Chapter 757: You’re Too Heavy

When Jian Yiling saw Zhai Yunsheng smiling, her heart felt more stuffy.

And thus, she glared at Zhai Yunsheng. It was obvious that she was quite upset.

However, instead of explaining, Zhai Yunsheng turned around to hug Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling did not want to hug him today. Therefore, she attempted to push him away.

However, Zhai Yunsheng was unwilling to let her go.

And thus, the two of them fell onto the sofa.

Zhai Yunsheng’s body was pressed against Jian Yiling’s body.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere changed.

Zhai Yunsheng whispered into Jian Yiling’s ear: “I’m happy that you’re jealous. However, you shouldn’t wrongly accuse me. Those photos were taken from a particular angle. Therefore, they’re quite misleading. In reality, I was quite far away from her.”

As Zhai Yunsheng spoke, his hot breath was exhaled near Jian Yiling’s ear. This was hot and ticklish.

Jian Yiling attempted to curl up into a ball. She didn’t move at all.

Even if she wanted to move, she couldn’t move. He was way too heavy.

“Hm?” Zhai Yunsheng questioned as he lowered his head to look at Jian Yiling’s face.

At that moment, he realized that Jian Yiling’s face was as red as a ripe apple.

“You…”

Usually, Jian Yiling was able to say the words “reproduce offspring” without batting her eyes.

In addition, she told him that she was “not afraid of pain.”

However, when it was time to put those words into action, merely hugging her made her face incredibly flushed.

Zhai Yunsheng buried his head into Jian Yiling’s neck. Then, he said in a deep voice: “Say that you’re no longer upset.”

“I’m… I’m no longer… Upset.”

Her soft voice was right next to Zhai Yunsheng’s ears.

Upon hearing this, Zhai Yunsheng’s body became heavier.

“Then… Then, can you get up now?” Jian Yiling asked. Her voice was quiet and soft.

“Let me hug you for a bit longer. Just a bit longer,” Zhai Yunsheng replied.

Jian Yiling felt that Zhai Yunsheng’s body was very hot. Her own body was also becoming hot.

This feeling was very strange and throbbing.

After a while, Zhai Yunsheng finally let go of Jian Yiling.

Both of their faces were flushed with red.

“You’re very heavy,” Jian Yiling muttered quietly.

“Next time, I’ll let you lie on top of me. Will that be better?” Zhai Yunsheng asked with a devilish smile on his face.

“No… No…”

Jian Yiling’s mind unconsciously imagined the image that Zhai Yunsheng described. And thus, her face became even redder.

When Zhai Yunsheng saw Jian Yiling’s shy expression, he didn’t know whether he was teasing her or torturing himself.

“I’m going to go take a shower,” Zhai Yunsheng said as he got up.

“You took a shower already,” Jian Yiling reminded.

“It’s too hot.”

Zhai Yunsheng used this reason to quickly go back to his room.

However, it was about to become winter…

“Mr. Feng, I hope you can carefully consider my proposal,” Wei Qirui said with a polite and respectful attitude.

Feng Wei gently smiled at Wei Qirui. However, it was as though Wei Qirui’s intentions could not escape his eyes.

“Qirui, I’m basically considered as an elder in the Loyalty Alliance right?”

“Yes, yes.”

“Hmm, then please listen to these words of mine. The Loyalty Alliance has been loyal to the Zhai family ever since ancient times. It’s unfilial and inappropriate for you to try and take the Zhai family’s place.”

“Just because the Zhai family led the Loyalty Alliance in the past, it doesn’t mean that they will have to in the future. Are powerful people born with their standing in society?[1] Mr. Feng, the Zhai family’s power is dissipating as the years go on. Furthermore, the heir of the Zhai family is terminally ill. It’s hard to even say how long he will live for.”

“Even if Zhai Yunsheng dies, the future matriarch of the Zhai family still exists. Furthermore, even if he dies, if Miss Yiling gives birth to a son or daughter, the Zhai family’s lineage will still go on.”

“Mr. Feng, do you really think that Miss Yiling can support the Zhai family?”

“Oh? Do you think that it’s easy to bully Miss Yiling?” Mr. Feng asked with a smile on his face. He was rather amused by Wei Qirui’s words.

[1] Translator Note: This is a saying in Chinese. Wei Qirui is basically stating that everyone has the opportunity to become a powerful person. No one is really “born” into power.
