Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife-Chapter 91 Will she ever love me?

Ying Sheng stared at the sky, which was dark as slate, the wind blowing the rain straight into her face. She couldn't believe how bad her luck was. She had jumped over the wall just to meet Han Xin because she knew her mother wouldn't let her go out this late in the night.

Han Xin had promised to take her to a new club tonight, and she had wasted two hours just to dress up for him. Something she has never done for a man before. She just wanted him to notice her, Yeah, the bad girl was desperate for her crush to notice her. Maybe she needed that validation that she could also be loved. That she wasn't a monster that nobody likes, but perhaps she really is. Nobody wants her around or wants to spend time with her.

A trace of sadness flashed through her eyes. She had been stood up by him again. She had been standing here waiting for him for two hours now, but there was no sign of him. He was also not picking up his phone. Ying Sheng knew he will give excuses when the day ends.

He will offer a lame excuse and pretend he did nothing wrong. And all she will do is retort that she wasn't even waiting for him like every time he stood her up. They say love can make the strongest woman act like a fool, and they couldn't be any right.

Ying Sheng chuckled mirthlessly. She was so stupid thinking he would change and for once be his number one priority. The rain blurred her vision as she stared at the sky, opening her mouth, the tiny drops landed on her tongue as she waited for it to wash her away misery.

Ying Sheng didn't want to feel this sadness, loneliness. She would rather lie in her bathtub right now with a beer in her right hand and a cigarette in the other. Then she would take a long puff of the cigarette to release the darkness that was about to consume her. That would help her feel nothing but numbness. No sadness. No pain. No hurt, and lastly, she wouldn't have meaningless expectations.

Liam frowned as he listened to the news on the radio in his car. A storm was about to hit, and they were cautioning people to be careful. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

Apparently, Liam had attended yet another tortuous meeting with the executives of his company. Not like he was paying attention to whatever they were sprouting. A certain red-haired had consumed his mind throughout the session. He had not seen her for days after their last meeting; he hopes she is okay.

A thunder crackled low and heavy at that moment, snapping him out of his thoughts. Softly splashing water droplets hit his car window as he drove. The skies were overhung with a blanket of grey, so much he could barely distinguish between the sky and clouds.

His windscreen flapping, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets as they fell on a familiar figure. She had tilted her head back as she stared at the sky with the rain falling on her face.

"What is she doing here?" Liam muttered to himself.

'Was she planning on running in the middle of the road again?'

His car screeched in front of her. Not expecting it, Ying Sheng jumped back in surprise.

She relaxed when she saw it was Liam getting out of the car.

"What are you doing here?" Ying sheng questioned as she gazed at him.

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you that question? Don't you know you will get sick standing in the rain?!" Liam scolded.

Ying Sheng blinked as she stared at the man in front of her. 'Is this really her Cutie? She hasn't seen him for a few days, and he has become this fierce.'

"I-I was waiting for Ha-" Ying Sheng trailed off as she heaved a sigh.

Liam's eyes narrowed when he realized- a few of her words registered in his brain. Especially the waiting part.

'So she was waiting for that guy in the rain?' Liam felt a pang in his heart, but he quickly masked the pain brewing in his eyes.

"Let's go." He said as he took her hand and led her to his car.

He saw that the black dress she was wearing, which was now drenched, fitted her like a second skin, outlining every curve, dip, and nook of her body.

Liam felt heat rushing to his cheeks. Clearing his throat, he averted his gaze.

"Are-you cold?" Liam queried softly.

Ying Sheng, who was staring at the window, turned to look at him and nodded.

Liam turned on the heater in the car and started the car.

Ying Sheng looked at the scenery along the way. The cold started creeping inside her, making her shiver.

Standing in the rain was a bad idea. She sneezed, which cause Liam to turn to look at her.

"Are you okay?"

Ying Sheng stifled a sneeze with an index finger under her nose and nodded.

"Yeah."

Taking a deep breath, he asked, "Do you want to go to my place?"

Once the words were out of his mouth, he squeezed his eyes shut and mentally slapped himself.

"No-no-no…it's not what you're thinking."

Ying Sheng stared at him, saying nothing. If it was a typical day, she would have teased him, but not today. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

"I mean, we are both wet- from the rain, and you seem to get a cold since my house is closer—I."

Ying Sheng just nodded and turned to look throughout the window.

Liam was excited because he would take a woman home for the first time; his mood dampened when she realized Ying Sheng was in a grim mood.

'Was she sad because of that guy?' He felt a sudden ache in his chest.

'Will she ever like me?' Liam asked himself as his brows bumped together. He glanced at her and focused back on the road.
