Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 567: Chapter 567 Really Thought of Death_1

“You bastard, beast!” Jian Yufei slapped him hard.

Ruan Tianling could have stopped her, but he did not.

Since he hit her yesterday, his heart had been uncomfortable, like there was a small stone in his shoe, making him uneasy with every step.

Now, after her slap, he felt much better.

Ruan Tianling pulled on the chain and continued to laugh, “I mean it when I say I see you as my most beloved woman. The reason I treat you like this is for fear that you might run away. You’re resourceful, always able to find the aphrodisiac and slip it into my food. Even if I keep you here, you might still get your hands on it. I can’t prevent you from drugging me, but I can prevent your escape. Yufei, I’m only doing all of this because you force me to.”

“Ruan Tianling, no one is forcing you, you are the one who can’t let go. In front of you, I no longer have any dignity as a human being. You’re going to drive me crazy.” Jian Yufei’s voice is filled with sorrow, she is completely disappointed in him.

How could he be this kind of person…

The man pulled her close, gently held her, pressed her head against his chest, and whispered, “If you were to go mad, it would be for my sake.”

His lips brushed against her forehead, his gaze dark, “Yufei, even if you become insane, I will not give up on you.”

Jian Yufei’s body started to shake, the spark in her eyes dimmed little by little.

In this moment, she had genuinely considered death.

Rather than suffering through this entanglement with him, it would be better to die!

But she couldn’t give in to death so easily! Before death, she had to do something.

“I’m hungry.” Jian Yufei said in an emotionless voice, like a puppet going through the motions.

Ruan Tianling released her, ran his hands through her hair, and gently said with a smile, “What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you.”

“Whatever.”

“Okay, I’ll make you some dumplings.” The man gave her lips a light peck, as tender as a caring lover.

Jian Yufei nodded. She did not quarrel with him anymore for chaining her up.

Both of them pretended as if nothing had happened, each wearing a mask. Even though they knew that the atmosphere had turned strange, nobody dared to admit it.

Ruan Tianling thought that it was decent if they could continue to get along this way. Even though he couldn’t keep her heart, at least he had managed to keep her by his side.

Going downstairs, he rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to cook.

Once before he had cooked for her, but since he didn’t know how, he simply boiled some eggs. She had turned up her nose at them and didn’t eat.

During the time she ran away, he numbed himself with work every day and occasionally tried his hand at cooking. He was not sure what he was doing, but somehow he always ended up making the dishes she liked.

By now he had learned to cook just about anything, and he thought that this time she wouldn’t reject his food.

Ruan Tianling quickly made a bowl of dumplings and took it to her upstairs on a tray.

Jian Yufei was sitting on the edge of the bed, with her knees curled up, wearing an ankle-length white dress.

The dress was strapless, with two straps at the chest area, secured around her neck, to prevent it from slipping down.

The dress was very flowy, fluttering as she moved, like a fairy’s gown.

She had been changed into this dress last night. Jian Yufei had no idea how Ruan Tianling had managed to do this without her noticing.
