Chapter 35 - Condition for Obedience

Back in the car, Jennet held the steering wheel tightly. Her heart was burning so badly and she just can't stop the fury within her.

"What you did earlier was totally and very rude! Do you know it? It was rude!" She complains and glared at him while saying her mind out loud.

Hue ignored her and looked out of the window. He was looking so smug while pouting.

"Humph!" He grunted in his seat.

Hearing him grunt made Jennet fumed even more with anger.

She turned her head towards him, "Don't you go grunting at my complaint. I was talking to an elder and yet you kept honking. Did you not know that honking is very rude? She got the wrong impression of me now. Did you know that?"

Hue glanced at her and said, "No, I did not know that." He looked away again, pouting but at the same time looking so proud that he didn't know of such things. Why would he care for such things?

Jennet gritted her teeth. This grown-up baby was really thick headed and he had the nerve to talk back at her. Fine, he will get his punishment now!

She pulled the car over to the roadside. Then, she unbuckled the seatbelt before she turned over towards him. Glaring furiously, she grabbed his hand and bit on it as hard as she could.

A desperate scream filled the car before it was turned into a soft sobbing shortly after that.

"Wife, what have I done wrong?" Hue sobbed. He rubbed his hand that was now stamp with deep bite marks.

Tears were all over his face as he dug himself even deeper in his seat to seek protection from her punishment.

Jennet sat back and put on her seatbelt again. She inhaled a deep breath. She was finally satisfied after releasing all her anger.

Serve him right! If nobody had ever taught him of such a basic manner of respect, she would teach him.

Turning her head towards him, she said, "Keep your mouth shut. If you dare to be rude again, I will punish you even severely." She warned him with a stern voice.

"I didn't do anything wrong. I have always been your husband but you said the opposite to her. You are the one who is wrong." He cried and stomped his feet underneath.

Jennet widened her eyes at him. Still acting baby now even in the public? Are you trying to break my car?

"Just cry all you want. It's not like I care a bit about you crying your heart out because I am still upset about your rude manners!" She said coldly and looked away from him while fastening her seatbelt.

Hue sobbed even harder in his seat but Jennet ignored him and started to drive again towards their next destination. All along the way she just ignored him no matter how he tugged her sleeve for attention. She just gave her full attention towards the road while humming to herself.

'He's a baby and he cries. He's a baby and he cries. His cries will stop when he's tired. Yes, he's a baby and he will stop crying soon.' She kept repeating the word in her mind to distract her attention from him.

She took out the earphones and plugged her ears and played music from her phone, totally ignoring the crying man beside her who was getting even sadder by the minutes.

They arrived at a supermarket after forty-five minutes drive. She parked the car nicely at the parking area and it was away from crowded places. She wanted to lessen the hassle of witnessing another fainting drama.

When she finally pulled out the earphones, she found Hue was already fast asleep beside her.

'Oh, he's asleep!' She thought.

His head fell to the side in his seat. His eyes were still wet from his excessive crying. He had his arms wrapped around his chest.

She glanced around, making sure the parking area was not crowded. Luckily, the area had fewer people than the parking area at the shopping mall.

Then, she stared at him sleeping soundly beside her. 'Ahh, he looked like a cute little baby after a throwing a fit over his meal!'

She smiled but a sudden feeling of guilt stabbed her heart while looking at his pitiful yet adorable face.

She looked at him from top to bottom once again. Hue was looking so handsome by the minutes. The more she stared at him, the more sparkly he became in her eyes.

If he's not too clingy and a crybaby, he would be the most perfect and cool man that she had ever encountered in her life. Well, him, being spoilt, was not that bad but he's just too pervert and she just can't stand it.

She had never encountered a man as pervert as him in her life and he kept calling her as his wife. She knew it was hopeless to fight with him over the matter but she really hopes he can understand their situation. He may claim they are married but she couldn't accept it because she didn't know how they're married to each other in the first place.

Jennet inhaled a deep breath. 'Well, let him sleep. I won't take a risk like what had happened at the mall.'

She unfastened her seatbelt and stepped out from the car. The moment she stepped out, Hue jerked awake from his little sleep. He hurriedly stepped out while rubbing his eyes.

"Don't leave me!" He said and slammed the door shut behind him. He ran after her but the sourness on his face did not fade even a bit.

Jennet halted and turned at him. "I thought you're sleeping." She said. She looked into the red eyes that were a bit swollen.

Hue pouted and answered, "I was and now I'm awake."

He immediately grabbed her hand and held them tightly. "Let's go." He said.

But, Jennet stopped him by pulling him back to her side. She does not know how he's feeling but she wanted to make sure he won't create anymore scene in the supermarket later on.

She looked at him and asked softly, "Are you still angry?"

Hue glared at her. He grunted softly.

"I am!" He answered.

"Well then, you have to wait in the car." She said calmly.

"Why?" He asked. His face became even sourer.

"Because you're still angry. I don't like to shop with an angry person. It can ruin my mood." She explained.

She pointed towards the car while cocking her head to the side, gesturing him to step back into the car.

"I am not angry." Said Hue, changing his answer.

Jennet stared at him. Hue was trying to give her a smile but he couldn't help showing his sour face to her.

Jennet burst into a soft chuckle. He's so cute!

She couldn't ignore him if he kept looking so adorable like that. Even seeing him trying to give her a plastic smile was even hilarious.

"Are you sure you're not angry because I can see you are lying."

"I am not angry," Hue repeated his answer. He tugged her hand to walk along with him.

But, Jennet tugged him back instead. "You must not follow me. You can harm people around us." She explained.

Hue shook his head. "Don't worry. They won't die. Let's go!" He tugged her again.

"Wait a minute, Hue," She stopped him. "I mean it." She added.

Hue grunted. He looked around them. He gazed at her and said, "Call me hubby then I will be obedient." He stated a condition.

Jennet frowned but then she laughed. "What are you even talking about now?"

Hue pulled a long face again at her. "I really mean it as well. Call me hubby and I will be obedient." He said with a face full of determination.

Jennet stopped laughing. She stared at him. "Are you being serious right now?"

Hue nodded his head. Yes, I am serious!

Jennet clicked her tongue. "Nah, you're clearly still angry." She would not believe him. Furthermore, he's full of sly tricks to trap her with his innocence.

"I really mean it. If you don't believe me then, let's go in and harm people around." He pulled her hand.

Again, Jennet pulled him back. "Okay. I believe you!"

If he seriously wanted to go in, who knows what his charm could do to all the innocent lives in the supermarket. If people started to give her things for free because of him, her heart won't be able to settle down because of the shock. Even worse if they are being hospitalized after looking at him, it really made her uncomfortable.

Hue smiled. "Call me hubby and then give me a kiss." He said adding one more condition to what he had said.

Hearing him adding more to the condition, made Jennet rolled her eyes at him. He's clearly trying to take advantage of her in her desperate situation as usual!
