His Rui

Chapter 579 Xi Ling Was Punished Unreasonably

It was after more than a shichen that Xi Ying opened the door of the room.

Afraid that the cold wind would enter the room, he closed the door immediately.

His face stayed calm when he saw Li Rui standing a few steps away from the door. Li Hua's face was red indicating that she knew what was going on inside the room.

However, it was not because of shame that she was red but it was because of anger.

Her mistress just collapsed last night because of the exhaustion and this man…he was a beast in Li Hua's eyes.

Completely unaware that the maid was cursing him inside her heart, Xi Ying ordered coldly.

"Bring warm water."

Li Hua suppressed her anger and immediately left from there to do the said job.

She brought the warm water quickly because she was hoping that her mistress would finally be able to rest.

Xi Ying took the large bowl and cloth from the maid's hands and then opened the door again. Only after the door was closed again, did Li Hua raise her head and glare at the closed door.

Turning around to look at the woman lying on the bed, Xi Ying couldn't help but feel a fire burning inside his body again.

Li Rui was now asleep.

Guilt flashed through his eyes as he thought that he should have restrained himself. But today Li Rui has been especially responsive.

Every time, he tried to stop, her sweet moans would make him unable to do so.

And it had been a long time since they had last done it.

Xi Ying's adam apple wobbled as he stepped towards the bed and removed the blanket that was covering her body gently.

Suppressing the heat inside his body, he gently cleaned her body.

After that, he left the room for a few moments to wash. Soon he came back and lay down on the bed beside his wife.

His deep eyes stared at her sleeping face until he closed them and fell asleep.

Xi Ying didn't dare to sleep for a long time. He knew that Li Rui had not eaten anything since she had come back from the Imperial Palace.

After sleeping for half a shichen, he asked Liu Lan and Li Hua to go to the kitchen and ask them to prepare the meals.

Liu Lan and Li Hua divided the work as they needed to arrange the tables also and then left from there. Just when Xi Ying was about to go back inside the room, he heard Xi Ling's voice.

"Father"

Xi Ying turned around again and found his three and half year old son running towards him. His indifferent eyes softened immediately. He was seeing his son for the first time since he had returned from the Imperial Palace.

Everything happened so suddenly that he just asked his shadow guards whether his son was fine or not. After they told him that nothing happened to Xi Ling as Li Rui protected him very well, he just left Plum Courtyard to kill Zhao Wang Lei because he had been too angry.

Xi Ying bent down on picked his son in his arms. However, his lips couldn't help but twitch in resentment when his son wrinkled his small forehead at his actions and said eagerly

"Father, leave Xi Ling, Xi Ling wants to go inside the room and meet Mother."

Completely, in a mood of spanking the butt of the little brat, Xi Ying asked his son

"Then, why did you call me?"

"So that Father would not close the door again. Before also Xi Ling had come to see Mother but Sister Li Hua didn't let Xi Ling go and when Xi Ling tried to sneak, the door was locked."

Xi Ling who explained to his father everything very nicely pouted at his last few words.

Xi Ying sighed and ignored the little bit of resentment inside his heart. He had returned from the Imperial Palace after a whole day but his son still didn't show some affection.

They say right in the end. Sons are close to their mothers.

His son was not filial at all towards him!

At the same time, he was happy. Regardless of whether they stayed away from each other for the whole three years, Li Rui had still developed a lovely bond with her son that he no longer seemed to love him like her.

He wished that this time they would have daughters as he had heard that daughters are closer to their fathers.

A sweet and lovely daughter like Li Rui…the more Xi Ying thought, the more he liked his thought.

And he no longer liked the brat in his arms.

With a hmph, he put Xi Ling down on the ground. Xi Ling, however, was very happy and wanted to walk past his father to go inside the room and see his mother.

However, before he could do so, Xi Ying dragged him away from his collar in the living room and then gave him a book to read. He also ordered his son not to move away from here until he is asked to.

Xi Ling pouted with teary eyes as he looked at his father's leaving back. He promised himself inside his heart that he would definitely complain to his mother about his father.

His father was becoming more and more reasonable with every passing day.

He didn't do anything wrong but he was still given an extra book to read waahh…!

After Li Hua informed Xi Ying that the meal was ready and already served, Xi Ying woke up the deeply asleep Li Rui reluctantly.

He didn't wish to wake her up but she had not eaten anything since midnight and now it was late in the morning.

"Rui…"

He caressed her cheeks gently as he tried to wake her up. However, he was left surprised when she didn't wake up immediately like every other time.

Instead, she frowned as if she was in a lot of pain.

Xi Ying was worried as he shook Li Rui's shoulders lightly to wake her up. He couldn't bear to see even that expression on her face as if she was being tortured heavily.

"Rui…"

He said a little loudly and suddenly Li Rui opened her eyes and called out his name.

"Ying…"
