After being reborn as a rich and beautiful woman, she let herself go.

Chapter 64 Because I changed my mind and don't want to let go

Hua Meimei could tell that Luo Jiuyu was angry.

She didn't know why he had barged into Fei Chenfeng's house like that, or why he was so angry.

This is very unusual.

The two had a one-night stand, but their already distant marital relationship couldn't be completely changed overnight.

Fei Chenfeng stood up and explained to him, "Meimei is someone I invited to celebrate my birthday with me. We were classmates in junior high school, and she came to celebrate my birthday with me. You don't mind, do you?"

“If it were just a regular classmate, I certainly wouldn’t mind.”

Luo Jiuyu strode over, took Hua Meimei's hand, and helped her up from the chair.

“But you—” Luo Jiuyu turned her head, her gaze coldly fixed on Fei Chenfeng’s peach blossom eyes, “Do you think I don’t know what your feelings are for her?”

“Luo Jiuyu, Meimei hasn’t done anything to wrong you. If you’re angry, come at me, don’t hurt her,” Fei Chenfeng said sternly.

Luo Jiuyu then realized that she had indeed gripped Hua Meimei's hand a bit too tightly, and her wrist had turned red.

She seemed not to have reacted at all, her expression appearing lost in thought, as if she were pondering something.

Normally, she would have jumped up and resisted long ago.

"Meimei, are you alright?" Fei Chenfeng asked her with concern.

His voice was so gentle and earnest.

Facing such handsome men every day, Luo Jiuyu suddenly felt a great sense of crisis.

Luo Jiuyu released Hua Meimei's hand and gently put his arm around her shoulder.

"She's my wife, and I'll take care of her. You don't need to overstep your bounds."

"..." Fei Chenfeng twitched the corner of his mouth, not wanting to argue with Luo Jiuyu in front of Hua Meimei.

The atmosphere in the room became somewhat tense for a moment. Hua Meimei finally came to her senses. She looked at Luo Jiuyu, then at Fei Chenfeng, and coughed lightly, trying to break the deadlock.

"Um...it's your birthday today, Chen Feng, happy birthday! But I'm going back with him first, so as not to spoil your birthday celebration."

As she spoke, she subtly broke free from Luo Jiuyu's embrace.

Luo Jiuyu frowned slightly, but did not forcefully stop him. However, her cold gaze swept over Fei Chenfeng as if to warn him.

Fei Chenfeng gave a wry smile: "Alright, Meimei, I'll see you to the door."

“No need!” Luo Jiuyu immediately refused. “I’ll take her back. You don’t need to worry about it.”

After saying that, he took Hua Meimei's hand, this time with much gentler force, and led her towards the door.

Fei Chenfeng watched them leave, feeling utterly dejected. He had specially prepared her favorite steamed sea bass, but she left without even taking a bite.

Back across the street, Hua Meimei thought that Luo Jiuyu's anger, which had been somewhat restrained, would soon erupt.

However, he just frowned and stared at her without saying a word.

He was acting so strangely today. So strangely that she wasn't used to it.

Her mind was in turmoil. She glanced at Luo Jiuyu's tense profile and hesitated before speaking, "You're acting a bit strange today. Why were you so fierce to Fei Chenfeng? After all, it's his birthday today."

Fei Chenfeng had put a lot of effort into preparing a meal to invite her to celebrate her birthday, but the two of them hadn't eaten the cake or the food yet.

Luo Jiuyu snorted coldly: "He has ulterior motives towards you, can't you see that?"

She hadn't noticed it before. It wasn't until Fei Chenfeng said those things tonight that she realized.

Hua Meimei still stubbornly insisted, "So what if I can see it? He and I haven't crossed any lines. Sometimes I wonder, if I really cheated on him, what would you do? Would you immediately agree to a divorce?"

A few days ago, she did consider faking an affair and then quickly getting a divorce.

Ultimately, however, she did not choose to do that.

