Chapter 264 - punishment (1/2)

”What happened Mei?” After some time Feng Jianyu ruffled her hair which was still damp and asked softly as ever, ”Why are you so restless? Share your problem with me”

”Jianyu I-I'm hiding something from you”

”If you want to share, feel free. But if you need time, don't bother. I will wait”

”I want to share. It's suffocating me badly” Xiu Mei choked and he caressed her back to comfort her, ”Then don't let it suffocate you. Tell me”

Xiu Mei took a deep breath to clear her mind before narrating the entire story of four days spent in the North City while looking for Feng Jianyu. She wanted him to know that she is not an innocent little chipmunk but a deadly predator that can kill someone if required.

”... after killing Zeus we ran away from military camp….. later I opened my eyes beside you…..” As she ended her story Xiu Mei rested her head on Feng Jianyu's chest. She felt light after telling him everything but her heart trembled waiting for how he will take the reality.

Feng Jianyu didn't take even a minute before he got up to sit on the bed and bring her to sit on his lap. He knows how much these things affect her, and right now she must be thinking that he is going to judge her.

”Sweetheart if you are thinking that I'm going to judge you then please chuck this thought out of that pea-sized brain of yours” He chuckled and hit the side of her head lightly, ”In fact, I'm happy that my wife knows how to protect herself and people around her when the need arises. The men you killed were not any saints but dirty scums who had no right to live. I'm so proud of you”

She looked at him surprised, ”Really?”

He instantly nodded and pecked her on lips, ”Of course! I'm glad you are not a typical damsel in distress but a complete surprise package for me. Intelligent, daring, adorable, brave, independent....”

”Continue… Why did you stopped? It sounded so good to hear” She looked at him in anticipation for more praises. Who doesn't like being praised anyway?

Feng Jianyu gave a fake smile and continued, ”…..and sometimes silly, stupid, an idiot and stubborn!” He said in a stern tone.

Xiu Mei ”…”

”Don't think that I don't know you messed up with Feng Communication satellite appointed for your safety”

Xiu Mei ”…”

”You know about it too?” Her eyes widened in shock.

”That satellite failed to track you when you were missing. But today all of a sudden it started tracking you back. What do you think about what had happened before? Is the word 'fool' written of my face?” He reprimanded her mercilessly and Xiu Mei's head lowered in guilt, ready to take up the punishment. Indeed she should have not messed up with the satellite.

”I'm sorry. It won't happen again”
