Chapter 364: Chapter 371 Two Degrees

Li Yifei and the others were already in the car at this moment. Xu Yingying was driving, while Li Yifei helped Xu Shanshan to the back seat. Xu Shanshan didn’t know if she was truly drunk or pretending; she pulled Li Yifei to the back.

Li Yifei had no choice but to sit in the back with Xu Shanshan. At this time, Xu Shanshan leaned sideways onto Li Yifei’s lap, pouting and saying, "Brother-in-law, my head hurts. Help me rub it."

Xu Yingying looked back, frowning, and said, "Sit properly. You’re a big girl now, lying on your brother-in-law’s lap. How do you look?"

Xu Shanshan giggled and said, "I helped you get brother-in-law, and you won’t even let me borrow him for a bit? Stingy!"

"You..." Xu Yingying was at a loss for words, glancing guiltily at Li Yifei. Ever since being with Li Yifei, she always felt like she had tricked him into being with her.

Li Yifei secretly felt a headache too, but if he acted embarrassed at this moment, it would only make Xu Yingying overthink. He smiled and said, "Alright, Shanshan drank a lot, why are you bothering her? I’ll help her rub her head, and you just focus on driving."

Xu Shanshan immediately said, "Brother-in-law is the best." Then she contentedly closed her eyes.

Seeing Xu Shanshan behaving herself, Xu Yingying didn’t say more. She started the car, driving while occasionally glancing at the two of them in the rearview mirror. Seeing Li Yifei behaving properly and helping Xu Shanshan with her head, she refrained from overthinking, but frowned and said, "That person just now seemed to be Song Ziqiao. Wasn’t he removed from his position as deputy county head? Why is he here again?"

Rubbing Xu Shanshan’s head, Li Yifei said indifferently, "Who knows why he ended up here again."

Xu Yingying, worried, said, "You still need to be careful. The way he looked at you was quite vicious, probably seeking revenge."

Xu Shanshan opened her eyes excitedly, saying, "Brother-in-law, so you have someone wanting revenge too? That’s so exciting."

Xu Yingying sternly said, "Shanshan, Song Ziqiao is not a small character. He has strong backing from the province. Originally he was the deputy county head here, and now because of your brother-in-law, he’s been removed. He won’t let it go easily, so it’s nothing fun."

Li Yifei squinted slightly and said, "Don’t worry. He can’t do anything to me."

Seeing Li Yifei’s calm and composed demeanor in the rearview mirror, Xu Yingying suddenly felt that Li Yifei was indeed different from ordinary people. Facing such matters, most would be a bit flustered, but despite knowing Song Ziqiao’s background, Li Yifei remained so calm. This kind of calmness made her feel very secure. Having such a husband was indeed a blessing.

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying’s face suddenly turned a bit red. Li Yifei was now her real husband. Remembering last night’s intimacy, but due to some bleeding, things ended unsatisfactorily, and she could feel how cautious Li Yifei was. After understanding the matter today, she feared that evening Li Yifei would...

Although Li Yifei treated Song Ziqiao with apparent disregard, he did not underestimate him in his heart. As a super special forces soldier, Li Yifei knew all too well that underestimating any enemy might lead to a heavy price. Although he hadn’t experienced it firsthand, he had seen too many such cases.

No, he had experienced it firsthand. Someone as harmless as Meng Xiaofei had already wounded him critically, which could have been deadly if it were an enemy. And Xu Shanshan, this sister-in-law, had schemed so well against him that he had no defenses and had already become Xu Yingying’s husband.

If Song Ziqiao faced him directly, he had nothing to fear. However, he worried that Song Ziqiao might use underhanded tricks or target people around him, which would be very troublesome.

Xu Yingying and Xu Shanshan were usually with him, so he wasn’t too concerned about Ye Yunzhu, given her strong background and her position as township chief. Song Ziqiao probably wouldn’t dare to make a move lightly. But Su Yiyi, still at school, if someone targeted her, it would be easy. So, for a while, he indeed needed to ensure Su Yiyi’s safety.

The sudden touch of warmth in his palm brought Li Yifei’s thoughts back to reality. He noticed Xu Yingying glaring at him fiercely in the rearview mirror. Looking down, he felt embarrassed; his hand had shifted from rubbing Xu Shanshan’s forehead to her cheek.

Xu Shanshan was undoubtedly faking sleep; otherwise, her breath wouldn’t be so hot.

He quickly moved his hand back to Xu Shanshan’s forehead, awkwardly saying, "I was just thinking of something else."

Xu Yingying, knowledgeable in psychology, saw Li Yifei’s eyes appear a bit blurred when he touched her younger sister’s face, suggesting he was deep in thought. Although she felt a bit uncomfortable, she didn’t blame Li Yifei, teasingly saying, "We’re home—aren’t you getting out?"

