His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 66: I am cursed to live like this

Wu Yixing watches his wife pace around in their bedroom in anger. She stops and glares at him. Then, she resumes her strolls around the room. She stops again and looks at him like she wants to bury him at the spot. She clenches her fists and crosses her arms.

He is amused to see her like this. It's only been 2 days since their wedding. He finds her expressions more interesting than poisons. "Mo Qian, those fake balls on your chest moves up and down like a real thing when you walk like this."

Yoori stops on her feet and crosses her arms over her chest. Here, it comes. "Wu Yixing, you pervert!"

"Tell me what you used." Wu Yixing asks her with a serious face. "I will sell the idea to the men who want to dress up like women. We will make a lot of money."

Her body is shaking in anger. She takes long strides toward him and tries to throw a punch on his face. Wu Yixing dodges easily. He grabs her arms and pushes her down on the bed.

"Mo Qian, you look more beautiful when you are angry." He presses her beneath him. "I told you that I like men like you. I won't be able to resist if you keep showing that expression to me."

Wu Yixing sees her cheek turn rosy. His face moves closer and inhales his warm scent.

"Creep!" She wiggles beneath him. "I am a man who likes women. I won't be eaten by another man."

"Fine." He grins at her. "I will not eat you yet. If you want a woman, I can take you to the flower houses. What type of woman do you like? It's the least that I can do for you."

Poor Yoori feels like her one leg is in the gutter and another leg is in poop. "I don't like those places. I want to do this with someone I love. You won't understand."

Love. He looks into her dark eyes. Love is the reason why his mother died.

He moves away from her and yawns. "I want to sleep. It was a tiring day."

Yoori is surprised that he let go of her this easily. "Why aren't you going to your room?"

"This is my room." He lays down on the bed and turns his back to her. "I will send you to your courtyard tomorrow. Sleep here for the time being."

Strange. He is behaving himself.

Not trusting him, Yoori keeps a distance from him on the bed. It doesn't take her long to fall asleep.

The witch grumbles to herself. Li Jun can't understand her language. Is she casting a spell? She is cute when she is angry.

"What's your real name?" He asks her. "I know that it is not Mo Wei. You are the witch who warned my father about the assassination attempt."

She finally looks at him. "You were good at acting. It's no wonder that your reincarnation will become an actor in the future."

"My reincarnation will be an actor?" He raises his brow. He finds that ridiculous. "You can see the future?"

She turns her head away. "No."

He lets it go. This witch and her secrets. "How did you get poisoned?"

"It's not poison. I am cursed to live like this."

It gives him heartache to see such sorrow in her eyes. He doesn't prod her more. The carriage stops in front of the main gate of the Li residence. It's already dark.

"The Li family owes you." He offers his hand to her. "Stay with us as long as you wish to. Think that it's your home."

She doesn't take his outstretched hand and smiles playfully. "I won't forget that I am a hostage."

When Kwon Yoori wakes up, she finds Wu Yixing gone. She stares at the empty spot. It's cold. He must have left early. Her niece would trust a man like him to cure the poison. Yoori realizes that she never asked her niece whether she also liked Wu Yixing in the original timeline.

It doesn't matter. Things are not happening the same way in this lifetime. Wu Yixing doesn't know that she is a woman. That doesn't bother him much though. He teases her endlessly. She looks down at her chest. He really thinks that they are fake. Tch! Idiot.

He is a popular playboy of this era. Is it not similar to rich spoiled chaebol playboys of her time? Hasn't he been with enough women to know what's fake and what's real?

There is no way that she would like a man who poisoned her and can't differentiate between real and fake assets of a woman.

"Lady." A servant girl peeks in. She's around 17. This girl has been following her around since Yoori came here. "Are you awake?"

Yoori sighs. She is never getting used to having servants. "Xiao Luo, come inside. I am awake."

Xiao Luo helps her clean her face. "Lady Feng, Master instructed us to show you the empty courtyards. You can choose any that you like."

"I choose the one that's most far from this one."

"That... " Xiao Luo has been instructed to accept her words without any question. She hesitates before she says, "Young lady, it takes more than an hour to walk to that courtyard."

"That's wonderful." Yoori wonders how large this residence is. Nevertheless, she would like it if it's far. That way, she won't be seeing Wu Yixing much. "Take me there right away."
