Chapter 147: One Night of Wailing (Third Watch)

  Li Xie originally wanted to sneak a peek, but flew to the window and heard Duke Aiwei's muttering to himself, instantly making his bones go soft.

  There is still a thought of peeping.

  "Ah!" Duke Avielle covered her mouth, eyes wide with surprise: "The Goddess of Life above! Is this a miracle?"

  Li Xie patted the wing of his sword to steady himself, and his small eyebrow twitched: "The Goddess of Life is above, she heard that my Meng Na misses me, just now she transformed me over here, but I don't know if my Meng Na will open the window to let me in. If not, the Goddess of Life might turn me back into a chrysanthemum city."

  "No!" Duke Avielle hastily opened the window and urged, "Goddess of Life above, please don't send His Highness away!"

  Li Xie slipped into the window, the sword blade's wings had just been retracted, and Duchess Aiwier was already pouncing into Li Xie's arms, tightly hugging him, her body trembling.

  Li Xie couldn't understand why Duke Aiwei was so proactive and enthusiastic, but he could feel the warmth and moisture seeping into his chest, and his heart suddenly went soft. He wondered why she would be like this? Especially when he felt Duke Aiwei's powerful hug, even a numb person could sense the reluctance and love in her hands!

  "Good... " Li Xie stroked the hair of Duke Aiwei, burying his head in her temples, smelling the fresh and elegant fragrance, and said softly: "I'm here, you should be happy."

  "Avril Duke said with a sob: 'How come you haven't come back for so long?! Do you know, Mona misses you, misses you so much!'"

  Avril's words were like gentle yet powerful hands, softly massaging Li Xie's heart, each word accurately hitting the acupoints, making Li Xie feel numb all over.

  The sleeping master said: Don't miss any woman who holds you tightly and says she misses you.

  Li Xie tightly hugged Duke Avier, no matter what lay ahead, from now on, he was unwilling to let go!

  The two held each other for a long time, and Li Xie finally felt that the slender body of Duke Aiwei no longer trembled. She stopped sobbing, her breathing gradually evened out, as if she was about to fall asleep.

  Li Xie still didn't know that when he left the Imperial City, he made Duke Aiwei think of him every day, what a huge torture for Duke Aiwei!

  Longing is a chronic illness, there is no good medicine for it, and it will only get worse with time!

  Every day, the Duke of Avril's thoughts are lingering and deepening, she can't help but think about it, can't forget! For a whole year, how haggard her heart is!

  She was already exhausted, now that Li Xie had arrived, she didn't think of anything else, just wanting to hold on tightly, under the happiness of this moment, fell asleep with a smile.

  As a thoughtful and considerate man, he should have gently helped the Duke of Evie to bed, then hugged her and whispered sweet nothings to coax her into a beautiful sleep.

  However, being meticulous and considerate in emotions requires experience accumulation. Any man who claims he has never been in love but is meticulous and considerate in emotions must be lying.

  Li Xie was still young and couldn't be expected to be meticulous and considerate, but he did think of moving Duke Aiwier onto the bed.

  "Come, let's sit on the bed."

  Li Xie helped Duke Aiwei sit on the jade stone bed, and Duke Aiwei finally stopped hugging Li Xie, sitting on the bed, feeling quite embarrassed, she was shy.

  The thoughts of a man made her long-standing faith-built indifference disappear, and she finally had the shyness of a daughter's home, rather than feeling strange when she was naked in the Tower of Eternity.

  She is no longer a holy maiden who does not eat human fireworks, but a fallen spirit in the mortal world.

  But she still looks so attractive!

  Her beautiful and gentle appearance already has enough lethal power over men, now with a faint holy light on her pale skin, it adds an indescribable holiness. At first glance, I thought the goddess had descended, but upon closer inspection, she truly is a goddess!

  Li Xie just stared at Duke Evie's face, getting infatuated.

  Knocking down the goddess is every loser's dream, Li Xie has now transformed from a loser to a high-rich-handsome man, but with the body of a high-rich-handsome man, he still holds the dreams of a loser.

  Knock her down!

  Li Xie's mind was left with only this thought!

  Especially when he saw Duke Avril's attire, Li Xie's thoughts were even more blood-boiling!

  Even at night, it's still hot as if it were daytime!

  Avril lay in her bedroom, ready for sleep, wearing only a pair of shorts and a white camisole, without even a bellyband underneath.

  This is pajamas, transparent thin gauze pajamas!

  It is said that a woman's nightgown is the most seductive, but Li Xie only felt that Duke Avier's nightgown was not seductive at all. What was visible through the nightgown was truly deadly!

  The great sleeper said: A man's greatness is due to his noble appearance, but also because of his humble and lowly nature behind his back!

  Li Xie has already felt that a certain part of himself is incredibly great! So he decided to find a noble excuse, do something despicable, and show off his greatness!

  "What are you looking at?" Duke Avielle said in a soft and delicate voice, her face flushing with embarrassment as she lowered her head.

