Chapter 12: Jiang Li's Dilemma

Wrapped in these muscular and powerful arms, Jiang Li gasped in fright, her face and ears flushed red as she said, "Er... Erniu, what are you doing? I am your sister-in-law, let go quickly!"

"I won't!"

Erniu held Jiang Li tightly in his embrace, greedily savoring her soft, boneless body and the fragrance from her hair.

At that moment, Erniu couldn't hold back any longer. All he wanted was to spill out all the emotions he had been harboring in his heart.

"Sister-in-law, the truth is I like you too, even though I'm married to Yupan, I still want to always be with my sister-in-law."

"That's not possible! Erniu, listen to me! Let go."

Feeling the heat and restlessness of Erniu's body, even noticing his physical reaction, Jiang Li knew if she didn't stop him now, she might not be able to withstand it herself, let alone the vigorous Erniu.

"Promise me, sister-in-law, and I'll let go."

"You!"

Jiang Li's blush deepened, her struggles weakened, and even her breathing turned hot and rapid, "Erniu, if you... if you keep this up, your sister-in-law will never pay attention to you again!"

Hearing this, Erniu suddenly lost his nerve.

After hesitating, Erniu finally relaxed his grip slightly, and Jiang Li, seizing a moment of lucidity, quickly pushed him away.

"Sister-in-law..."

"Erniu, you've disappointed your sister-in-law so much. How are you any different from that Wu Ergou by acting like this?" Jiang Li tried to hide her shame and indignation, her lily-white arms guarding her bosom tightly.

Erniu's face was a picture of shock, suddenly regretting his impulsive actions, "Sister-in-law, but... but I truly like you."

"You're still so young, how could you know what's truly in your heart? I think it's just that you mistook your kindness for liking... Erniu, you should go outside to calm down before coming back!"

Bang!

Jiang Li, with her face flushed, turned her head and abruptly closed the door.

Seeing the door shut firmly before him, Erniu felt a sudden bout of desolation. Did his sister-in-law really not have the slightest bit of affection for him?

Erniu couldn't understand and could only leave in frustration.

But behind the door, Jiang Li leaned against the panel, panting heavily. Her blush intensified, and her body became similarly overheated.

The feeling of discomfort she had been suppressing for so long now erupted completely, spreading throughout her body.

Jiang Li had to admit that, for a moment, she had considered giving in to Erniu.

After all, having been a widow for so long and living under the same roof with the young man Erniu, how could she not have had even the slightest thought about him?

But the last shred of reason told her she couldn't do it, as it would only hurt Erniu and make them the laughingstock of the village.

With an itch she couldn't scratch, Jiang Li could only caress her own fair skin, imagining satisfying Erniu, allowing his touch to roam freely.

"Ha..."

Jiang Li's face was burning hot as she exhaled softly like an orchid.

That long-suppressed discomfort had to be relieved by her own slender, jade-like hands, "Erniu... Erniu..."

Meanwhile.

Erniu felt dejected, having originally thought his sister-in-law actually harbored feelings for him, never expecting it to turn out this way.

Right then, he was full of regret.

If only he had known, he would not have been so impulsive, would not have said those words.

Walking aimlessly, Erniu inadvertently found himself near Chen Yufeng's little store.

The shop was brightly lit inside, with many villagers gathered around tables playing mahjong, and Chen Yufeng sat at the shopfront idly cracking sunflower seeds, looking utterly bored.

From time to time, a few old men would come over to flirt with Chen Yufeng. In the past, Chen Yufeng would have been happy to chat with them and say some shameless things, but not anymore.

"Scram, scram, scram! You think you can touch my tofu, as if I don't have a man, just a bunch of useless trinkets."

Seeing this, those old men were indeed puzzled.

In the village, Chen Yufeng used to be the most open, flirting with anyone with just a glance or a word, always with a touch of coquetry in her tone.

On any typical day, the old men loved to exchange lewd words with Chen Yufeng to scratch an itch, even going as far to touch and feel her when they were in good spirits, but now why had this woman turned into the picture of chastity and virtue?

In fact, Chen Yufeng hadn't turned into some paragon of morality; she was simply overwhelmed by Erniu's capabilities and thus had no interest in these worthless old men anymore.

Now, she was still yearning for the intense experience Erniu gave her before and was dying to run to his side for another round.

The old men, seeing the fun gone, all left in disappointment.

Erniu saw all this and couldn't help but change his opinion of Chen Yufeng a bit as he walked towards her.

"Eh? Er... Erniu?"

Upon seeing Erniu appear, Chen Yufeng's peach blossom eyes immediately shone, almost wanting to pounce on Erniu.

Unfortunately, with her husband Li Dahai coming out from the shop right then, she had to suppress the impulse, and her expression also became restrained.

"Yo! Isn't this the silly Erniu, what are you wandering around for at night, set your sights on someone's young wife, planning to have a secret tryst? Aren't you afraid of your sister-in-law finding out?"

Li Dahai lit a cigarette and teased Erniu with a mocking gaze.

Erniu simply gave a simple-minded smile and scratched his head.

But inside, he was thinking: You don't know squat, I'm just burning with fire here with nowhere to vent, planning on messing with your wife!

"Hey! I almost forgot, heard that you got close to that widow Zhang Yupan from the neighboring Taohua Village? You silly boy are really bold, not afraid of trouble. You, who haven't bedded a woman yet, think you can handle a widow's appetite?"

Although Li Dahai was mocking him, deep down he was filled with jealousy. Everyone in the surrounding villages knew how stunningly beautiful Zhang Yupan was, with a body to die for, a real beauty from heaven.

If he could be with her just once, Li Dahai felt like he could die happy, yet it was this idiot Erniu who got the chance, it was just so unfair!

"Enough already, Li Dahai, why are you meddling in other people's business so much, nosy as can be!"

After scolding him, Chen Yufeng couldn't help but mutter under her breath—who said Erniu hasn't been with a woman? He could take on your wife with both hands, and you still have the nerve to mock him!

Li Dahai closed his mouth resentfully, and Chen Yufeng looked at Erniu again with a maternal face, "Erniu, what brings you here all of a sudden, you must have something important, right?"

"Sister-in-law asked me to come, calling for Sister Yufeng, said she has something to discuss with you," Erniu still maintained his harmless smile.

"Your sister-in-law?" Upon hearing this, Li Dahai's eyes lit up instantly, "What's the matter, why didn't she call me along!"

Li Dahai still remembered Erniu's sister-in-law, a top-quality widow. Unfortunately, he never had the chance to get close to her, always left with a feeling of itchiness each time he saw her.

"Get lost! What's there for you to meddle in matters between two women, you big man, or are you thinking of making an acquaintance?"

"How... How could I dare!"

Li Dahai's face suddenly flushed red.

Chen Yufeng gave Li Dahai a look, then hurriedly followed Erniu, "Come on, let's go Erniu, we really mustn't waste any time."

Seeing his wife so eager to leave, Li Dahai was also baffled, since when had she become so close to the idiot Erniu's sister-in-law, and why did she have to rush home to talk...

But watching Chen Yufeng walk away, her waist swaying seductively, Li Dahai felt a surge of pride.

He saw himself as lucky, having married such a vigorous woman. Many in the village envied him.

This silly Erniu would probably never in his life be able to marry a wife as beautiful as his. He figured the widow Zhang was probably just toying with Erniu, how could she seriously marry an idiot.

Suddenly, Li Dahai felt much better about himself.

"You silly boy, you just have to watch my wife and can't touch her anymore, see how frustrated that makes you feel, heh heh!"
