...
After finishing the meal, she gritted her teeth. "Husband, I want to eat vegetables."
"My dear wife, be good… I'll get them for you right away."
...Grinding her teeth… Be good, my foot.
"Husband, I want pigeon meat."
"Alright, wait just a moment, I'll get it for you."
"Husband, I want deer meat."
"Alright, I'll get it for you."
"Husband, I want goose meat."
"Alright, I'll get it for you."
"Husband, I want soup."
"Okay, be good, I'll serve it for you." Alaric Yun looked completely content, his face full of affection.
…
Hmm, her stomach had been empty all morning. Now finally about seventy to eighty percent full, Pearl Su felt relieved and relaxed.
Now, she didn't need to keep humoring this annoying man, asking him to get food for her. She didn't have to put up with his nonsense anymore. What a relief.
Pearl Su sat quietly at the side without saying another word.
"My dear wife, are you done eating?" Seeing that she wasn't moving or speaking, Alaric Yun smiled at her.
Hmph, she couldn't be bothered to respond, her face stiff and expressionless.
"My wife has such a cruel heart. As soon as I'm done serving her, she tosses me aside. It really breaks my heart. As punishment, you'll have to sit here and accompany me while I finish eating," Alaric Yun teased.
…Pearl Su clenched her jaw. Stupid man, you were going to help me back after the meal anyway. Sitting is sitting, no difference where I do it. I can't be bothered with you.
She watched the annoying man in front of her, elegantly eating his food. His movements were smooth and graceful, full of noble air.
For a moment, Pearl Su was grinding her teeth in irritation. Hmph, acting all refined, but he's just shameless.
Then suddenly, an idea popped into her head.
He was chewing slowly on a piece of deer meat, and she said, "Husband, I want to eat fish."
Ha, you're eating now, let's see how you respond. Graceful and noble? Go to hell. I want to see you all flustered.
Alaric Yun looked at her, still chewing.
"What's wrong? Don't want to serve me anymore?" Pearl Su said mockingly.
Alaric Yun didn't say a word. He reached out with his chopsticks to get some fish while still chewing meat.
Seeing this, Pearl Su smiled with satisfaction.
After she finished the fish, Alaric Yun asked with a smile, "Wife, do you want anything else? I'll get it for you."
Pearl Su didn't respond, didn't even look at him.
"You don't want to eat anymore? Then I'll continue," he said.
When Alaric Yun started eating a piece of goose meat, Pearl Su spoke again, "Husband, I want chicken soup."
Alaric Yun looked at her again, didn't say anything, kept eating while scooping the soup. Then he fed it to her. After she drank it, he asked, "Wife, are you full now?"
Pearl Su didn't answer and just sat there quietly again.
Seeing this, Alaric Yun didn't say anything either and continued eating.
While he was eating pigeon meat, Pearl Su said again, "Husband, I want deer meat."
Alaric Yun looked at her again, still chewing, and silently picked up a piece of deer meat and brought it to her lips.
Pearl Su ate it in one bite. After finishing, she went back to sitting silently.
When he was eating deer meat, she spoke again, "Husband, I want pigeon meat."
Alaric Yun looked at her again, chewing, then quietly picked up some pigeon meat and brought it to her lips.
Pearl Su ate it in one bite. At that moment, Alaric Yun leaned close to her ear and said with a low laugh, "Wife, are you doing this again and again because you want us to be a couple who eats and drinks together, always loving and inseparable?"
…
His low laughter continued by her ear. "If that's your wish, then I'm more than happy to help you fulfill it."
Alaric Yun moved away from Pearl Su's ear, scooped a bowl of chicken soup, drank half of it, then suddenly pinched her jaw open.
Before Pearl Su could react, he pressed his lips to hers. The warm broth flowed into her mouth as he deliberately stirred with his tongue before pulling away.
Still stunned by his sudden act, Pearl Su heard his low, teasing voice, filled with a hint of mischief, "Wife, this kind of affectionate closeness feels quite nice. I enjoy it. Shall we continue?"
He picked up a piece of venison, chewed it a few times, then leaned down and tried to pass it into her mouth with another kiss.
Unfortunately for him, Pearl Su clenched her mouth shut, refusing to let him in.
"Mmph…"
As he was blocked, his jaw tightened in frustration. He forced her mouth open again, and this time the meat slipped inside. He kept pushing it deeper, making it spread across her mouth.
When their lips finally separated, Alaric Yun's face had darkened. His gaze was deep and intense as he stared at her, voice low and rough.
"So, it seems my wife doesn't want to be a loving couple who shares everything with her husband. But I do."
"From now on, let's stay inseparable and always oppose each other. Won't that make you happy, wife?"
…Pearl Su
Without giving her a chance to respond, Alaric Yun continued his punishment. Every time he fed her, he mixed in so much movement that she was left breathless, struggling, and unable to speak.
By the time the meal was over, Pearl Su deeply regretted her decisions. She sighed silently—she had miscalculated.
When Alaric Yun finally finished feeding her the last bite, his gaze turned cold and shadowed. "Wife, we're so affectionate now. Aren't you happy?"
Pearl Su was already upset, but his eerie tone broke her composure completely. Her eyes widened in anger, and her voice turned icy. "I only feel disgusted by you."
Alaric Yun chuckled, clearly unfazed. "You'll enjoy it every day from now on."
Pearl Su glared at him.
He smiled. "Let's return to bed, wife. I have energy again. I promise to leave you satisfied."
Pearl Su felt a sharp pain in her chest. She was fuming.
As Alaric Yun carried her back to the bed, he whispered by her ear, "You feel heavier after lunch, wife."
Pearl Su…
She wanted to kick him. He was the reason she ate so much.
Once they got on the bed, Alaric Yun started another round of torment. When it was over, Pearl Su was too exhausted to keep her eyes open and fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already evening. The first thing she saw was the handsome face of that dog of a man.
She tried to move but still felt too weak.
Silently furious, she wondered: what did that dog man give her? Why did it last this long?
"You're awake, wife, and still not calling for your husband. I'm heartbroken," Alaric Yun said gently.
Cry all you want, Pearl Su thought, rolling her eyes in silence and shutting her eyes again.
"Mmm…"
Her lips were kissed again. This time, the kiss carried punishment. Her jaw was pinched until it hurt, and her mouth was forced open.
After a long while, Pearl Su lay weak and breathless, her eyes filled with rage as she stared at him.
Alaric Yun smiled, "From now on, you must always remember to call me husband. Otherwise, I'll be upset."
…Pearl Su didn't respond. She just stared blankly at the ceiling.
A warm hand cupped her cheek and gently turned her face toward him. His smiling eyes met hers.
"When I'm beside you, your eyes should always be on me. Understood?"
…Why don't you just drop dead?
"Right now, your eyes are on me. That makes me happy."
…
His pale, elegant hand turned into gentle fingers, lightly brushing across her soft, pink cheeks.
The tender touch made Alaric Yun feel a warm satisfaction. "No matter how I look at you, wife, you make my heart race."
…Where exactly do I make your heart race? I'll change it. Pearl Su silently grumbled.
