Chapter 102: Come to Think of It... Should I Let Lin Wei Know I'm the Pope?
👹
“Lin Wei~ Are you awake yet?”
“More or less. But seriously, what got into you last night, woman? Were you possessed or something?!”
The imperial capital’s streets, usually alive with the clamor of early risers, felt strangely hushed in the morning light. The stillness only accentuated the contrast, as if the entire city were holding its breath.
Lin Wei looked down at his wife, her cheek still pressed against him, eyes half-lidded with sleep, her expression languid and content. He rubbed his aching waist, the memories of the previous night sending a faint shiver through him—if he was honest, it was a little terrifying.
Not that he’d lost, of course. Absolutely not. But the way Veya had pressed him, relentless in her pursuit of answers, biting her lip and refusing to yield until the very end… He’d genuinely worried she might faint before she gave in.
That was the only reason he’d surrendered—he couldn’t bear to push her any further. It had nothing to do with six hours being his limit. Certainly not!
If he’d truly gone all out, he could have left her senseless for days, easily!
