Chapter 389 - [Bonus ]

The hurt in his voice was so tangible that she could feel it bear into her heart and a deep ache filled her chest. She hated what she put the brothers through. She knew that each of her husbands had unique and complex issues because of past trauma. Lin Chen didn't have enough confidence in himself.
Yet she still brazenly knocked on his insecurities.
Choking back a sob, she looked down. "I'm sorry, I will never do this again."
And she meant it.
She took hold of their hands in marriage and partnership, so she would hold their hands till the end, both in this life and the next. If it was what she said she would do, she would definitely do it no matter what.
Lin Chen cupped her face and then placed his hand on her forehead. The worry and love in his eyes took her breath away. "You are fine, the fever is still there, but it's alright. You will be fine now that your body isn't burning anymore."
"I love you," said Su Wan. Those words escaped her before she could stop herself. Yes, she loved him, she loved each and every one of them, she didn't know when her heart started to change, but she didn't care to worry about it anymore. All she cared about was to let her wonderful husbands see that she loved them. She didn't want to miss the chance.
Lin Chen paused, then without any warning, he mashed his lips upon hers. Stunned, Su Wan pulled back, "I am still sick, and I haven't washed my mouth. It's stinky."
"You cannot just confess your love to me and expect me to sit back and say 'alright'!" Lin Chen then slammed his lips against her mouth again.
Su Wan didn't stop him; her hands slid against his hard muscled chest to wrap him in a hug. A shiver danced down her spine as he entangled his tongue with hers, his mouth never leaving hers. She thought she would pass out because of oxygen deprivation when something knocked on the back of Lin Chen's head, making the latter groan as he pulled away.
Lin Yan glared at him as he pulled Lin Chen back before pushing Su Wan down on the bed and covering her with a blanket. "One of these days, I will have your ass kicked. You seriously kissed her when she is sick like this? Like really!?" with that, he once again smacked the back of Lin Chen's head.
"What the... Second brother," Whined Lin Chen rubbing the spot where Lin Yan hit him, he didn't know what to say. He just couldn't say that he lost control because Su Wan said 'I love you' to him, could he? He would rather keep that bit of information to himself as long as possible. "I was just too happy to see her awake and kind of lost control."
"Humph, you better go out and bring the porridge that I cooked before I call Uncle-in-law." Threatened Lin Yan as he scooped out a cup of hot water from the bowl he was carrying and helped Su Wan up so that she could drink it.
Lin Chen knew that his second brother wasn't joking, so he walked out of the room with a complaining pout decorating his face. He was wronged! Really wronged! Clearly, Wan Wan seduced him by saying those words, yet he was the one who was beaten up!
Never mind, he got to hear those lovely words from his wife, and he also got a sweet kiss. Who cares if he got hit! Not him!
"You are too lenient with him, Wan Wan," said Lin Yan with an admonishing tone as he helped Su Wan have a drink of water. Though his voice was sharp, his eyes were filled with worry. He even wiped the water that trickled down the corner of her mouth with his sleeves. "You don't have to go along with his methods. If you don't stop him in time, he might never know when to stop. With Ah Chen, you have to be really strict! If you give him an inch, he will take a mile, you need to stop him before he gets over the limit, and you -"
Lin Yan stopped in the middle of his complaining when Su Wan embraced him. Her small arms wrapped around his waist. She was so close that Lin Yan could feel her breath against his chest, "Wan Wan?"
Su Wan closed her eyes as she leaned closer to Lin Yan's chest and heard his heart beating wildly. She nearly lost this man, Lin Chen, and everyone else as well. If she didn't come here, where would she be? Will she still be crying over Wang Tao? Drinking like an abandoned woman in her house?
The more she thought, the more she got scared. She never knew how lucky she was when she transmigrated to this place? The possibility of never knowing her husbands was terrifying. What was even scarier was the idea of losing them. She was lucky, really lucky to be here. She hugged Lin Yan tighter and slowly whispered, "You know, I love you, Ah Yan. I really love you, so please be mine alone, don't ever look for anyone else, alright? I will make you happy. I promise."
Lin Yan tipped her head up while holding her chin with his forefinger and thumb, and what surprised him was that her eyes were as red as a bunny's. Startled, he looked up and down her body, worried that she was hurting. "What's wrong? Where does it hurt? I will call Doctor Gu -"
Su Wan stopped him from leaving, clutching his wrist, as she shook her head and whispered, "That's not the answer to my question. I asked whether or not you will always be mine."
Actually, no one can blame Su Wan for feeling emotional. She was suffering from a fever. Plus, she alone overcame the hurdle of climbing the five hundred steps. She bled and ached, and what she got to know was that Lin Yan originally belonged to someone else. Though she was really proud and confident in front of the old master, she couldn't help but break down a little now that she was hugging Lin Yan. She might be confident, bold, and bitchy outside, but she needed assurance and love when she was with her husbands.. Call her spoiled, but this was how she was, and after suffering so much, she wanted to get the assurance she needed from him.
