Lu Yifeng’s eyes became cold and Little Melon started pouting again.

  She sighed when she saw the looks on their faces. Can they stop making her feel so guilty? "He’s just a friend. Come on, let’s just eat already."

  The two boys before her continued looking at her which made her uneasy.

  "Momma, no no to other men, Momma promised." Little Melon crossed his arms. "Only Dada."

  Lu Yifeng nodded in agreement. Little Melon was really his son, there’s no doubt about that.

  "Yes, yes." She sighed in defeat. "Now could we please have our dinner peacefully?"

  "I want to talk with you after this." Lu Yifeng said before he started eating.

  "Mello wants to talk to Momma too, but Mello will allow Dada to talk to Momma first." Little Melon followed his father’s actions by picking up his chopsticks.

  The two of them started eating in sync and Xia Meilin couldn’t help but get nervous. Why do they want to talk to her?

  After dinner, Little Melon was taken to his playroom by Mo Jing while Xia Meilin and Lu Yifeng went to his study room.

  As soon as they entered the study room, Lu Yifeng asked, "Who is he?"

  "Feng Ning, my childhood friend." She answered without any hesitation since she didn’t want to make the matter worse. Besides, Lu Yifeng won’t know that he was actually her first love.

  Lu Yifeng’s eyes darkened. It was because of that man that Xia Meilin tried leaving him a couple of times in his previous life. It was because of him that Xia Meilin couldn’t love him. He knew very well that Feng Ning was her first love and the man that she will always love.

  He was her childhood friend and she loved him for so many years. He was the reason why Xia Meilin refused to date other men. She stayed single and waited for him to come back. If the incident between Lu Yifeng and Xia Meilin didn’t happen, she could have dated and married Feng Ning already.

  After finally learning about his hideout in his past life, Lu Yifeng could only order his brother to kill him. Lu Yifeng’s whole body was full of jealousy towards this man. Lu Yifeng envied Feng Ning because of Xia Meilin’s continuous love and affection for him over the years.

  He clenched his fists and tried containing the anger that welled up in his chest. He never liked that man, he never will. "You are not allowed to meet him on Wednesday."

  Lu Yifeng was afraid, afraid that the moment she met Feng Ning, she would be stolen by him.

  She furrowed her brows when she heard what he said. He can order her around! "I’m just going to pick him up. It’s been so long since I last saw my childhood friend so why can’t I go?"

  The air in the room dropped and Xia Meilin felt a chill run down her spine.

  "If I said no, it’s a no. That’s final."

  This time, Xia Meilin was able to see the part most people described when she saw the way he looked at her, cold and aloof. He was a scary person that one should not try to cross.

  "You don’t have the right to decide things for me!" She wouldn’t back off. She has the right to make her own decisions. She will not allow him to threaten her again.

  Seeing that Xia Meilin was standing up for that man just how she did back then, it made Lu Yifeng crazy mad.

  He took a step closer to her as he looked at her with a menacing glare. "You will listen to me. You are only allowed to be with me."

  Xia Meilin wanted to hide but her dignity and pride wouldn’t allow her to do so. She stood her ground as she looked at him straight in the eyes. "Listen to you? Be with you? You cannot control me, Lu Yifeng. I have the right to do whatever I want! I never wanted this marriage in the first place! You’re the one who threatened me to marry you! I have the right to love whoever I want!"

  When he heard her words, something inside him snapped. He grabbed her chin and squeezed it tight which made her flinch from the pain. "You’re mine, do you understand? Mine!"

  "I’m not yours!" She growled. "I am not an object that-

  She was cut off when he kissed her lips hard. Xia Meilin tried to push him away but he was too strong for her. This time, fear filled her whole body. "N…… No!"

  She was cornered against the door and her wrists were pinned against it.

  Xia Meilin could feel the tip of his tongue intruding her mouth. She tried struggling again but he wouldn’t budge. Then he ripped off her shirt and moved his kisses to her neck, biting and marking her before he moved his kisses to her chest.

  She bursts out in tears when she thought that he was going to **** her again, she cried and begged, "Please…… Lu Yifeng…… Please don’t do this……"

  Hearing her broken voice made him snap out and pull away. He saw her wet face and eyes filled with fear, her body was shivering as she covered her chest.

  "M…… Meilin……" He tried reaching out to her but she shrank back in fear.

  He clenched his fists and turned away. He lost control…… he couldn’t believe that he lost control of himself……

  "GET OUT!" He shouted in anger. He didn’t want her to be in the same room as him in fear that he might completely lose it.

  His loud voice that resounded throughout the room made her more afraid of him, she thought that he was mad. This time, she hurriedly went out of his room and ran to her room, crying.

  He walked and kicked his table in anger before he covered his face with his palms. Just like that, he lost control. He told himself that he would not make the same mistake, he would not force her or make her cry, but this time…… he wasn’t able to control his temper. He was so angry, angry at himself for allowing his temper to get ahead of himself.
