Chapter 405: Chapter 413 Xu Shanshan saw it again

Li Yifei had no confidence when this matter was brought up, and said, "Yunzhu, I didn’t mean it that way."

Ye Yunzhu glared and said, "Then what do you mean? I’m already having your child, and you won’t marry me but marry her instead?"

"Don’t get angry, don’t get angry, watch your pregnancy," Li Yifei said, panicked, as he rubbed her back and patted his chest.

This cautious manner of Li Yifei soothed Ye Yunzhu’s mood, and she said, "Alright, don’t act like a eunuch, I’m not Empress Dowager Cixi."

"If I were a eunuch, how could the Empress Dowager be pregnant?"

"Hmph, you’re not one now, but if I ever get really mad, I’ll make you a real eunuch," Ye Yunzhu said, reaching out to grab Li Yifei’s crotch.

"No, no, my dear, please let me go, it hurts."

"Hmph!" Ye Yunzhu shot a look at Li Yifei, her hand not releasing but changing her grip to a gentle squeeze.

"Yunzhu... you..." Li Yifei immediately reacted to Ye Yunzhu’s actions, his breath becoming a bit unruly.

"I want you," Ye Yunzhu said, her eyes filled with allure, gazing at Li Yifei.

"This is the office... Isn’t this inappropriate?"

Ye Yunzhu gestured to her wristwatch and said, "Haven’t you noticed it’s already past office hours?"

Only then did Li Yifei notice it was already past five, and the entire Village Government building was indeed very quiet.

With a move, he wrapped Ye Yunzhu in his arms and kissed her lips, to which Ye Yunzhu responded passionately.

In this intense round of kissing, Li Yifei was deeply involved. Knowing Ye Yunzhu was carrying his child filled him with joy and guilt, so he compensated Ye Yunzhu with such devotion.

Only close to seven did Li Yifei return home. Once inside, he saw Xu Shanshan sitting in the living room. Changing his shoes, he said, "Where’s your sister?"

"My sister found out you’re sneaking around, and you made her leave in anger," Xu Shanshan said, puffing her cheeks and glaring at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei immediately sat beside Xu Shanshan, grinning, and said, "Shanshan, why are you so angry?"

"Hmph, you have such a wonderful wife like my sister yet always sneak around outside. How can I not be angry? If you want to sneak around, you can sneak with me."

"Ah-ah," Li Yifei coughed repeatedly, nearly choking on his words. Despite past temptations, the peril of indulging in such proximity with his sister-in-law held him back.

"What’s wrong? Am I less than those random women outside?" Xu Shanshan glared at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei gave an awkward smile and said, "Shanshan, you’re so adorable, how could you be less than other women outside? I went to see Ye Yunzhu today; it’s because your sister asked me to, so no more overthinking."

"My sister asked you to? She must be crazy, knowing you two had a fling before, yet still asking you to meet — isn’t that just rekindling your old romance?"

"Well... my wedding with your sister was certainly hasty. I need some time to settle my own affairs; your sister agreed. Don’t be upset; I’ll cook for you." Then he hurriedly went to the kitchen.

Xu Shanshan followed him in, standing behind Li Yifei, and said, "Brother-in-law, I’m not throwing a tantrum; I just want to ask you one question."

"Go ahead." Li Yifei keenly chopped the vegetables.

"Have you really never thought about sneaking with me?"

"Thump!" Li Yifei’s knife sloped off, nearly cutting his hand.

"No lying, now! Liars get eaten by wolves," Xu Shanshan asked with a giggle.

"No, absolutely not. You’re my sister-in-law, and I see you as my own sister. How could I sneak with you?"

"You’re lying; men always like sneaking with their sisters-in-law. Some just lack the courage."

Li Yifei coughed dryly again, finding it impossible to continue such a conversation.

"If you don’t want to sneak around, then why do you look so blissful every time you touch my feet? Hmph."

At this, Li Yifei felt utterly embarrassed. Typically their tacit games with Xu Shanshan felt enjoyable, but now that she openly stated it, he desperately wished he could vanish into thin air.

Xu Shanshan chuckled and said, "Brother-in-law, there’s no need to feel awkward. I’m not blaming you; I actually enjoy how you treat me. If you suddenly stop, I’d be quite frustrated. If you ever act up again, not only would I not help you, I’d sabotage your plans. Even if you’re pretty clever, I’d ensure you don’t get any more sneaky chances. Forget about Su Yiyi or Ye Yunzhu."

