Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 211 - I Love You, Lili



"Shhh… You always forget important things which I tell you. That day you told me that you would defeat me and I replied – 'that will never happen unless I fall for you.'"

Ying Lili's eyes slightly grew big. "I don't like to lose to anyone but I want to lose repeatedly from the woman whom I love the most." Ying Lili's heart was relaxed a moment ago, but after hearing those words of Sheng Li, it again raced.

Ying Lili felt Sheng Li's hand on her right hand, and a moment later, the sword was no more in her hand. It had fallen on the ground along with Sheng Li's sword, making a loud voice as they hit the ground.

"I used to think that there is no one born who has the guts to stand against me but you proved me wrong. All these years, I have made only enemies. I got only curses for destroying lives. I was called heartless and it never bothered me until I met you." He moved back his finger from her lips and put his hand down.

Ying Lili saw the deep emotions in Sheng Li's eyes for her. She had also cursed him earlier for being ruthless and heartless. Tears formed in her eyes thinking how badly her words had affected Sheng Li.

Sheng Li noticed Ying Lili's watery eyes. He did not know the reason for that. He decided to confess first. Moving his left sleeve up, he showed the butterfly to Ying Lili. "You asked me to find the meaning of this. I will be truthful. I am not good with the arts. I don't understand the pictures, the deep hidden meanings in them so I asked my Fourth Brother. Looks like a dumb head like me has to learn art too!" Sheng Li made a little joke to cheer up the mood of Ying Lili who was ardently peering at him.

"'An undying love between us' - you want a love which will always be young." He pulled his sleeve down and again peered into her eyes. His right hand rested on her left cheek.

"I wanted the confession to be beautiful so that it will be memorable to us. But I do not know what exactly you would like. That's why I decided to have this friendly match where I wanted to be defeated by you."

"But you intentionally lost to me. I wanted to defeat you by my strength," Ying Lili complained.

"Isn't this your strength?" Sheng Li questioned and immediately replied, "You defeated the invincible Crown Prince with your love. That's your biggest strength, Lili." Sheng Li pronounced and continued, "I was touched by your words when you told me that you want to love me. Despite my nature, you stood beside me and understood me. It was strange when I saw you crying for the wounds I got. You saved my life twice and did not care about your life. Throughout these years, I fought alone and suffered alone. Nobody cared for me the way you do. You won not only my heart but my soul, too," Sheng Li's every word pounded Ying Lili's heart. She wanted to hear those three words from him when she heard him.

"I love you, Lili," Sheng Li finally confessed to her and at that moment a tear rolled down her right cheek.

Ying Lili did not want to waste even a second. She tiptoed and placed her lips on his, bewildering Sheng Li.

Leaning back she said, "You took a lot of time to confess to me. I had thought of doing something special for you but I was confused about your choices. You admitted your feelings uniquely, and I loved it. You are the most beautiful, thoughtful, and compassionate person that I have ever met. I had always wished for a man like you. I wanted to admit my feelings earlier but then I was afraid that you would reject me. In the drunkard state, I ended up making that pattern." Ying Lili explained as she looked down towards Sheng Li's wrist. "I love you too, Sheng Li." She removed the rose from her bun and forwarded it to Sheng Li.

"Right now, I can only give you this. Earlier, I went to the garden to bring a flower for you, but you left me alone in the corridor, so I thought not to give it to you," Ying Lili stated. Sheng Li smiled, thinking how quickly Ying Lili got angry at him. He took the rose from her and put it back in her hair bun. "It looks good here," he voiced. He securely wrapped his arm around Ying Lili's waist, pulling her up.

"I waited for this moment for a long time," Sheng Li's face was dangerously close to Ying Lili. Their hearts beat faster and faster while their faces kept coming closer. The hand which was earlier on her cheek was now on her nape as he closed the distance between them.

Ying Lili closed her eyes while Sheng Li closed his after hers. Their lips met, and it ignited heat in their respective bodies. They had kissed many times, but today it was different. They both were pouring their feelings through that kiss.

Sheng Li angled Ying Lili's face to get a perfect kiss. Moving his lips over Ying Lili's, he gave her enough time to respond, and without any delay, unlike the previous times, she reciprocated his kiss. Sheng Li pulled away and traced her lips with his thumb before capturing them again.

She was melting under those kisses when he bit her lower lip, but quickly licked it thus, vanishing the pain she felt with the bite. This was the second time he did that, but the passion this time was different.

Ying Lili felt Sheng Li's lips to be warm and soft against hers. She parted her lips, giving him easy access. In a second, Sheng Li's tongue slipped inside her mouth and touched her tongue. She felt how he played with her tongue for a few seconds, which electrocuted her mind. Her hands went to his shoulders and gradually locked around his neck.

Slowly, the two parted their lips from each other, gasping for the air. Their eyes were still closed as their foreheads touched against each other; their breaths were hitting against each other's face. Ying Lili's hands moved down. She felt her heart would explode because of the kiss she just had when she felt Sheng Li's fingers grazing on her cheek.

She opened her eyes and found Sheng Li's intense gaze on her. She could see the anticipation and love for her in his eyes. "I can't get enough of these lips," Sheng Li whispered as his thumb brushed her lips again. Butterflies danced in her stomach as a smile appeared on her lips.

She hugged him tightly. Her left hand moved down as she grabbed Sheng Li's right hand. She lifted her head again, meeting his gaze. "I am your strength from now on. You told me that love is a weakness but trust me Sheng Li, the love between us will only strengthen deeply with each passing day. I will never let it turn into your weakness," Ying Lili asserted.

"I believe that you are my strength!" Sheng Li remarked.

He securely wrapped his arm around her and carried her up, astonishing Ying Lili. "There is something I want to show you," Sheng Li said and walked inside the residence.
