Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 70 Mine

The moment Liam Xia, stopped the car in front of the house. He rushed to the passenger's side; opening the door, he slowly picked Ying Sheng in his arms as if he was afraid, he was going to hurt her. He ran to the house and brought her into his room. He laid her down on the king-sized bed.

Fortunately, his parents were on a business trip and his brother was probably partying out somewhere. It was just left with the servants in the house. He could see the butler's curious gaze when he brought her in but he ignored him.

Liam, went to the bathroom to find a towel to clean the mascara that had smeared on her cheeks due to her tears. He stared at her eyes which were closed; the long eyelashes were wet from tears. He felt a pang in his heart.

The sound of the butler knocking on the door snapped him out of his stupor.

"Young Master, the doctor is here." Liam stood up from the corner of the bed to welcome the doctor.

"Liam, what is the emergency?" The white-haired doctor asked as he glanced at Ying Sheng who was unconscious on the bed.

"I was driving, then out of nowhere I saw her standing in the middle of the road. Fortunately, I was able to stop the car just a foot away from her. When I got down to check if she was okay; she suddenly collapsed. "

Liam Xia said as he ran his hand through his hair. He was trying to calm down but he knew he could never get the picture of him nearly hitting her with his car out of his mind. He nearly killed the woman he has been having sleepless nights about.

"Don't worry. I will take care of everything." The doctor said softly. He has been the family doctor for years, even before Liam was born. So, Liam was like a son to him. He still remembers his panicked voice when he called him.

Liam nodded and left the room. He stood behind the door and waited patiently. He tapped his foot as he fell in deep thought.

Frustration, along with fear rushed through his veins. Ten minutes seemed like forever for Liam. Just as he was about to open the door to check if the doctor was done; the knob of the door shuffled and the elderly doctor came out.

"How is she?" Liam asked which desperation evident in his voice. He has never cared about a woman apart from his sister, mother, and cousins before. But now he was going crazy with the fear of losing a girl he had just met a few days ago.

"There is nothing to worry about, Liam. She just had a lot to drink and she seemed to be stressed out that's why she fainted. She would wake up in the morning."

Relief flooded through Liam's body, "Thank you."

After sending the doctor out, Liam opened the room. He glanced at Ying Sheng who was laying in his bed. He had envisioned several scenarios, where she was in his bed; but never like this. He stared at her as she slept underneath his covers. The white pillows and white bedsheet brought out her features making her looked serene.

Brushing a hand over her forehead, he walked to the bathroom to wash his face. He looked at himself in the mirror and her empty eyes flashed before his eyes.

'Why did she have such a look in her eyes; why was she drunk standing in the middle of the road at 2 am?' Liam had many questions but no one to give him the answers. Shaking himself out of his thoughts, he waked out of the bedroom.

Pulling a chair beside the bed, he sat down next to Ying Sheng as she slept. He took one of her hands in his. He had no idea what was going on with him. There was something about her that pulled him to her. Something about her made him want to make her his.

*******

Ying Sheng woke up with a sharp pain in her head. Was she in hell? She thought as she looked around her surroundings. She scrunched her brows together when she realized she was in an unfamiliar room and she was sure this place was definitely not hell.

Her eyes fell on the man who was dozing on the chair beside her. Then she screamed

"Aahhhh!!" Liam jumped out of his chair and onto his bed, putting both of his hands on her shoulders and lifting her chin up. Her eyes met his but the glow and mischievousness that once used to live within the brown orbs were gone.

"Ying Sheng, Ying Sheng what happened? Why are you screaming?" Liam asked, his voice laced with concern.

Ying Sheng pushed him away, her eyes blazing with anger.

"Why didn't you hit me with the car?! Why did you save me?!" She demanded angrily.

"I was finally ready---" Before she could even complete her sentence Liam lifted her off the bed and into his arms. Pressing her into his chest. He rubbed her back yet tenderly.

He didn't know what to say to comfort her, but he knew he had to. He tangled his fingers through her hair and played with it. She was shivering. He pulled the blanket and covered her body as she laid in his lap. Ying Sheng immediately melted into his embrace, she couldn't help but feel safe in this position. A feeling she had been craving for years as she wondered lonely in this world. Slowly her emotions subsided and she fell asleep.

*****

"Friends?" Ying Sheng looked at Liam in shock. Did she just hear him asking her to be his friend?" Once she woke up in the morning, she demanded him to take her home.

So here they were, sitting in his car parked a few blocks away from her house. She was afraid he would ask questions but he just pretended nothing had happened; she was grateful for this.

She wasn't ready to answer any questions. She wanted to go home, take a shower and sleep. Now he was asking her to be his friend.

"Friend." Liam mumbled.

"Why do you want to be friends with me?" she whispered.

Disappointment flashed through his eyes. "So-you're saying no?"

"Ah? No-no it just it's been a long since somebody has asked me to friends." Ying Sheng said with a sad smile.

Noticing the hint of pain in her eyes, Liam decided not to push it.

Taking a deep breath, "No. I don't want to be your friend." Ying Sheng said.

"Oh," Liam muttered lowly.

"If we are friends, I can't seduce you, Cutie. Remember you're mine. Especially now that I'm still alive because of you."

Liam widened his eyes and blushed. A smile lingering on his lips
