Chapter 461 - Surprise : One Month Anniversary 3
Li Jing blinked for some time, still trying to process in her mind what was going on but that wasn\'t necessary as what she saw made it utterly clear.
"OH MY GOD!"
With smiles all over his face, Ye Cheng pried his lips open and said, "Happy anniversary, love."
"Ye Cheng! God!"
Running forward and closing the gap between them, Li Jing lifted her hands and rushed into his warm embrace, enveloping him with her love.
As expected, Ye Cheng welcomed her with open arms, hugging her too and twirling her around. After a few turns, he gently placed her down before looking at her deep in the eyes and uttering his sweet words of love to her.
"Happy anniversary, my love. Thanks for coming into my life. Thanks for being the sweetness I dare wish for. Thanks, my love for accepting me and all of my excesses. Thank you for counting me worthy to give and share your love with. I count myself the luckiest man on earth to have such a lovely, intelligent, beautiful, sweetly endowed, gracious wife. Thanks for being the love of my life, my queen."
Li Jing did not say anything. Rather she smiled so sheepishly at her husband as she admired every dashing features of his face and eyes.
"Baby, thanks for taking this journey of living your life with me."
"Honey, you own my heart. You are the Lord of my life and the reason I keep smiling each day. Thank you so much for keeping up with my own excesses. I know I am not the best but you love me unconditionally. Happy anniversary baby and I pray that you and I have many more celebrations to come and we never separate."
"Never separate. You are mine, my love."
"As are you, honey."
The more they stared at each other, the more they could barely contain this joy. Finally, as though their hearts were in sync, Li Jing moved her head closer and planted a kiss on his lips.
Being the loving husband that he was, he did not allow her to just go with that kiss and replied it.
They stood there, basking in each other\'s love and the warmth of their mouths for a long time before pulling away to stare into each other\'s eyes.
"I love you so much, babe."
"I love you more, honey."
\'And I love my baby love the most."
"I love you through the alphabets." Li Jing smiled tactfully because she won.
Normally when they said that, even if she said I love you to the moon and back, to infinity and beyond, he would say, I love you through the alphabets and that to infinity, to eternity and the likes were all contained in the alphabets.
So he usually won but today, she was wise enough to say it before he did.
"Look at you, grinning from ear to ear as though you won a trophy," Ye Cheng teased but that did not stop his little miss from still smiling brightly at him.
"I love that smile, baby girl. And I wish above all things that it would never go down." He brought his face closer again and kissed her fully on the lips before pulling back again when they heard the resounding round of applause that followed.
Apparently, the couples weren\'t alone it would seem. Both Li Jing and Ye Cheng looked in the direction of the door and saw several heads popping out from the doorway, trying to have a view of what was going on inside.
The second Li Jing laid eyes on them, she turned red instantly. Her cheeks heated up at the thought of her romantic moment being watched by everyone, both friends and family.
"Hey, give my darling wife and me some privacy if you do not mind. Do not make her feel shy and ruin our moment."
"It was Yin Lifen who spoke first. "Hehehe, sorry about that. We were just curious."
"And we let our inquisitiveness get the best of us," Rong added.
Ye Cheng sighed, shaking his head at them before pulling Li Jing closer to his chest and shielding her from the naughty friends of theirs.
"I know you should have your moment and all, but I would appreciate it if you guys, you know, come outside and let us celebrate. You have the whole night to yourself, remember?" Yi Wang Lei said, stepping into the room and chancing everyone else.
Even though, he said that the smirk on his face told a different story. Besides, he was admonishing them to pause their romance and come to have the celebration but he was inside the room and also hoping to watch more.
He knew given them the chance, the two love birds would not leave themselves alone as they seemed overly attached but here he was wanting to get the first chance to have a look.
"Ahem!" Ye Cheng cleared his throat while giving him the don\'t you dare look but Yi Wang Lei feigned ignorance. "Wang Lei, do not give me that and excuse us, all of you."
He wasn\'t joking this time around and they knew it. They did not need someone to advise them further and everyone ran away before Ye Cheng issued them a threat."
By the time he was sure they had completely gone, he looked down at his wife, only to find her still grinning from ear to ear. "Omo… Look at who I was defending. Where did all your blush go to just now?"
"See." She pointed at her cheek but her smile remained. "It is still very much there."
"Then why the grin, wifey?"
\'Because, I am proud having such a caring, dashing, mighty and feared, duly respected husband such as yourself. They all scurried away just now."
"Not all, though."
"What?" Li Jing looked at him with confusing eyes. She did not understand. She was sure everyone had gone, right?
"Wait," he whispered at her and went towards the door. Fortunately for them or unfortunately, as the case may be, those naughty friends of theirs closed the door on their way out but to their dismay…
Ye Cheng held the doorknob and pulled on it downwards, pulling it towards himself and stunning the people behind the door.
Instantly, the door opened and the two unprepared culprits fell forward and atop the other.
"Oouchh!"
"Give me two reasons why I should not accord you two special punishments right now," Ye Cheng said in a threatening manner.
Both of the, smiled sheepishly before scrambling unto their feet and blushing from embarrassment.
"I gave a clear and direct instruction. Leave me and my wifey alone for a brief moment, yet you two," he pointed at Yin Lifen and ahi Wang Lei, "You naughty pair... I... urgh, I don\'t even know what to say to you two"
Seeing the situation as well as the pleading face of Yin Lifen, Li Jing walked over to meet Ye Cheng, placing a hand on his shoulder and getting his full attention.
"Yes, love?" He said turning his gaze to her.
Li Jing smiled and looked at him charmingly. "Ignore them, please honey. I believe they have already learnt their lesson," Li Jing pleaded.
"But these two need to learn the difference between normal space and..."
"Just let it slide, honey. Besides, everyone is waiting for us for the party to continue. They were just being unnecessarily inquisitive."
"Fine. Anything for my love. You are what matters to me most. If you say Sao, no worries. You two," he cast a stern glance their way, freezing them on the spot with the coldness his eyes bore as though he could see deep into their soul.
"Sir!"
"Behave." He turned to Li Jing and smiled at her. As far as he was concerned, he had no business with those noisy bunch. All that mattered was Li Jing and her happiness.
On the other hand, it shocked Yin Lifen who just saw a bit of Ye Cheng. She knew he was cold at times but never had she really experience before.
Whist a stare from himhad made her shiver so much that she thought he was one handsome villian.
Ignoring both of them, Ye Cheng snaked a hand around Li Jing\'s waist and pulled her body closer to his, taking her breath away. before Li Jing could protest, Ye Cheng brought his head closer to hers, not giving her any time for her brain to register what was going on.
\'If only you know how tantalizingly beautiful and alluring you are, you would try to run from me. You make it hard to not want you, love. Even now, as you stare innocently at me, all I can think of is your lips and kiss...\'
As soon as that thought crossed his mind, he threw caution to the wind and his coldness dissipated quickly as he pressed his lips on hers, sealing them in a breatheless kiss.
"Omo!"
