Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 197 Pizza

　　”Ying Sheng are you sure, you don’t want to move in with me?” Lei Xiao Tong asked softly as she stared at Ying Sheng.

Ying Sheng was discharged from the hospital and Lei Xiao Tong wanted her to stay with her. But Ying Sheng chose to stay with Liam.

She knew the one thing about being depressed is, you become a burden to others or everyone’s attention is on you. 

Ying Sheng knew her aunt was a busy woman and she didn’t want to bother her. 

Seeing the determined look on Ying Sheng’s face, Lei Xiao Tong sighed and gave up.

”Alright, but remember to call me if you need something. Anything you want, just call me or your cousin okay?”

Ying Sheng forced a smile and nodded.

”Thank you, aunt.” Lei Xiao Tong smiled and pressed a kiss on Ying Sheng’s forehead.

She turned to Liam and smiled, “Call me if something happens. Also, thank you Liam for taking care of Ying Sheng.”

Liam blushed slightly and nodded. “Alright.”

Lei Xiao Tong stood up from the chair and looked at Ying Sheng one last time.

”Your father is dealing with some family issues that’s why you didn’t see him. But he told me to tell you, he loves you.” 

Ying Sheng stiffened when she heard Lei Xiao Tong but she said nothing. 

Did her father really loved her?

Then why didn’t he try to stop her when she whispered in his ears that day?

”Ying Sheng did you hear me?” Lei Xiao Tong asked with concern laced in her tone when she saw her zoning out.

Ying Sheng nodded. “Yes, aunt I heard you.”

Lei Xiao Tong stared at Ying Sheng for a moment before nodding in understanding.

”It’s getting late, I will leave you to rest. Take care, Ying Sheng. Your cousin will pick you up on Monday for the check up.”

”Alright.”

Lei Xiao Tong said goodbye to them and left Liam’s house. It’s been two days since Ying Sheng had been discharged from the hospital. And during those days, her aunt, Lei Zhao, Dong Yishan and Yan Mei always come to check on her.

Ying Sheng knew Liam was asked to be on her suicide watch so since she came home, Liam has never left her side. Did she find this suffocating? No, the more time she spent with Liam. The more attached she becomes. Being attached to something was extremely scary but—

”Ying Sheng!” Liam’s voice brought Ying Sheng back to reality. She scrunched her face when she saw the worried look on his face.

”What?” Ying Sheng asked.

”For a moment I thought I lost you there.” Liam said as he ran his fingers through his hair.

”What are you thinking about?” Liam asked as he strolled towards her.

”When we would eat the pizza.” Ying Sheng said as she gazed at Liam. 

Liam knew she was lying but he didn’t push her or force her to tell her what she was really thinking about.

”I’m going to bring it, wait for me.” 

Liam said as he walked towards the kitchen.

A few minutes later, a loud buzzer sounded from the kitchen. Soon Liam came back holding a large rectangular pizza that sent a dizzy aroma through the room.

Ying Sheng’s stomach rumbled when she saw the pizza. Liam’s mother had prepared for them. She had sent someone to deliver it to me just a few minutes ago.

”Here it is.” Liam chanted as he placed the pizza on the dinning table. Ying Sheng was already waiting for him there.

”Be careful it’s hot.” Liam said.

Ying Sheng looked up at him and nodded.  For the next half hour, Ying Sheng ate the most delicious pizza in her twenty years of existence.

Ying Sheng found out, she couldn’t stop eating even when she had reached her limit. By the time they had taken the last bite of the pizza, Ying Sheng’s stomach was protesting.

When Liam had suggested, they watched a rest for a while for the food to digest.  She agreed.

 Liam plopped down on the floor in front of the glowing fire and stretched out, leaning his back comfortably against the couch.

Without saying anything, Ying Sheng laid on the floor and rested her head on Liam’s lap.

Ying Sheng grinned at his surprised look, before closing her eyes and letting out a deep breath.

”Don’t act like I’m murdering someone Cutie, I’m just resting on your lap.”

Ying Sheng said sarcastically with her eyes still closed.

Liam blushed at her words. “Hmm….”

A soft smile formed on Liam’s lips as he gently stroked Ying Sheng’s forehead.

His fingers run through her now black chin-length hair. Liam was quite surprised when she came back with Dong Yishan with a short black hairstyle. He was so used to her red hair that he hardly recognized the woman in front of him.

”Have you forgotten me already, Cutie?” She had asked him with a mischievous smile.

Liam just stared at her. At that moment he wanted to run his fingers through her hair and plant a kiss on her forehead but he knew he couldn’t. 

She looked so beautiful with her new hair that he couldn’t bear to look away. Even though her skin was pale and her wrists were wrapped with bandages. Her beauty wasn’t destroyed.

Liam didn’t know if he liked the fierce red haired who always teased him or this new quiet and closed off Ying Sheng. Ever since she came back from the hospital, she has become more quiet than usual and always seems to be in a deep thought.

Her expression was always unfathomable making it difficult for Liam to know what was going on in her head.

Ying Sheng let out a deep breath as if finally taken a break, a break from life.

The gentle warmth from the fire, and the stated feeling from within allowed Ying Sheng to relax more than usual.

With her eyes closed, Ying Sheng smiled and Liam’s gaze stopped on her lips. He really wanted to kiss her right now.
