Rebirth in the Apocalypse: Third Time's a Charm

"Our wife has a city of her own, Elysian City, back in City J, a ranch that is controlled by her up by City A and has recently taken over an underground fight club. I don't think it is that unbelievable that you have claimed City I for yourself," shrugged Liu Wei.

"A fight club? Was that the one previously owned by Lin Song?" Hao Jing Ya asked as the air around her changed. When she first came in, she seemed to be every bit of the submissive wife that most would assume her to be, especially with such a large age gap between her and her husband. But now, now it was easy to see that she had the power and ability to control an entire city. 

Wang Chao and Liu Wei turned to look at Mao Jing for confirmation. All that they had been told was that Li Dai Lu had taken over the club where Liu Yu Zeng was supposed to fight at. She wanted everyone together, so they dropped what they were doing and went to her. 

"It is," confirmed Mao Jing, not actually sure what was going on, but not willing to contradict Wang Chao without knowing all the facts first.

"I would like to meet her," said Hao Jing Ya, leaning back against the couch. Once again, her husband flinched at her sudden movement. It was easy to see who actually wore the pants in that relationship. "Bring her here."

Wang Chao dropped his chin and started to chuckle. "Not happening," he said with a smile as he raised his head and looked at the woman. 

"Excuse me?" said Hao Jing Ya, taken back. She thought that the men in front of her were intelligent enough to know when to bow their heads. But it looked like Wang Chao's wife was the leader in name only. 

"Our wife doesn't dance to anyone's tune. You want to meet her, you can go to her," explained Liu Wei with a smile of his own. 

"Our wife? You two share a wife?" sneered Hao Jing Ya, no longer as impressed with the other woman as she originally was. No self-respecting woman would ever be willing to be passed back and forth between two men. They probably had all the control, and she just barked when they told her to.

"I would be very careful with those lines of thoughts," growled Wang Chao, coming to his feet and looming over the woman. "I will not allow that type of disrespect when it comes to my wife. Do I make myself perfectly clear?"

Hao Jing Ya didn't bother to respond and only raised her chin. "What?" demanded Wang Chao, pushing his way through the woman's weak mental barriers. "You want to bark like a dog? Then bark!" he commanded, and Hao Jing Ya tried to keep her mouth closed, her teeth clenching so hard that she was scared that she might break them. But as soon as she loosened her muscles a fraction, she found herself letting out two sharp barks.

"Our wife is our Queen. No one will be disrespecting her and living long. Do I make myself clear?" pushed Wang Chao, forcing his will even further onto Hao Jing Zhi. 

"Sorry," she got out through gritted teeth. She hadn't realized just how strong the man in front of her was. She had assumed that because they claimed that their wife was in charge, they would be around the same lines as her husband. Strong in front of other people but knowing where the true power lay.

She had made a mistake, but she would not make it again. However, she still needed to get their wife out of her territory—

But the second the thought entered her head, there was a sharp, stabbing pain in her temples. 

"You don't learn, do you?" chuckled Wang Chao, causing another bolt of pain inside her head. She refused to shout out in pain, instead choosing to clench her hands on top of his lap. Pain was nothing. It lasted no more than a second or moment in time. Humiliation of having to submit to a man because of pain, however, lasted a lifetime.

"What are you?" she asked as soon as the pain let up and she could open her mouth without a scream escaping.

"The technical term is a Spirit User," smiled Wang Chao turning around and going back to his chair. "Just consider me a mind reader with the ability to cause pain on a spiritual level instead of a physical one."

"It felt pretty physical to me," replied Hao Jing Ya, a tight smile on her face.

"Then show me the cuts, the bruises, the blood," shot back Wang Chao, getting comfortable. 

The woman couldn't respond. She knew as well as everyone else in that room that Wang Chao hadn't put a single finger on her. 

"She wants us back," said Liu Wei all of a sudden. He stood up and looked at Wang Chao. "What is your decision about his son?"

Gong Hao Zhi perked up as Liu Wei mentioned their entire reason for coming. He had forgotten about his son, so happy that there was finally a man who could put his wife in her place. The worst decision he had ever made was marrying for a second time. His life was so much better with his first wife, but he had been seduced by a much younger woman.

But there is no medicine for regret.

"We are going to return him," said Wang Chao, looking straight at Hao Jing Ya. "Without any compensation what. So. Ever."

"What about what the boss said?" asked Mao Jing concerned. This was the first mission that his new boss had given him, and he didn't want to fuck it up. 

Wang Chao turned away from the woman in front of him to look at Mao Jing. Nodding his head in approval, he explained his decision. "The thing she wants most is for Gong Ling Xin to die a horrible death. After her thoughts about my wife, how could I consider myself a good husband if I give her what she wants?"

"You want my son to die?" gasped Gong Hao Zhi in shock, turning to the woman he shared a bed with every night. 

"Is that really that big of a surprise?" demanded Hao Jing Ya. "I have given you three children. You have more than enough to replace one son that is more useless than tits on a bull."

Gong Hao Zhi opened his mouth to protest, but when his wife raised her eyebrow at him, he was quick to close it again. The last thing he needed was another beating so bad that he wasn't able to get out of bed for a few weeks. Even if he didn't have the actual power anymore, he couldn't let any outsiders know.

"I will go with you to meet your wife," said Hao Jing Ya as her husband was lost in his thoughts. "I'll be ready in ten minutes."

"You can go whenever you want," shrugged Liu Wei, looking at the woman. "You know where to find us. But we will be leaving now."

"And just how do you expect me to get to the club?" she asked, raising her eyebrow in challenge.

Liu Wei laughed at her attempt at intimidation. "I suggest you walk. Unless you have a bicycle at your disposal?"

Hao Jing Ya took in a deep breath and nodded her head. She knew the type of pain that one of the men could inflict; she was not going to push the second one to give her a demonstration. 

No, maybe it would be best if they left first. Then, she could get some of her men to accompany her to the club for a little discussion, one woman to another. 

"I wish you the best of luck with that plan," smiled Wang Chao as he stood up and started to walk toward the door. Liu Wei and Mao Jing followed close behind. "We will be waiting for you. And if you think that we are scary, well, you better hope that when you finally meet our wife, she is in a good mood."

The three men were escorted out of the house by Hao Jing Ya. Manners had been beaten into her since a young age to the point where they were a compulsion. "Thank you for coming," she said, not meaning a single word.

"Of course," nodded Wang Chao as he walked down the stairs. It was at that moment that Hao Jing Ya saw three motorcycles parked in front of her house.

"How?" she asked, unconsciously taking a step forward. She wanted those bikes.

"Possessed demons from Hell whose sole purpose is to get us around. I highly suggest that you forget about those thoughts of yours. No one that has sat on them without permission has lived to talk about it," said Liu Wei as he swung his leg over Reaper and sat down comfortably. "But who knows, maybe you are the exception to the rule. Right?"
