Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife Chapter 105 – Done waiting

Ying Sheng came downstairs from her room and walked towards the couch in the living room. She slumped down and lazily threw her head on the armrest. She stretched her legs and picked the remote from the center table in front of her.

After spending a night at Liam’s place, she had to say that they have become close. It’s nice to have a friend. Every morning, he would send her a message asking how she was and every night telling her to rest early.

Ying Sheng looked forward to his message every day. Anytime she reads the message, a smile will subconsciously formed on her face. She enjoyed teasing her little Cutie.

Fortunately, when he had dropped her off, her parents were not home. They had gone on a business trip. For the past few days, she hasn’t heard from them. Her father had called her last night, but she didn’t pick up. Why-

Her line of thoughts was cut off when her phone rang. She groaned and pulled it from her pockets to see the caller’s identity. Her lips twisted into a sardonic smile when she saw the caller’s ID.

‘Oh, so he has now remembered me.’ Ying Sheng thought as she hung up the call.

But it seems the person was persistent since the phone kept ringing. Out of annoyance, she let out a series of curses before picking up the call.

“What the fu*k do you want?!” Ying Sheng bellowed.

Silence followed from the other line. Han Xi was stunned to hear such words from Ying Sheng. He could hear the venom in her tone. He didn’t know what to say. It seems she was furious.

“Are you angry with me?” Han Xi finally said after a long silence.

Hearing his soft voice, Ying Sheng bit her lips. How come one word from his mouth tame her wild soul?

Her anger vanished just like that after hearing his voice. Her heart thumped loudly in her chest. She took a deep breath and chuckled lightly.

“No, I’m ecstatic for being stood up again for the fifth time. And oh, I stood in the rain for hours because I thought prince charming would come on a white horse and shield me from the rain.” Ying Sheng said ironically.

“I…”

“You’re what…. sorry?” Ying Sheng laughed mirthlessly.

“Aren’t you tired of saying sorry every time?” She questioned.

Han Xi heaved a sigh, “I’m sorry. Something came up, and my phone was off.” Han Xi whispered.

“Can you please forgive me?” Han Xi asked nervously as if he was afraid; she wouldn’t accept his apology.

“…”

Ying Sheng looked at the ceiling as tears filled her eyes, and her lips pressed into a thin line as she attempted not to cry.

She wanted to stay away from him. Tried to tell him to go fu*k himself. But this was frustrating for her; she wanted to be strong and stop giving in too quickly into his demands. But she loved him and hearing the discomfort in his voice made her heart hurt.

“Can you promise me you won’t do it again?” Ying Sheng closed her eyes and asked him.

“I—-” Han Xi trailed off. He didn’t want to promise her and disappoint her again.

Ying Sheng waited for him to continue, but he didn’t.

“I’m done, Han Xi.” Ying Sheng spoke breaking the awkward silence between them.

“What do you mean?” Han Xi asked, fl.u.s.tered.

“I can’t do this again. I’m done waiting for you. I’m done always cleaning after your sh*t. I’m done pretending that I wasn’t waiting for you anytime you stood me up. But most of all, I’m done being the last priority in your life.”

“Ying Sheng, I’m sorry okay?” Han Xi pleaded.

“Chen Yi got sick, and I couldn’t leave her alone!”

Ying Sheng felt as if someone was piercing a thousand needles in her heart.

‘Of course it was Chen Yi. It will always be her. His beloved.’

“So, you were too worried about your princess that you forgot to send this black swam a simple text message?” Ying Sheng asked flatly.

Han Xi panicked when he heard her flat tone.

“Ying Sheng don’t you think you’re overacting? You know Chen Yi’s body is weak!”

“Hmm. Well, guess what? I’m sick and tired of always being everyone’s last priority and still waiting for someone to remember that I exist too! I’m also a human; the fact that I act like I don’t care doesn’t mean that I don’t!

“Has it ever occurred to you that I also have feelings?”

Han Xi didn’t know what to say. Ying Sheng has never spoken to him like this before.

“I’m sorry…”

“You’re always sorry for Christ’s sake!”

Ying Sheng yelled and hung up the call. She squeezed her eyes; she didn’t want to cry. No, she wouldn’t cry. She was the infamous Miss Ying, feared and envied by people; why should she cry?

Ying Sheng wiped the tears from her cheeks and walked towards her father’s wine cellar. Her lips curved into a self-deprecating smile as she opened the cork of the wine and gulped down.

She sat on the floor, draping his elbows loosely over knees as she stared hard at the wall. She was drowning in her thoughts. She felt angry for allowing herself to be this vulnerable, but she loves him. She f.u.c.k.i.n.g loves him, and the fact that she means nothing to him hurts.

——-

Han Xi stared at his phone and ran a frustrated hand through his hair. Why does his heart hurt when he heard the pain in Ying Sheng’s voice? Why is she behaving like this?

Han Xi brows knitted together as he contemplated whether or not he should call her. At that moment, a soft voice called him.

“Hy hun, why are you standing here? We were supposed to have lunch remember?”

Han Xi turned to look at Chen Yi, “Sorry, Babe,”

Chen Yi walked towards him and hugged him. She wrapped her hands around his waist and kissed his jaw.

“What’s wrong?” She asked softly.

“Nothing.” Chen Yi looked up and met his eyes.

“If it’s nothing, why are you avoiding me? What happened?”

“I said it’s nothing.” Han Xi said, slightly irritated. He removed her hands from his waist and walked towards the kitchen.

She followed him as he made his way towards the fridge.

“You know I’m always here for you, Babe.” She said softly.

Han Xi’s expression softened, and he embraced her. He saw her hazel eyes filled with sadness, and he felt a pang in his chest. Honestly, he didn’t love her. He was with her because he owes her. Also, he thought he needed someone to spread some warmth in his cold world.

“Han-”

He cut her off as he slammed his lips into hers.

“I want you.” Han Xi rasped between their kisses.

“Yes.” Chen Yi yanked his belt buckle while Han Xi shucked as many clothes as he had the patience to remove.

He kept kissing her, trailing kisses on her neck. He turned her around and made her face the flush refrigerator door.

Chen Yi chuckled, “Eager, are we?”

Han Xi ignored her as he thrust into her from behind.

“Aahh!” She cried out as Han Xi began thrusting into her.

Han Xi closed his eyes and dug his face into her shoulder as he increased his pace.

“H-an…Xi” She m.o.a.ned his name in pleasure.

With a growl, Han Xi kept thrusting into her harder. His hands holding her h.i.p.s tightened.

He felt her getting close to the edge as he continued to pound into her.

‘Han Xi!” She cried out his name as waves of ecstasy consumed her. Han Xi groaned as he felt himself spilling inside her as he thrust a couple of times.

Then he pulled out. Chen Yi blushed when she turned around to face him.

“Sorry, did I hurt you?” Han Xi asked softly.

Chen Yi shook her head.

Han Xi nodded and planted a soft kiss on her lips.

“Go freshen up so we can eat.”

Chen Yi wanted to say something, but she just nodded and walked towards the bedroom.

Han Xi didn’t know why, but s.e.x with Chen Yi didn’t excite him for the first time. It made him feel empty, like something is missing.

Suddenly Ying Sheng wicked smirked flashed through his eyes, and he stiffened.

‘F.u.c.k, what was wrong with him?’
