Chapter 1081: Chapter 1124: This is All We Can Do For Now

Li Yifei’s days were bustling and fulfilling, and spending time with the woman he loved in his own home at night was the most relaxing moment of all.

Tonight, Xiao Ling’er and Xu Yingying were with Li Yifei. Li Yifei now had his own independent villa, and whoever’s turn it was would take the initiative to come over in the evening.

As for who would come, Li Yifei never inquired. Someone would naturally show up when the time came, so why should he ask? Besides, everyone tacitly arranged this matter quite well, and he didn’t need to worry about it at all.

"Hubby! I’m here." Xiao Ling’er was the first to arrive, sitting down beside Li Yifei with a smile.

Li Yifei turned his head and kissed Xiao Ling’er. This kind of kiss wasn’t about eroticism or wanting to do anything; it was just a simple peck, but often this simple gesture was the most effective in promoting affection, and Li Yifei never overlooked such details.

Xiao Ling’er scooted over and sat on Li Yifei’s lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Hubby, when are we going out to have fun?"

"Feeling bored, are you?" Li Yifei asked with a chuckle.

"Not bored, just that I see you working too hard. You can’t be working all the time."

"It must really be tough on you. You were such a lively girl before, and now you’re cooped up at home all day since being with me. You must feel terrible."

Xiao Ling’er giggled and replied, "Not really. There are so many people here, I have things to do during the day, and if I’m not with you at night, we all play together. It’s pretty good. I’m actually worried about you because you’re working so hard."

"Indeed, marrying off does change a person. You deserve praise."

After chatting and laughing for a while, Xiao Ling’er looked towards the door. "Why hasn’t Sister Yingying come over yet?"

"Is it Yingying’s turn tonight? She seemed to have nothing on today; why hasn’t she come?"

"I’ll give her a call." Xiao Ling’er picked up her phone and dialed Xu Yingying. It took a while for Xu Yingying to answer.

"Sister Yingying, why haven’t you come over?"

"Oh... I still have some work on my hands. You guys... go to bed first."

Li Yifei could hear what Xu Yingying said but found it a bit strange since her words seemed a bit forced, as if she was avoiding him.

"Hehe, Sister Yingying, don’t overthink, just come over. I don’t feel good hogging all the attention."

"I... Okay, I’ll be right there."

After Xiao Ling’er hung up the phone, Li Yifei immediately asked, "What’s wrong with Yingying?"

With a light laugh, Xiao Ling’er answered, "It’s all because of her psychic connection with Shanshan. She’s feeling awkward about it."

"Ugh... still feeling awkward." Li Yifei was a bit frustrated since Xu Yingying couldn’t just snap out of it easily.

After a while, Xu Yingying arrived, still carrying her laptop.

"Sister Yingying, you’re so busy, still working with the computer at night," Xiao Ling’er teased with a twinkle in her eye.

Xu Yingying looked a bit embarrassed. "There’s naturally a lot to do right now. Alright, alright, you two go rest. I’ll join in a bit."

But Xiao Ling’er grabbed Xu Yingying, grinning. "You’re not planning to work all night, are you? It’s only once a week, do you really want to miss this chance to be with hubby? Come on, you were with hubby before you knew all this, just think it’s the same as before."

Even after being dragged into the bedroom by Xiao Ling’er, Xu Yingying still said with a wry smile, "Hubby, I think I’ll pass. Every time I think about us being like this here, and Shanshan feeling the same over there, I just can’t get over this emotional barrier."

Now Li Yifei understood how big of an impact this was having on Xu Yingying and said with empathy, "I know, I won’t force you. Let’s face this issue gradually."

Xu Yingying gratefully said, "Thank you, hubby, for your understanding."

Xiao Ling’er blinked and cheekily suggested, "Actually, there’s no need for this. Sister Yingying, if you use the back, Shanshan won’t have the connection, right? You would still feel it, wouldn’t that solve the problem?"

"Ahh... right." Xu Yingying’s eyes lit up with a bit of excitement.

Xiao Ling’er proudly exclaimed, "Hehe, there’s always a solution to a problem, no need to keep avoiding it."

Li Yifei couldn’t help but laugh heartily, "Right, right, that’s a good idea."

Using this method, Xu Yingying no longer felt such an emotional burden, and the night turned out to be quite passionate. However, afterward, Xu Yingying said with a tinge of complaint, "It was already tiring for me to get pregnant, and now with this, who knows when I’ll be able to conceive."

Xiao Ling’er said merrily, "That’s easy, just go in for a moment at the very end, then you’ll have a chance of getting pregnant."

