Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 274: Marriage ring

For Wei Jiayi, even though they are not married yet in mortal standards, in his heart, since the time he started searching for her, he has never considered being anything else in her life. He can only accept himself as her husband.

He releases her wrists then he lifts himself up to sit at the edge of the bed.

Wei Jiayi pats his lap as he smiles at her, before speaking, "Please sit here. Come on, don't be shy." He utters playfully.josei

Gao Lan Mei is still speechless from what Wei Jiayi has just said. He has vowed to keep her as his only wife regardless of how many lifetimes he lives. She gets nervous as she is not sure what to say or if she can match his confession.

She is just thankful he did not ask her to do the same by being playful. Gao Lan Mei rolls her eyes but still moves to grant his request.

To his surprise though, his desire to make their current situation to be more comfortable is completely forgotten as she sits in his lap, facing him, legs around his waist, her arms circled around his neck.

She even gives him a peck on the lips before looking at him innocently.

Wei Jiayi realizes that Gao Lan Mei is different right now. Is this perhaps her way of giving him a reward for not lying? Or something else? Since that is the case, he will just enjoy the rewards of his hard work.

In truth though, Wei Jiayi is just being too optimistic at the moment, thinking that Gao Lan Mei also just wants to lighten the mood. Probably a good idea for Wei Jiayi, but not for her.

She is still trying to accept his oath, so doing something else will help distract her. One way to do so is by strangling on his waist as she makes sure to align her core to his while watching his face getting comical for trying to tolerate her schemes.

Wei Jiayi hisses, partly because of Gao Lan Mei's obvious attempt to make him happy or torture him to death but also because of another sting of pain from his spine. This time it is stronger than before and he is not able to hide his frustration because of it.

"Urgent?" Gao Lan Mei asked with a frown, "Is it always painful?" She adds, confused with the way the summon works for sentinels. A pawn or a messenger should be enough. Why should it be painful?

He only smiles at her sadly, "I will tell you more when I get back. Alright?" Wei Jiayi prefers to explain the sentinel things in the future.

Gao Lan Mei adds that to the things she needs to think about. She wants to know more but Wei Jiayi is not going to wait for her.

Wei Jiayi holds her left hand and puts a ring on her finger. "There." He looks at her with satisfaction as he checks how the ring looks in her hand.

Gao Lan Mei stares at her left hand, especially the ring on her fourth finger. The ring is very light on her finger. It is a band of mostly black and middle of it gold. The stone in the center of it is dark silver. 

"What do you mean by this?" She asks with a frown. Using her spiritual energy she is able to decern that he has given her a storage ring, with a lot of items inside. Gao Lan Mei even finds the acupuncture needle box that she had asked him to give her earlier.

"Do you like it?" Wei Jiayi asked anxiously, "In other universe rings placed here means you're married..." He explains softly, as he touches her finger.
