Chapter 408 Peeling potatoes
Slight smut at end, really small but I will put a warning nevertheless.Xiao Hua sat down on his bed at once, in fact, he was certain that if Yu Dong used that voice and asked him to kneel as well then he would have done that as well —- he never knew that Yu Dong's angry voice was this hot, why didn't he know about this though?
" Now, that you have sat down, I think you are willing to have a decent conversation like adults with me, right?" she crossed her arms as she looked at Xiao Hua, whose gaze was locked on her face. She thought it was a good thing that he was looking at her so sincerely—- how would she have known that Xiao Hua's gaze was locked on her face wasn't because he was listening sincerely but because he was finding her extremely charming with that stern voice and serious expression.
Yu Dong leaned her head closer and looked at him, " Now, why didn't you tell me about Chen Ying? I did say that you are my responsibility and even if someone tries to cause trouble for you, you should come and tell me, did I not say that?"
Only then did Xiao Hua snap out of her daze and blinked his eyes before lowering his head. " I —- how would I? I have been used to dealing with women like her, I thought that I will be fine… I didn't have the slightest bit of idea that she would be as sticky as candy, I swear, I handled women worse than her."
Listening to his explanation, Yu Dong pinched the bridge of her nose. " Just because you are used to dealing with them, it doesn't mean that you can deal with them every time— don't forget in the past you were a member of the tavern and Xiang Bei used to protect you in her own way, even if she wasn't trying to keep you safe as I am but she did in her own way. You might think that it was you who was dealing with those women but the truth is that they were staying away from you because they did not want to offend Xiang Bei."

" How?" asked Yu Dong, it wasn't that she was trying to put Xiao Hua down but she was genuinely concerned about him. She understood why he was so hesitant about being dependent on a woman but still, this was too much, last time when she said that she will hire a mammy for guarding the house, he refused saying that he wasn't used to having them around. If he had agreed to her suggestion back then——- then today's incident wouldn't have happened.
" I … I will think of something!" He didn't know what he was going to do, maybe he will go and ask Xi Yanqing to help him. But he wouldn't allow himself to be chained like he was when he was living in the tavern, always being followed by a mammy..the last time when he came to look for Yu Dong, only he knew how hard it was for him to shake off the mammy who always followed him.
Yu Dong could see that he was still resistant to the idea of being followed by a mammy and sighed silently but didn't pursue the matter. " Fine, if you don't want to keep a mammy then I will not force you but—-" leaning close, she held Xiao Hua's gaze as she said, " if you don't come to me if something like this happened again then I will give you a smacking."

" Xiao Hua, are you feeling all right?" When Xiao Hua woke up, he found himself crouching on the bed on his four. A sense of panic surged in his heart but then he heard a soft tittering voice as the woman behind him caressed his a*s, " Are you scared Hua'er?"
Yu Dong? This was her voice but what was she doing here? Was he mistaken?
He blinked his eyes as he turned to look over his shoulder and sure enough it was Yu Dong who was looking at him with an expression he has never seen on her face before —- it was a combination of lust and anger… this expression was something that many women have looked at him when he used to refuse them but this was his first time seeing Yu Dong look at him like that and surprisingly, he didn't hate it.
Not even one bit.
" Yu...Dong?" He murmured as the woman behind him sneaked her hand in the crack of his peach and trailed it down causing a moan to escape his lips. " What is it, Hua'er? Were you thinking of someone else when you are with me on the bed huh?"
" No... I ..wasn't" a shuddering gasp left his lips as he felt something cold on his warm skin.
" Really?" mused the voice from behind him.

But maybe she wasn't happy with him because a hard smack landed on his butt and Xiao Hua's eyes snapped open.
" Why did you hit me for?" He shouted in indignation but as he looked around in his room, he realised that there was no Yu Dong, he wasn't on his bed but seem to have fallen on the floor and his pants were a mess.

Li Hanjing went out to relieve himself because he was eight-month pregnant, the urge to go to the restroom was something that he couldn't help but have every second hour. This was something he was used to but what he wasn't used to was seeing Xiao Hua washing his pants in the early morning —-
Li Hanjing: "…." Now, what was this about?
He looked over the sky and sure enough, it was still dark and cold without any signs of dawn breaking. So, he walked toward Xiao Hua and finally asked, " I shouldn't be asking this Hua'er…but what are you doing?"
Xiao Hua was really frustrated, who knew if it was because he couldn't get the sexual relief he was looking for or because he has to clean his pants because he looked at Li Hanjing and scowled. " I am peeling potatoes come and peel with me."
