Chapter 462: Avril’s Plan
The door to the neighboring room opened, and a woman dripping in beauty and poise came walking out.
It was so silent that the crowd’s breathing could be heard, including the crisp yet light footsteps of the woman as she crossed the floor.
Dressed in a blue long dress that lightly swept the ground, her blonde hair cascaded softly and silkily behind her. The faint fragrance she gave off was alluring. Her two eyes shone like lustrous pearls as they fell upon Xia Fei, who was standing several meters away. Though there were plenty of people here in this room, Avril’s eyes were only set on Xia Fei.
Xia Fei was stunned. After witnessing the foxy allure of Qingyan, Xia Fei realized that there were plenty of beautiful women in this universe, but Avril was the only one who could make his heart beat. Even if Xia Fei possessed an inhuman calmness, all he could feel was his racing heartbeat when Avril stood before him. His blood pumped wildly as he felt an urge to just dash right to her and envelop her entirely in his arms.
However, before he could even act on that thought, Avril had already come sprinting toward him as tears streamed down her cheeks, plunging right into his bosom, coming into contact with his sturdy pectorals.
His lips curled into a smile as he hugged the lady tightly.
Avril was small in frame. Xia Fei lowered his head and buried his nose into her blonde hair. That feminine scent filled his nostrils, and he could feel himself getting slightly giddy as if he was in the middle of a dream.
Avril’s body was slightly trembling, her arms going around his waist. As if afraid that Xia Fei would run off like before, she whispered, “Cheeky. Xia Fei’s the worst.” However, the smile plastered across her face was as radiant and beautiful as flowers blooming in spring.
The two shared an intimate embrace, treating everyone around them like air. Whether the look of the people around was that of envy or jealousy or otherwise, this pair of lovers easily ignored them all.
Williams chuckled and strolled out of the room. Thuram gave Xia Fei a thumbs-up and dragged Qin Mang off with him. Charlie blushed in his excitement, offering a fisted salute to congratulate Xia Fei.
The hardy bloke Pang Xing unexpectedly started sobbing like a lady, using his sleeves to cover his eyes as he ran off, while Avril’s grandfather and father both looked on, gratified.
In any case, all the men in that large room showed their well-wishes toward this display, though the ladies in the room were not as magnanimous.
Moon Song crunched on her cucumber, throwing a silly face over at Xia Fei before swaggering off with her head held high, seemingly not caring about the intimacy Xia Fei and Avril was displaying as they ignored everyone else around them.
Nicole Sawyer looked disappointed, and her heart felt even emptier. She took two steps away, seemingly at a loss on what to do before turning back to glance and sigh with bitten lips.
Instead, it was Sarah who appeared to be completely unfazed by this. In the eyes of people from the Wild Star Region, an outstanding man ought to have a wife and plenty of mistresses. It was evident that Xia Fei’s heart was completely devoted to Avril, though that did not mean she did not have a chance to be his mistress.
Soon, the only ones left in the room were Xia Fei and Avril, and it was unknown who had thought of drawing the curtains and dimming the lights, creating a relaxing and tranquil atmosphere in the large room.
Xia Fei picked up Avril by her waist with his two arms around her, causing her to squeal in shock as she held Xia Fei’s neck, so her face was perfectly placed next to his chest.
Settling himself down on a sofa, he positioned Avril on his lap like a precocious kitten.
Taking out a handkerchief, Xia Fei wiped away the tears off Avril’s face. “Look at you. You won’t be pretty if you keep crying like that.”
Avril pouted as she acted spoiled. “Are you not going to want me once I’m no longer pretty?”
Xia Fei chuckled.”Even if you turn ugly like a decrepit old hag, you’ll still be my Avril and that won’t ever change.”
Avril giggled. “How hateful. Who wants to be a stinking old hag? If someone’s turning old, then it’ll be you, doddering old fool.”
“Then, will we still be together when I become a doddering old fool?” Xia Fei slyly asked.
Avril blushed as she lowered her head, replying in a soft voice, “I’ll still want to be together with you.”
Xia Fei cupped his hands to his ears. “I didn’t quite catch that.”
Avril boldly went and hugged Xia Fei as she loudly called, “Even if you turn into a stinky old man, I’ll still want to be with you!”
Xia Fei burst out laughing as he stroked Avril’s hair with one hand. Avril clenched her two fists and beat at Xia Fei’s chest repeatedly. “You’re so bad! All you know is to tease me!”
Xia Fei remained silent as he lowered his head and moved his lips closer to Avril’s. He moved slowly and deliberately, his two eyes peering right into Avril’s pupils.
Avril’s heart was thumping wildly, her fists no longer beating Xia Fei’s chest, seemingly at a loss on how she should react. The porcelain, white cheeks of hers turning red instantly.
She was hesitant and also wanting. Closing her eyes, her thin eyelashes fluttered as she slightly parted her red and luscious lips.
Xia Fei was moving very, very slowly. He gradually lowered his head and matched her lips.
When the two lips were barely a centimeter away from each other, they could each feel the warmth of the other’s breath, and Avril subconsciously lifted her head to meet Xia Fei’s eyes.
A passionate and lingering kiss was shared, and the two slowly let themselves get lost in the intoxicating act.
Avril’s long and tender thighs tightened together as her body temperature rose. She could feel her consciousness getting somewhat hazy as an almost primal impulse dominated her, and then the yearning in her grew stronger.
Suddenly, Avril lightly pushed Xia Fei as she said, puzzled, “Something hard is poking my back.”
Xia Fei somewhat sheepishly whispered, “That’s a weapon.”
