Chapter 299: How could he do such a thing?

After cleaning up, Yelu Yan dipped a soft cloth in warm water and sat upon the bed, lifting the curtain, "Let me clean you up."

As he spoke, Yelu Yan reached to lift the quilt from Li Xianyun’s legs.

Li Xianyun instantly became flustered, squeezing her legs together and covering her waist and abdomen with the blanket, "I can clean myself."

Yelu Yan looked at her with a smile, his hand not releasing the quilt, "It’s not like I haven’t seen it before."

Seeing that Yelu Yan was determined to have his way, Li Xianyun’s face flushed, and she said in a soft voice, "Don’t."

"Be good. Don’t you still have many things to do today? It is not good to delay like this."

Yelu Yan was adept at cajoling her, knowing how to make her yield.

"But..."

"Be good."

Li Xianyun hesitated for a moment, then slowly let go of her hands, allowing Yelu Yan to lift the blanket from her lower body.

Yelu Yan placed his hand on her thigh, touched it, and said, "Lift it up."

Li Xianyun blushed, raising her leg and turning her head away from him.

Yelu Yan chuckled softly, leaning down and wiping her gently bit by bit.

He was very close, his breath falling on the crease of her leg.

Being such a sensitive area, exposed to Yelu Yan’s intense gaze and his deliberately slowed movements, Li Xianyun could not remain calm.

Her eyelashes quivered slightly; with half-closed eyes, she gently bit her tender red lips, moaning softly. Her white, delicate legs twitched as she squirmed restlessly.

The cloth was warm, evidently, someone had come prepared, Yelu Yan had planned from the beginning to playfully torment her.

Not only that, but Yelu Yan moved very slowly, obviously doing it on purpose.

He even teased her with his hand.

Li Xianyun quickly grabbed his rough hand, "Husband, don’t... "

But the man removed her hand and leaned in closer with his head.

Li Xianyun was both shocked and embarrassed; she never knew that a man and a woman could interact like this.

She arched backward like a bow, struggling to breathe as if a fish out of water, only able to gasp heavily, "Husband..."

He then became unrestrained.

Li Xianyun was like a little cat whose scruff had been caught, immobilized at her vital spot, and could only tightly clutch the pillow or the quilt.

How could he...

After a long time, Yelu Yan finally climbed up to her, his thin lips flushed, and his heated gaze fell on her, emitting chuckles, "Did you like it?"

Li Xianyun blushed and ignored him.

Nevertheless, emotions pressed heavily on her like clouds choking the sky, an unresolved storm waiting to break.

Yelu Yan, always perceptive of the human heart, surely knew her thoughts at the moment. He enveloped her beneath him and became unabashedly bold.

The bed curtains trembled, the bed creaked rapidly, accompanied by panting...

Li Xianyun was so exhausted by him that she just wanted to lie on the bed and sleep.

Yelu Yan took care of the rest, cleaning the stains and then dressing, ordering someone to prepare hot water for her bath.

Li Xianyun dared not let him "attend" to her anymore and insisted on bathing herself no matter what.

Just now, when he had been cleaning her and pressing his head against her, he had asked if she liked it and if she wanted him to "attend" to her like that in the future.

Such words coming from his mouth had an overwhelming impact.

He was usually so reserved and indifferent, a person of restrained and composed demeanor, it was as if someone had opened his vestibule, and he became increasingly unrestrained and indulgent.

Knowing she was tired, Yelu Yan ceased teasing her and let her bathe and dress by herself.

When Li Xianyun finished her bath and came out, she saw Yelu Yan sitting at the Warm Pavilion’s desk, looking at the technical drawings she had made.

Hearing the noise, Yelu Yan looked up at her, his lips curled in a thick smile, "What is this?"

"A turnover cart and a water-lifting device."

Speaking, Li Xianyun had already made her way to the desk.

Yelu Yan reached out to take her small hand, pulling her to sit in his arms and onto his lap, planting a kiss on her hibiscus-like delicate face.

An indescribable intimacy.

Li Xianyun was very serious about her work, taking the drawing of the water-lifting device from his hands, "This is a water-lifting device; it can be built by rivers and lakes. By rotating the fan, water in the buckets on the blades can be directed into a channel, saving a lot of labor."

She then placed the drawing of the turnover cart on top, "If there’s a place with high terrain, we can build a turnover cart to lift water to high ground, and it only requires one or two people to tread here to operate it."

Li Xianyun explained as she pointed things out to Yelu Yan.
