Chapter 824: Chapter 865: Almost Boarded the Wrong TrainXu Shanshan was like this, but she didnât know that at this moment, Li Yifei was also somewhat dazed. These past days, he constantly thought about Xu Yingying, and even though he had recovered a lot in the past few days and could face the incident involving Xu Yingying normally, Xu Yingying still completely filled his heart. Now holding Xu Shanshan, he truly felt as if he were holding Xu Yingying.
Rolling over, Li Yifei pressed Xu Shanshan beneath him, gazing passionately into her eyes, and gently called out, "Wife, youâve finally woken up."
Xu Shanshan was slightly stunned and also felt that Li Yifei was acting unusually, but at such a moment, she didnât want to shatter the atmosphere. Moreover, to reveal that she was Xu Shanshan at this time would be a hurt to Li Yifei, so she raised her hand to gently stroke Li Yifeiâs cheek, softly saying, "Iâm awake, husband. These days have been so hard on you."
"Wife!" Li Yifei exclaimed excitedly, and with a dip of his head, he kissed Xu Shanshanâs lips.
Xu Shanshan immediately responded passionately to Li Yifei. Their lips locked tightly together, tongues interweaving in each otherâs mouths - now in Xu Shanshanâs, now in Li Yifeiâs - both of them eagerly plundering the moisture from one anotherâs mouths.
Xu Shanshan had been with Li Yifei for quite a while, and they had kissed many times, but she had never been kissed by Li Yifei with such madness. Normally, although he seemed very affectionate, compared to now, Xu Shanshan realized that Li Yifei was never truly invested before; only now did she truly understand the taste of a kiss pushed to the extreme.
Xu Shanshan knew it wasnât that Li Yifei didnât like her, the main thing was that when Li Yifei was with her, he would always worry about being caught, inevitably becoming distracted, thus unable to invest himself as he did now.
Such passionate kissing completely intoxicated Xu Shanshan, who forgot where she was, knowing only to meet Li Yifeiâs passion as best as she could, to feel comfortable.
Who knew when their clothes had all been stripped off, and while Xu Shanshan was still immersed in that soul-destroying pleasure, she suddenly pushed Li Yifei away, crying out in panic, "Brother-in-law, this isnât right."
As it turned out, Li Yifei, in his excitement, had mistaken Xu Shanshan for Xu Yingying and almost entered Xu Shanshan. Thankfully, Xu Shanshan came to her senses at the last moment and hurriedly pushed Li Yifei away, averting a major mistake.
Li Yifei was stunned for a moment, suddenly realizing what he had just done, and his forehead broke out in sweat as he anxiously asked, "It didnât go in, did it?"
"Just barely," Xu Shanshan was also scared out of her wits. She sat up to check herself and saw no blood, then she gave Li Yifei a reproachful look, scolding, "You dirty brother-in-law, how could you be so impulsive."
Li Yifei also breathed a sigh of relief, grumpily saying, "Just now, I thought you were your sister."
"You big bad egg... Ah no, this is trouble." Xu Shanshan suddenly let out a low cry, and Li Yifeiâs face also turned pale, because they had already heard the sound of a door opening next door, along with the rustling of footsteps.
When Xu Shanshan pushed Li Yifei away just now, she had yelled quite loudly in her panic and urgency, not realizing at the time. But if such noises came from the next room, it meant that Xu Shanshanâs parents had heard everything.
"Clang clang..." There came a knocking at the door, and Xu Shanshanâs mother anxiously called out, "Yingying, Yifei, whatâs wrong?"
Xu Shanshan quickly replied, "Nothingâs wrong, nothingâs wrong. I was just having a nightmare and talking in my sleep."
"Really nothingâs wrong?" Xu Shanshanâs mother asked incredulously.
"Itâs really nothing! How could we be fighting, right? And even if we did fight, we couldnât do it at home, could we? That would just worry youâgo back to sleep."
"This child, seriously, to talk in her sleep so scarily, even saying âbrother-in-lawâ..."
Listening as Xu Shanshanâs mother muttered and walked away, both Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, nearly having made a huge blunder, and nearly exposed by their parents.
The two lay down again, and really werenât in the mood anymore; they still hadnât recovered from the shock of earlier.
"Brother-in-law, I suddenly have an idea." After lying down for a while and as Li Yifei was on the verge of falling asleep, Xu Shanshan suddenly said something a bit excited.
"What idea?" Li Yifei asked groggily.
"This idea might help my sister, it might wake her up."
Hearing this, Li Yifei immediately perked up, urgently asking, "What method? What can wake your sister up?"
Xu Shanshan hurriedly said, "Keep it down, donât let my parents hear. Besides, it just occurred to me suddenlyâIâm not sure if it will really work."
"What in the world is it? Are you trying to drive your brother-in-law mad?" Li Yifei pressed her shoulders, his face fraught with anxiety.
Xu Shanshan chuckled lightly, then blinked and said, "My sister and I have a spiritual connection, donât we? Even in her sleep, sheâd feel it, just like when you get intimate with her. Even if Iâm asleep, I can still sense it. So, I think that although my sister is in a coma now, she might also be able to sense things. Using this special flavor to stimulate her, maybe sheâll be unable to resist waking up?"
