Liu Liushi felt crushed by her son's indifference towards them. Tears kept flowing.

Liu Quanfu held her hand, and together they left Liu Ran's room in sorrow.

Liu Qing returned from hanging around town. Liu Quanyan pulled him into his room. The father and son had a talk.

Liu Qing's eyes sparkled as though they had just found a gold mine.

"Son, this house and everything in it will eventually be yours, along with the eight hundred taels of silver Grandmother would definitely keep for you," Liu Quanyan was overjoyed as he spoke of the news. With that money they wouldn't have to work on the farm ever again.

Liu Qing nodded non-stop. He too was ecstatic to hear that.

With that money he could pay off his gambling debts, and he could get a wife!

The Liu family was always shrouded in one of these two kinds of ambience: either they wished time would fast forward to the future, or they wished time would stand still and that tomorrow would never come.

At night, after dinner, Liu Ran went to bed early. He didn't want to watch his family squabble.

On the other side, Liu Duo was preparing to sleep. Her lips curled up into a smile at the thought of Liu Ran joining their family the next day.

"Little Duo, are you so happy because you get to sleep with me?" Ye Liu chuckled as he got into bed without a shirt on.

With the lights out, the room descended into darkness.

Liu Duo rolled her eyes at his narcissistic statement and called him out on it, although he couldn't see it.

He heard it, and the hands holding on to her began to get up to no good, "Alright, I'm the one who's excited to sleep with you."

"That's more like it!" She said proudly.

She could feel the big hand tugging at her waist, attempting to get under her night clothes, so she stopped him, "Liuzi, play nice!"

She knew what he wanted, but she wasn't interested.

Yet, for a man who had experienced the first time and had been celibate since, how could he bear it?

"I miss you. Why don't you give it to me?" He said as he placed his thigh on top of Liu Duo.

Liu Duo, who was sleeping sideways, became trapped in that position.

She tried to move, but she got squashed even tighter, and she ended up being pressed on the bed.

With some effort, she turned around to face him and wanted to push him off, "Stop it, Liuzi, not today..."

She hadn't finished speaking when Ye Liu sealed her mouth with a kiss.

They knew her menstruation cycle very well now, since they always kept an eye on her.

After a while, Ye Liu whispered near her ear in a hoarse voice, "Little Duo, pretty please..."

He did it on purpose and with such an enticing voice, all to ignite the desire within her. She couldn't help it. She was hooked. How could she withstand his advances after having gone through it the first time?

So she gave in. Fueled by her soft femininity, Ye Liu immediately got down to business.

He waited until she was ready before bringing the both of them to the climax of pleasure.

After a night of making love, Liu Duo felt like sleeping in a bit longer, but the main culprit was in high spirits as he lay beside her, admiring her lovely face in adoration and waiting for her to wake up.

This time, Ye Mo could guess why they had chosen to sleep in. The jealousy and indignation he felt had hit a boiling point. On what grounds could Ye Liu get to go a second time?

Why couldn't he have one turn? He pulled a long face as he helped Ye Ling boil water.

"What's up with you, Mo? Didn't you sleep well?" Ye Ling asked him curiously.
