Chapter 258 - Every Moment Of My Life Belongs To You
Li Hua covered her mouth to hide her smile and Li Rui looked at Xi Ying with raised eyebrows.
Xi Ying who could feel her wife\'s gaze on himself smiled bitterly inside his heart.
According to the thoughts Li Rui had inside her mind for him, she perhaps had thought that he would accept Li Rong\'s proposal.
After all, in Li Rui\'s eyes, he would not leave such a good chance to break Li Clan apart.
But then, even if he refused, she would just think that it was his plan to win General Li\'s trust completely.
Xi Ying sighed inside his heart as he analyzed his own situation.
However, at this moment, he was really angry that Li Na still dared to plan after whatever she faced during the Imperial banquet.
Her courage was surely very great.
Perhaps he should have disfigured her face also.
Xi Ying\'s eyes flickered with intense coldness as he looked at the two women standing in front of me.
The next moment, however, no one knew what came to his mind and his eyes brightened suddenly.
He turned to look at Li Rui with a smile on his lips who was silently watching everything.
Li Rong, on the other hand, just came out of the shock she had just gotten.
After she married Li Qiang, she was the First Madam Li of Li Clan. Although Li Qiang didn\'t become a General, for so many years no one had ever dared to disrespect her like this.
Everyone would always try to accommodate her … even if it was Li Heng\'s wife, Yi Jie.
Her body trembled with anger and humiliation as she remembered how Xi Ying had asked her to shut her mouth just now.
She raised her trembling finger at Xi Ying and said loudly
"You…You…"
However, she couldn\'t move ahead from this \'You\'.
With a parted mouth, she saw Xi Ying walking towards Li Rui and suddenly picking her up from the chair she was sitting on.
Li Rong, Li Na, and Li Hua watched in shock as the young Prime Minister first picked Li Rui from the chair in his arms, and then he himself sat on the chair ….with Li Rui in his arms…on his lap.
Not only these three but the person sitting on Xi Ying\'s lap was also shocked by the turn of events.
Li Rui\'s lips were slightly parted as she looked at the beautiful face in front of her eyes.
Her other hand was still inside her sleeve holding the knife she had to protect herself. When she had seen Xi Ying walking towards herself her hand had unconsciously gone to her knife and she was even ready to attack the man but she had not expected the situation to turn out like this.
She closed her mouth and her eyes narrowed slightly as she felt the hand around her waist roaming around.
The man, however, had a very innocent smile on his face in response to her threatening eyes as he asked
"Rui, do you feel alone here? Why didn\'t you tell me? Although I spend my every free shichen with you, I had not known that you feel lonely in Xi Manor."
A gentle kiss fell on her forehead and Li Rui closed her eyes tightly as her jaw clenched with anger.
Xi Ying leaned back. The smile was still present on his lips as he continued
"You should have told me. I would have freed more time to spend with you."
The slender finger caressed the soft skin of her cheek and Xi Ying said after a small pause
"After all, each and every moment of my life belong to you."
All this while, Li Rui had been looking into Xi Ying\'s deep black eyes coldly. However, she could not maintain her coldness when she saw uttermost sincerity and genuineness in Xi Ying\'s eyes as he said those words.
Her heart unconsciously skipped a beat as she continued to look into those black eyes.
What was it that she saw in his eyes?
She could not understand that particular emotion.
Just as Li Rui was starting to find everything around herself going blurry, she heard a scream and came out of her trance.
Li Na was looking at the scene in front of her eyes with red eyes. In her anger, she pressed the hand she was holding so hard that Li Rong screamed suddenly and threw away her hand.
The scream broke the sensual atmosphere between the couple.
Both of them looked at Li Rong and Li Na. Li Rong was still pressing her hand as she looked at Li Na with a strange expression on her face.
Li Na felt embarrassed by the whole situation and looked at her mother apologetically.
However, their attention was diverted when they heard Xi Ying\'s voice again.
The Young Prime Minister held his wife\'s cheek gently and made her look at himself.
"Rui, don\'t pay attention to useless people. Look at your husband only."
Speechlessness flashed through Li Rui\'s for a second and the next moment she finally learned to cooperate with Xi Ying.
She lowered her head pretending to be shy as she said calmly
"Lord need not worry. Rui doesn\'t feel lonely here. Rui is living very well."
Li Rong was again left furious by Xi Ying\'s words. She glanced at Xi Ying for one last time and grabbed her daughter\'s arm.
\'Arrogant\'
After muttering this angrily in a low voice, she left Plum Courtyard with Li Na.
Xi Ying looked at the back of two leaving women with narrowed eyes.
Li Rui noticed that her aunt and Li Na were not present now and her face gained its usual calmness back. She was about to get up from Xi Ying\'s lap but she didn\'t get any time to do so as the next moment, she heard Xi Ying saying something to Li Hua
"Make arrangements for your mistress.. She will go to Li Manor with me."
