Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

What should she do if her husband’s stamina is too strong?

Li Xiwu did not understand. They had been married for three years, but Pei Jingzhou was still very enthusiastic about the things between husband and wife. He was not calm at all.

Probably because of the influence of the married colleagues around them, those couples who had been married for a year no longer had passion. They resolved their needs calmly once or twice a month.

But she realized that, in fact, that wasn’t the case at all.

Pei Jingzhou would always be a newlywed. Or rather, he was in a passionate state of love.

Just like tonight.

Li Xiwu was extremely sleepy in the first half of the night. After a period of time, Pei Jingzhou was no longer doing it. Unexpectedly, she was no longer sleepy in the second half of the night. Although her body did not have much strength, the cells in her mind were very active.

She turned over and lay on Pei Jingzhou’s chest. She patted his cheek gently. “Don’t sleep anymore.”

Pei Jingzhou:

Li Xiwu saw the sleepiness on Pei Jingzhou’s face and was a little smug. “Wasn’t

Fourth Brother very arrogant just now?”

Pei Jingzhou’s lips curled into a doting smile. In an instant, he turned the tables and pressed her down again. “You can be a little more domineering.”

Li Xiwu said, “Fourth Brother, you’re just trying to be brave.”

Pei Jingzhou narrowed his eyes.

Li Xiwu saw the danger in his eyes and changed her tone. “I was wrong.”

She was decisive and straightforward!

Pei Jingzhou smiled. “Aren’t you recording a show tomorrow? If you don’t sleep now, you won’t be able to get up tomorrow morning.”

“You make it sound like I’ll be up in the morning if I fall asleep now,” she said.

Pei Jingzhou said, “It’s my fault.’

Li Xiwu said, “It’s indeed your fault.”

Pei Jingzhou smiled and moved closer to her. The heat from his body enveloped her entire body. It was as if a man’s body was always hotter than a woman’s, like a heater.

He wrapped his arm around her soft waist. “Go to sleep.”

Li Xiwu removed his hand from her waist and propped her elbows on the pillow. She turned sideways and looked at him like this. “Fourth Brother, you haven’t told me. Did you casually choose my current name?”

Pei Jingzhou said, “No.”

Li Xiwu was curious. “Then how did I get my name now?”

Pei Jingzhou looked at her with narrowed eyes. “You named it yourself.”

Li Xiwu raised her eyebrows. “I named it myself?”

“Yes,” Pei Jingzhou replied.

Li Xiwu thought to herself, Isn’t this throwing her a difficult problem? She didn’t have her previous memories, so how would she know why she gave herself this name?

She didn’t think about nicknames because it was obvious that they weren’t nicknames. Otherwise, she would have been recognized by her acquaintances.

Pei Jingzhou looked at her seriously. “It was when we first met.”

Li Xiwu said, “Huh?”

The Pei family and the Li family each lived in the Tan Hua Manor and the Qiang Yue Garden respectively. Logically speaking, they were two families that had never interacted. Therefore, Li Xiwu was very curious. Why were she and Pei Jingzhou childhood sweethearts?

Actually, the middleman was Uncle Han Pin.

That day, there was a speech at Capital University. The school invited the big shot in the legal world, Han Pin, and the big shot in the diplomatic world, Li Huaisheng. Li Huaisheng only had one daughter, Li Xiwu. From the moment she was born, he brought her everywhere. That time, he also brought her to school.

When the speech began, Li Huaisheng was the first to go up. He handed Li You over to his best friend, Han Pin, to take care of. The two of them had a deep relationship, like biological brothers, so Li Huaisheng was very assured to hand Li You over to Han Pin to take care of.

Therefore, the five-year-old Li Xiwu and the seven-year-old Pei Jingzhou interacted for the first time because of Han Pin.

When she was young, although Li You’s personality was not at the level of socially awesome, she was still lively. After Li Huaisheng went on stage to give a speech, she obediently stayed by Han Pin’s side at first. At a glance, she looked very honest.

When everyone was listening attentively and engrossed, Li You began to become restless.

One moment, she moved, and the next, she slid down from the chair and squatted on the ground. No matter how she looked at it, she was restless. It was to the extent that Pei Jingzhou, who was sitting behind, could not stand it anymore.

He knew that this was the little girl that Mr. Li had handed over to his uncle to take care of, so he called out to him, “Control her!”

Li You looked up at the person who had asked Uncle Han to control her. Their gazes met. The seven-year-old Pei Jingzhou looked like a little adult. He calmly looked away and continued to listen to Mr. Li’s speech.

Han Pin called out to Li You. “Little You, come and sit. Your father will be down soon. ”

Li You obeyed and sat down obediently.

Halfway through Li Huaisheng’s speech, Han Ping was mentioned. In the end, in response to everyone’s high and enthusiastic cheers, Li Huaisheng and Han Ping spoke in the same frame.

Han Pin was naturally overjoyed. After all, he and Li Huaisheng had a lot of ‘CP fans’! Therefore, before Han Pin went up, he casually handed Li You to Pei Jingzhou. “Nephew, help me look after Little You. I’ll be down soon.”

Pei Jingzhou glanced at Li You, who seemed to have ADHD. He hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing. “Got it.”

Han Pin told Li You again and went up happily. Li Huaisheng and Han Pin were in the same frame. The applause was unprecedented.

Han Pin stood beside Li Huaisheng with his big teeth bared. The noble and elegant Li Huaisheng handed the microphone in his hand to Han Pin and reminded him, “Keep your front teeth.”

Han Pin took the microphone from Li Huaisheng and put away his bare front teeth. The host immediately came up and handed another microphone to Li Huaisheng.

Pei Jingzhou was also clapping. His hand gestures slowly stopped. He looked in Li You’s direction and opened his mouth to say something. Before he could speak, Li You had already slipped out.

Li You was small, and everyone’s attention was on the stage. Other than Pei Jingzhou, no one noticed a little girl slip out. However, when she slipped out, she could not find the way. This was Li You’s first time at Capital University, so she was not familiar with this place.

She could only stroll around aimlessly, curious about this place. As she walked, she was grabbed by the back of her collar. She shrunk her neck and turned around to see Pei Jingzhou’s unhappy face.

Pei Jingzhou let go. “Can you be more obedient?”

Li You did not want to bother with Pei Jingzhou. She turned to leave, but Pei Jingzhou grabbed her wrist again and pulled her back. “Don’t run. Uncle Li won’t be able to find you when he comes down.”

Li You struggled. “Let go of me.”

Pei Jingzhou said calmly, “You have to be obedient.”

Li You was not very happy. “Mom said not to talk to people you don’t know.”

The seven-year-old Pei Jingzhou had been educated and already knew how to organize fluent language to explain his identity.

He said solemnly, “My name is Pei Jingzhou. Professor Han is my uncle. He’s giving a speech with Uncle Li now, so he handed you over to me to take care of.

I have to be responsible for you.”

The words “responsible for you” that came out of his mouth at such a young age were very pure.

Because that was a responsibility he knew at the age of seven.

Li You did not listen carefully to what Pei Jingzhou said. In order to go out with Li Huaisheng this morning, she woke up early. Now, she was yawning and listless. She didn’t know the way outside. Since she was going back, she obediently reached out to Pei Jingzhou. “Carry me.”

Pei Jingzhou hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’m sorry, I can’t carry you..”
