My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 161 - 158: Love, Just the Two of Us

Lin Zhenxin initially didn’t feel anything, just that the skirt underwater kept wrapping around her legs, itching and slippery.

But later, as Li Yanan got closer, she finally sensed something was amiss.

He had a smile on his lips, and his usually sharp and cold black hair was dampened by the water, with droplets trickling down.

Sliding across his high nose, they fell onto her face!

"You..." Although she had long been accustomed to Li Yanan’s appearance, when she unintentionally locked eyes with his captivating peach blossom eyes...

Lin Zhenxin’s heart couldn’t help but start racing uncontrollably!

Holding her breath, she unconsciously took a step back.

But her foot slipped, and she fell backward out of inertia.

Lin Zhenxin nervously closed her eyes, waiting for the moment she would hit the water.

But in the next second, a solid arm suddenly appeared at her waist, pulling her back into his embrace.

Just as she opened her eyes, Lin Zhenxin felt a gentle force pressed against her lips.

Watching the man in front of her, eyes closed and deeply kissing her, a corner of her heart turned soft and mushy.

Despite having been with Li Yanan for a long time, her heart still fluttered like a deer.

"I’ll teach you how to swim." She finally heard his voice after who knows how long, even as she felt the air in her lungs being squeezed out...

She nodded blankly, a faint pink blossoming on her translucent face...

Lin Zhenxin was definitely not a good student.

She was somewhat afraid of water, and though Li Yanan’s arm held her at the waist, her entire body was still tense like a rock.

"Don’t be scared; first let yourself float in the water."

Li Yanan stood in the water wearing only swim trunks, protecting her with an absolute stance.

"I can’t, I feel my hands and feet are uncontrollable in the water!"

Lin Zhenxin resurfaced again, her face full of panic, making her petite face look genuinely frightened.

"Before doing something, don’t tell yourself you can’t! You keep saying you can’t; naturally, you’ll believe you really can’t!"

Li Yanan’s steady voice gradually calmed Lin Zhenxin’s restless heart.

She submerged her face back into the water, letting her limbs extend and feel the flow of the water, allowing the buoyancy to lift her up.

"Look, I’m floating!"

Lin Zhenxin’s eyes were full of surprise, though it was only a few seconds, she really felt like she was floating on the water’s surface.

She was controlling the water, not the water surrounding her!

Li Yanan smiled, like coaxing a child, he cooperated with her.

Only occasionally, a slight dimness would cross his expression.

"What’s wrong? Are you feeling unhappy?" Lin Zhenxin sensitively noticed, looking at him like this.

"It’s just some insignificant matters."

Li Yanan didn’t want to say, and seeing him like this, Lin Zhenxin tactfully didn’t pursue it further.

Lin Zhenxin didn’t ask anymore, but Li Yanan felt something indescribable in his heart, holding her waist as they moved to the side of the pool.

Amid Lin Zhenxin’s exclamation, Li Yanan used just his two hands to lift her completely out of the water.

Then, with one arm, he hoisted himself up to sit beside her.

The outdoor temperature in Danang was approaching thirty degrees, and even at night, it was sultry.

With the sea breeze blowing, Lin Zhenxin sat there in her wet dress, her feet soaking in the warm pool water.

She was enjoying it when she felt Li Yanan reach out, taking her fingers in his grasp.

Her soft hands, long soaked in water, had fingertips that were a bit wrinkled.

"They always say the moon is rounder abroad, why can’t I see it?"

Lin Zhenxin looked up at the sky, the distant Meixi Beach filled with music and laughter, while the moon quietly hung in the sky.

"That’s because the moon abroad isn’t rounder at all."

Li Yanan’s calming voice gave Lin Zhenxin a sense of indescribable reliance.

Their ten fingers entwined tightly, as if born that way; Lin Zhenxin liked the feeling of being held by his broad, generous palm.

"I always thought Vietnam was poor, but I didn’t expect it to be so beautiful here!"

Lin Zhenxin sincerely marveled.

Whether it was the local scenery or the local customs, she really liked it.

"Isn’t it because I’m beside you?" Li Yanan tilted his head, seriously asking her.

Lin Zhenxin blushed with a bashful smile, her cheeks burning hot.

"Why aren’t you happy?" She keenly sensed Li Yanan’s mood, and all the previous words were just preludes.

The answer to her question was Li Yanan’s brief silence.

"I just suddenly thought of the time I used to spend with He Bainian."

Li Yanan finally spoke, and Lin Zhenxin never expected he would remember He Bainian.

"He Bainian?"

Why... would he suddenly think of him?

"After going abroad, there was a time when my life was very difficult, before I met Dongting and Mo Chi..."

"He Bainian and I talked about everything."

In a sense, his friendship with He Bainian somewhat changed Li Yanan’s gloomy nature.

"Even though he was born rich, he inherently lacked the arrogance of a wealthy scion, which is rare and commendable in itself."

