Chapter 49: The Truth (Part 3: Xiao Lang)

"Sakura...Wife…"

Syaoran murmured in a low voice as he moved down to plant light kisses on Sakura's smooth, flat stomach.

He kissed and sucked, his unsatisfied hot tongue's swirling motions on the side of her waist made her moan with pleasure.

As she felt him move further down as so his hands, Sakura pushed herself off the light pink carpet and slowly removed herself from Syaoran's grasp.

"Sweetheart, we've been gone for ten minutes already."

Her usual melodious voice now a bit throaty from dryness as she exhausted herself from keeping her voice from getting too loud as she and Syaoran had um-wild love making for the first time on the floor.

She knows her bathroom has good soundproofing, as most all of her favorite rooms in the manor and in her penthouse, but still, she couldn't risk it.

It's like her mind knows that Xiao Bao is just on the other side of the door and it made her anxious, scared, and a little shy.

She didn't want him to know what they're doing!

Oh the horror of such a thing happening!

Returning to her senses, she successfully disentangled her husband's limbs from her body and stood up.

Oh how her back hurts!

Although the carpet was soft for walking, it wasn't made for such deed.

She gingerly stretched her back and waist before leaning down to kiss her husband, whose extraordinary handsome face has been marred with a deep scowl.

Placating the man, she kissed him full on the mouth for a minute before biting his lower lip lightly as she released his lips.

"Now now, don't get mad." she tapped his tall nose with her forefinger. "I promise you another sexy time tonight."

Syaoran's face lit up just like a kid who's offered candy.

"Uh-huh, I promise." she gave him a quick kiss again before heading towards the shower to wash up quickly.

"But right now, you have to listen to what I say. Get up and wash here with me. Don't you dare try anything on me. I am warning you, Li Xiao Lang.

Before entering the shower area, she turned to him and continued.

I am giving you eight minutes to wash and get dressed. Wear the previous clothes you wore before this."

With that, she put on her shower cap and turned on the overhead shower.

The shower area is big enough to let four adults wash at the same time without them bumping with another. Although there is just one big-ass shower head above, there are also side shower heads on all four sides

Meanwhile,

The poor little husband remained in the same position for about thirty seconds after Sakura started washing herself.

Placing his right arm above his eyes,

Syaoran tried to find his motivation and reasoning to get up and do what his wife said instead of rushing over to where she is and continue what they've just ended.

He smirked.

Now that she is his wife, they can finally have sweet and wild lovemaking anywhere.

And he plan to do it just everywhere he dreamt of possible.

"Still not moving?"

He let out a loud groan and jumped off to his feet.

"Get in here in two seconds or no sexy time tonight!"

I guess I can do it everywhere only if the wife agrees, though.

He though as he hurriedly went to the vestibule to wash up.

-XoXoxO-

After a short shower and quickly dressing up, Sakura went over to the bed and checked if Xiao Bao is still sleeping soundly.

She took the special mobile that Syaoran had prepared the night before which has all the six baby monitors connected to it.

Kissing Xiao Bao's forehead one last time before leaving, she turned to face Syaoran.

"Let's go back."

Nodding at her, he took her hand and walked to the door.

Sakura took another glance at the sleeping kid and felt a strange pang of sadness for leaving him.

Feeling her hesitation to leave, even how small it is, Syaoran knew what she's thinking of right now.

He then pulled her in his arms and hugged her from behind.

"Honey, stop it, okay? I was just kidding a while ago. I promise you another round tonight."

She joked at him as she rubbed the top of his head similar to consoling a child.

Silence.

Sakura's elegant eyebrows wrinkled a little.

What's wrong with Syaoran?

Why does he suddenly feel like ...she tried to search for the appropriate word and came up with desolate.

"Xiao Lang? Are you alright? Are you uncomfortable somewhere? Are you sad? Is anything the matter?

Sakura tried to turn her body to face him but is arms around her tightened.

He breathed slowly on her neck as his lips pressed hard on the exposed skin from her slightly off shoulder dress.

Touching, but not kissing, licking, or sucking?

Sakura's eyes narrowed.

Something is definitely wrong with her husband.

She is one hundred percent sure of it!

Surrendering, she stopped moving and just remained as still as a doll in his arms.

Syaoran knew that she's starting to get impatient with him so he gathered all his courage before letting out a low sigh.

His face still pressed on the nook of her neck and shoulder,

He whispered in her left ear.

"Beijing. 2013."

Sakura's body stiffened.

Ha?

Random bursts of memories from that incident went through Sakura's mind.

He knows?

"I know."

Sakura forcefully swallowed her saliva to wet her suddenly dry throat.

Why is he telling me this now?

How did he know?

Jing Xing and Jiao Jiao?

Is that why we suddenly got married?

Why?

Feeling her body going limp in his arms, Syaoran raised his head and placed his chin on top of her left shoulder.