Li Yifei hurriedly carried the pretending-to-sleep Xu Shanshan out of the car. Xu Shanshan acted so convincingly, as if she were genuinely drunk and at Li Yifei’s mercy.

However, when Xu Yingying wasn’t paying attention, her small hand pinched Li Yifei’s shoulder a few times, and Li Yifei had to feign ignorance.

Back home, Li Yifei carried Xu Shanshan to her bedroom, laid her on the bed, and left the room.

After tidying up, Li Yifei and Xu Yingying returned to their bedroom, both wearing thin pajamas. Such scenes had happened countless times, and Xu Yingying didn’t pay much attention to it normally. But today, she felt a bit shy.

Usually, before bed, she would work on her laptop for a while, but today she didn’t have the mind for it and went straight to bed, avoiding making eye contact with Li Yifei.

Li Yifei had already opened up his heart, turned off the main lights, leaving only the bedside lamp, and lay down beside Xu Yingying, slipping an arm under her neck to pull her into his embrace.

Yingying snuggled into Li Yifei’s arms, her heart pounding uncontrollably.

Li Yifei stroked her hair without speaking, then slowly moved his hand down, caressing Xu Yingying’s back.

Tasting the sweetness of love for the first time, her body suddenly felt weak, and her breathing became heated, yet she bit her lip, raising her head to say to Li Yifei, "Yifei, being together like this... Do you feel wronged?"

Li Yifei paused, smiling and saying, "Why should I feel wronged?"

"Being together with me, initially it was my mom fooling you about being sick to get you to marry me, then Shanshan tricked you into believing you had a relationship with me. I’m afraid you’ll think our family is forcing you to be with me."

Li Yifei chuckled, "I got such a good deal. People marry wives and need a house and a car. Look at me, no house, no car, not only do I have a wife, but also a house and a car. I saved decades of hard work!"

Yingying, still a bit worried, said, "I know you’re not incapable of making money; you just don’t care about it. I’m worried you might still have grudges."

Li Yifei suddenly flipped over and pinned Xu Yingying beneath him, saying, "I do have a grudge now. I haven’t even gotten to love my wife properly yet."

"Ah..." Xu Shanshan let out a low cry, but it was quickly silenced by Li Yifei’s lips.

That night, Xu Yingying truly felt what a strong man could bring to a woman, as if her soul had left her body. She understood why once a couple shares a bed, their emotions deepen.

"Oh no, I didn’t use any contraception!" After passion, both were utterly exhausted, but Xu Yingying suddenly gasped, looking nervously at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei chuckled, "No protection is fine. If you get pregnant, we’ll just have the baby."

"But... Weren’t you not thinking about having kids yet?"

"Before, we weren’t real spouses, so naturally, there was mental pressure. But now, we’re truly a couple; having a kid is normal."

"No, no, you haven’t quit smoking! If I get pregnant, it’ll affect the baby’s health. Plus, you drank so much tonight; we can’t have a baby now."

Li Yifei wiped his brow in fake sweat, realizing that the excuses he used to avoid having kids were now being used against him. He laughed and said, "So what should I do?"

"Since you... since you did it, you should go and buy contraceptive pills."

"So late, do you want me to go?"

"Good husband, please go. I really can’t get pregnant right now. If I get pregnant, I won’t be able to abort it, and if there’s any health issue, we’d regret it forever."

Li Yifei smiled wryly, "Alright, I’ll go now."

Yingying kissed Li Yifei on the cheek and gave him a sweet smile. "Okay, hurry up."

Li Yifei reluctantly got up, put on his clothes, and left.

Contraceptive pills were available at pharmacies, and Li Yifei remembered one near Xu Yingying’s house, so he just walked over.

The pharmacy was open twenty-four hours, but to Li Yifei’s disappointment, while there were contraceptives, there were no emergency contraceptives, so he had to try another place.

When he couldn’t find it after checking several places, he found himself quite far already and returning for the car would have been troublesome. Spotted a store selling adult products in an alley and thought they might have them, so he went in to ask.

They did have them, so Li Yifei bought a pack, along with some condoms. Although he wasn’t fond of using them, given their situation, they made sense right now.

Carrying these items out of the shop, Li Yifei noticed two police cars speeding over. A group of police officers rushed out and stopped at a storefront, led by none other than Lin Qiong.

Lin Qiong, still a station head at the time, hadn’t yet been promoted, though Li Yifei knew it was imminent.

Lin Qiong was no longer the inexperienced young officer she used to be. Standing by the car, she said in a low voice, "Old Li, Little Liu, you two watch the back. The rest of you, come with me."

Two officers moved to the back, and Lin Qiong led the others into the store. Li Yifei was close by, but Lin Qiong didn’t notice him.

Soon, there was a bout of noise from inside, but it quickly quieted down in a rather eerie way, and a bloody smell wafted out. Alarmed, Li Yifei rushed inside, realizing Lin Qiong must have encountered trouble...
