Chapter 151: Isn't This Love?

Sheng Li came to the chamber after freshening up and sat on the bed. "Sheng Li, come have lunch," Ying Lili said softly, who was sitting around a table.

"You did not eat?" Sheng Li asked.

"No, I was waiting for you. You left me in the middle. How could I eat without you?" Ying Lili asked Sheng Li who chuckled. He stood up from the bed, tied the knot of his upper jacket, and went towards her. He took his seat, facing Ying Lili who handed him the chopstick.

Sheng Li thanked her, and the two started eating. A minute later, Ying Lili asked him where he was.

"The place where the Hand Knife Game is played," Sheng Li replied.

"What?" Ying Lili exclaimed. "Why did you not take me there? This is wrong. You promised me that you will let me stay beside you," Ying Lili complained.

Sheng Li smiled upon hearing the complaint of the Crown Princess. "I was there to check about the place and there were no women except a few dancers," Sheng Li stated.

"Dancers?" Ying Lili murmured and huffed. "Did you also watch their dance?" Ying Lili asked as she picked some of the rice from the chopstick from the bowl.

Sheng Li amusingly looked at her. "Eat your food," Sheng Li said with a smile. Ying Lili found that Sheng Li was smiling too much, which made her suspicious.

"Did he also watch them? He is looking happy. That's why earlier he ignored me! But he promised me that he would only look at me. How could he forget his promise and enjoy it with those dancers?" Ying Lili questioned herself.

"I did not know that Hu Jingguo knew of such a game. I would like to learn that game from him," Sheng Li suddenly said, which brought Ying Lili out of her thoughts.

"Uh… yes, he knows. I also know that game," Ying Lili replied. Sheng Li astonishingly looked at Ying Lili because he had never thought that she would know about that game.

"How? I mean, isn't that game popular among commoners? Among royals, such games are not played, and this was my first time seeing this game," Sheng Li stated.

"Really?" Ying Lili could not believe what she heard a moment ago.

"Yes," Sheng Li accepted again that he did not know the game.

"You are right that it is not played among royals. I told you that I used to play with Hu Jingguo when we were kids and then he taught me this game," Ying Lili replied.

"He taught you this dangerous game? Your friend annoys me. How could he teach such a game to you? You could have lost your fingers," Sheng Li worriedly said and picked the salad to eat.

"I did not start with a knife. If you are a beginner, then you need to use a brush which I did," Ying Lili replied. Sheng Li nodded and told Ying Lili to eat. Once they were done eating, Ying Lili called a servant there to clean the table.

Ying Lili then asked Sheng Li to tell her about everything so he told her whatever he saw there and found out about that group.

"So, you want to go into that group to find out about the leader. Take me with you for this mission," Ying Lili asserted.

"I cannot. That place is dangerous. Moreover, you are a woman, and…" Sheng Li stopped speaking when Ying Lili asked him to complete his words.

"You cannot go there," Sheng Li stated.

"I will handle it myself. I might take Hu Jingguo with me but for that, I need to check his skills if he is strong enough to go with me," Sheng Li asserted.

"He is stronger than you. He even knows that game!" Ying Lili yanked at Sheng Li.

"I can master that game, too. I am talking in a different context. Your friend has never been to wars and defeating swordsmen is not a hard task. The leader is not someone whom I can take lightly. One wrong move and he can lose his life, that's why I have to be cautious," Sheng Li pronounced.

"What do you mean? Is it that dangerous?" Ying Lili asked.

"Yes. He kills mercilessly. I cannot take him without checking if he is good enough, else he can lose his life and then you will get angry at me for taking your friend there," Sheng Li affirmed.

Ying Lili was touched by Sheng Li's words. He was thinking about her first in that situation, too. 'Isn't this love?' She recalled the time when he used to threaten her, but now he was the complete opposite.

But Ying Lili was worried about Sheng Li too. "What about you? What if you get injured?" Ying Lili queried Sheng Li.

"Why would I get injured?" Sheng Li asked and looked into Ying Lili's eyes.

"Why? Aren't you a human?" Ying Lili questioned.

"Worried about me?!" Sheng Li amusingly asked her.

"You are my husband, so I will be worried," Ying Lili replied, and stood up from her seat. She went to the bed while Sheng Li followed her. "Aren't you tired? Come here. I will give you a head massage." Ying Lili sat in the center of the bed.

"Why are you turning sweet towards me? I am alright. I don't need any massage," Sheng Li replied and laid down on the bed.

"Why? I have magic in my hands. You will sleep in seconds after getting the massage from me," Ying Lili praised her massaging skills.

"Have you ever given a head massage to anyone? I am asking because last time I told you to give me a back massage, and you almost broke my back," Sheng Li stated.

"Yes. I used to massage my father's and mother's forehead," Ying Lili replied and smiled brightly, recalling those days.

"Ahh, they would have praised their daughter even if she did not know how to massage," Sheng Li remarked.

"What? You should not doubt my magical hands," Ying Lili stressed her words. "Okay, if you do not believe me, then ask Hu Jingguo," Ying Lili proclaimed.

"What?" Sheng Li's facial expressions changed immediately.