Lin Zhenxin said nothing, but she could detect a hint of nostalgia from Li Yanan’s eyes.

"We once shared a bond as close as life itself."

If it weren’t for this...

Many times, given what He Bainian had done before, Li Yanan’s temperament wouldn’t have let him off easily.

"Then why did you two later..." Lin Zhenxin’s voice trailed off.

She seemed to have remembered something.

She had once searched for that woman’s photos in a browser.

So beautiful that even she, as a woman, felt a bit inferior.

"Was it because of... He Nuoxin?"

This name was rarely mentioned between the two, like a topic that couldn’t be touched.

Neither of them voluntarily brought it up.

Li Yanan fell silent for a moment.

"You know how protective He Bainian is of He Nuoxin. Back then, his biological mother died early, and the woman his father later married... unbeknownst to him, abused He Nuoxin." Li Yanan spoke carefully, and these...

He Bainian had actually once told Lin Zhenxin.

"He Nuoxin was cherished by the He family as their little princess from a young age. Her personality was somewhat introverted and fragile, especially after her mother’s early death, and she wouldn’t tell anyone about the abuse, suppressing it deep inside, leaving her very insecure."

This was the first time Lin Zhenxin heard Li Yanan’s evaluation of He Nuoxin.

"By the time the He Family discovered it, it was too late, and He Bainian fell out with his father over it. He once told me that even if it cost him his life, he would protect He Nuoxin at all costs."

"He said he could not lose his sister after losing his mother."

"He’s a good brother." Lin Zhenxin said.

Indeed, she could sense this from her interactions with He Bainian.

Plus, with all the help he’d given her before...

"Unfortunately, no matter how hard He Bainian tried, he couldn’t make He Nuoxin..."

Li Yanan, as if recalling something, had a serious expression.

"She was already repressed, and later the He Family gave in to all her demands, which exacerbated He Nuoxin’s personality flaws to an uncontrollable degree!"

Lin Zhenxin’s eyes widened in shock; what did Li Yanan mean by this?

What did he mean by... personality flaws?

Li Yanan seemed unwilling to continue with the topic, seeing her round almond eyes staring at him...

His thin lips curled slightly.

"Are you cold?" Li Yanan touched her exposed arm, feeling the chill from the wind.

Lin Zhenxin shook her head, though she was indeed a bit cold.

Li Yanan reached out to pull her two slender arms, examining them closely.

They’d been out frolicking all afternoon, and she hadn’t put on any sunscreen, getting a bit tanned in spots.

Though it wasn’t a uniform tan, Li Yanan had a distinct tan line on his wrist from where he had removed his watch.

"Let’s go inside." Li Yanan stood up, seeing Lin Zhenxin still sitting there, reaching out his hand to her.

"I’m tired, carry me." Lin Zhenxin extended her arms to him, a shy expression on her face as she looked at him.

A thought crossed his mind, and Li Yanan had already bent down to pick her up horizontally!

Lin Zhenxin instinctively gasped, and by the time she came to her senses, Li Yanan had already walked halfway to the house!

"My clothes are still wet..."

The beach dress soaked in water continued to drip relentlessly!

Entering like this and wetting the carpet and other places wouldn’t be good.

"Then take it off!" Before Lin Zhenxin could react, Li Yanan had already slipped off her beach dress and tossed it onto the balcony.

Lin Zhenxin couldn’t have imagined he would be so bold, hastily pressing her body close to him to cover herself.

"I... I’m tired!" Lin Zhenxin, seeing his intense gaze, hurriedly spoke.

"You’ve already slept."

Li Yanan pushed open the door and entered the room, a rush of air conditioning chilled Lin Zhenxin, and she shivered instinctively.

In the next second, he tossed her onto the bed.

"Are you cold?" Li Yanan propped his elbow on the bed, leaning over to look at her.

"Not... not cold!" Lin Zhenxin dared not admit being cold, her headache was already unbearable.

"Little liar, you were clearly shivering from the cold, but don’t worry..."

"Don’t worry... about what?"

The air conditioning made her genuinely cold.

"Very soon, you’ll feel warm..."

In the presidential suite of the J City hotel.

"Nuoxin, even if I give you his number, he won’t answer."

He Bainian leaned on one hand against his forehead, veins faintly throbbing, as if holding back something.

"Are you going to listen to your big brother or not?"

He didn’t know what the person on the other end of the call said, but a rare expression of fatigue appeared on his face.

"No way!" He rejected bluntly.

A huge crashing noise came faintly from the other end of the line.

Next, there were sounds of a maid screaming.

He Bainian slapped the table suddenly and stood up.

"Nuoxin! He Nuoxin!"

He conceded, he would concede, wasn’t that enough! freewebnøvel.coɱ

At three in the morning, as the night deepened.

Lin Zhenxin slept soundly, while Li Yanan only propped his head up with his elbow, quietly watching her.

At this moment, the two of them were as naked as newborns.