Because suitable partners for "cheating" are hard to find. If you pay someone to play the role of a third party, it's difficult to find a suitable one in a short time.

"Even today, you're still thinking about divorce?" Luo Jiuyu approached her, forcing her to sit down on the sofa. He leaned down, placing his hands on the back of the sofa, enveloping her completely.

She stared at him with her beautiful eyes, wondering what he wanted.

"Marrying you was not my intention. We have no feelings for each other. We live together reluctantly, making compromises and tolerating each other, which causes a lot of inconvenience in our lives. Isn't it natural for me to want a divorce and live freely? If it weren't for the fact that you lent me money, I would have filed for divorce long ago."

"Feelings develop gradually over time by spending a lot of time together." He looked thoughtfully into her eyes.

Looking at her closely from such a close distance, I noticed that her eyelashes were long and thick, her eyes were so beautiful, and even the pores on her skin were so delicate.

A hint of stubbornness lingered in her clear, watery eyes.

She's not easy to tame. He knows that.

But his desire to conquer had already been aroused by her.

Hua Meimei's heart pounded a little when Luo Jiuyu suddenly approached her. She turned her head away to avoid his burning gaze.

"Cultivate feelings? Luo Jiuyu, we've been married for several months, what feelings are there to speak of? Don't deceive yourself."

Luo Jiuyu straightened up, sat down next to her, stretched out his long arm and pulled her into his arms, ignoring her struggles: "Whether you believe it or not, from today onwards, I don't want to live like this anymore. I want you to truly become my wife, and only have me in your heart."

Hua Meimei stared at him wide-eyed, as if he were a monster: "Are you crazy..."

Luo Jiuyu smiled faintly: "Because I am your husband, and because I have changed my mind and don't want to let go. I feel uncomfortable when you get close to Fei Chenfeng, and this feeling confirms my feelings."

Hua Meimei was stunned for a long time before she found her voice: "This is possessiveness, not love."

Despite saying that, a ripple of emotion inexplicably stirred within her.

Luo Jiuyu gently pinched her chin, making her look directly at him: "Whether you like me or not, you'll find out slowly in the future."

"Didn't we agree not to interfere with each other? You just said not long ago that you wouldn't interfere with my interactions with the opposite sex."

Luo Jiuyu's eyes flickered. "I take back what I said before."

"Words spoken are like water spilled; can they be taken back?" Hua Meimei looked at him with disdain. "If you regret it someday, can you take back what you said tonight?"

"I won't." His gaze was intense, and he was absolutely certain.

Li Xiang came out of the bathroom and passed through the living room. Seeing their intimate posture, she was both surprised and delighted. So she tiptoed, intending to sneak back to her room.

"Aunt Xiang." Luo Jiuyu suddenly called out to Li Xiang.

"I didn't see anything, you guys continue," Li Xiang said with a smile.

Hua Meimei was both amused and exasperated. She had no choice but to push Luo Jiuyu away and stand up from the sofa.

"I'll take Meimei to stay out for a few days. I'll give you a break." Luo Jiuyu's mood improved, and she smiled.

Li Xiang was taken aback. "Are you going on vacation?"

"That's it."

After saying that, Luo Jiuyu pulled Hua Meimei out the door.

Hua Meimei called out hesitantly, "Why are you taking me? I haven't eaten yet."

I'm starving!

As he walked out of the house, he turned back and gave her a mysterious smile, "I'm taking you back to our real home from now on."

She couldn't understand what he was saying.

Isn't Zhenlongtai his home? Does he have other houses in Tiancheng?

"Luo Jiuyu, I'm hungry and tired, stop messing around."

"I've already told the kitchen over there to prepare the food; it's all your favorite dishes."

"What's going on? Even if I'm going to stay somewhere else temporarily, I still need to bring some luggage, right?"

"I had someone buy clothes for you this afternoon, and they've already been washed, ironed, and hung in the closet."

"Huh?" She had no idea what was going on.