This is actually a solution, and it’s only at the very end. Even if Xu Shanshan has a reaction, it won’t be too intense anymore. This allows Xu Yingying to accept it, and it also doesn’t hinder pregnancy. At last, it seems Xu Yingying’s concern is temporarily resolved.

Xu Yingying’s worry may have been settled, but the next day, Xu Shanshan was not having it. She knew that Li Yifei spent the previous night with Xu Yingying. She was all prepared, but in the end, she didn’t feel a thing, which was absolutely frustrating.

"Stupid brother-in-law, what are you up to with my sister?" Xu Shanshan pouted, looking very cross.

Li Yifei knew Xu Shanshan would make a fuss and was prepared. He hugged her shoulders and said, "Your sister was feeling uncomfortable; I couldn’t force her."

"Always knew she was trouble. So petty, treating me like an enemy every day," Xu Shanshan complained, shrugging off his hand.

Li Yifei’s hand jerked. Not only did he get shrugged off, but his body almost staggered to the side. He quickly rotated his True Qi within his body to stabilize himself and exclaimed in surprise, "Shanshan, have you gotten stronger?"

At that, Xu Shanshan also seemed puzzled as she replied, "I don’t know. I haven’t been practicing on purpose since I came back."

"You haven’t practiced since you’ve been back?" Li Yifei widened his eyes at Xu Shanshan.

"Yeah, I feel like I’m already pretty awesome. Plus, with brother-in-law here, why should I bother with the trouble?"

Li Yifei’s face darkened as he said, "Weren’t you always eager to become strong? Why have you lost interest now?"

Xu Shanshan raised an eyebrow and responded, "Am I not strong enough now? Didn’t you say that you’re not even sure you could beat me now? If I get any stronger, and I end up beating you too, that would be so boring. So, I think I’m just fine this way."

Li Yifei offered a bitter smile and said, "What kind of reasoning is that? If Mingrui and others heard about this opportunity, they would train themselves to death. This really is a waste!"

Xu Shanshan nonchalantly said, "As long as I know there aren’t many people who can beat me, getting any stronger is pointless."

"Alright, if you don’t like it, then don’t do it, but still, it feels like such a waste," Li Yifei said shaking his head.

Xu Shanshan snuggled into Li Yifei’s arms, batted her eyelids playfully, and said, "I’m mainly afraid that I might become too strong in... that area, and I’ll wear you out. Then, I won’t know how to explain it to my sister."

"Really?" Li Yifei lifted an eyebrow. As a man, how could he admit defeat in such a matter?

"Hehe, shall we try it out later?"

"Now... let’s forget about it. If your sister finds out, it would only cause trouble."

Xu Shanshan pursed her lips, saying, "Now this won’t do, and she still won’t do it with you—it’s like killing me. I don’t care; you better think of something fast."

"Aren’t you usually the one coming up with ideas?"

"Can’t I run out of ideas? I’ve thought of plenty already; it’s your turn this time."

"Ok, ok, I’ll think of something quickly." Li Yifei had to agree. Xu Shanshan had already done so much for him, and frankly, he hadn’t done much for her.

At that moment, the door unexpectedly swung open. Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan didn’t hear any footsteps and were so startled that they quickly separated, turning to look at the door.

"Giggle... making out in the office in broad daylight, I’m impressed with you two." The one who entered was none other than the Saintess herself.

Xu Shanshan gave the Saintess a blank look and said, "Can’t you at least make a bit of noise when you come?"

The Saintess blinked and said, "I heard the brother-in-law and sister-in-law’s affair from outside, didn’t want to disturb you two."

After surviving the desert tribe together, Xu Shanshan and the Saintess had become quite close, sharing a special bond after their hardships, "What brings you here?"

The Saintess spoke with a tone of reproach, "You guys are so unreasonable. After all the time we’ve spent together, now you don’t even check in on me. I regret not intentionally losing that day, I should have let someone’s wife lose to someone else."

Li Yifei chuckled, "That’s my fault."

"Now there’s a true man, willing to admit his mistakes. I like that." The Saintess complimented, "Yifei, that contract is starting now. I’m curious to see how you’ll handle it."

Li Yifei replied, "Weren’t you trying to compete with me? Why ask me now? You’re acting like corporate espionage."

"I feel like I was on the wrong path before. Even if you beat me outright in business, it wouldn’t help much with my emotional growth. But the little moments I’ve shared with you have contributed significantly, so I’m changing my strategy. I want to spend more time with you, not constantly fight against you."

Xu Shanshan snorted, "I think you just want to be with my brother-in-law and are coming up with all these excuses."

"Alright, you got me," the Saintess confessed. "I’ve realized that even if I perfect my emotional control, breaking free from it has become incredibly difficult, perhaps even impossible."
