Chapter 139: Chapter 139 Let’s Get Married (Three)
Mu Ruyue’s heart stirred with ripples. This man truly was a fool. Perhaps the luckiest thing since her arrival in this otherworldly realm was getting to know this man, and even more, receiving his lifelong protection.
No matter what, Mu Ruyue was a woman, and a woman could be moved, whether by Ye Wuchen’s past actions or his words now, none could leave her indifferent.
“Muer, let’s pick a day to get married,” Ye Wuchen gently took Mu Ruyue’s hand, his lips curving into a wicked smile as his tone suddenly became assertive with a deep possessiveness, “However, once you agree to marry me, you no longer have the right to abandon me. In this lifetime, you are only my woman. If any man appears by your side, I wouldn’t mind making their lives unbearable.”
Ye Wuchen couldn’t bear to hurt Mu Ruyue, even if other men appeared beside her. He wouldn’t hurt her, but those men would undoubtedly have to suffer his wrath. Was his woman, the Ghost King’s woman, someone anyone could covet?
“Beside me, there’s only Yan Jin, but he’s not a man; he’s just a little beast. You wouldn’t be jealous of a little beast, would you?” Mu Ruyue glanced at Ye Wuchen, unable to hold back a laugh.
This guy was truly a jar of vinegar…
“If I’m not mistaken, there was a Feng Jingtian who coveted you, and behind him, the Alchemy Conference’s Chairman wanted to give his grandson to you. Just yesterday, if I hadn’t arrived in time, that little beast might have done something improper to you,” Ye Wuchen narrowed his eyes, his smile suddenly turning devilishly charming, “My lady, should I be jealous?”
Mu Ruyue rolled her eyes at Ye Wuchen and said, “Feng Jingtian was beaten by you to the point of not being able to get out of bed for six months. Qingyu is completely innocent. I’m not very familiar with him; we’ve only spoken a few words. Everything was his grandfather’s doing. As for Yan Jin, he only sees me as his kin, nothing more.”
But indeed, last night had happened, and if Ye Wuchen hadn’t arrived in time, the consequences could have been unimaginable. Thus, as she spoke her last sentence, Mu Ruyue couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty.
“From now on, I’ll teach him to stop meddling in affairs that aren’t his concern, even if I can’t bear it, I will endure.”
“Endure? Like how you hurt yourself yesterday?”
Seeing her injured, he would rather have the wounds be upon himself, yet this woman always seemed oblivious to how to take good care of herself.
Suddenly, Ye Wuchen raised his hand to press Mu Ruyue down on the bed, and with a rip, tore off her clothes, revealing a deep scar.
“Wuchen, what are you doing? You…”
Mu Ruyue wanted to say more, but then saw Ye Wuchen lift his hand, his cool fingertips gently tracing the scar, his handsome and devilish face showing a trace of heartache.
“Muer, please, don’t get hurt anymore.”
Mu Ruyue’s body trembled slightly and she didn’t speak. If it hadn’t been absolutely necessary, she would not have done so, as she would have lost consciousness long before.
Moreover, being a Martial Artist often involved battling others, how could she assure she wouldn’t get hurt?
“Wuchen, I can only try to avoid unnecessary injuries.”
“Then make yourself stronger. Only when you are strong enough, I can be at ease,” Ye Wuchen looked up at Mu Ruyue, his smile wicked and languorous, and he slowly said, “I’m waiting for you to grow stronger, then, together, we shall step into that Peak together…”