The right side of his face leaned on her left.

His long arms were wrapped tightly around her narrow waist.

Her back attached to his front with no gap in between them at all.

She can distinctly hear and hear his racing heartbeat.

And so can he with hers.

They were very close and yet they cannot see each other's faces.

Syaoran did not want her to feel any more uncomfortable by looking at her without her permission to do so.

After all, this is such a sensitive topic for her.

"Why...are you telling me this now?"

Her voice cracked as she finally got the courage to ask him one of the hundred questions going on in her head right now.

Syaoran rubbed his cheek on hers.

"Because I and your cousins have found out from last night why those people abducted you and what they did to you and why they did it."

The latter part of his sentence came out forcefully as he tried to maintain his composure.

The moment those men started planning what to do with Sakura,

Was also the moment they've sealed their fate with him.

He will kill every single one of them.

Let them die the most painful , torturous death that their souls would even be crushed by him; they couldn't even reincarnate to the next life if that was even true.

Sakura's eyes widened in surprise.

She did not expect that Syaoran and her cousins would find such information!

They have been investigating on this matter for two years now and they've never even had a breakthrough. All their men can find out was simple and common information but none of this great scale!

"How?"

Holding her tighter,

"Because Natsume also found out that the same group might be involved in the incident unbeknownst to me, back in our university days. But my twin, Mochu, and the rest knew of it so we had it confirmed."

Confused, Sakura wiggled in his arms and faced him.

Her heart felt like it had turned into mush the moment she saw the mixed emotions in Syaoran's golden eyes.

Desolation, sorrow, sadness, anger, bitterness, and helplessness.

She kissed him gently on the lips.

She knew all these feelings, he was feeling for her.

Not wanting to dig on more of the details on how and when he learned of her nightmare, Sakura tilted her head and asked a safe enough question to life Syaoran's spirit up.

"Hey, let's talk about what happened to me later, okay? Right now, do you want to talk about what happened to you? Did they do anything to you? Were you involved in an accident that my cousins had a hand in to?"

She frowned at the thought.

What could her stupid cousins do to this mighty human and make him suffer?

She is sooooo going to kick their asses really bad!

Syaoran shook his head and then pressed his forehead on hers.

"Someone got us drunk, most probably even drugged us, so it was everyone's fault to begin with since we all weren't vigilant enough. I'll tell it to you in detail later."

He took a deep breath and slowly released it before continuing.

"What I wanted you to know are these key points."

He peered down on her face, her precious emerald eyes shining bright with such curiosity was staring right back at him.

Holding down her gaze, he continued.

His large palms cupping her small face as he held it closer to him, their noses already touching.

"Our families have been constantly being plotted against from years back and I, as the next Li heir, and you, as the only female to inherit the hidden power of your family, are the main targets."

Sakura gave him a nod to show him that she understood.

"Now, the plan they came up with is actually foolproof and one of the best way to hurt and bring down both families."

Sakura's nose wrinkled.

She do not understand.

She felt his thumb caress her cheeks gently as he continued to explain to her.

"It's like throwing a stone and hitting two birds at the same time." he said as he gazed meaningfully into her eyes.

And just like a lamp that was connected to its energy source,

Sakura felt her brains burst from what she concluded.

Her hands, which were previously hanging limply on her sides suddenly gripped both his wrists.

"A baby?! They had us have a baby without us knowing about it all these years?!"

Syaoran saw the anger and disbelief in her eyes. Those eyes that were just emerald a second ago has turned to darker shade of green as she became livid.

A baby!

They have a baby?!

Her and Syaoran?!

And they did not even know of its existence!

What kind of parents does that tell of us?!

"Yes."

Sakura was in a huge shock when she heard him confirm her thoughts.

Her mouth opened and closed soundlessly, not knowing which of the thousands of thoughts should she speak first.

She quickly sorted through her thoughts and finally settled on one.

"Have you found our baby?"

Hope and excitement eminent in her voice.

They have the time to discuss about the other things including the details of their past but this is the only thing that matters to her right at this moment.

She needed to know where their baby was.

How was she,

is she safe,

is she even still alive?

How has she been these past, what, maybe twenty months?

When did they even fertilized her egg?

Where is she right now?

Wait, is she even a she?!

Panicking, Sakura clutched the front of Syaoran's buttoned shirt.

She shook it as she try to make him answer all the questions in her mind as if she had spoken them out loud.

He held her by the shoulders and locked her in his embrace.

This is it.

I wonder how she'll take it?

"No, I did not."

Sakura's eyes became unfocused and she felt all her strength evaporated from her body as she let Syaoran hold her in place as to not make her fall on her knees.

Oh her poor baby!

Mama will find you soon!

"He found you."

Sakura's head shot back up so fast that the last thing she remembered was seeing Syaoran's worried face while mouthing something she wasn't sure of.

Then everything turned black.
