209 Not paying enough attention?

Feeling a soft thing on his lips, Xuan Yan opened his eyes and saw a pair of red eyes looking at him. Ciel retracted the kiss and smiled "Good Morning, Master!"

Xuan Yan smiled and stroked her smooth blue hair. Then his eyes wandered around and he sighed seeing that Zi Ji had already left.

Ciel closed her eyes relishing her Master's hand caressing her cheek and hair. Xuan Yan removed the quilt and got down from the bed.

Seeing Xuan Yan's body naked, Ciel's face went beet red and her eyes quivered *puff* she disappeared from there. A chuckle left Xuan Yan's lips seeing her shyness.

He soon put on his pants and strolled to the kitchen sensing ZI Ji and Bi Ji in the kitchen.

"You look like a wife!" he heard Bi Ji's voice who was talking to Zi Ji. He walked behind Zi Ji and hugged her "She is my wife!"

ZI Ji was startled and turned her head "Young Lord, you woke up?" Xuan Yan gave a kiss on her rosy cheek "Yeah!"

Zi Ji's lips curled up in a gentle smile as her eyes softened "Soon the tea will be ready, wait a little Young Lord!"

Xuan Yan nodded as his hand around her waist tightened. His gaze then fell on Bi Ji whose face is flushed crimson. Sensing his gaze she quickly bowed "Sorry Young Lord, y-yesterday..."

Xuan Yan shook his head "Well, no problem." Bi Ji raised her head and sighed heavily in her heart. Seeing the annoyance and displeasure in his eyes yesterday she was terrified.

She was afraid that Xuan Yan would hate her for disturbing them. But she is really glad that he is not so angry about that.

She saw Xuan Yan brushing his cheeks against Zi Ji's cheeks placing his head on her shoulder. Am I a third wheel for them?

*swish* With a crack in space, Gu Yuena appeared in the kitchen with a smile "Yan!" But her smile stiffened and a frown appeared on her face seeing Xuan Yan and Zi Ji.

Xuan Yan turned his head looking at Gu Yuena "Nana!" Zi Ji and Bi Ji were surprised "Lord!"

Gu Yuena's frown deepened and uneasiness filled her heart seeing Xuan Yan hugging Zi Ji so intimately. She never felt like this when she saw him hugging and even kissing Ah Yin. But now...

Is it because she realized this feeling called love or... is she jealous or is she angry because her 'subordinate' got ahead of her?

Her eyes fell on the tea, causing her to clench her palm in frustration. She is not only hugging him but also making tea which should be made by me. Zi Ji!

Zi Ji's body in Xuan Yan's embrace trembled to see Gu Yuena's cold piercing eyes. Confusion and fear swirled in his mind, W-What happened? Why is the Lord glaring at me?

Bi Ji was also shocked to see Gu Yuena standing near her with a deep frown. Is she mad about Zi Ji?

Xuan Yan saw through her emotion and his eyes squinted "Nana!" he called her. Gu Yuena came out of her reverie and glanced at him "Yan, you both are..."

Xuan Yan gave a nod "Hm. She is my woman." Zi Ji let out a deep sigh as Gu Yuena averted her cold eyes from her.

Hearing Xuan Yan's words she got embarrassed and looked down attempting to hide her blushing cheeks, while a subtle yet undeniable smile gradually formed on her lips.

As Gu Yuena took a quick glance at Zi Ji's face, a wave of complex emotions surged within her. However, when she noticed the delighted smile that adorned Zi Ji's lips, a sigh involuntarily escaped her own lips.

She is glad for Zi Ji but at the same time, she is also aggravated. She recalled Ah Yin's words. Ah Yin said he has many women and Ah Yin accepted because he deserves it and no one can monopolize him.

Well, Gu Yuena doesn't fully want to monopolize him. She wants to spend more time with him...She wants him to pay attention to her and hold her and...kiss her.

But now he is holding Zi Ji in front of her eyes which is stirring her heart sending waves of emotions coursing through her being and she...argh! Damn, this author doesn't know how to express my feelings.

A slight smile formed on Gu Yuena's face "I am happy for you, Zi Ji!" Zi Ji sighed in relief to see that Gu Yuena was not angry and nodded her head "Yes, Lord!"

*hiss* The overflowing tea diverted their attention and Zi Ji hastily lowered the flame.

...

*swish* Xuan Yan and Zi Ji appeared in the hall of Liu Erlong's home. All women in the household are on the sofas in the hall.

They all smiled looking at them and Long Yeyue spoke "Again you spend the night in the Lake of Life?"

A chuckle escaped Xuan Yan's lips "Well I wanted to return yesterday night...but something happened." he eyed Zi Ji who was blushing.

Seeing her blush, Xuan Yan kissed her lips which startled everyone in the household. Xiao Wu blinked her eyes in surprise "Sister Zi Ji?"

"Don't tell me..."

"Yesterday night..."

"You both..."

Their doubts are cleared seeing Zi Ji who is acting all shy and embarrassed. They all narrowed their eyes as they got their answers. They had sex!

Yep, they had sex!

Xuan Yan walked to his room "I'll take a little bath!" *thud*

"*chuckle* Welcome to the family, Zi Ji!" Ah Yin said looking at Zi Ji. Ma Xiaotao spoke with a smile "We already expected this..."

Long Yeyue nodded her head in understanding "Umu, it seems like you had sex with our Husband. So tell me, Zi Ji, how did it feel when he poked your w-"

"Sister Yeyue!!!" They all exclaimed at the same time stopping her. Hmph! Long Yeyue pouted her lips and looked away "Why are you guys intercepting me? I just wanted to know if they felt the same as me."

