Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed

Chapter 694: Chapter 241: The Offensive and Defensive Alliance Between Bai Weixi and Zhong Tingyue_2

Listening to Li Yuan’s shameless response, Bai Weixi and Zhong Tingyue couldn’t help but let out a snicker. They exchanged a look and quickly composed themselves, reaching a silent, mutual agreement to drop the embarrassing topic. After all, Li Yuan was as thick-skinned as a city wall, while their skin was still thin.

After quietly finishing breakfast, Bai Weixi preempted Zhong Tingyue and took the initiative to clear the dishes in the kitchen.

Li Yuan sat on the couch and was just about to turn on the TV when Zhong Tingyue plopped down next to him. Without a word, she gave his abdomen a vicious pinch.

Li Yuan grimaced, sucking in a sharp breath of air. This time, Zhong Tingyue was truly exercising her rights as his girlfriend.

After venting her frustration, she saw him tremble from the pain but remain silent, which made her anger subside a little.

"You big jerk, why didn’t you cry out?"

Li Yuan grinned. "Because it doesn’t hurt!"

Zhong Tingyue lifted her chin. "Oh? Does that mean I didn’t use enough force?"

Li Yuan wrapped his arm around Zhong Tingyue and smiled. "I wasn’t finished. Since it was you who pinched me, it could never truly hurt, no matter how painful it was."

Zhong Tingyue tilted her head back, tossing her hair with a light snort. "Oh? And what kind of logic is that, you big baddie?"

Li Yuan replied with a laugh, "Little Moon, haven’t you heard the saying?"

Zhong Tingyue countered, "What saying?"

"Hitting is a sign of affection, and scolding is a sign of love. The harder you pinch me, the more you love me." Li Yuan held her close, gazing deeply at her flawless face. "Little Moon, I know you love me. That’s why I don’t feel any pain."

Zhong Tingyue burst out laughing and rolled her eyes at him. "Hmph. Senior, you’re just a smooth talker."

"Not at all. Everything I say is from the heart. If you don’t believe me, I’ll tear it out and show you!"

Zhong Tingyue pouted teasingly. "Fine. You show me your heart, and I’ll forgive you for what you did last night."

Li Yuan chuckled. He stuffed both hands into his pajama top, then pulled them out and formed them into the shape of a heart. "Here you go. My heart, for you!"

Seeing Li Yuan so earnestly making a heart symbol with his hands, Zhong Tingyue couldn’t help but giggle, her eyes curving into crescents. She shot him a look and teased, "Senior, this heart of yours is empty. Does that mean you’re heartless? Oh, no wonder you’re such a player. Your heart is hollow. Heehee, am I right, Senior?"

Li Yuan reached out and ruffled her hair. "Little Moon, you’re getting quite cheeky, aren’t you? Daring to tease your husband... Looks like you need a dose of my family discipline!"

With that, he pounced, pinning her to the couch. He lowered his head toward her sensual red lips and kissed her.

Muffled by the kiss, Zhong Tingyue gasped, "Mmph... You baddie... is this your ’family discipline’?"

Li Yuan held her hands down, gazing at the peerless beauty before him with a grin. "Hehe, so? Now do you understand the power of my family discipline? If you don’t behave, I’ll have to move on to ’education by the rod’..."

The moment Zhong Tingyue heard his "education by the rod," she understood instantly. Her face flushed red as she scoffed, "Pah! You big jerk, when did you become so indecent?"

Li Yuan just chuckled, choosing not to answer with words. Instead, his actions provided the truest response...

When Zhong Tingyue saw Li Yuan was truly about to begin his "education by the rod," she panicked, her beautiful face paling with fright. It’s broad daylight, and we’re on the living room couch! Bai Weixi is still washing dishes in the kitchen! After the outrageous things that happened last night, she had no doubt Li Yuan possessed both the lust and the nerve to carry out his "family discipline" right here and now. This baddie was as shameless as he was lecherous...

Seeing that Li Yuan was genuinely about to enforce his discipline, Zhong Tingyue’s heart leaped in alarm, and she quickly begged for mercy. "Senior, I was wrong! Please let me go! Weixi is still here!"

Li Yuan grinned mischievously. "Little Moon, where did all that bravado from a moment ago go? Do you understand how serious my family discipline is now?"

Zhong Tingyue bit her lip, putting on an utterly pitiful expression. "I’m scared, I’m scared. Senior, your family discipline is too terrifying. I’m so, so scared."

Li Yuan was aroused by her playful act. He felt himself start to rise again and couldn’t help but gulp as his gaze was drawn to the playfully bouncing Zhong sisters.

"Little Moon, judging by your expression, you’re not afraid of my discipline at all. In fact, it seems like you want it, right?"

Zhong Tingyue pursed her lips in a light smile. "Heehee, what do you think, Senior?"

Just then, a puzzled voice cut in.

"Hey, what are you two doing?"

Li Yuan looked up to see Bai Weixi staring at them, her cheeks flushed.

Seeing that Bai Weixi had caught them, Zhong Tingyue shyly turned her head away and struggled to get up, her voice barely a whisper. "Li Yuan, let me go!"

Li Yuan gave an awkward grin and released Zhong Tingyue. He stood up, clapped his hands together, and changed the subject without any explanation. "Bai, Little Moon, it’s started raining. Should we head back to school, or just stay here?"

The weather in Modu was terrible today. What began as a drizzle in the morning had turned into a downpour by noon. The sky outside had grown dark, and the faint rumbles of thunder and flashes of lightning could be heard.

Bai Weixi glanced outside, then back around the house. I have so many questions for Li Yuan. What’s the deal with this villa? When did he buy it...?
