Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 273: Regardless, how many lifetimes

Gao Lan feels guilty for making fun of him, "I was lying. I will miss you." she answers assuringly, before she whispers, "I am sorry..." apologetically.

Anyway, if it was Wei Jiayi joking about having another wife, she might have cursed him to impotence,  for wanting to sleep with another woman. 'Ah! I already did that!' Gao Lan Mei remembers, making her feel much better.

Wei Jiayi continues to close his eyes as he grits his teeth, fighting for control. Hearing her apology does help him a little, but it is still not enough.

The dragon in him cannot accept that his mate wants to replace him. He can feel the alarm and urgency to do something about this and make sure Gao Lan Mei cannot even consider it ever again in the future.

His savage side is trying to surface badly, to show ownership, and if that happens, Gao Lan Mei will be marked for life, whether she likes it or not.

But the only one who will suffer is him if she is against it. The bite will turn into cuts of ice or burns from her tiny fireball that he can bet that will get stronger in the future. And he does not plan to be her target practice again. There is no way to retaliate if that nightmare ever happens.

Wei Jiayi continues to think about the cons if he fails to control his savage side, which somehow helps more. The beast also does not want Gao Lan Mei to hate it.

"You are my only husband." She whispered, her face burning red with embarrassment.

Wei Jiayi eyes open and he stares at Gao Lan Mei with disbelief. Suddenly he bursts out laughing just looking at her blushing face and hearing the fast beating of her heart.

Probably this is his own little revenge for her joking about something that they both do not want to hear.

"Wei Jiayi!" She shouts with annoyance, "Stop laughing! Do you want me to kick you? Huh?" Gao Lan Mei threatens as she looks at him challengingly.

Coughing lightly before clearing his throat, "Sorry. I am just happy to hear that." Wei Jiayi murmurs, hoping that Gao Lan Mei really feels the same way.

He wants to ask if those words that she said were only to help his dragon side to calm down, or she really meant it. She does mean it, right?

"Good. Cause I do not want you to get another wife too. I made sure of it," says Gao Lan Mei, then smirks as she looks at him evilly. She can just imagine him being useless if he tries to do something fishy with another stalker of his.

With wrinkled brows, "Huh? Made sure of it?" Wei Jiayi asks, looking at her skeptically, "Mei Mei what did you do?"

Instead of answering Gao Lan Mei scowls at him, "Why are you asking? Are you planning to take another wife? Huh?!" She asks indignantly, as her hand that is still being held down, tries to reach him, wanting to claw his skin out. 

Wei Jiayi just smiles helplessly after shaking his head because of her miserable attempt to fight back.  It only makes Gao Lan Mei more livid, "If you ev-" whatever she wants to say is immediately cut off by his lips, which taste her heatedly, dominantly, until her chest burns, craving for air.

He gently releases her lips, not moving far from her, "I already told you, I won't have another wife. Even if they broke my wings or cut off my head. I swear! Regardless, how many lifetimes, that will not change!" Wei Jiayi claims, vowing with all conviction.

"I will make sure that you won't ever forget that, even if we are not married officially yet..." Wei Jiayi adds much more seriously.
