You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 342

Chapter 342 Be Good

Shen Yiyan stared at her dispassionately and Liu Yan didn’t know what to say at that moment.

The awkward silence started to turn eerie. This passive aggressiveness was so depressing that it might even make others feel breathless.

In the end, she turned to look at him. “I’m just out to travel for a few days. What are you doing?”

“Traveling for a few days or a few months? Liu Yan, I know what you’re thinking. Don’t play your tricks on me,” Shen Yiyan returned furiously.

Liu Yan slammed forcefully on the coffee table. “What’s wrong if I’m traveling for a few months? Why can’t I do that? Isn’t it a double standard to allow officials like yourself to go abroad but restrict my freedom to have some fun?”

“Have some fun? You’re rebelling against me,” Shen Yiyan berated heatedly.

“So what if I’m rebelling? Are you going to kill me? Come, kill me now.” There was a fiery glint in Liu Yan’s eyes. She was infuriated.

Shen Yiyan held her chin so tightly that her cheeks turned bulging.

Liu Yan struggled to shake off his hand but the more she jiggled her head, the more painful it felt on her face. By degrees, her face turned numb as a result of the soreness. Incensed, she shot daggers at Shen Yiyan.

“Keep moving. Go on. Why did you stop?” Shen Yiyan questioned her.

Liu Yan pursed her lips. Even though she stopped all her motions, the look in her eyes still bore the strongest message of her protest.

Shen Yiyan lowered his head and trapped her in his forceful kiss.

Liu Yan pushed him away but all her efforts were in vain. She was so agitated that beads of sweat started dotting on her nose.

Shen Yiyan only let go of her after a full three minutes of snogging.

The two of them stared at each other— both unwilling to yield.

“Can you just be good? You’ve already given birth to my child. You can’t just run about like that,” Shen Yiyan frowned as he said.

Talking about the child made Liu Yan even more aggrieved. Tears started welling up in her eyes and they turned misty all at once.

He raped her and made it appear like he had taken the contraceptive measures. Otherwise, she would have taken the pills.

When she knew that it was his child that she had conceived, she didn’t want to keep it but he sent his men to take her away.

Finally, when she was rescued, he proceeded to threaten her with Bai Rong’s life. She had no choice but to stay by his side.

God knows how reluctant I am to be with him. The person I despise the most in this world is Shen Yiyan.

I’ve disliked him even when I was young. This contempt only grows stronger as I age.

Shen Yiyan couldn’t bear to see her teary eyes so he loosened his grip and furrowed his eyebrows as he said, “If you just listen to me and stay obedient, I wouldn’t have hurt you. You were asking for it.”

Liu Yan clenched her fist tightly. The tears in her eyes remained there as she held them back stubbornly and complained, “I just want to go on a trip. Why am I not even allowed? I’ve been staying at home every day like I was a caged animal. I’m turning mad soon.”

“I have no objection if you want to travel but an unplanned trip like this is just too risky. What if you’re kidnapped? I’ll bring you on a trip when everything’s planned and arranged,” Shen Yiyan promised.

“Why would I be kidnapped? Why should I live under such apprehension? I don’t even have the slightest bit of freedom. I’m being guarded by your people at home. I’m still guarded when I’m outside. Is there any difference from being kidnapped?” The more Liu Yan spoke, the more aggrieved she got.

“You’re my woman and Bao is my son. They’re not guarding you. They’re protecting you.”

“Really? They’re reporting everything I do to you. Is this what you mean by protecting? I have no freedom of action! If one has to live a so-called free life being imprisoned, it’s better to die.”

A sharp and bitingly cold glint flashed across Shen Yiyan’s eyes and he held Liu Yan’s shoulders tightly. “What did you say? Say it again.”

The hostile air emanating from him was so horrifying that it was even more dreadful than death.

Liu Yan bit her lip tightly and squeezed her fists. Her grip was so stiff that her nails dug deep into her palms.

Can I really die?

I can’t!

If I die, Shen Yiyan would never save Wu Nian.

She was just being aggressive and exaggerated a little.

However, spoken words were like spilled milk. One could never unsay it.

“I want to make a trip.” Liu Yan lowered her head. Eventually, she was too upset by the fact that she couldn’t even speak what was really in her mind and the tears rolled down her cheeks.

Seeing that she was crying, Shen Yiyan’s heart softened and he wiped her tears away with his thumb. His voice became very gentle as he said, “Why are you still behaving like a child? You are already the mother of my son.”

“And you’re the commander-in-chief of a country who should be on an official visit to Moranta but here you are, coming to capture me in the blink of an eye.” Liu Yan wiped off her own tears swiftly.

“So, does it mean that you were taking advantage of my absence to escape?” Shen Yiyan narrowed his eyes and scrutinized her.

She did not deny but asked in return, “If you’re in the country, would you have allowed me to go overseas?”

Shen Yiyan smiled and answered unquestionably, “Of course not.”

Liu Yan did not want to look at his complacent face. She was afraid that if she took another glance, her fist would move ahead of her brain. Thus, she turned her back on him.

Looking at the back of her head, Shen Yiyan asked, “Did you really just want to a little trip and not running away?”

“First of all, if I did plan to run away, I wouldn’t have used my own passport for sure. I would never give you any chance of finding me and knowing my whereabouts. Secondly, Bai still needs you to cure her disease. I’m not someone who reneges on my own promise,” Liu Yan said without looking back.

Listening to her words, Shen Yiyan’s heart skipped a beat. His dark eyes turned grimmer, as though a scar was hidden underneath them.

He would go crazy if he failed to find Liu Yan.

“Don’t say that I’m not giving you any chance. Now, turn around and look at me,” Shen Yiyan said with a deep voice.

Liu Yan turned around and gazed at him.

“I’ll give you a task. If you manage to complete it, I’ll let you go on a trip with your best friend and I’ll reimburse you for your traveling expenses,” Shen Yiyan uttered.

“What task?” Liu Yan was hopeful again.

“There will be an auction on the day after tomorrow. I want you to acquire an oil painting known as Dream Girl with a bidding price ranging from a million to eight million. I’ll give you ten million and you can utilize the remaining two million to bid anything you want.”

Liu Yan didn’t believe that Shen Yiyan was so kind. “What is the starting bid amount for the oil painting? And let me make it clear. Even if I can’t acquire it, you’re not allowed to have other requests as well.”

“The starting bid should be around five hundred thousand.” Shen Yiyan lifted the corner of his lips into a vicious grin and there was a sexy air wafting from within him. “Even your body belongs to me so what kind of requests do you think I’ll have?”

Liu Yan sensed the gravely dangerous glint in Shen Yiyan’s eyes. “Wu Nian is still outside. I’m going to find her.”

Just as her hand touched the handle on the door, Shen Yiyan held her hand and pulled her into his arms. “Aren’t you blaming me for not spending time with you? My time for today and tomorrow is all yours now.”

When have I ever blamed him for not spending time with me? I dreadfully wish that he’ll never have the time to bother me.

“Go away. It’s too hot in here.” Liu Yan pushed him away.

However, Shen Yiyan tightened his grasp. “In order to come and find you, I’ve turned down the kindness of the Monarch of Moranta. He was going to present me with ten beauties. Aren’t you going to reward me for turning such an offer down?”

“Oh, yes. Please return to Moranta immediately and accept the Monarch’s gift to you,” Liu Yan returned bluntly.

As soon as she finished her words, Shen Yiyan drooped his head and covered her lips with his.

There was a text message on his phone which read: Su Xuyan and Gu Mingchen would all be present at the auction. Both of them are determined to get Dream Girl.
