The Devil who devoured Snow White

Chapter 35 - I Told You To Wait

Lu Mengjie was trying her best not to smile upon watching the situation before her. This man knew how to please women and she was liking him even further. Not bad, not bad. He was like one of those doting husbands she has read from books. Perfect. Just perfect.

Lian Liu trembled in fury. He refused to apologize and kneel. His lips were stretched into a thin line.

"Darling, I'm fine." The woman suddenly said, "I don't want to waste any second longer here."

Yong Liwei placed his hand on her waist. "Not until they kneel and apologize to you, sweetheart. Since they don't know how to properly treat a woman, shouldn't I give them a lesson?"

"The lesson can wait, I can't. " She puckered her lips in an adorable manner as she looked at him with her beautiful, obsidian orbs.

He sighed in defeat. He wasn't going to argue with her if she has already decided on it. He glanced at the men, "I will deal with all of you later." He turned away together with Lu Mengjie and headed straight to the elevator.

Lian Liu had a dark, ugly expression on his face when he watched the couple walk away. He has never felt so humiliated in his life. On the other hand, his men were relieved. Their instincts could already tell that the woman's 'husband' was not just a simple guy.

...

The moment they arrived at Yong Liwei's room, Lu Mengjie bursted into laughter.

The guy ended up staring at her for a while. Her laugh was pleasing, it was like music that tarried in his ears. A small, helpless smile appeared on his lips. "I can't believe you still can laugh after being put in such a situation."

"How can I not? Have you even saw the looks on their faces?" She giggled happily. "I feel like a married woman right now!"

"Aren't you supposed to be my 'secret wife'?" He led her to the living room.

"Then you better get me a ring soon!" She grinned playfully.

He just shook his head as she completely overcame him. "Wait here, we need to put an ointment on your bruise." He turned and went to his room only to be followed by Lu Mengjie inside.

He stopped just in front of the door and faced her. "I told you to wait."

"I don't want to," she retorted with a stubborn smile curved in her lips.

Yong Liwei never thought he would end up bringing back a woman in his room. He was staying at the hotel for only a couple of days because of work. That night, he was only planning to get a few drinks and relax but he never thought that he would meet her the moment the elevator door slid open. He was bewitched by her the moment she caught his attention.

He grabbed her hand. As he did, he felt something, like a spark ignited the instant he touched her. Again with that electrifying feeling. It was distracting him from what he was supposed to do.

She turned to look at him with her beautiful black orbs, both bright and clear. Strangely enough, she didn't look nervous being with a stranger like him given that he was about to devour her.

He took a step forward as he gave her a domineering look. "You shouldn't be following a man in his room."

"But I just did," she replied rather cheekily. It somehow made him question if she was brave or just stupidly daring. She was young, there were people like her who were willing to jump into a world of the unknown. It was just... he felt like she deserved someone better. She was wasting her time on him.

"You don't know what you're getting yourself into," he warned for the nth time. One moment he wanted her to sleep with him, the next he was hesitating. Obviously, because it was her first. Aside from that, she was someone related to one of his family even if they have zero connection in blood. He wanted her to decide carefully. He didn't want her to throw her life away by meeting someone like him. He opened his mouth and continued, "you're about to have sex with a man who is a lot older than you."

She held back his hand and smiled, a smile that struck something in his chest. "The old man happens to be handsome."
