AGMATSWHLMAR Chapter 56
by VolareAt the very beginning of this marriage, he had no right to choose; Auston was his last resort.
But now, he has already identified with him.
“What the hell do you want?” Auston was so agitated he wanted to curse.
Ruan Tang, however, showed not a trace of fear and directly tore the divorce agreement, which was so favorable to him, into pieces. “Unless I die, I will not agree to a divorce.”
Unless Auston killed him, even if he was the weaker party in this marital power dynamic, he would never agree to a divorce.
“Are you out of your mind?” Auston blurted out.
Ruan Tang went all out and confessed to Auston again, “Your Grace, I like you.”
Faced with this omega who he wanted to reason with, but who kept spouting shameless words of affection, Auston felt extremely uncomfortable. He felt awkward all over and wished he could sew up the loose-lipped omega’s mouth.
“I know you’re blind, you don’t need to repeat it,” he said, his anger turning into embarrassment, coldly mocking.
From Shen Mozhi to Zhou Yao, and now himself… Auston really didn’t feel it was an honor to be liked by this omega. He just felt Ruan Tang was incredibly blind.
“Your Grace, I don’t know what exactly you’re running away from,” Ruan Tang said, gripping his hand even tighter, not giving him a chance to escape. “But I like you. You’re the first person I’ve ever liked, the person I want to spend my life with. I think you like me too, so I won’t let go…”
He had seen too many two-faced people, so Ruan Tang wasn’t hurt or blamed by Auston’s harsh words. Instead, he wanted to understand why Auston was unwilling to be with him.
“Shut your mouth! Stop talking nonsense here!” Auston couldn’t listen any longer. He felt goosebumps rising all over his body from the mushy words and just wanted to shake Ruan Tang off. But afraid of hurting him, he could only shout at him angrily.
Seeing Auston’s embarrassed and angry appearance, Ruan Tang completely disregarded his pride and no longer knew what ’embarrassment’ meant. He grabbed Auston and spoke even more vigorously, “How can liking someone be nonsense? I just like you, Your Grace.”
As an omega, he had never taken the initiative to pursue someone, but if the object was Auston, Ruan Tang didn’t mind pursuing him.
“You don’t even know what I look like, what are you liking?” Auston’s entire face under the mask turned red, but it was completely covered by the mask. He rebuked Ruan Tang angrily.
He just felt this omega’s affection was extremely superficial.
“Liking someone is an attraction between souls and has nothing to do with what they look like… Your Grace, since you don’t like me, then let me pursue you.” Ruan Tang looked at the alpha in front of him, his whole body exuding vibrant energy, and his eyes lit up with starlight.
Auston took a deep breath and threw Ruan Tang’s hand away. “Pursue? You’re chasing a ghost. Give up on that. I’m telling you, you won’t catch me!”
“I’m the alpha you can never get in your entire life,” he thought for a moment, adding another sentence after his words.
Although he threw Ruan Tang off, he controlled his strength perfectly, not at all like the usual beast going crazy. Instead, it was like a cat retracting its claws and gently waving its paw pads, trying to startle someone away…
“Okay, I just like to challenge the impossible.” Ruan Tang completely let go of himself, throwing caution to the wind. “Your Grace, one day, I will make you willingly take off your mask and actively ask to be my alpha.”
After letting go of himself, Ruan Tang completely abandoned the restraint of an omega and felt that it was perfectly normal for a man to shamelessly pursue the person he loved.
And Auston’s coy attitude gave him some confidence…
He knew Auston was unwilling to take off his mask in front of him and unwilling to expose his pheromone scent in front of him. This was a barrier between them, but Ruan Tang was confident that one day he could make this barrier disappear and become the most intimate existence with Auston in this world.
Auston was too special to him. He appeared at just the right time, and from the moment he appeared, he had become Ruan Tang’s only choice.
Even without knowing his appearance and pheromone scent, Ruan Tang still wanted to obtain him.
“Okay, like it if you like it.” Auston was so annoyed by him that he couldn’t drive him away. He immediately fed him a big bowl of chicken soup. “Why can’t you just quietly like someone? Why do you have to say it and get them? Truly liking someone means hoping they are happy and blessed, not having to have a result, possess and obtain them… This isn’t true love at all. It’s just a temporary infatuation.”
This was Auston’s deep-seated view of love.
From this, it could be seen that Ruan Tang’s affection for him was not true love at all, but just possessiveness.
Ruan Tang listened to his chicken soup-like love theory and suddenly laughed.
