My Evil Cinderella: Taming a Villainous Wife Chapter 104 - Why are you crying?

"It doesn't turn you off?" Huang Li asked, looking straight at her.

Fan Xiao Yao smiled, "Nope, not at all. So that means you were troubled because you thought that it wouldn't work well with me?"

Huang Li nodded, "Yes."

She chuckled lightly, "If that's the case then you don't have to worry! You don't have to follow me secretly like a stalker, if you want to come along with me, you could just have told me."

Huang Li smiled helplessly. Fan Xiao Yao never had any impure thoughts, she may be naive but her innocent side was making her more adorable. It made him want to keep her away from others and protect her.

"Can I be your girlfriend now?" Fan Xiao Yao smiled, blushing.

"Alright, but I have some concerns."

"Sure, tell me about it!" Fan Xiao Yao asked, smiling. She was so happy that her relationship with Huang Li was finally progressing.

"Stay at least one meter away from Zi Xuan." He was so serious about it to the point where he was frowning at the mention of his supposedly 'love rival'.

"Can I still talk to him?"

Huang Li pursed his lips. Even if he didn't like the idea of her talking with him, Huang Li didn't want to suffocate her by his possessive nature. "Fine, you can talk to him."

"Great! Then I guess we're now an official couple!" 

Huang Li chuckled when he saw her smiling from ear to ear. "Come here."

Fan Xiao Yao obediently went to his side. When she did, Huang Li pulled her in his arms. 

She didn't expect him to give her a hug but the way he hugged her melted her. 

"I'm going back to my room." Shi Enxi said, giving the empty plate to Zi Xuan.

"I really don't want to go and ruin the mood." Zi Xuan pouted.

Shi Enxi ignored him and instead went to her room.

With no choice left, Zi Xuan entered the room. "Um... I should go home now. I can leave the dishes for both of you, right?"

Fan Xiao Yao leaned back from Huang Li's hug and turned to Zi Xuan. "No way! You have to come and help us wash the dishes!"

"Uh... Do I really have to be a third wheel between you two?"

The next day, Shi Enxi was woken up when she heard the doorbell ring a few times.

What is Fan Xiao Yao doing? Can't she go and get check who it was?

In her annoyance, she went out of her room. She went and checked on Fan Xiao Yao's room first. She saw her sleeping, cuddling like a kitten beside Huang Li.

"Dammit... Are they deaf?"

In the end, Shi Enxi when to check on who it was.

To her surprise, she saw Lu Mello standing before her the moment she opened the door. He was holding a bouquet of roses. 

"Xi'er."

It took a week before she finally saw him again. Even though it was just a week, she felt like it has been months. She really missed him a lot.

"What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to pick you." He replied, a small smile on his lips. "Aren't you supposed to go home during weekends?"

"Let me prepare, why don't you get in first?"

Lu Mello was relieved when Shi Enxi was treating him nicely. He was a bit worried that she might still not want to see him.

"These are for you." He handed her the bouquet of roses.

"Thank you."

After inviting Lu Mello inside, she went to the kitchen to get something for breakfast. After she did, she went to get herself ready.

Shi Enxi didn't have to bring anything with her when she went out with Lu Mello.

"How are you?" He tried to make a conversation with her since she was too quiet inside the car.

"You've been checking me for days, you should have the answer to that question."

Lu Mello's lips were stretched into a thin line. Was she still angry at him?

He wanted to ask her but what if she really was still angry at him? It was already good for him that he was able to invite her home.

Upon reaching home, Shi Enxi directly went to their room to continue her rest there.

"Xi'er, can we talk?" Lu Mello once again tried to get to her, this time, in their room.

She turned to him and looked at him with a blank look on her face. "What do you want to talk about?"

"About... What I did to you back then... I'm sorry."

She scoffed, "Do you think a simple sorry like that will fix this problem between us?"

He lowered his head and clenched his fists tight. 

She raised her hand and was about to give him a slap but she couldn't do it. She lowered her hand and clenched it tight. She really missed him.

She leaned and rested her head on his chest.

Lu Mello didn't expect her to do something like that since he thought that she still was mad at him.

He missed her... Without holding back, he wrapped his arms around her, hugging her in his warm embrace.

"You have to make it up to me..."

"I will..."

"You have to pamper me more..."

"Okay..."

"You have to love me more..."

"Okay."

"Never hate me."

"I won't."

"You have to trust me more. Don't ever doubt me."

"Okay."

"I... I will never lie to you, in this marriage... so don't ever doubt me."

"I won't. I will listen to what you have to say before coming into a decision." He promised.

"You have to fulfill all your promises to me."

"I will."

She raised her head and stared at his face. She saw how teary his eyes was and it made her chuckle a bit. "Why are you crying? It's so unmanly."

She reached out and wiped the tears that formed on the side of his eyes.

"Don't worry, I won't cry-"

"It's okay." She interrupted him, smiling. "You can cry in front of me. Only in front of me, okay?"

"I don't want you to see this weak side of mine." Men always want to show their women how strong they are and Lu Mello was one of them.

"I'm your wife, it's okay to show them to me." She leaned and kissed his cheek, "I deserve a special treatment. I don't mind seeing all your sides... Happy... Angry... Sad... I want to see them all so it's alright, I... I will do my best to understand all your sides."
