Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 322 Mine

　　A light ruffling sound broke Liam out of his sleep, his eyes blinking open slowly against the sunlight streaming through his bedroom window. When the noise persisted, he turned his head to see Ying Sheng gathering her clothes from last night off of the floor. He realized that they must’ve fallen asleep together in his bed after everything that happened last night.

His face immediately warmed at the thought. He could hardly believe that they had actually taken that next step with each other, but he was glad for that. He felt closer to her, having actually been physically joined with her. It almost seemed like he had felt her very soul.

”What are you doing?” He mumbled sleepily as he rubbed at his eyes and sat up in his bed, the sheets sliding down his bare chest.

Ying Sheng turned to him with a surprised smile.

”Oh, sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you. I forgot to tell you because I wasn’t sure if I was even going to go or not, but a few girls in my capstone class are meeting up in the library this morning to work on our business plans together. I just figured… maybe it would help motivate me to work,” Ying Sheng murmured with a light shrug.

A proud smile crossed Liam’s face as he nodded, wanting to encourage her to go. He was so happy to see her being more motivated lately, like life had been breathed into her finally. It had been hard seeing her drag herself around, devoid of inspiration.

”That sounds great. I hope you get a lot of work done,” he encouraged her.

Ying Sheng smiled at him gratefully as she bundled her clothes up against her chest.

”Thank you. They’ll probably be shocked to see me show up because I’ve never attended their hangouts before,” Ying Sheng laughed sheepishly.

Liam smiled at her in an understanding manner, knowing where she was coming from. He was just glad that she was kicking herself into gear. The end of her last semester was approaching quickly, and he knew that she had a lot of work left to do. She needed to be as focused as possible.

”I bet they’ll be happy to see you. I’m sure everyone is crunching in that class,” he told her, glad that he was no longer in school. He preferred to get paid for all of the hard work that he did.

”We definitely have a lot of work left to do,” Ying Sheng replied.

Liam nodded his head to the door, suspecting that she was procrastinating a little. He didn’t want her to get sidetracked by him. She was already taking a good step forward by just deciding to go.

”I don’t want to keep you, despite wishing you were still in bed with me,” he chuckled, wishing that they could lay there a little longer together.

”I would definitely stay in bed with you a little longer, but I guess I don’t need to be too late,” she sighed to him as she walked up to the side of his bed.

Liam reached out to gently take her hand, his thumb rubbing over her knuckles in a comforting manner. She had no reason at all to feel torn about that. He wanted her to go out and get work done because he knew that it made her feel happy.

”There’s always tonight,” he pointed out to her. They had all the time in the world, so there was no need to rush. Each moment was an important one, and he didn’t want to miss any. 

”You’re right. I will be sure to spend some time with you tonight… in this bed,” Ying Sheng smirked as she winked at him playfully.

Liam chuckled and shook his head at her playful antics, but his heart automatically raced in response to the thought of another round with her. She had blown his mind last night, and his first time was greater than he could’ve ever imagined. She was bold and sexy, and she had no problem guiding him through. It drove him a little crazy just thinking about it.

”Careful. You’ll make yourself late,” Liam mused, lifting his eyebrows at her. He couldn’t deny his constant desire for her. 

”Oh, are you trying to seduce me,Cutie?” Ying Sheng murmured as she gave him a devious look.

Liam merely shrugged, not trusting his own mouth. With his nervousness, he would say something stupid and ruin the mood. It was easier to let her do the talking, while he did the reacting. 

”Bad boy,” Ying Sheng smirked as she tilted her head at him.

It was ironic for her to say that since she was deemed as a “bad girl” by some people. She had the attitude and the style of one, but she was far from a bad person. It was a mask, one that he easily saw right through. She was sweet and caring, even if some people didn’t see her as that.

”Is that your type?” Liam asked playfully. He knew Han Zhao was the one who broke her heart. They had just become friends when she had gone through that breakup, which had brought them closer because he had comforted her. 

Han Zhao had done her wrong by not treating her well, and Liam had been intent on proving to her that she was lovable and beautiful. He tried to show that to her every day because it was true. She deserved someone who would care for her, not someone who only cared for a warm body. She was far more than that. 

”Absolutely not. You’re my type,” Ying Sheng quipped as she gave his hand a squeeze.

Liam was glad that they were good for each other. They supported each other, motivated each other, and cared for each other. He would never drag her down, and he knew that she wouldn’t do that to him either.

”And you’re mine,” Liam murmured, meaning his words.
