Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 106 Crazy things

　　Ying Sheng sat in class and doodled in her notebook lazily, not paying attention to whatever the professor was saying. Her mind wandered to Han Xi. He had called her multiple times for the past two days, but she refused to answer.

She needed space to think and force her brain to process the fact that she was in love with a guy who would never love her back. Sad but true.

But she asked herself every time if she was really over him. Ying Sheng couldn’t count the number of times she has imagined them together that she was the woman sleeping next to her instead of that bi*ch. She wonders how his tongue will feel dancing on her skin. How sexy he would sound growling out her name in pleasure. She wanted to be the one that would arouse him; make him lose control.

It was disheartening that he meant everything to her, yet she was nothing to him. She was the last person he cared about. Will he ever notice her just for once?

Ying Sheng was put out of her thoughts when the bell ring signaling the end of the class.

”Hey, are you okay?” A brunette girl sitting beside Ying Sheng asked with concern laced in her voice.

Ying Sheng froze and turned to look at the girl. She was Ning Meng, the illegitimate daughter of Ning Qingbei. The director of the school.

Her mother, an ordinary woman, fell in love with Ning Qingbei, a regular customer at her diner, not knowing he was a married man. They had an affair, and a few weeks later, she found out she was pregnant with Ning Meng.

The woman was excited. After all, she was going to have a baby with the love of her life, but Ning Qingbei told her he was already married and that his wife is pregnant so he can’t leave her. He can’t lose the face of their Ning family by divorcing his wife and marry a commoner like her.

Brokenhearted Ning Meng’s mother disappeared with her baby. It was just recently that Ning Meng came to look for Ning Qingbei since her mother had died, and she had no one to look after her.

Unfortunately, even though Ning Qingbei accepted her, Ning Mei is always bullied in the family. Ning Chang, her stepsister, couldn’t swallow the fact that she has another sister pretty than her, so she bullies this poor girl.

How did Ying Sheng know this? She had witnessed Ning Chang bullying Ning Meng at a party once and heard people gossiping about the whole situation. At that time, Ying Sheng thought Ning Meng was too stupid not to fight back, so she left the place bored.

She wouldn’t waste her time helping a coward. If you want to survive in this high society, you need to be a fighter.

Ying Sheng pointed her finger at her chest, “Are you talking to me?”

She asked as she looked around. She realized they were the only people left.

Ning Meng swallowed nervously, ‘Why didn’t I just mind my business?’ She knew about the infamous Miss.Ying

Ning Meng can see how everyone fears her. Also, she has heard rumors about how ruthless she is.

”I…I saw you—I was just���it’s okay. Sorry. Please don’t hurt me. I will mind my business from now onwards!”

Ning Meng said anxiously, playing with her fingers, contemplating whether she should leave or wait for Ying Sheng’s permission to leave.

Ying Sheng’s face scrunched into confusion. ‘I’m I that scary?’

Ying Sheng heaved a sigh, “I’m okay.”

Ning Meng widened her eyes and nodded aggressively, “Oh-okay. Then I will go. Take care!”

Ning Meng said as she picked her bag and dashed out of the room. Ying Sheng looked at her back, and an amusement glint passed through her eyes. She reminds her of a rabbit.

Ying Sheng shook her head and picked her book from the table. Suddenly footsteps echoed in the quiet room. Ying Sheng looked up and saw Han Xi making his way towards her. Her heart thumped in her chest as he turned the chair in front of her to face her.

He sat down and stared directly at her as he propped his chin in his palms. Ying Sheng averted her gaze to hide the emotions in her eyes.

Without saying a word, she took her bag and made her way out of the lecture hall. Han Xi followed her outside.

Ying Sheng ignored him until they reached a quiet place where no one was around.

Ying Sheng stopped and turned around.

”What do you want, Han Xi?” She asked as she crossed her arms across her chest.

”I wanted to see you. I miss you.” He rubbed the back of his neck and grinned.

Ying Sheng’s heart skipped a beat. It took everything she had not to blurt that she missed him too.

”Okay, I hear. You can leave now.” Ying Sheng said nonchalantly.

”I know I’m an asshole, but I will try to not hurt you again. You’re like my fucking sister, and I can’t always hurt you.”

’Sister’ His words sting her heart. She didn’t want him to see her as his little sister. She wanted him to see her as a woman madly in love with him. She wanted him to look at her the same way she looked at that woman. She wanted to see his eyes swarming with desire and love for her!

Ying Sheng turned around and ignored him. The moment she took a step forward, Han Xi gripped her hand, and before she could protest, he cupped the side of her head and pulled her to his chest.

Ying Sheng froze as she listened to his heartbeat. Her mind went blank, and she forgot that she was angry at him. She felt him kiss the top of her head.

Unbeknownst to Ying Sheng, who was enjoying being in her crush’s arms, she didn’t see a man watching her with an intense pain etched on his face. The man felt his heart cracking. With his heart falling on the ground, he left the place before they could see him.

”Ying Sheng, don’t be angry, okay? I’m sorry. You don’t know I haven’t slept well these past few days. The thought of you being mad at me makes me feel restless. I-“

”Why?” Ying Sheng whispered. She felt him stiffened.

Han Xi pulled her away and held her shoulders. He looked into her eyes.

”Even though I might be a jerk to you sometimes. You mean a lot to me, Love.”

Ying Sheng was taken aback by his words. She looked into his eyes to detect if he was lying, but nothing showed that he was.

”Let me take you to your favorite restaurant, okay?” Lost in his gaze, Ying Sheng subconsciously nodded.

Han Xi beamed and moved his hands on her back and guided her to his car.

He opened the door for her, and at that moment, Ying Sheng allowed herself to imagine that she was his girlfriend.

Pathetic right? She knows, but as they say, love makes you foolish. It makes you throw every bit of logic away. It makes you do all sorts of crazy, impossible things with and for the person you love.
