Chapter 287: Chapter 277 This is Mine, No One Else Can Touch It
"Wow, now if I don’t put you in your place, you’ll have no idea who runs this house, huh?"
He was, after all, the child’s father, how could he start swinging punches in front of the child? No wonder Li Hongjun was panicking. Shen Yunfang reflected inwardly.
Just as Shen Yunfang was about to back down, Li Hongjun’s large hand came up from behind her.
"What are you doing?" Can’t this person behave for once? The child is still right here.
Yunfang couldn’t help but chuckle as she watched the father and son battle it out.
Li Hongjun, standing behind, glared at his wife and child in his arms, his teeth clenched so tight they were practically crunching. But as much as he was frustrated, he couldn’t bear to lay a hand on either, and in the end, could only poke his son’s heaving little face with a finger.
Pangpang, the little guy, couldn’t bear the disturbance, grunted a few times, and managed to scare away the finger that was bothering him, before peacefully resuming his feeding. Sigh, adults can be so boring.
The young couple looked at each other and couldn’t help but burst into giggles.
"Wife, you can’t just think about Pangpang, you have to consider your man too." Li Hongjun didn’t dare to compete with his own son for sustenance, so he could only snuggle up behind his wife, rubbing against her back.
Shen Yunfang’s face turned red, and she spat, "Your son is just over a month old, what are you thinking?" Even if she did feel sorry for this man, there was nothing she could do at this time. They would have to wait at least three months.
Li Hongjun’s eyes lit up when his wife responded to him, and he came over with a cheeky grin, "I wasn’t really thinking of much, wife. Since the last time I returned to the base, we haven’t had ’that’ for a year. You’ve got to help your man out." He said, pulling his wife’s hand over and placing it on his lower abdomen for her to feel his desire.
For a taste of that pleasure, Li Hongjun was ready to let go of his inhibitions. Any expressionlessness or cold-heartedness could be discarded when it came to his wife. All that was for outsiders. With his own wife, he had to be as warm as the spring breeze.
Although Shen Yunfang was still a bit embarrassed, she was after all a woman who had given birth to a child, which unconsciously expanded her boundaries. So the little hand that was being held gave a little squeeze without thinking.
"Hiss... this is really going to be the death of me."
"Hey, it’s 12:10 now; by the time you’ve soothed your son, it’ll be 12:30. You have to go to work at one. Are you sure you can get out of bed in 20 minutes?" Shen Yunfang analyzed for him calmly. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help him; she too wished to be a virtuous woman who could take good care of both the child and her husband. But his timing didn’t allow for it. What if he ended up unable to start or stop? That would truly be torture for him.
Li Hongjun glanced at the time, then abruptly turned around, turning his back to his wife and child, yanked the blanket over himself, and covered up.
After a while, Shen Yunfang heard no movement behind her. Turning back, she saw her husband had actually smothered himself under the blanket in a huff, really, just... How had he become so childish? Before they were married, he wasn’t like this at all, oh how manly he was then, composed and reticent, exuding an air of having things under control. What had happened to him now?
When Li Hongjun pulled down the blanket, he saw his wife with her big eyes shining, looking at him. Thinking of his own actions, his face unconsciously reddened, then, in a burst of annoyed shame, he yelled, "What are you looking at? Can’t you let me sleep in peace?"
Shen Yunfang tried to contain her laughter, fearing she might hurt the pride of her paper tiger husband. But seeing his pretentious airs, she couldn’t help but let out a chuckle, "Sorry, my bad, couldn’t help it. Continue, please, continue."
Li Hongjun’s face turned beet red, his pride utterly squashed. He had to reassert his role as the head of the household, and so he pounced on his wife, pinning her down, of course making sure of his position because his son was still nursing in front of him. He held his wife down and showered her neck and shoulders with kisses.
Shen Yunfang was tickled to the point of incessant giggling. The disturbance was too much for little Pangpang at her breast, who then spit out the nipple and wailed loudly. Were they really going to continue this? Poor baby just wanted to have a peaceful meal, was that so hard? Couldn’t they wait until he was asleep? Did they not know that if a child doesn’t eat or sleep well, it affects his growth?
Li Hongjun, hearing the mix of his wife’s laughter and his son’s crying, felt a bewildering mix of sadness and anger. He buried his face in the blanket, took a deep breath, thumped the bedstead, then sprung up from the bed and ran out the door without looking back, shouting, "Just you wait, just you wait, see how I deal with you both when I get back this evening." He needed to cool down with some cold water, or it would be too embarrassing to head out.
Shen Yunfang, watching his hasty retreat, could no longer hold it in, cradling her crying son, she burst into roaring laughter, "My goodness, could he be any more childish?"
She laughed for quite some time before finally managing to control herself, then she picked up her son who was by now gasping from crying too hard and gently patted him. After a while, thinking again about Li Hongjun’s antics, she couldn’t help but laugh again.
There was a clang in the hall. Li Hongjun, in a fit of embarrassed anger, slammed his tea cup onto the stove, "What’s so funny? Just watch the child." He still had time before work and had to stay at home, enduring the teasing from his wife and child.
Shen Yunfang, in the bedroom, put away her smile and straightened her gaze. She yelled towards the outside, "What are you hiding out there for? Hurry up and bring your son’s potty." 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
Upon hearing his wife’s command, Li Hongjun quickly pushed the door open and moved the potty from under the table onto the bed. Then he took a seat behind his wife, helping hold the child, muttering, "Can’t you leave me some dignity in front of our son?"
Shen Yunfang shot him a glance, "Dignity isn’t something given to you by others; you earn it yourself, you know. And another thing, if you dare to shout at me again, see how I deal with you."
This time, it was Li Hongjun who couldn’t suppress a snicker, "Oh please, I know all about our household’s tigress. Show me what you’ve got."
Shen Yunfang also burst into laughter, "Just you wait. Once I’ve finished raising our son, I’ll straighten things out with you."
