This sensation of almost having absolute control but not being able to fully dominate was supremely comforting to Kang Chen.
It made Kang Chen even more displeased with Ming Mei.
He snapped sarcastically, “Since you’re better now, stop causing trouble.
I don’t want to witness this again.”
Supporting her body to lift herself up a bit, Ming Mei brushed the hair strands off her face, giving a weak smile, “Rest assured, there won’t be a next time.
But you…
I made it through.
Aren’t you disappointed?”
Ming Mei couldn’t help but prick Kang Chen with her words.
Thinking of how he was just reveling in pleasures moments ago irritated her.
Ming Mei watched as Kang Chen laughed – and it seemed like he really meant it, but it made her feel shaky inside.
She knew she wasn’t the type of woman with a stunningly beautiful body.
Her appeal lied in her delicate features and her elegant, fresh aura which floated above the mundane world like a fairy untouched by mortal sins.
What Ming Mei was unaware of was that her eyes, though not particularly large, were extremely bright.
They were like the finishing touch on a dragon painting – the essence of her entire being.
When she smiled, her eyes would slightly squint, and the corners of her eyes would tilt downwards, her radiant smile outshining the morning light.
Even Kang Chen was momentarily captivated.
He quickly snapped out of it, irked.
The fact that he found this woman’s smile pleasant annoyed him.
He blamed it on the lack of rest from the previous night that made his eyes fatigued.
A sense of irritation arose in Kang Chen’s heart.
He suddenly wanted to leave.
Looking down at Ming Mei, his frosty voice shed no semblance of emotion.
“It is indeed disappointing.
Next time you want to die, let me know.
I’ll make sure to give you a grand farewell.
You won’t have a chance to come back alive.”
The lack of warmth in Kang Chen’s words, coupled with his revulsion-filled gaze, made it seem like he might truly follow through.
If he were to say this, everyone would surely believe him.
However, only Kang Chen himself would truly know if he meant to do it when the time came.
Ming Mei’s teeth hurt from biting down in anger.
She dearly wanted to beat him to death, but being at his mercy, her physique was weak.
She had to bear with him.
Otherwise, if she angered this commander, he might genuinely kill her.
For the sake of survival, she had to endure.
With a forced smile, Ming Mei retorted, “Thank you, I’m good.
If there is a next time, I promise I won’t bother you.
I will make sure I go quickly and cleanly.
But I don’t think such a chance will come again.
Since you are alive and well, how can I bear to die?”
The last few words carried a spiteful bite.
In her heart, Ming Mei bitterly thought: If only you weren’t fine, then I could rest in peace.
But as long as you’re okay, I’ve got to live better than you.
Clenching his brows, Kang Chen felt a sudden shift in his impression of her.
If she hadn’t retained the same face, he might have suspected that this wasn’t the same unyielding Ming Mei he knew.
There was too much of a change in her speech and behavior.
As Kang Chen observed Ming Mei coldly, she felt immensely uncomfortable under his gaze.
If his gaze were a bullet, Ming Mei felt like she would have been shot dead countless times by now.
Ming Mei felt really uncomfortable under his gaze.
After a moment, she asked, “May I make a request?”
“Speak,” Kang Chen slightly loosened up.
He knew this woman was up to something.
Sure enough, she couldn’t resist making a request.
Ming Mei scrunched up her nose and said, “The next time you come out from another woman’s bed, please remember to clean up before meeting others.
That smell…
It’s too nauseating…”