"Do that in private!" Ah Yin sighed and walked toward Xuan Yan's room. Zhu Zhuqing raised her eyebrow "Sister Ah Yin, where are you going...hmmm?"

A grin appeared on Ah Yin's face "Of course to accompany my Husband during his little bath. Hehe!"

Zhu Zhuqing's lips twitched "But you already took a bath. Heck, even your hair is not completely dried."

Ah Yin shrugged "I don't mind taking another bath for my Husband!" *thud* Zhu Zhuqing snorted in her mind. Just wait for three more years...

While all this was happening, Liu Erlong stayed silent looking at Zi Ji with a deep frown. How could she...

...

*pat* Gently, Xuan Yan placed his hand on Ma Xiaotao's head, patting her affectionately who was sitting on his lap hugging him.

His eyes softened as he stroked her red delicate hair. She is the one he least spends his time with.

After coming here, she took care of his duties as Dean. She is quite busy and he didn't even go on dates with her.

But at the beginning of his journey, she was the only one with him. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt for not devoting enough attention to her.

Well, she is a shy type and sometimes does not proactively approach him like Long Yeyue. I should spend more time with her and pay attention to her.

A sigh left his lips and seeing this Ma Xiaotao blinked her eyes "What happened Brother Lord, why are you sighing?"

Xuan Yan giggled "Nothing!" he uttered and kissed her lips and Ma Xiaotao swiftly reciprocated the kiss. As they slowly pulled away from each other, a blush crept up Ma Xiaotao's cheeks, mirroring the vibrant red of her ruby-like eyes.

Seeing her reaction, Xuan Yan softly nibbled her cheek. Long Yeyue smiled upon seeing this, she also felt Xuan Yan paying less attention to Ma Xiaotao.

Well, it's not entirely his fault. Having a harem, it is hard to concentrate on all of them.

On both of his sides, Zi Ji and Xiao Wu are sitting tightly clasping his arm. Liu Erlong stood up from her seat and walked in front of him.

Seeing her, Xuan Yan raised her head "What happened, Long'er?" he asked seeing the deep frown on Liu Erlong's face.

"Yan, do you remember your words? You said that I am your responsibility!" The others also frowned hearing her serious tone.

Xuan Yan nodded his head "Yeah I do remember."

Liu Erlong kept her 'indifferent' serious face "Then why are you not making me happy? In these past months after our relationship started you haven't paid much attention to me."

"At night, you sleep with Ah Yin or Long Yeyue or sleep with everyone. And some nights you are not even in this home going to meet your other lovers."

Huh? Everyone narrowed their eyes hearing her words. Long Yeyue who got irritated spoke "Erlong, you already know our Husband has many women and he can't always stay with you..."

Ah Yin spoke "Even then you fell in love with him and he accepted you. You are not the only woman who he loves..."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded her head "You can't be that selfish!"

Xuan Yan closed his eyes and sighed in his heart. Well, some days he goes out to meet Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong, Hu Liena, his mom, and Gu Yuena. So it's really hard for him to stay here all the night.

Fuck, it's hard to maintain a harem!

[Master, why is this woman talking like this?]

Ma Xiaotao saw him closing his eyes and sighing again. Brother Lord... Her eyes narrowed and she glimpsed at Liu Erlong "Sister Erlong what are you talking?"

Liu Erlong was startled for a moment by hearing Ma Xiaotao's cold voice. Xuan Yan patted her "Sister Tao..."

He then glanced at Liu Erlong "So what do you want me to do?"

H-Huh? T-That is...Liu Erlong suddenly blushed and looked down in embarrassment.

Eh? What the hell is wrong with this woman, why is she suddenly blushing? Xuan Yan's eyes glowed and he saw through her emotions.

[This woman...]

"Pfft...Haha!" Hearing his unexpected laughter the others were even more confused. What the fuck is happening here?

Wait... Ah Yin and Long Yeyue looked at each other and they also understood what was happening. "pfft!" They also laughed seeing Liu Erlong.

Liu Erlong blushed even more hearing their laughter. Long Yeyue said laughing "If you are jealous just say it!"

Ah Yin nodded her head "You are jealous because Zi Ji got ahead of you and had sex with Husband. But you, who is his woman for past months still haven't had sex with him."

-_- That's the reason? The others were dumbfounded hearing this. This woman sure is crazy!

With reddened cheeks, Liu Erlong leaped toward Xuan Yan and Ma Xiaotao slightly moved to the side. Liu Erlong fell into Xuan Yan's arms.

"It is true. I am jealous and angry because Yan still hasn't taken me!"

Ma Xiaotao spoke "I can understand your feelings. But you should have asked that directly. Why did you ask this in a roundabout way hurting Brother Lord's feelings."

Ah Yin gave a nod "You took it too far, Erlong!"

Hearing these, Liu Erlong's eyes trembled and she looked at Xuan Yan "Yan, Yan..I-I didn't mean to hurt. I-I am happy...really happy. I am just disappointed that you didn't lay your hands on me...so I..."

With a chuckle, Xuan Yan hugged her "I know, Erlong. Don't worry!"

Liu Erlong's eyes moistened with tears, she didn't mean to hurt Xuan Yan. She just thought of it as a joke... and said that. But recalling her own words, she realized how horrible it is....

How can a man tolerate when his woman says that she is not happy being with him? No, No, No... I unintentionally hurt him. It's all my fault...My fault. I hurt him...I hurt him.

Tears streamed down her cheeks and she hugged him tightly "I-I am sorry, Yan...I am so sorry... I really didn't mean to..."

Xuan Yan continued patting her "I know...I know Erlong." Soon he will complete his plans and bring all his women together. She doesn't want them to be unhappy!
