“Now that you put it that way… I think I should spend more time with my grandma,” Li Shaobin mumbled.
“Not just your grandma; you need to spend more time with your mom too.” Ruan Yang turned around to walk to the changing room to look for her pajamas. “Time passes by very quickly. After the blink of an eye, it’s already been a year. Your mom is already in her sixties and she’s got so many white hairs on her head already, yet you keep going against her. It’s said that the average lifespan is about the mid-70s and to be able to live to 80 is already considered long-lived. Think about it—how much longer can you keep her company? You might not have a next life and even if you do, she might not be your mom anymore. Actually, your family members really dote on you a lot.”
“Aiya, why are you saying things that make me feel melancholic in the middle of the night?” Li Shaobin felt even worse. He had always been daft when it came to relationships. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have only succeeded in his love life at the age of 30. Besides, he only succeeded because he kept pestering her. He wasn’t like Song Chuyi, who could tame Changqing so easily. “What you said makes some sense. I didn’t think about it in the past. I’ll treat them better next time.”
“There are so many people in your family. Who isn’t nice to their elders? The elderly don’t need people to be nice to them; they need people to accompany them. Youngsters these days aren’t even willing to spend time with the elderly.” Ruan Yang shook her head with melancholy. She turned back to point at the pajamas in the closet and said, “These pajamas are all revealing and thin. Can’t you buy some that are slightly more normal?”
As she said that, she picked up a baby pink silk nightgown. It had a v-neck collar and was still okay in front, but at the back, there was almost no cloth above the waist. That meant it was a bare-back style.
Li Shaobin grinned. “I think it looks good. They’re all quite normal. Aren’t pajamas all like this? It’s more comfortable to sleep with less cloth.”
Ruan Yang didn’t want to start on his lecherous mind, so she pulled out a flannel robe and was about to walk out when he stood in front of her like a wall. She said, “Move away. I’m going to take a shower.”
“Yangyang, let me shower with you. It saves water and electricity. Most importantly, it saves time,” Li Shaobin said panderingly.
“No.” Ruan Yang shook her head as she said, “If you want to have a feast for your eyes, you’ll be the one who ends up suffering.”
Li Shaobin felt gloomy. It was good to at least let his eyes have a feast.
However, she was resolute so he didn’t say anything further.
He pulled his phone out to play games for a while. After around 20 minutes, he heard the door of the bathroom opening. He looked over and felt his chest heat up. Ruan Yang came out with her hair in a bun. She was wearing a v-neck silk nightgown on the inside and a blue and grey robe on the outside, tied at her waist. Half of her chest was revealed and with the slight flush on her face after she came out of the shower, the sight made Li Shaobin’s breath quicken. “Yangyang, you’re seducing me like that. That’s too much.”
“You’re the one who bought such pajamas, yet you’re accusing me of seducing you?” Ruan Yang quickly climbed into bed and covered herself with the blanket after being watched lustfully by him. She said, “I’m done showering; go shower now.”
Li Shaobin had already changed into his pajamas. He lay there lazily under the covers. “The weather’s not hot today and I didn’t sweat. I don’t want to shower.”
“It’s not winter anymore.” Sometimes, Ruan Yang couldn’t understand why men were so lazy. Women would take one shower a day at a minimum even on the coldest winter day, but some men were okay with not showering for a week. Besides, even if she didn’t shower for a day, she would definitely find a way to clean her private area, but men would never do that. That was very unacceptable to her. However, she didn’t have to have sex with him tonight, so she said, “It’s up to you.”
“Then I’m not showering.” Li Shaobin put his phone down gleefully and started nibbling on her lips.
His daily kisses were a must.
Ruan Yang caressed his neck and Li Shaobin felt an immediate reaction in his body. He undid her robe and there was no fabric at the back of the nightgown, so he could enjoy her soft and tender skin without any restrictions.
The air around them became slightly warmer. Ruan Yang’s body was somehow flipped over by him. The kisses on her back made her heart race. They didn’t switch the heater on but she was already starting to feel hot.
Her dark hair was already let down messily, spreading on her back like a gorgeous and expensive oil painting. Li Shaobin was bedazzled. His thick lips landed near her hairline as he mumbled, “Yangyang… Yangyang… I feel terrible.”
Ruan Yang could feel his physical change and didn’t know what to say either. After a while, she said softly, “Settle it yourself.”
Li Shaobin turned her over gloomily and pouted. “Help me…”
Ruan Yang looked up and threw five words at him casually: “A man must be self-sufficient.”
