My enemies became my companions

Chapter 155 Try to Like You
"Yin Tingxue, what do you mean?"

When the girl saw this, Chen Yi's eyes became gloomy. She suppressed her weakness in her legs, took one or two steps forward, and leaned into his arms.

Yin Tingxue fell into his arms and was caressed casually by him. She took two careful breaths and said nothing.

"What do you mean, huh? You can dislike me? Not forever?"

Chen Yi looked at the girl in his arms and asked solemnly:
"You want to stall for time, right?"

"It's not like this…"

Yin Tingxue shook her head in his arms, her legs felt weak and stiff, and she was too panicked to say the words she had been planning for a long time.

"Then what do you mean?"

Chen Yi's voice was not gentle and his fingertips were wandering.

Looking at him, a deep fear arose in Yin Tingxue's heart.

Yin Tingxue trembled slightly and was held in Chen Yi's arms. She did not struggle, nor did she dare to struggle. Instead, she stretched out her hands and gently hugged him.

The little hands went around his waist and she hugged him tightly.

Chen Yi narrowed his eyes, only to see her looking up and asking in a low voice:
"Are you happy?"

"What do you mean?" Chen Yi asked.

"You said that if I hold you like this... you will be happy."

Yin Tingxue couldn't stop shaking, her heart was pounding, as if she was determined to make it a success or failure.

She softened her voice and said with a trembling voice:
"Husband...I am your concubine, and I can never leave you."

Chen Yi picked up the ends of her hair, which was jet black and very tender, and said sarcastically:
"Of course you can't leave me."

This sentence seemed to be the final conclusion. Whether Yin Tingxue was willing or not, she was thrown into the invisible prison.

"I know…"

She murmured these words, lost her mind for a moment, turned around, and heard Chen Yi speaking.

"If you want to go back to Yintai Temple, I will take you back as agreed, but we only agreed to do it three times."

Chen Yi paused, met her uneasy gaze, and said with a half-smile:
"After three times, I will never take you there again."

Yin Tingxue suddenly froze, her hands and feet felt cold, her eyes widened and tears welled up in her eyes, and she suddenly felt suffocated.

Now everything she has is controlled by that person. She has always known this truth, but when she really faces it, she still can't stop panicking.

Chen Yi smiled and said cruelly and sinisterly:

"Moreover, we may even take you to see Yintai Temple from a distance, but no matter how much you beg, we won't let you go in. If you are satisfied with just looking at it, we won't even let you see it, and we may even set it on fire..."

He felt the girl in his arms trembling, but she did not retreat. Instead, she whispered silently and hugged him tighter.

She seemed to want him to be happier, softer, and not do this to her.

Chen Yi lowered his voice and said:
"Let's not talk about this. I believe there is no need for us to go to this extent. As long as you like me... I will take you there every year."

Yin Tingxue couldn't help but clench the corner of his clothes into a ball. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she finally uttered an imperceptible sound:
"Do you want... my heart?"

"if not?"

As she finished speaking, her hands began to tremble and she pressed her face closer to the man's, looking exceptionally pale.

How come this person, who is the most feared person in my life, wants everything?

"You are all mine now, do you still have a choice?"

Chen Yi asked calmly.

Bitterness filled her lips, she trembled slightly, not looking at him at all, with a sad face, she said:

"No, I won't give it to you."

The atmosphere suddenly became dark, and in the shadows, Chen Yi looked straight at her.

"If you don't give me your heart, who do you want to give it to?"

His voice was eerily calm.

"No one...but my heart is my own..."

Yin Tingxue was trembling, her face was pale with fear.
"I have given you my body, I have always listened to you, and tried my best to please you, can you... not want my heart?"

Then, she noticed that Chen Yi's eyes had become completely gloomy, and she anxiously avoided his gaze.

And Chen Yi had already picked her up with force.

Her feet left the ground and Yin Tingxue screamed in panic. Then she was taken to the bedroom and pressed onto the bed. She suddenly felt something go wrong.

"Wait, wait, husband...husband!"

She started to cry and pushed Chen Yi. She hadn't struggled like this for a long time. Chen Yi slowed down his movements and said:

"If you have something to say, just say it. You can't hide today anyway."

"No, no, I, I..."

She gasped for a long time. Chen Yi realized that she wanted to say something but didn't dare to, so he slowed down his hand movements.

After a while, Yin Tingxue reached out and gently lifted Chen Yi's neck, asking him to lie on the bed.

She seemed to vaguely feel that he would be much more talkative when he was sleeping on the bed with his arms around her.

She was so docile that Chen Yi did not refuse. He lay on the bed and looked at her.

"What do you want to say?"

Yin Tingxue took a deep breath and said in a soft voice:
"First, if someone likes another person, wouldn't they... try to please that person?"

"so?"

"On the other hand, if you want another person to like you, isn't it just to make that person happy?"

Yin Tingxue spoke quickly and was worried that Chen Yi couldn't hear clearly, so she said it again.

"That's interesting. What do you want to say?"

Chen Yi raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.

Yin Tingxue clenched her hands, curled up against his chest, not daring to look at him, and uttered the words she had hesitated for a long time:

"Husband... From now on, I will try to please you as if I love you...

Just...don't force me to have a baby."

She looked as if she had made a huge suggestion, and her eyes moved nervously.

Chen Yi was surprised by this somewhat unconventional proposal and asked with a smile:

"So... you don't like me, but you will try to please me as if you like me?"

"Well...I will think of you, remember your kindness, and kiss you..."

"that's it?"

"I still can... act like a spoiled child."

Her little face turned red and she tiptoed into his arms.

Chen Yixu closed his eyes and pondered.

Fearing that he would be dissatisfied, she added in a low voice:

"I'll give it a try while we're at it, okay?"

"Try what?"

“Try it…”

She hesitated, but finally said it out.

"Try to like you..."

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, his heart was slightly moved, this sentence seemed to touch his heart.

Yin Tingxue was afraid that he would not agree, so she raised her eyes and looked:
"Is this... okay? You said you could give me some time..."

Although he knew that this was probably a delaying tactic of hers, Chen Yi was still touched.

He laughed and kissed her on the cheek:

"Since I said so, then it is so."

Yin Tingxue, with tears in her eyes, raised her lips a little. She wiped her tears and said shamefully:

"Well, then... come on."

"Hmm? You've tasted the sweetness and are you still unsatisfied?" Chen Yi's hands began to wander restlessly.

Hearing his teasing words, Yin Tingxue was afraid that he would go back on his word, so she bit her lip and said with a sense of grievance:
"Yeah, I want it..."

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Chen Yi felt anxious for no reason.

She lost her mother, her house was ransacked, and in the end, she was left alone with only herself, the man who took her as a concubine, her enemy.

He hugged her gently, feeling the girl's fragility, and said softly:

"You are so timid and pitiful, little fox."
