There was an awkward silence, "Why?" He then asked. Lifting his hand with a wave to open the window drapes for her to see what"s outside.The outside shows sea creatures swimming without minding anything. There are even some merpeople that have long beautiful fish tails, pa.s.s by but did not even glance at the window.
Before she got distracted again, "Because you"re dangerous," she answered truthfully. Not sure who is she convincing.
"Yes, I am. Still, your desire made me appear on your dream." He said firmly, gritting his teeth. The air around him is turning cold, just like his original self, when he is annoyed or upset.
Wrinkling her nose with his reaction, "Probably. Or not. I am not sure what going on. Regardless, I am still not scared of you though." That"s the truth, she is just uncomfortable mostly annoyed if he is around. Then adding, "Handsome men are dangerous. They make women cry."
He abruptly looked at her, disbelief is showing on his face, "I am dangerous because I"m handsome?" He asked with disbelief. Like the statement is just very much ridiculous to mention.
The real Wei Jiayi might find it funny cause beings call him dangerous, a sleeping dragon, due to his bloodl.u.s.t.
She nodded seriously, "Too handsome. I want you to always wear a mask." her tone so grave. Right, if he wears mask she won"t be distracted.
His eyes glinted on what she said, "I can wear a mask now if you want." Then lifting his hand a mask appeared, ready to be worn. It"s a black Oni mask. "Then your all fine with me now, right?"
Before he can place it on his face, it was grabbed by Gao Lan Mei, her face with a half smile looking at him, "This is my dream. Wear the mask on your real life. We are alone here." His face is distracting but it does not mean she does not like looking at it. Enjoy it when she still has control of everything.
Then she said, " For now, you will follow everything I say since this is "my" dream." Giving full emphasis to every word said.
He just stared at her blankly at first, then smile, "Is that like how a husband follows his wife?" he asked curiously, eyes glinting with delight.
Gao Lan Mei"s brows furrowed, confused. How would she know? She was never married. For the Gao household, Madam Gao normally follows her husband.
It should be like that. The wife normally follows the husband based on the books that she has read before. His suggestion does not sound so bad anyway since this is only a dream. No harm was done.
If she will become a wife in real life, she may run away. Marriage is not for her, she can do mutual benefit though. Though it is necessary for the double repair, its best to run away after the did. She will leave a generous dowry for her future husband anyway. That should be all good.
She is still considering when he reached out to her brows and caressed the frown away, then he smiled at her gently.
"Do not worry about anything. The wife just needs to tell the husband what she wants, and it shall be done," he said with confidence.
Still unsure about the sudden change of event, his changing mood like the original Wei Jiayi, she just shrugged her shoulder, "Do you know the Eye of Meng?" she said, but realized as well that"s a stupid question, changing, "I mean, help me where to find it here." she said instead.