"Um... Shanshan..."

"Hehe, my naughty brother-in-law, harboring desires, but lacking the temerity."

"Ahem."

"Haha, I’m just teasing you. My sister’s out bathing; she should be back soon."

"Why out? Why not at home?"

"She said she wants a good soak outside, maybe a milk or rose bath, to make herself smell wonderful for the evening with you; this way, she can win your heart and keep you from sneaking out."

Li Yifei knocked Xu Shanshan gently on the head and said, "You’re speaking nonsense again."

"Regardless, my sister is so good to you, so you should stay home more often."

A knock on the door interrupted, and Xu Shanshan quickly went to open it, revealing Xu Yingying walking in.

"Sis, brother-in-law is back; I’ve already interrogated him, and he didn’t do anything bad," Xu Shanshan said as she took the bath basket from Xu Yingying, smiling brightly.

Xu Yingying looked towards the kitchen, smiling at Li Yifei, then asked Xu Shanshan, "How did you check?"

"I smelled whether he had any woman’s scent on him. You know my nose is quite sharp. Though he has a woman’s scent, it’s not the kind of scent after wrongdoing; ergo, no wrongdoing."

Xu Yingying looked suspiciously at her sister and said, "How come I never knew you could tell such scents apart?"

"I didn’t know either, but when it comes to you two, I discovered it. Whenever you and brother-in-law are up to no good, I can smell it."

Xu Yingying flushed red immediately, feeling her personal affairs were entirely bare to Xu Shanshan, making her incredulously embarrassed.

But after the embarrassment, Xu Yingying grew somewhat annoyed and grabbed Xu Shanshan’s arm, shouting, "Stop sniffing me and your brother-in-law."

Xu Shanshan giggled and said, "I don’t have to try; I can tell when you walk by."

"You... then you move out, and no more staying here."

"Haha... big sis, I was joking. I don’t actually have that ability."

"You..." Xu Yingying was left speechless with anger at her sister.

Li Yifei stepped to the kitchen door, saying, "Honey, are you really mad at Shanshan? She just loves joking around."

"This crazy girl, making jokes like that — does she still act like a proper lady?"

That evening, since Li Yifei came home late, neither Su Mengxin nor Meng Xiaofei came over. It wasn’t like before; back when Li Yifei was single, they would drop by Li Yifei’s house without a second thought. But now, this was Li Yifei and Xu Yingying’s home; it’s not that casual anymore.

In the evening, Li Yifei dutifully massaged Xu Shanshan’s feet and legs, but still couldn’t help recalling her words, "If you want to sneak around, you can sneak with me."

This sister-in-law was truly alluring. To say he had no such thoughts would have been rubbish; seeing such a gorgeous girl near him daily, dressing casually, letting him handle her small feet and caress her fine legs — it was all too tempting.

Fortunately, that evening, Xu Shanshan got absorbed in a TV show, behaving more composed than usual. Li Yifei ended his tantalizing, yet tormenting, task early.

Finally retreating to the bedroom, Li Yifei found himself perplexed; Ye Yunzhu was indeed expecting his child, and it couldn’t be terminated, which meant he had to be a father. Knowing Ye Yunzhu well, he was sure she wasn’t lying; even if she was desperate, she wouldn’t fabricate such a reason.

Yet he was married to Xu Yingying. Could he abandon her to marry Ye Yunzhu? It seemed an impossible thing to say.

"Is Yunzhu doing okay?" Xu Yingying asked as she sat on the bed and waited for Li Yifei to lie down.

Li Yifei nodded, lay beside Xu Yingying, and said, "She’s fine."

Xu Yingying also lay down, casually switching off the bedside lamp, nestling into Li Yifei’s arms, and said, "Don’t be sad. Even though you can’t give her a marriage now, allowing her to have her own life might not be a bad thing."

Li Yifei sighed. If things were as Xu Yingying said, even if he felt uneasy for a moment, he would eventually accept it. But it wasn’t like that; it made things difficult for him.

"Honey, I took a bath today," Xu Yingying said, gently nudging Li Yifei.

"Oh, I know," Li Yifei replied casually.

"You... you’re annoying; I said I took a bath today."

Li Yifei paused, then suddenly understood what Xu Yingying meant, instantly becoming excited.