  "Ah...... look at my Dreamer!" Li Xie's small eyebrows twitched, and he took out the Life Goddess' gift, saying softly: "I'm giving it to you. I've been struggling outside all this time, just to give this to you."

  At this moment, Li Xie finally realized why the rich merchants and high officials on Earth were willing to give their mistresses expensive gifts. They also had the body of a high-ranking official, but they had the dreams of a loser! In order to win over the goddess, they could always view money as worthless paper!

  The hymn of the Goddess of Life is precious, and the star crystals on it are even related to the secret of becoming a god, but Li Xie still sent it out without hesitation. Compared to pushing down the goddess, these are nothing.

  A loser should pay everything for his dream to be called a qualified loser!

  "Ah!" Duke Avriel covered her mouth, blinked lightly, and her eyes were immediately caught by the starry ice crystal.

  There's a saying that diamonds are the stars that women can pluck, and this star sapphire is the star that has already been delivered into the hands of the Duchess of Aveyard.

  People like to equate women's love for gems with romance, but that's not the case. Women's fondness for these sparkling things is just a natural instinct, like a giant dragon. And women are also like little kittens, with an insatiable curiosity. If a sparkling gemstone also emits a mysterious color, it will surely capture a woman's heart.

  This star crystal is indeed so!

  And when women are infatuated with jewels, they think this is the most beautiful and precious thing. At that time, they will think of love. Yes, who gives them the most beautiful and precious things, can't it show how much he values her?

  Duke Avril's eyes were filled with happy tears, her hands didn't go to take the gift of the Goddess of Life, but instead circled around Li Xie's neck, and then actively covered his lips.

  The man was willing to give her something so beautiful and precious, and she was also willing to give him the most beautiful and precious thing of hers, that thing is called love!

  This time, the two of them deeply kissed!

  Li Xie had already drawn his sword and was ready to strike. At this moment, he received the request of Duke Aiwei, how could he hold back?

  No lofty excuses are needed, nor any base actions, just follow your instincts.

  Li Xie's hands covered Duke Aiwei's chest and pushed hard.

  People often say that life is in motion, and motion creates life. There is a kind of exercise that perfectly interprets this sentence, and the inspiration for rubbing wood to make fire was also obtained from this exercise.

  Control of fire allowed humans to continue, this movement is the foundation of human continuation.

  This is a friction movement, the duration may be short or long, but it won't be too long. In short, this movement makes all human beings indulge in it, including Li Xie!

  Tonight is a strange night, there are no birds flying in the sky, the birds have not returned to their nests, the birds are in the cave, fighting bloody battles!

  In a harmonious society, such thrilling events as bloody battles will be left for later generations to speculate about.

  A night of wailing...

  Li Xie was completely controlled by his instincts, only using force again and again, fighting one battle after another, as if venting the resentment accumulated over twenty years! He enjoyed it so much that he almost forgot everything else, only remembering that when he was on duty with his gun, Duke Avril came up to him and said "Don't"!

  The next morning.

  Adam and Eve, no, Li Xie and Duke Aiwei were naked and entwined on the jade bed. Duke Aiwei was lying on her side, resting her head on Li Xie's arm, fast asleep.

  Li Xie was too excited and couldn't sleep. Although his body had enough energy, he felt weak and just wanted to lie down quietly.

  This feeling of weakness was just spiritual weakness, but at the same time, Li Xie had an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

  I am a real man now!

  Li Xie looked at the woman in his arms, his first woman, with a kind of inexplicable feeling that made him stare foolishly at her.

  You may not be my only one, but you will be my forever!

  Lee-ah spoke thus in his heart to Duke Averell.

  It's already impossible to be alone, after all, there is still Xiao An in Chrysanthemum City, but forever can be achieved as long as you work hard!

  Looking at Duke Avril's adorable eyelashes, slightly trembling eyelids, Li Xie couldn't help but smile and moved his arm to let Duke Avril rest on his chest, letting her sleep more comfortably.

  Duke Avril murmured, slowly waking up. Last night's adult ceremony had added a bit of charm to her face. After kissing Li Xie's chest, Duke Avril said softly: "Your Highness, from now on, Meng Na is yours."

  Li Xie gently kissed her forehead and said softly: "I'm not a person who abandons things halfway, nor am I someone who forgets the old for the new. From now on, you'll follow me, no need for any sacred rituals or royal titles, all you need to know is that you're Li Xie's woman!"

  Saying that, Li Xie took out the Life Goddess's Gift of Praise that Duke Evielle hadn't taken last night and smiled: "This thing is our token of love now, heh heh. It's called the Life Goddess's Gift of Praise. Apart from having the functions a staff should have, it can also store divine light."

  As soon as he mentioned Shenguang, Li Xie suddenly stared blankly, his eyes wide open: "You... the holy light on your body is gone?"

  Wishing you all a happy Lantern Festival.