The reason was simple: Auston’s love theory was too good, too perfect, so good that it could be written into textbooks, making people feel that this was the ideal model of true love, without any of his own selfish desires, only wholeheartedly considering the person he loved… In fact, it was very good, very reasonable…
Anyone in this world could say this theory, and it would be very normal, only when it came from Auston’s mouth did it seem particularly inexplicable and strange.
Because Auston’s impression was completely the opposite of someone who would say such a thing…
But Ruan Tang, looking at him in front of him, felt that he might have caught another glimpse of Auston’s inner world.
Under his fierce appearance, he might actually be a particularly gentle and kind person, and his concept of love, in this complicated and vulgar world, was so holy that it was unbelievable.
“Your Grace, I’m different from you. I’m just a particularly vulgar person. In my view, liking someone and wanting to possess them are interrelated…” Ruan Tang said, word by word, “I like someone, and I want to get them. I don’t want to just silently watch them be happy and satisfied.”
He looked deeply at Auston and said bluntly, “So, please be prepared to either kill me or be obtained by me.”
Auston neither wanted to kill him nor be obtained by him. He was speechless, his patience exhausted. He grabbed a cup from the bedside table and smashed it hard on the ground, scolding, “I don’t want to hear you talk about these messy things. Get out!”
Ruan Tang was intimidated by him but was still exceptionally excited because he had finally confessed his love. Seeing Auston on the verge of rage, he knew when to stop.
Looking at the broken pieces of the cup on the ground, he smiled at Auston, “Your Grace, your temper is so bad. It’s actually not good. Getting angry hurts the liver. Change it.”
After saying that, he immediately hugged his “One Thousand and One Nights” and happily left Auston’s room, not forgetting to close the door for him as he left.
Auston looked at his departing back and felt himself becoming more and more irritable. His whole body was stimulated by the sudden excitement that Ruan Tang had just left behind, the strong pheromone scent with obvious courtship intentions that still lingered in the air, burning like fire, and an inexplicable heat lingered for a long time. He only felt that his cheeks hidden under the mask were hot…
Suddenly thinking of something, Auston almost couldn’t help laughing, but as he laughed, he suddenly frowned, his forehead veins bulging, revealing an obvious look of irritability and pain…
Auston immediately knew that he was having another attack. He immediately pressed a bell in his room.
At night, Kyle, the personal manservant on night duty, immediately opened the door to his room with the medicine, asking worriedly, “Your Grace, is your illness acting up again?”
Although there were many spies planted by others around Auston, there were also many of his own people.
The Kyle in front of him was Auston’s confidant hidden among a group of servants.
Auston didn’t speak. He quickly took the medicine from his hand, swallowed it with water, and after a long time, until the surge passed, the painful and ferocious look on his face eased slightly. He responded in a low voice, “Yes… My illness has indeed been acting up more frequently recently.”
“Your Grace, your illness can’t be delayed any longer like this. You must have mental counseling…” Kyle looked at him with great concern.
Auston had been suffering from mental sea disorders caused by migraine headaches for more than a day or two. The doctor said the best way was to find an omega with a high pheromone compatibility with Auston to channel his mental power.
Everyone around Auston was urging him to do so, but Auston insisted on refusing.
Auston knew what he meant and didn’t speak, his face somber.
Kyle tentatively said, “Your Grace, actually, the madam has a very high pheromone compatibility with you, as high as 95%. You aren’t repulsed by the madam’s pheromones either… Perhaps, you can tell the madam everything and let him try.”
Although Auston was an utter madman in the eyes of the world, a depraved Bluebeard, in the eyes of subordinates who truly understood Auston, he was the most gentle and upright person, only he concealed all his beauty under a mask of madness.
He had killed countless people and was cruel and violent to many, but he had never truly harmed an innocent person.
With his power, if he was ruthless and didn’t care about other people’s lives, he could have countless omegas to treat him, dying one after another… But because he didn’t want to hurt the innocent and was afraid that he couldn’t control himself when he was having an attack, he insisted on refusing, only willing to endure the great pain of taking medicine to suppress his condition…
The Empress had once taken advantage of his attack to stuff several omegas into him in order to obtain an heir. Later, those omegas all went crazy. Everyone said Auston was cruel and tortured those omegas to madness, but in fact, when Auston was delirious during his attack, if he hadn’t tried his best to control himself and drive those omegas out… I’m afraid those omegas would have been more than just crazy, they would have all died a complete death.
Kyle felt wronged for Auston from the bottom of his heart.
