Chapter 102 - Wolfish Husband (1/2)

Yao Ling shyly admitted it, ”I pinched it, so I could squeeze out tears to gain pity from the matriarch.”

Yao Ying: ”...”

”I never know that crying is that hard! I can't be like the other girls who easily crying...” Yao Ling looked down embarrassedly.

'Well... that makes sense... she's a strong woman, to begin with!' Yao Ying thought to himself. 'And he prefers a woman who is strong and can fight beside him!'

Yao Ying speechlessly looked at his wife, then he flicked her forehead softly. ”Why are you so impulsive? Don't make this as a habit! You have to find another way to cry, just... don't hurt yourself, okay?” After that, he brought her hands to his lips and kissed the mark softly. ”You will break my heart if you hurt yourself like this.”

Yao Ling blushed, making her snowy white cheeks became slightly reddening. Yao Ying's words were slightly cheesy, but she somehow understood. When he said that he drank poison, it tore her heart apart. She sighed to herself and realized that her feeling toward him had become deeper.

Yao Ying sighed when he looked at his blushing wife and felt that every movement of his wife always looked so alluring. Yao Ling pulled her hand back shyly. ”Husband... don't jest!”

”Why should I jest about something like this? I'm really worried about you!”

Yao Ying wanted to laugh. After what he had just said, Yao Ling's face was getting redder and redder. If he teased her one more time, he was afraid that her face would look like a tomato.

”Oh... I almost forget! I have a present for you!” Yao Ying clapped his hands excitedly. He pulled out the presents from his sleeves and ċȧrėssed them softly. These gifts contained his heart toward her and it meant a lot to him. He was slightly nervous because he didn't know whether Yao Ling would like it or not. He hoped she could understand his feeling.

Yao Ying gave her the pendants and told her the meaning that the shopkeeper had explained to him. He looked at her tenderly when he found out that Yao Ling loved it so much and she smiled like a little kid which made Yao Ying happy too. They both got one each and Yao Ling understood Yao Ying's meaning perfectly. He was taking this marriage seriously and he wished for the both of them to have a happy everlasting marriage. What more a woman could ask for? After all, this was just a convenience marriage at first.

”Thank you, Ying,” Yao Ling smiled happily at him.

”Are you thanking me only with your words?” Yao Ying smirked at her.

Yao Ling furrowed her eyebrows, ”What do you want then? I have no present for you... But I will try to find something for you tomorrow!” Yao Ling said excitedly.

'Geez! This woman really has no conscience. He doesn't want a present! How gullible!' Yao Ying thought to himself. He decided to deny her present childishly, ”Don't want!”

”Well... what do you want then?”

Yao Ying wiggled his eyebrows suggestively. ”You know what I want?”

Looking at his gesture, Yao Ling knew what the man wanted her to do. She slightly blushed but shook her head. Yao Ling pretended to be dumb, ”No, I don't know.”

”Well... then it's time for this husband to do something and claim the present myself,” Yao Ying smirked.

”Do what?” Yao Ling asked.

”Taste you for a little bit.” After saying that, the supposed-to-be-sick man jumped on her wife happily.