“I have a wife already. Sometimes, I can also depend on my wife, right?” Li Shaobin kissed her face panderingly.
Ruan Yang frowned. “Then take a shower first.”
Li Shaobin was gloomy. “I’m not in the mood to shower right now.”
Ruan Yang said ambiguously, “Then forget it.”
Li Shaobin felt hurt. He clambered up and zipped into the bathroom.
Men showered very quickly. Within five minutes, he came back out with water droplets hanging on his body. Ruan Yang was dumbfounded. “That’s fast.”
“In any case, I’m clean. Do you want to have a smell?” Li Shaobin said with a grin.
“Smell your foot.” Ruan Yang blushed. She put her robe on and sat up.
Li Shaobin reached out and pulled her into his embrace as he said panderingly, “Yangyang, I like you a lot…”
Ruan Yang’s face got even redder and she felt even more embarrassed. She really wanted to stuff a tissue in his mouth.
After around four to five minutes, Li Shaobin held her face in his hands and kissed her passionately. “Yangyang, I’ve decided that from today onwards, I will take a shower every night. I guarantee that I will wash myself cleanly.”
Ruan Yang scoffed. “I think you’d better not shower.”
“That won’t do.” Li Shaobin blinked. “I want to be a clean man.”
The corners of Ruan Yang’s lips rose. She didn’t believe that his reason for wanting to be clean was pure. “Stop disturbing me. Let me watch a drama for a while.”
She switched the tablet on and started looking for the drama she watched tonight with Grandma Li. Li Shaobin glanced at her and said in shock, “You’re really going to watch it?”
“Why not? I have nothing to do anyway. I don’t want to sleep so early.” Ruan Yang started watching seriously.
Li Shaobin watched with her for a while and started to do some online shopping on his phone.
He had never gone online shopping before. This was the first time he registered for an account for online shopping, so he kept disturbing Ruan Yang. “… What do you think I should put as my account name?… Do you have an email? I don’t remember mine… Yangyang, I’ve set up my account.”
Ruan Yang tried hard to block his voice out. He was just as noisy as an old granny.
Not long after, he moved over and said in shock, “Yangyang, look—there are so many different types. There are ropes, masks, handcuffs… Wow, it looks interesting.”
Ruan Yang glanced over and rubbed her glabella. She had already forgotten the reason he was so excited about online shopping.
One look brought chills down her spine.
“Should we get all of them to try?” Li Shaobin looked at her with interest.
“If you want to try them, get someone else to try.” Ruan Yang turned away and ignored him.
“How could I get someone else to try?” Li Shaobin ended up picking a whip obediently. However, when he was about to provide payment, he didn’t know how to pay with his card. “Yangyang, how do I do the card thing?”
“Are you from outer space?” Ruan Yang really didn’t want to say that he was ignorant. “You don’t even know how to do basic online shopping.”
“I don’t usually buy things online and no woman uses my money to shop online. I usually just get Hu Zhi to help me get the things I want.” Li Shaobin was confused. He could fight, earn money, and game, but dealing with technology hurt his head too much. “I don’t even know if my card can make payments online. Why don’t I just use your card?”
Ruan Yang said with a snort, “Isn’t it usually the woman who uses the man’s card for online shopping? You’re a man yet you’re using my card.”
“Then I’ll just let you handle all my money. Won’t that do?” Li Shaobin snorted. Wasn’t he just asking for a whip that cost around 50 dollars?
Ruan Yang told him her card number in the end. Li Shaobin fiddled around for another 20 minutes before he finally bought the whip.
The next day, Ruan Yang woke up at 7 am. Because it was her first time sleeping over at the Li household, she didn’t dare to sleep in too late. She was afraid his family would say that she liked to sleep in.
Li Shaobin flipped over and pulled her into his embrace. “Yangyang, sleep a little while more.”
“I’m not sleeping anymore. I’m hungry. I’ll go have breakfast. You should get up too.” Ruan Yang pulled him up.
“Mm… I don’t want to get up. I want to sleep in.” Li Shaobin hated it when someone roused him from his slumber. He sat up frustratedly and Ruan Yang looked at him. “Are you going to throw your temper at me?”
“…” Li Shaobin shook his head. “No.”
“Good boy. Get up quickly. I’m going to wash up.” Ruan Yang cupped his face in her hands and gave him a peck on his lips before she got up.
Li Shaobin watched her bare back the way a dog looked at meat. He wanted to eat but couldn’t.
Ruan Yang headed out of the room first.
She happened to see Li Xiaoxia coming out of the study with his bag. She greeted him with a smile. “Xiaoxia, are you off to school?”
