Chapter 42 - Caught red-handed
Cheng Feng eyes widened as she stared at him. Blood pumped to her face and a deep crimson crept to her puffy cheeks, turning it to a burning tomato. She almost forgot to breathe as she stared at him.
Right at that moment, Li Luxian broke into waves of laughter.
"W-What?", Chen Feng stuttered, still confused and inwardly struggling to steady her heart-beats.
"You-You should have looked at your face", he said and once again broke into fits of laughter.
"Huh?", she blinked and slowly everything sunk in.
Was he making fun of her?
"You! How dare you!"
Blinded by fury, she picked a nearby lamp and threw it at her husband who was too busy laughing. Li Luxian eyes widened as he stared at the incoming lamp. He bent backward to dodge it the last minute. It flew over him by a distance of few inches and hit the wall behind him with a loud crash.
"Woman!", Li Luxian stared at his wife who had gone berserk.
"How dare you make fun of me!", Chen Feng said angrily and picked up another lamp and threw it at him.
Li Luxian stepped to a side and hardly dodged it.
"Calm down!"
She picked a pillow and threw it at him. This time Li Luxian dodged it effortlessly.
"Is this the best you can do?", Li Luxian challenged her smugly with a mocking tone.
Chen Feng threw another pillow but Li Luxian again dodged it, smugly looked back to see it fruitlessly hitting the wall.
"Ha, Ha wife you still need to..."
A pillow hit him square on his face before he could finish the sentence.
Chen Feng broke into laughters.
Li Luxian eyes darkened and his expressions turned serious.
"I was planning to go easy on you but if you really want it in a hard way..", Li Luxian picked up a pillow and punched it, fixing his eyes on Chen Feng.
"Hey, Li Luxian!", Chen Feng said backing away from now scary Li Luxian, chuckling lightly, "You wouldn’t be bad to your wife on your first night of marriage? Would you?"
"You’ve no idea how bad I’m going to be", Li Luxian declared and with that, he threw that pillow at her with hundred times more force than her. Chen Feng hardly dodged it. It hit the side table and knocked off all the things that crashed on the floor with a loud noise.
"Hey, stop", Chen Feng shouted jumping on the bed.
Came another pillow that hit her square on her face and knocked her down with its force making her fall on the bed. Li Luxian took the opportunity to climb onto the bed but before he could capture her, she slipped away and picked up a pillow and threw it at him and tried to get away from the bed.
The pillow, however, couldn’t stop him as he grabbed her ankle and pulled her down. Chen Feng shrieked and tried to grab another pillow to hit him as she fell down on the bed. But the pillow slipped away from her fingers.
"Li Luxian I’m sorry!", Chen Feng laughingly said and continued to struggle to get free from his hold.
"Too late for that wife", Li Luxian said as he ceased her movements by pinning down her arms and smirked down at her.
The bedsheets were messed up during their fighting and rose petals covered both of them.
"Ow! My ankle hurts", Suddenly Chen Feng groaned in pain.
Li Luxian expression instantly changed from playful to worried. He quickly got off her.
"What happened?", he asked in a worried tone.
"I think I sprained it"
"Where?", he asked inspecting her ankle.
"Here"
Just as he lowered his guard, Chen Feng kicked him and threw him off the bed. She burst into laughters.
"Bad move wife", Li Luxian warned getting up.
"Indeed bad for you", Chen Feng laughed some more.
"You are going to pay for that", Li Luxian said angrily.
"We’ll see", Chen Feng jumped out of bed and ran away.
Meanwhile in the neighboring room.
"I don’t think it’s a good idea", Li Quang said. Reluctance was visible in his course of action.
"I know why you are saying this", Li Yuhan rebutted.
"Come on it’s not about the money. Between you’ve already lost it because your brother is now legally married. Did you not see that marriage certificate? Even uncle validated it and confirmed that it was not fake"
"Shut up. I’m not going to give up easily. We had a bet only over a real marriage", Li Yuhan said as he placed his ear on the small hole. but he couldn’t hear anything.
"Didn’t you say yourself that your brother has found his soulmate?"
"We must not let go of any possibility", Li Yuhan put a device in the hole.
"Your sister-in-law won’t be happy to know that you spied on her on her wedding night"
"You haven’t even met her and you are already taking her side", Li Yuhan said putting a headphone in his ear.
Li Quang sighed as he leaned back.
"Just don’t put all the blame on me once you get caught by your mother"
"Wait. I think I heard something", Li yuhan said putting a hand over his ear.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
What in the hell his brother and sister in law were doing?
"This is weird"
"What?"
"Here listen for yourself"
As Li Quang put on the headphone, his face reddened.
"What the hell Li Yuhan? I’m so done with you!", Li Quang threw away the headphone angrily and walked away.
"But..."
Li Yuhan put on the headphone back and what he heard was.
"Ah... Li Luxian... Faster... Ah... Do it more...Yes...Touch me there..."
He quickly threw away the headphone like some virus.
"Li Quang believe me! It was not what I heard the first time!"
"Keep all the money you want but don’t make me listen to such things!"
"But it was really... wait can I keep the money?"
The door to the room burst open.
"What are you two doing here?", said a grim voice.
