace of mischief curled at his lips as he whispered, “Luoluo, who do you think is the top?”
“I am.” Yan Luo half-closed her eyes in exhaustion and smacked him on the head.
Fang Shi pursed his lips slightly but eventually gave up on the question, at least for now. Watching her drift into drowsiness, he leaned in again, his voice carrying a coaxing lilt.
“Say you like me, won’t you?”
Even after coming this far, Yan Luo’s personality wouldn’t allow her to say such things easily.
The person beside her was buzzing in her ear like a fly, making it impossible to fall asleep. So annoying.
She turned over in his arms and muttered sleepily, “Mmm… like you.”
He had only been teasing, not expecting much, so when those words came out of nowhere, Fang Shi stiffened slightly. Watching Yan Luo already deep in slumber, he hesitated, struggled, and then, unable to help himself, boldly shook her awake.
“What are you doing?” Yan Luo, disturbed again, raised a hand and smacked his face. But before she could pull back, he guided her hand forward. A cool object brushed her fingertip and slid onto her ring finger.
“Say it again, won’t you?”
“Say what?” Yan Luo opened her eyes and looked at him.
Fang Shi’s face was completely serious.
“Say you like me.”
“Mmm, like me.”
Fang Shi : …
“Pfft—” Yan Luo couldn’t hold back her laughter. She reached up and pinched his face, tilting her head as she teased, “Have you been learning to cook lately? I heard your fans think you’re good at managing household like a butler.”
“It’s all because of you.” Fang Shi sulked as he pulled her back into his arms, rubbing his head against her.
Yan Luo’s body had never fully recovered from the lingering effects of a severe illness in childhood. No matter how much she trained or took care of herself, she remained fragile, prone to falling ill at the slightest disturbance.
After witnessing this several times, Fang Shi became meticulous in looking after her.
He even invested in a farm, ensuring that all the vegetables and meat they consumed came from a source he could personally control, carefully managing her health.
Yan Luo smiled, her lips curling as she raised her hand to look at the small glow on her ring finger under the moonlight. She reached out, pulling him down slightly, bringing her lips close to his ear.
Her eyes flickered with a hint of mischief as she whispered softly.
“I’ve heard, sir, that you’ll make a good butler. For the rest of this Lady’s life… I’d love to leave it to you.”
That was too unfair.
She knew full well that he had no resistance to her, that even his darkest corners had been subdued by her completely. Now, her low voice lingered in his ear, saying such words…
Fang Shi froze for a moment before lifting his gaze.
“Those words… should only be mine to say to you.”
“You and your shamelessness. You mean those silly little love lines you memorized?” Yan Luo pinched his nose. “Go to sleep.”
Fang Shi let out a soft hum of protest but still settled her into his arms. Watching as she was about to drift off, he finally couldn’t hold back, speaking once more—his eyes shimmering as if filled with stardust.
Gentle and devoted, pressing down all the darkness of the past.
“If you’re willing… I can say those foolish love words to you for a lifetime.”
