Chapter 142: Obsession
Chapter 142: Obsession
Wei Jiayi tried to find where the voice was coming from but found no one. It's like she was speaking from multiple directions.
"Mei Mei, let's go now." He said gently, then added, "We already agreed to this. Have you forgotten again?" Wei Jiayi's sound was tired and accusing.
"Tsk. Who are you calling Mei Mei?" Her voice clear with unhappiness, then adding, "Go where? I do not understand what you are talking about Your Highness." Gao Lan Mei uttered, "Are you trying to tell me that you did something that you were not supposed to?" She suddenly asked remembering about his deceit pretending that he was part of her dream.
Wei Jiayi frowned. What of it if he had joined her dream on the Eye of Meng? He created it so he had full control of everything there. Because of it, he found her current mortal self. He was able to see her original appearance and the current one.
She might be different now but still was the same woman he was obsessed with, before until now. No one could understand how frustrating it was to want someone so bad but not knowing where to start looking, making him almost to madness.
He could only continuously ask if she was already with someone? Is he too late? So many what-ifs, regrets, that he should have had gathered enough courage to tell her how he felt before.
Denying it before was so easy, hoping it was an emotion that could easily be forgotten after a long time. Trying to forget multiple times before caused him unnecessary cleanups.
At first, he thought that he was only looking because he wanted an explanation of her abandoning him. Possibly a challenge, as he had never experienced being brushed off by anyone, but that was not the case.
If he could not even accept the fact that he wanted someone so badly despite not seeing her physically and just hearing her voice before, then where would his pride go.
She was his benefactor. A woman that made use of what she had and did not complain. Her limitations were also a way for her to improve. His admiration started from this. After a while, he learned more about the things she did on all domains, her name only known as a mysterious doctor, yes, the Holy Doctor, whom everyone wanted to see. Then his admiration turned into an obsession.
Everyone whom she had helped before was grateful, but no one knew what she needed to do to even obtain the capability to make her paws go out of her confinement.
Thinking more of before, she never said that she would stay. She really did not have any reason. Just like now, aside from his selfishness, there was really no reason for her to marry him.
"Are you talking about the dream? You can punish me for that but you still agreed." He said walking slowly to the inner part of the room. "You said as long as you have it and it will not cause you harm, I can have anything I want." Reminding her about her statement.
"Is this not causing me harm?" She asked sarcastically, which Wei Jiayi winced and did not rebut. It was not really harming but he knew was it's inconvenient.
Gao Lan Mei added, "You are fine with me punishing you? Can a wife even punish a husband here?" She asked with disbelief. The books she read did not say that, so she became interested.
Grinning, "Yes. It's fine. We are not really the normal husband and wife are we?", he said, feeling much better the Gao Lan Mei was willing to talk at least.
