The Bullet Comments Say I'll Die, I'll Act Out to Perfection - Chapter 3

Chapter 3

I set my phone to silent.

I stopped checking his itinerary every day.

I no longer called him twenty-four hours a day, regardless of the occasion.

Even when he approached me, I would subconsciously step away.

Occasionally, he would come home from social events with his coat carrying the faint, lingering scent of some other Omega.

In the past, I would have exploded.

I would have rushed up to him and caused a scene that turned the world upside down.

But now, I just calmly pretended I didn’t smell a thing.

I stopped nagging him to come home.

In fact, I started coming home later and later myself.

Several times, when I pushed the door open, he had already finished cooking and was sitting at the table waiting.

I looked at the dishes beside him and deliberately slowed my tone:

“You don’t need to rush back… I already ate my fill with someone else while I was out.”

I reached out and rubbed my lower back.

I wasn’t sure if today’s shopping trip had worn me out, but my back was sore and my legs ached.

As soon as the words left my mouth, the bowl in Pei Yuheng’s hand suddenly slipped.

The porcelain shattered, shards exploding all over the floor.

I almost blurted out a sarcastic remark asking if he was getting too old for this.

But a second later, I caught myself and forced the words back down.

I crouched down, preparing to clean up the mess.

However, Pei Yuheng suddenly grabbed my wrist and pulled me back up.

His deep eyes were swirling with emotions I couldn’t understand.

It looked like sadness, or maybe… panic?

His voice was hoarse when he spoke:

“He can satisfy you?”

I nodded. “Yeah.”

With everything on my mind lately, even the friends I ate with said my appetite had shrunk quite a bit.

Pei Yuheng’s eyes suddenly turned red, and he took a step toward me.

“Lately, you haven’t been checking up on me, you haven’t been controlling me, you won’t even let me touch you… It’s all because of him, isn’t it?”

“Is the next step him telling you to divorce me?”

I instinctively retorted:

“He’s not that kind of person.”

Jiang Hao might be a big talker who loved gossip, but he would never interfere in someone else’s marriage.

To my surprise, Pei Yuheng’s face turned even paler.

“You’re actually defending him like that…”

His fingers tightened, squeezing my wrist until the bone ached.

He lowered his eyes, his lashes half-shadowing his pupils with an indescribable coldness.

“You want a divorce? In your dreams!”

“He’ll never see the light of day as long as he lives!”

It took me a moment to realize what was happening.

Was Pei Yuheng misunderstanding something?

Just as I was about to explain, a dense wall of bullet comments suddenly drifted across my vision:

[Help, why does the Male Lead’s reaction look like jealousy? He couldn’t actually be catching feelings for the substitute, could he?]

[No way! This drama queen is just a low-quality imitation. He can’t even compare to a single hair on the original’s head!]

[So calculating. To manipulate the Male Lead, he even made up a fake love rival.]

[Men are like that. Even if they don’t love someone, they can’t stand being cheated on. It’s purely a possessive streak.]

[He won’t be smug for long, though. The True Young Master has already returned to the country! A substitute should have the self-awareness of a substitute and get lost already!]

[Exactly. A fake like him thinks he’s worthy of playing tricks? Just wait for his downfall!]

…

The comments before my eyes grew more eyesore and more vicious with every line.

As I read them, my blood pressure spiked, and my rationality snapped instantly.

I violently shook off Pei Yuheng’s hand.

I screamed at the space in front of me:

“Get lost!”

His grip loosened, and he froze for half a second.

Then, a dark, violent aura surged in his eyes.

In the next instant, I was hoisted onto his shoulder.

He kicked open the bedroom door.

He threw me onto the bed and pressed down over me.

A heavy Alpha scent descended like a suffocating net, pinning me down completely.

He lowered his head and bit into my lips, his movements rough.

“Xu Xu, even if you beg me tonight, I won’t stop.”
