Warm medicine emits fragrance

Fan Liuer's worries didn't last half a day. When she learned from Li Chenbi that she would have to go with him to the old lady's courtyard for New Year's Eve dinner, she was replaced by even greater worries.

"Me too? That's not appropriate. It's your family celebrating the New Year, it's not proper for me to go."

Even if she were just a wet nurse, or even if she were a concubine, she wouldn't be allowed to sit at the table and eat with their whole family.

Besides, she didn't want to attend such occasions at all. Before, she hadn't done anything, yet people were already trying to mess with her.

If she really attended in such a high-profile manner, wouldn't she attract even more hatred?

Li Chenbi noticed her worry and put his arm around her. "What are you afraid of? With me here, who would dare to do anything to you?"

Fan Liuer pouted; someone had tried to harm her last time.

Li Chenbi clearly remembered what happened last time, and his face darkened. "I was careless that time. Don't worry, this will be the last time. Now that you're with me, I will protect you."

Li Chenbi's words did not reassure Fan Liuer. In the stories, which unfaithful man didn't say the same thing to a woman at first? But in the end, the man who said these words hurt the most.

A man's words are never to be trusted.

"Can I not go?" She nestled in Li Chenbi's arms, speaking pitifully, trying to play the victim and dissuade Li Chenbi from going.

Li Chenbi looked at her. "What, you don't trust me?"

of course!

But Fan Liuer dared not say these words.

"Of course not, I'm just a little afraid that my presence will upset everyone."

Li Chenbi scoffed, "What right do they have to be unhappy? You should remember who made you unhappy, and I'll stand up for you."

As he spoke, he pinched Fan Liuer's chin with his fingertips, making her lift her face to look at him. "Fan Liuer."

"You'll get used to it; you'll face similar situations much more often in the future."

Li Chenbi's attitude was so firm that Fan Liuer dared not refuse again, lest she displease him.

"Then..." she looked at Li Chenbi and tentatively asked, "At the banquet, can I do whatever I want?"

Li Chenbi forced her to go, and she didn't want to be humiliated; she needed to get a clear answer first.

These words made Li Chenbi smile. He stroked her chin a few times with his hand, then leaned down and kissed her on the lips.

"Do whatever you want. Even if you turn this Li mansion upside down, I'll cover for you."

Since he had said that, Fan Liuer was ready to go all out.

Since she's destined to be hated no matter what, she might as well be more high-profile and make her life more comfortable.

Anyway...

She's also going to run away.

It's unclear what Fan Liuer did to seduce Li Chenbi, but after Fan Liuer agreed to the matter, Li Chenbi suddenly became interested and carried Fan Liuer to the bed.

"Second Master, this...this is still daytime."

"Haven't we done enough during the day?"

Fan Liuer couldn't refute this, "But...but I haven't..."

Li Chenbi cut her off, saying, "You're all better now. The doctor said you can have sex appropriately."

Fan Liuer felt that the "appropriate" in Li Chenbi's words was somewhat different from the "appropriate" in the doctor's words.

The day before New Year's Eve, Fan Liuer was barely able to get out of bed.

No, she got down; Li Chenbi carried her down.

This man had probably been holding back for too long, and he just wanted to satisfy himself. The bed was no longer enough for him, so he carried Fan Liuer around on the couch, the table, and in front of the dressing table.

Fan Liuer was so tired that she didn't eat dinner and slept until late at night.

I was woken up by hunger.

Li Chenbi knew she would wake up hungry because she hadn't eaten dinner, so he had already had food prepared and kept warm, just waiting for her to wake up.

When Fan Liuer opened her eyes, Li Chenbi was sitting on the headboard, flipping through an account book in his hand, while she was hugging Li Chenbi's waist, her face pressed against his abdomen, and her whole body half-pressed on her.

No wonder she dreamed that she was hugging a heater.

Fan Liuer is afraid of the cold, so the heater in her room is on all twelve hours a day, but such a temperature is still a bit uncomfortable for Li Chenbi.

Therefore, whenever he returned, some of the heaters would be removed, and he would take over the job of heating Fan Liuer.

Fan Liuer had no objection to this; being held in Li Chenbi's arms was more effective than lighting any number of heaters.

Moreover, after being with Li Chenbi for so long, her health has improved a lot, and she is no longer as afraid of the cold as before.

At this moment, Li Chenbi was shirtless, and Fan Liuer couldn't help but reach out from under the covers and touch his exposed waist and abdomen.

The moment his hand touched hers, it was grabbed. Li Chenbi looked down at her.

"Want more?"

Fan Liuer blushed. "I'm just curious, you're not afraid of the cold at all in winter."

She can't afford it anymore; if she takes any more, it will kill her.

Li Chenbi held her hand in his palm. "Isn't this better?"

Fan Liuer didn't understand, her eyes filled with confusion.

Okay? Isn't he most afraid of the heat?

Li Chenbi smiled slightly. "You like it, don't you?"

Fan Liuer really couldn't refute that; she genuinely liked it.

Even envy.

Suddenly, Li Chenbi thought of something, stared at Fan Liuer, and asked, "Do you like me? Do you like me as a person, or do you like my body?"

This question stumped Fan Liuer.

Can she say she doesn't like either of them?

Although Li Chenbi's physique made her feel comfortable holding him, his stamina was too vigorous and he was also very exhausting.

If she had to choose between two things she wasn't entirely satisfied with, she would find it difficult to decide for a while.

Her hesitation caught Li Chenbi's eye, causing him to narrow his eyes and his tone to become slightly more serious.

"They can't even choose one?"

"Hehe... Fan Liuer, you really surprised me."

Her hand was squeezed painfully, and Fan Liuer's sense of crisis instantly kicked in. She blurted out, "I like them both!"

"I'm just thinking about which one I like better."

"But upon closer reflection, I realized I like them all and can't choose one."

Li Chenbi remained calm, staring at her without saying a word.

Fan Liuer regretted it. She regretted thinking about his question so seriously. Why was she so serious at a time like this? She should have just flattered him!

Now, I have to rack my brains to coax her again.

After thinking for a moment, she lowered her face and kissed Li Chenbi on the stomach.

"Really, I like them all."

"I have never met anyone who treats me so well. They gave me so many beautiful clothes, expensive jewelry, and so much delicious food. They are also so comfortable to hold."

"Besides you, where else in this world can I find someone who treats me so well?"

She would kiss him after every sentence she spoke, and with each kiss, Li Chenbi's body would tense up.

Finally, Li Chenbi couldn't take it anymore and dug her head out of her abdomen.

"Fan Liuer, you're just trying to coax me."

Fan Liuer looked up at him and said softly, "I wasn't trying to comfort you."

"Aren't we destined to be a couple because of our physical constitutions?"
