Gao Lan i's head imdiately turns at him when she hears him groan. She sits up to check on him fully.
"What is it? Is your stomach still painful?" She asked worriedly, as she urgently coats her palm with spiritual energy, reaching for the part on his stomach that she had hit earlier, trying to ease his pain.
Her concern warms Wei Jiayi's heart and it helps him get over with the sharp uncomfortable feeling that he suddenly got from his brain to his spine.
He reaches for her hand to hold, and places it on his head instead. "A little here. Not the stomach. It is nothing, really. There, all good." he says after a while, placing her hand down and tucking her back inside.
Wei Jiayi hopes he did not feel another one of those pains from earlier as that'll an that he really needs to leave very badly. That makes him wonder why he is not numb to it yet.
With Gao Lan i adding hurting him as one of her hobbies, it should not take long before his tolerance to pain will be nonexistent.
"Don't worry about it." Wei Jiayi assures her softly with a smile since Gao Lan i is still looking at him skeptically. Sadly he only gets a glare in response.
"You are lying again." Gao Lan i accuses, before turning around and moving to the edge of the bed, giving him the cold shoulder.
Wei Jiayi is alard, "No, I promise I am not lying... Hey..." He explains frantically as he touched her shoulder but is brushed off, and she continued to ignore him.
"i i its the truth. I swear! It's not really painful, it is just a summon and it is uncomfortable..." He whispered dejectedly.
That gets her attention, "Summon?" She asks, turning around to face him, all ears, waiting for him to explain.
"Yes. It is a sentinel summon..." Wei Jiayi mutters sadly. If he is being summoned, that ans the delegates from the other universe must be very important. 'Please no more second call,' he thinks.
Wei Jiayi has other things to do, but his priority is to woo his wife. Things are going well now so if they really make him leave tonight, he will make sure soone l pays for it later.
"So you're leaving..." Gao Lan i looks at Wei Jiayi intently, "Hmm... Is it going to be dangerous?" She asks with a frown.
Wei Jiayi shakes his head as he smiles, "It's not dangerous. Are you going to miss ?" He asks teasingly.
She looks at him deadpanned before answering, "No. I am going to look for a new husband." Gao Lan i mutters seriously, before turning around to hide her silly smile.
Gao Lan i is still grinning when she is grabbed by the waist and pushed onto her back. Both her hands held down by the wrists at both sides of her head.
Wei Jiayi weight on top of her pins her to the bed as he looks down, very pissed and half shifted, the outline of his scales prominent from his chest to his neck up to his cheeks.
His mismatched eyes showing his predator side that is glaring at Gao Lan i, with betrayal.
For so reason she cannot help but imagine smoke coming out of his nose right then, making her chuckle at his reaction to her sham.
Wei Jiayi narrows his eyes at her before closing them tightly as he speaks, "Tell that you are lying."
He says that under his breath, slowly, hoarsely, but with a very dark tone. Like he is on the edge of his limit. That tone alone proves that he is upset and very much hurt.
