Chapter 139: Fairy Tale – He Has a Little Grey Wolf (64)

Leader behind her froze for a moment. His expression quickly darkened. His brows were filled with cruelty, yet the words he spoke were pitiful.

“Asi, they bullied you.”
“I almost lost you.”

The broken voice came from behind, and Leader seemed to be crying. Asi’s shoulder was slightly damp.

“Asi... do you hate me now?”
“Please don’t hate me...”

The boy sobbed miserably. Asi wanted to turn away, but Leader held her tightly in his arms.

“Leader, I don’t.” Asi hurriedly explained.
How could she hate Leader?
She might dislike others, but never Leader.

“Leader, I was just asking. I like you.”

Leader buried his face in Asi’s neck, breathing in her scent fiercely. Yet the corners of his mouth curled into a smile. Those deep indigo eyes no longer held the purity of their first meeting; instead, they were filled with menace.

“I don’t believe you...”

How could he trust her?
She had clearly smiled at someone else just moments ago.

Leader couldn’t bear to imagine how many others Asi had flashed that radiant smile to during the days she was away from him.
Just the thought made him wish to destroy the entire world.

—

Asi had originally been standing on the street with Leader.

—

Leader held her, sobbing with a grievance that tugged at the heart.
No matter what Asi said, Leader contradicted her, until finally she fell silent.

Let him cry then.
Hmph, everyone has their little tantrums.

Then—
Leader suddenly teleported them home.

“Asi, I was wrong. Please put it on, okay?”

There wasn’t a single tear on Leader’s face. Not one drop—it was all a ruse.

Asi turned her head away, refusing to look at him. Yet from the corner of her eye, she glanced at the garment in his hands: a bright red robe.

Asi pursed her lips.
She wasn’t a fool; that was clearly a wedding dress.
The kind one wore at a marriage ceremony.

What did it mean that Leader wanted her to wear it?

But Leader persisted, begging her earnestly in front of her.
His dark blue eyes seemed filled with tears, ready to spill if Asi uttered a single “no.”

The young girl pursed her lips, then looked at the scarlet robe Leader wore, frowning.

“Why is it red?” she asked clearly, pointing at his robe. “Why is yours red too?”

Leader was momentarily stunned.
His expression suddenly softened.

—

The red dress in Asi’s hands was studded with jewels.
One by one, they adorned the fluffy hem.
The collar bore intricate embroidery that extended all the way down the sleeve.
It resembled wedding attire she had seen before but had distinct differences.

“Because...”

Leader paused briefly.
Then smiled, “Asi, can you please put it on first?”

Outside, dusk was slowly falling.

Asi nodded.
She hugged the dress and pouted, “You can’t be mean to me anymore.”

Leader replied, “I haven’t been mean to you, have I?”

Asi pressed her lips together, “Then you’re not allowed to throw unreasonable tantrums anymore.”

Leader blinked and nodded.

Only then was Asi satisfied, clutching the dress as she went inside to change.

Leader was truly considerate—the dress had a special place for Asi’s wolf tail to come through.

Wearing the new dress, Asi looked even more exquisite.
The bright red garment made her pale skin appear even fairer.
Her tail wagged behind her, swaying nonstop.