"I really might, weâll try it when we get back."
Xu Shanshan nodded, "But you also have to be prepared, brother-in-law. If it doesnât work, you canât be sad."
"I wonât be. Iâm not that fragile, but weâve got to try everything we can, right? I must admit, I am quite eager."
The next morning, when Xu Shanshan and Li Yifei came out, Xu Shanshanâs mother sized them up and down before Xu Shanshan quickly said, "Mom, I really just had a nightmare, nothing happened between us."
"Thatâs good, thatâs good," her mother nodded repeatedly, but her eyes betrayed a hint of disbelief.
After breakfast, Li Yifei sat down with Xu Zhenguo for tea. Xu Zhenguo, all smiles, said, "Your mother is always so jumpy. A while back when we couldnât reach you on the phone, she kept saying there must be trouble in your marriage with Yingying. If I hadnât persuaded her, she would have rushed over to see for herself."
Li Yifei broke out in a cold sweat internally. If this old couple had rushed over, everything would have been exposed. He hurriedly replied, "Thatâs my fault. Next time something comes up, Iâll make sure to tell you in advance, so you donât have to worry."
"Of course, that would be best. Although youâre our son-in-law, youâre just like a son to us in our hearts. Weâve never treated you as an outsider."
"I know, my own parents passed away early, so Iâve always seen you as my real parents."
"Hehe, thatâs the way it should be. Oh, by the way, thereâs been a big incident recently, have you heard about it?"
"What happened?"
"One of our nationâs Golden Eagles made it to Japan and really did a number on the Yamaguchi Group, even killing their leader."
"You know about this too?" Li Yifeiâs eyes widened.
Xu Zhenguo laughed heartily, "Although I retired to a civilian post a long time ago, I have a few comrades still in the service, some with high ranks. We havenât been in touch much over the last few years, but I happened to meet one recently. He got a bit drunk and bragged to me. It was satisfying to hear. I thought, since youâre also capable of special missions, you might know some inside information?"
Li Yifei looked at his father-in-law coolly, sensing he wasnât probing, just indulging in a curiosity, so he replied with a smile, "I do know a bit about it."
"Do you? Then tell me, donât worry, I understand that this is military secrecy. I still have that much awareness and would never tell anyone else."
"I would trust you, an old soldier, right?Actually, the mission wasnât as exaggerated as people are making it out to be. The Golden Eagle had a number of people assisting him in secret. Since the Golden Eagle isnât currently in the military, his taking on this mission means the state faces no pressure. It becomes an individual action."
"Oh, I see, there were outsiders involved. Still, itâs pretty impressive. After all, that was Japan, and the Yamaguchi Group is infamous there. To hit them that hard, even an army might not have managed it."
"Yes, this incident indeed has brought prestige to our military..." Li Yifei went on to invent a narrative about how the Golden Eagle, with the help of comrades, disrupted branches of the Yamaguchi Group in Japan and ultimately killed their original leader.
He was the mastermind behind that mission, so he knew the details intimately. At this moment, he merely added a few comrades to the story, and that sufficed.
Xu Zhenguo listened, his face alight with excitement, clapping in admiration. When Li Yifei finished his tale, Xu Zhenguo slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Thatâs really exhilarating! Over the years, Little Japan has been outrageously arrogant, with their Yasukuni Shrine visits, the Diaoyu Island issue... itâs high time somebody put them in their place. The Golden Eagle should have gone all the way to the Prime Ministerâs residence and killed the Prime Minister."
Li Yifei sweated a bit at the thought, "That wouldnât work. Killing the leader of the Yamaguchi Group can be passed off as a personal feud, allowing the state to resolve things smoothly, but directly killing the Prime Minister would create international conflict, easily leading to war. With our countryâs current strength, a small-scale war might be manageable, but a larger conflict, whether winnable or not, would greatly affect the livelihood of the people and set back economic development. So the state would never allow such an action."
As a younger man full of spirit in the military, especially when his abilities were increasing, Li Yifei had held thoughts similar to Xu Zhenguoâs. But over time, he came to understand the complex interplay between nations was by no means simple. Only extremist organizations would resort to such drastic measures.
Xu Zhenguo chuckled, "I was just speaking my mind. It feels great just to think about it. If I were twenty years younger, Iâd have joined such an operation myselfâthatâs really living the life of a soldier."
The two of them were really hitting it off, and Xu Shanshan and her mother didnât come to disturb them, instead taking Little Yifei down the stairs for a walk. Returning with a granddaughter, the grandmother naturally wanted to buy her granddaughter some nice things.
Because he was anticipating trying the method heâd discussed with Xu Shanshan, and also because there were many other matters to attend to, Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan left after lunch. However, Little Yifei stayed behind. Kindergarten was about to break for the holidays, and Xu Shanshanâs parents were so fond of their granddaughter, Li Yifei couldnât refuse them.
Sitting on the plane, Li Yifei was full of hope, wondering whether Xu Yingying would wake up this time.
