For Wei Jiayi, even though they are not married yet in mortal standards, in his heart, since the time he started searching for her, he never considered being anything else in her life. He can only accept to her husband. He released her wrists then he lifted himself up to sit at the edge of the bed.
Wei Jiayi patted his lap as he smiled at her, before speaking, "Please sit here. Come on, don"t be shy." He uttered playfully.
Gao Lan Mei is still speechless because of what Wei Jiayi said. He vowed to keep her as his only wife regardless how many lifetimes. She was so nervous as she is not sure what to say or if she can match his confession.
She is just thankful that he did not ask her to do the same by being playful. Gao Lan Mei rolled her eyes but still moved to grant his request.
To his surprise though, his desire to make their current situation to be more comfortable was completely forgotten as she sat to his lap, facing him, legs around his waist, her arms circled around his neck.
She even gave him a peck on the lips before looking at him innocently.
Wei Jiayi already realized that Gao Lan Mei is different right now. Is this perhaps her way of giving him a reward for not lying? Or something else? Since that is the case, he will just enjoy the rewards of his hard work.
In truth though, Wei Jiayi is just thinking too much positive at that moment as Gao Lan Mei just wants also lighten the mood. Probably not a good idea for Wei Jiayi, but not for her.
She is still trying to accept his oath, so doing something else will help distract her. One way to do so is by strangling on his waist as she makes sure to align her core to his while watching his face getting comical for trying to tolerate her schemes.
Wei Jiayi hissed, not only because of Gao Lan Mei"s obvious attempt to make him happy or torture him to death but also because of another sting of pain from his spine. This time is stronger than he is not able to hide his frustration because of it.
"Urgent?" Gao Lan Mei asked with a frown, "Is it always painful?" She added, confused with the way the summon works for sentinels. A p.a.w.n or a messenger should be enough. Why should it be painful?
He only smiled at her sadly, "I will tell you more when I got back. Alright?" Wei Jiayi prefers to explain the sentinel things in the future.
Gao Lan Mei added that as a part of the things that she needs to think about. She wants to know more but Wei Jiayi is not going to waiting for her.
Wei Jiayi held her left hand, then placed a ring on her finger. "There." He then looked at her with satisfaction as he checks how the ring looks at her hand.
Gao Lan Mei stared at her left hand, especially the ring on her fourth finger. The ring is very light on her finger. It is a band of mostly black and middle of it gold. The stone in the center of it is dark silver.
"What do you mean by this?" She asked with a frown. Using her spiritual energy she was able to decern that he has given her a storage ring and there are a lot of items inside it. Gao Lan Mei even found the acupuncture needle box that she is asking him to give her earlier.
"Do you like it?" Wei Jiayi asked anxiously, "In other universe rings placed here means your married..." He explained softly as he touched her finger with the ring on it.