“What weapon?”
“A very powerful weapon.”
Avril suddenly recalled something that the maids would often discuss and she momentarily lost her nerves. Xia Fei’s two lips came forward once more and she did not reject them, and the two ardent lovers intertwined.
...
About two hours later, just as dusk had settled, Avril was lying on the sofa, her head resting on Xia Fei’s thighs as if they were pillows while he drank a cup of tea, telling Avril some interesting and fun stories.
Avril was a little disappointed, for what she had been looking forward to did not happen. The intimate moment that they shared before had lingered for some time, but he quickly broke off and told Avril the interesting stories and sights he saw in the insectoid territory.
She told herself not to rush things, and that it was better if her first time was a bit more perfect. Avril began listening intently to his stories, and fortunately Xia Fei had plenty to share. Without either of them realizing it, night was already upon them.
“I was thinking while in the insectoid territory, wondering what sort of sin I committed in my life that I would meet you, my little minx. All the great heroes would always have plenty of wives and mistresses, but ever since I met you, no other women out there have piqued my interest. No matter how pretty they are, there’s only one person in my eyes.” Xia Fei spoke very seriously.
Avril raised her pretty face and said with dissatisfaction, “Hmph! Then go and find them. It’s not as if I’ve tied you down or anything.”
Xia Fei laughed lightly as he pinched Avril’s nose teasingly. “I couldn’t find any because none of the women out there in the universe could compare to you, my Avril. Having you by my side is enough for me, my entire life.”
There was no woman who disliked such flattering words, and Avril was very moved by Xia Fei’s seemingly random yet sincere words.
All of a sudden, the sound of a snore could be heard from under the sofa that they were sitting on, and Xia Fei lifted the cushion only to find Furball curled up in the gap, sleeping soundly.
“Hey! Can’t believe this fellow here has been eavesdropping!”
*Smack!*
Xia Fei swatted the beast away with a slap, giving a bump to Furball.
Furball opened his eyes in a panic, then used his pair of cute and innocent looking eyes to stare at Xia Fei and Avril.
“Oh, you poor thing. Xia Fei, why did you hit him?”
Avril picked up Furball and took the beast into her bosom, her delicate fingers lightly stroking where Xia Fei had struck Furball.
“This pet of mine is very crafty. Avril, don’t get fooled by his seemingly innocent looks.”
Avril pouted. “Don’t you say that. Poor little guy... Does Xia Fei often bully you?”
Furball nodded his head repeatedly, extending his tongue to lick Avril’s fingers. It was ticklish and caused Avril to giggle as the beast licked fervently.
Xia Fei was speechless. Avril actually pitied the Shatterstar beast. This meant that there was practically no beast out there that was not pitiful.
“What’s his name?”
“Furball.”
“Furball? What an adorable name. Furball, are you hungry? Would you like some snacks?”
Furball was of course not at all interested in sweet snacks, but Avril did not relent, stuffing a mouthful of snowpine cake into jos mouth.
Furball’s mouth was soon stuffed full of cake, and he reluctantly swallowed it, frowning greatly as he looked to Xia Fei with pleading eyes.
Xia Fei cackled in his heart as he spoke to Furball through their conscious link. ‘Now, you know how wonderful your master is, yeah? I’m warning you: Don’t ever make Avril unhappy, or else I’ll be sure to let you have some delicious fruits to eat.”
Furball wanted to cry, though no tears came out. He forcefully swallowed that mouthful of cake, his eyes almost turning blue from the disgust.
Unfortunately, Avril did not plan to stop any time soon, and she placed a plate full of pearl pineapple tarts in front of Furball.
“Furball, these tarts are delicious.”
“What’s this? You don’t want to eat?” Avril thrust her hips sideways. “Look at how tiny you are; I’m sure you are usually too picky with your food. There’s no way for you to grow big and strong if you don’t eat more.”
On one hand was Xia Fei’s stern order, on another was Avril’s diligent concern. Furball was utterly helpless, smashing his head onto the sofa as tears brimmed around his eyes, as if saying, ‘Oh, heavens! Just who did I offend to have deserved such torture?”
......
Avril accompanied Xia Fei as the two socialized in the garden. She mentioned her desire to rest because she felt tired some time after, so Xia Fei walked her back to her room.
Everyone naturally knew about the deep relationship Xia Fei and Avril shared, and that after having been apart from each other for so long, it was precisely the time when they needed privacy. As such, nobody blamed the couple, allowing Xia Fei and Avril to return and rest as they liked.
Avril had changed into a pink sheer sleeping gown upon her return. Before, her sleep attire was all pajamas with cute designs, imprinted full of small animals, but today, she wore something far more suggestive for some reason, which really accentuated her figure.
Without too much thought, Avril lay under the covers as Xia Fei placed a hand on her head and stayed by her side to continue chatting, telling her a bedtime story before she turned in.
It was late, and Xia Fei was feeling slightly fatigued, too, so he got up and moved to retire to his room.
Avril sighed. Just like all the nights before, Xia Fei refused to make the first move, always choosing to protect and take care of her.
“Wait,” Avril called.
“What, can’t bear to leave my side?” Xia Fei teased.
Avril got up and took out a bottle of gin from her wine cabinet. That somewhat translucent pajamas of hers did not leave much to the imagination, especially her slender and long white thighs, which any full-blooded male would salivate over.
She poured a glass for Xia Fei and a glass of milk for herself.
Handing the gin to Xia Fei, Avril somewhat nervously and a little guilty said, “I’m not feeling sleepy yet. Can you stay with me for a while longer?”
