Daddy, Mommy Ran Away - Chapter 144 - Why Do You Like Me
Time flew by quickly. For a month, An Ruoxi was forced to stay inside the villa, not allowed to step outside.
The wedding was being planned, with the engagement party set for a month after she finished her confinement period, while the wedding date was still being decided.
The fashion show was also approaching. Although An Ruoxi didn’t participate in the full shoot, the photos she had originally taken were still featured on the cover of Xiu Ke, and the results were said to be excellent.
Leng Haoyin’s life had become very routine, with two points forming a straight line: either at the company or at the villa with her. The Golden Triangle land was entering the final bidding stage, yet Leng Haoyin remained leisurely, often skipping work to stay home with her. Leng Chuyan seemed to turn a blind eye to this, not showing any intention of reprimanding him.
During this period, Moli and Qiuling came to chat with her whenever they had free time. Shen Jun and Mai Shuo also visited several times, but Mai Shuo had it rough; whenever he encountered Moli, he would be chased down.
Ouyang Pei and Zuo Junchen seemed to have disappeared, not appearing before her.
The happiest ones during this time were the three children. They were either causing chaos at home or at the Leng Family old mansion with Leng Chuyan, often making Leng Chuyan so angry that he would blow his beard and glare.
During this time, while An Ruoxi was enjoying happiness, she always felt like something was missing in her heart. She felt a vague sense of unease, fearing that happiness had come too suddenly and might vanish like bubbles in the wind.
Leng Haoyin held An Ruoxi every night, with her warm and fragrant body in his arms, but he couldn’t touch her. He had been abstinent for a whole month, nearly going insane, unable to sleep through the night, afraid of waking her, and unable to get up to take a cold shower, which was driving him crazy.
Today marked exactly one month.
In the early morning, before the sky had fully brightened, An Ruoxi felt something moving around on her body.
“Mm.” She responded vaguely, without any intention of waking up, curling her body closer to his embrace to find a comfortable position and continue sleeping, her head heavy with sleep.
In her drowsy state, she didn’t notice the man’s body stiffening instantly due to her unconscious movements.
Opening her sleepy eyes, the man’s enlarged handsome face came into view.
“Awake?” His voice was sexy and hoarse, carrying a seductive allure.
Her sleepiness dissipated instantly, and An Ruoxi’s heart trembled with his scorching breath. She suddenly opened her eyes wide and met his deep, dark eyes, which were now swirling with flames, seemingly ready to consume her.
She knew he was dangerous in the morning, and she had experienced it before.
“Sweetheart.” His hoarse voice was so deep it was barely audible, his head buried in An Ruoxi’s shoulder, his warm breath spraying on her neck, and his slightly rough hand slowly caressing her slender waist, gradually covering her soft chest. The extraordinary softness made Leng Haoyin let out a satisfied sigh, his voice filled with infinite longing: “I’ve been abstinent for a month.”
Heaven knows, for the past month, he was afraid he couldn’t control himself and hurt her, always holding her waist without daring to touch her, and now that the day had arrived, could he…
“I can’t hold back anymore.” He reached out and tightly embraced her, his handsome face looking pitiful like a child asking for candy: “I want you.”
Such a straightforward statement made her blush instantly. She quickly tried to retreat, to put some distance between them, but he grabbed her hand, pulling her delicate hand to touch his already painfully swollen desire.
“No…” Her heart trembled, quickly retreating from his embrace, removing his hand from her chest.
“Ah-” She was thoroughly embarrassed, her face red and her neck stiff, stammering: “But… but… it’s only been a month, the doctor said…”
But, is her body ready now?
He took a deep breath, letting go of her hand, infinitely aggrieved but still holding back: “It’s okay, I’ll endure.” Leng Haoyin laughed bitterly, perhaps his charm had diminished, directly ignored by her.
He knew how strong his desire was. The doctor said that this month they couldn’t do any intense exercise, only mild activities. He knew how intense his desire was, afraid that he might accidentally hurt her if he couldn’t control his strength.
He stretched out his long arm and once again tightly embraced her.
An Ruoxi let out a soft moan, lying on his broad chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, the familiar musk scent giving her a sense of security. She closed her eyes, enjoying this subtle moment of happiness.
She had nothing, just like those women said, no looks, no figure, nothing special, and it was all true. Yet, such an outstanding man like him fell in love with such an ordinary girl like her.
She reached out and touched his handsome features, the well-defined and delicate features, as if carved by a knife, so handsome it seemed unreal. His deep black eyes, so profound, were like a cold pool, and every time she met his gaze, her heart trembled. Her soft voice carried countless infatuations: “Leng Haoyin, a man as excellent as you, why do you like me?”
He was stunned, not expecting her to suddenly ask this, his brows furrowing for a moment before relaxing: “I don’t know either. When you came for the interview, I recognized you at first sight when you got off the bus. I think at that moment, my emotions were instinctively drawn to you. Later, as I got to know you step by step, I found you really different from other women. You have a pair of clear eyes, always bare-faced, yet so pure. When I realized the children might be mine, you know how touched I was. You, this fool, a girl in a foreign country with no one to rely on, raised two children on your own. You are so strong, so pure, so kind. How could I not like you, how could I not love you deeply?”
She suddenly felt very moved, her nose tingling, staring blankly at his handsome face, thinking about how well-behaved he had been for the past month, holding her every night, enduring torment, but always holding back, not daring to move his hands and feet.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, his brows furrowing deeper: “Did you ever have someone you liked before?”
“Ah…” Perhaps not expecting him to suddenly ask this, An Ruoxi exclaimed, blinking her big eyes at him, seeing his serious expression.
