Ye Shengge looked at the man’s dark eyes and said, “Your punishment is to never abandon me in this lifetime, okay?”
Ji Shiting’s pupils contracted.
He took a deep breath and said, “This isn’t punishment. Why do you think I’ll let you go to another gigolo?”
Ye Shengge blinked and suddenly felt her eyes tearing up.
“Ji Shiting, why are you so good to me?” She asked.
“I’m good to you?” He curled his lips. “I can only say that you’re too easily satisfied.”
Ye Shengge was rendered speechless.
“Then…. would you have treated Ling Yutong better if you married her?” She couldn’t help asking.
“No.” The man stroked her chin and said calmly. “I wouldn’t have married her.”
Ye Shengge was dazed. “I mean, if you hadn’t separated because of the misunderstanding…”
“That won’t happen either.” He said firmly. “Although I was engaged to her, it was just an engagement. To me, marriage with her was just a plan on the agenda, but I don’t have any expectations nor imagined it happening. So, it was more likely that I’ll drag it out.”
Ye Shengge’s heart pounded, and she stammered, “Then… Did you look forward to marrying me?”
The man didn’t seem surprised by her question. He looked at her and nodded. “Yes.”
Ye Shengge felt a rush of warmth, but soon, she understood something from the man’s smiling eyes.
“Because… Because I lived well?” She sounded dry.
The man chuckled again and kissed her lips. “More just that.”
“Then… What else was there?” She didn’t know why, but she was obsessed with that question.
“Ye Shengge.” The man called her name. “I’ve never planned to let you go since the day we got married. No matter what happens.”
Ye Shengge felt as if something had hit her heart, and her eyes were burning.
“You… You didn’t want to marry me back then,” she stammered.
“But since I’ve married you, you’re mine.” The man stared at her and said lazily. “Haven’t you realized that?”
Ye Shengge puffed her cheeks… She had already felt how possessive he was.
But was it just possessiveness?
“Stop overthinking.” He put his hand into her hair and chuckled. “Your menstrual syndrome is interesting.”
Ye Shengge buried her face in his chest and grunted.
Ji Shiting smiled again. Tonight, she was like a woman in love, asking him for promises.
He suddenly realized that he might have occupied a very important position in her heart, but that woman didn’t want to admit it.
He then kissed her eyes and said, “Are you still angry?”
“I’m not mad anymore.” She looked up, and all her dejection was gone. “I won’t leave you either.”
She thought to herself that she didn’t care about the consequences of removing the birthmark as long as it didn’t hurt him.
She wanted to be with that man and give birth to his child.
