The Surrogate Bride of the Colonel He

Chapter 77

C77 – Who Is The King?

“I’m done. When are you planning to release me?” Xu Yangyi, displaying a hint of impatience, addressed Hee Jingyan.

However, he wondered why Hee Jingyan suddenly inquired about his family background. What was the need for investigating it? Did it matter if they were not from country H? After all, people were generally the same everywhere, and being with his family was all that mattered to him. He never concerned himself with such matters.

Xu Yangyi didn’t show much interest in delving into his family’s history. To him, there seemed to be no reason for such conflicts. Moreover, his mother had expressed her wish for their past to remain concealed, so he respected her wishes and refrained from actively seeking information.

Hee Jingyan, frustrated by Xu Yangyi’s persistent insistence on being released, sighed and said, “I’ve already assured you that I won’t overstep any boundaries.”

He couldn’t help but grumble, even just holding his own wife led to complaints. It was rather unreasonable!

Complaining inwardly, Hee Jingyan managed to maintain a sweet demeanor outwardly.

“Your credibility has hit rock bottom here,” Xu Yangyi retorted. Should he allow them to leave or not?

Xu Yangyi, visibly irritated, made no effort to let Hee Jingyan go. He struggled to break free, but Hee Jingyan merely chuckled and teased, “Seems like you’re eager for me to take some action, my dear wife!”

Although Hee Jingyan sported a smile, Xu Yangyi was taken aback. Hee Jingyan didn’t need to spell it out; he was clearly issuing a veiled threat.

However, Xu Yangyi wasn’t one to back down easily. While he was momentarily unnerved, he quickly regained his composure. He sneered and quipped, “If you want me to break your arms and legs, I don’t mind, pal.”

Threatening him? Hmph! Xu Yangyi was no child; he wouldn’t be intimidated so easily.

Xu Yangyi regarded Hee Jingyan with a contemptuous look, but instead of provoking anger, it elicited a smile from Hee Jingyan. He took Xu Yangyi to the bathroom and suddenly pressed him against the wall, wearing an evil grin as he inquired, “Are you truly unconcerned about what I might do to you?”

Hearing this, Xu Yangyi’s lips twitched once more. He retorted, “Who wouldn’t be concerned? Do you not comprehend human language? I detest it, can’t you see?”

It was evident from the start that he had no intention of understanding me and simply wanted to provoke me by targeting my tofu. As expected, he’s asking for trouble.

“Then let’s have a competition. Who’s the true king here?”

Xu Yangyi was momentarily perplexed by Hee Jingyan’s proposal. He couldn’t quite fathom what Hee Jingyan meant by ‘competition,’ but before he could utter a word, Hee Jingyan silenced him.

Xu Yangyi muttered curses under his breath and made a frantic attempt to push Hee Jingyan away. However, Hee Jingyan seemed as immovable as a massive stone, and no matter how hard Xu Yangyi struggled, he remained firmly in place.

This infuriating uncle, is he deliberately seeking trouble?

Xu Yangyi seethed with anger. Despite his relentless efforts to dislodge Hee Jingyan, his husband remained steadfast and continued his audacious antics.

Finally, Hee Jingyan released him. Xu Yangyi eagerly gulped in the refreshing air.

“Hee Jingyan.”

Xu Yangyi clenched his teeth as he called out his husband’s name, his eyes burning with rage.

Hee Jingyan noticed his anger and hastened to raise his hand in surrender. “Wife, please calm down.”

“Calm down my foot! Do you want me to thrash you senseless?”

“No, no, of course not,” Hee Jingyan quickly tried to appease him.

Xu Yangyi snorted and shot a fierce glare at Hee Jingyan but refrained from saying anything further.
