The Devil who devoured Snow White

Chapter 139 - Know Your Place

Upon arriving at the hotel where Han Yizhou was staying, Lu Mengjie headed straight to the floor where his room was located. She stood in front of a door with an 'M-1407' written on it. She rang the doorbell.

Seconds ticked by but there was no response from the inside. It only made her anxious.

"Please don't let me kill you. Please don't let me kill you," she muttered under her breath after pressing the doorbell again.

The moment the door was pulled open, Yong Liwei stood tall, wearing only a bathrobe. His hair was now dry but a bit messy, as if he just came out of bed. He looked very appetizing. A sex magnet. She couldn't help but stare at his sexiness for a few moments. Oh how she wanted to pull him to her and kiss him but… that was not why she came there. She instantly came back to her senses and without waiting to be invited, Lu Mengjie barged in, heading straight to his bedroom.

There was no one.

"What are you doing here?" Yong Liwei's deep, indifferent voice was heard from behind.

"Where is she?" She asked. She was fuming inside but she tried her best to remain calm outside. 

"What do you mean?"

"Don't hide her from me, Yong Liwei. I know that you were with a woman earlier." She checked the bathroom, his cabinet, even under his bed. There was no one.

The man came to realize. He was indeed with a woman earlier. The woman he caught talking to someone on his phone. So it was her.

"She is not here anymore."

She paused, her face darkening. She finally turned to face him. "So you're not denying it?"

He scoffed. "Why should I?" It was not like he was hiding it from her.

"That woman… did you had sex with her?" She began walking back towards him.

He raised a brow, not in confusion but rather in amusement, and seeing the look on his face only infatuated her further. "Yong Liwei! I am your wife!"

"No, that's not true. You are Han Yizhou's wife," he refuted.

"You are using HIS body so basically, I am going to be your wife too."

That was quite true. 

"So what will you do if I had sex with her?"

"YOU DID?!!" 

"No, but I did in the past." He crossed his arms together and continued to look at her, waiting for her to amuse him with the next reaction she would show.

She pressed her lips together. She knew that there was no way Yong Liwei would lie to her. In fact, she knew that he probably thought that his brutality would make her give up from pursuing his other-self.

She ended up inhaling deeply before heaving out a small sigh to calm her mind. It gave her enough time to rationalize the situation.

"If you didn't have sex with her, then what was she doing here?" 

"Why should I tell you?" He was not obliged to tell her anything. 

"Because I am now your LEGAL wife so for fuck's sake, Yong Liwei, can't you just leave me and Yizhou alone? I-" She paused and gasped, her eyes widened in surprise at what he did.

Yong Liwei wrapped his fingers around her neck but he didn't exert force to choke her. It was a warning. She forgot that he was the man who wouldn't hesitate in killing her. If not for Han Yizhou, her body would have already fallen on the ground, lifeless. "You've been talking disrespectfully to me for a while now." He had an irked look on his face.

She quieted down and looked into his eagle-like eyes. "If you want me to respect you, give me a reason cause right now, you're only being a prick." She smiled, aggravating him further to the point where she felt his hold around her neck tighten.

"Go on then, kill me right now." She continued to taunt. "It's what you're good at, right?"

He wanted to choke the life out of her but he couldn't. Something inside him was stopping him from killing her. Han Yizhou. It was always going to be him when it came to her and so, he released her.

That's right, Lu Mengjie knew that he couldn't do it despite all the taunting she threw.

"You should know your place."

"Oh I know my place alright. On top of you." She pushed him to the bed and hovered on top of him. While he was in a state of shock, she leaned down and kissed him. She brushed her lips against his then nibbling his lower lip.

Yong Liwei was still surprised. He didn't know whether the woman was brave or just plain stupid? He wanted to push her away but the moment her tongue made way in his mouth, he couldn't help but give in. She was sloppy and yet he could tell that she was trying.

Lu Mengjie could feel her cheeks heat up as she made the bold move. She inserted her hand under the robe and ran her fingers through his chest. She had wanted to touch them since earlier. By the time where she felt that he was finally kissing her back, she pulled away.

"If she did not come here to have sex with you, why was she here? Alone with you?"

It was then Lu Mengjie noticed the change in his eyes. Once again, Yong Liwei escaped her, switching to Han Yizhou.

"I'm sorry for the trouble he caused you, Mengjie." He gently brushed the stray strand of hair from her cheek before tucking it behind her ear.

"That woman, Yizhou. Tell me."

"She is one of my associates who reported to Liwei tonight. Don't worry, they did not do anything. Nothing at all." After all, he would never allow it not when he is already married to the woman he loves. He tried his best to stop Yong Liwei from doing something regretful.

Lu Mengjie couldn't help but sigh in relief. She was anxious. Different kinds of scenarios were playing in her mind. She dropped on top of his body, burying her face on his shoulder. "Don't scare me like that."
