Chapter 1~Chapter 5

001 Sudden change on wedding day

Gu Yanxi, after looking after her father in hospital, returns to her wedding home, in the dusk of the evening.

She opens the door and is greeted by a fragrant smell. Roses in full bloom spread over the ground and the way to the stairs, just like a red carpet, stopping at no end.

After a slight trance, she, holding the dress in her hands, walks carefully upstairs, so as not to trample the romantic flowers.

The door of the bedroom upstairs is narrowly closed, and there is a strange sound from a man and a woman.

Gu Zi’an said that he would give her a surprise at home. However, this sound...

Gu Yanxi, holding her breath, flings the door open.

On the big red wedding bed, a man and a woman are entwining, completely nude.

After several seconds, Gu Yanxi finally resumes her voice, “What are you doing?” She says.

The two, caught by Gu Yanxi, show no trace of panic on their faces. Instead, they cock their heads and look at her with jeer, as if Gu Yanxi was the third one who shouldn’t break in.

While, in fact, the man on bed, Gu Zi’an, is the one who held a wedding with Gu Yanxi during the daytime. The woman is her friend, Liu Manman.

“Gu Yanxi, you are really a psycho with the vice of watching others have sex.” Liu Manman looks at her flauntingly, full of provocations and complacence in her exquisite evil eyes.

Gu Yanxi shivers, “Bullshit, I am Gu Zi’an’s wife. We just had a wedding today.”.

Liu Manman sneers, “Gu Yanxi, you still live in your dream. Gu Zi’an and I married today. You don’t know?”

How’s that possible!

Gu Yanxi looks at Gu Zi’an, with her glaring eyes.

Gu Zi’an has no intent to explain. He reaches out to throw a document and red certificate to Gu Yanxi, “Gu Yanxi, your father signed an agreement with me. If I marry you, he will bestow everything of your family to me. I have fulfilled my promise and now we are done here. You can leave now and do not mess up my wedding night.” Gu Zi’an says.

Gu Yanxi picks up the document stiffly from the ground, with her pale face just like a piece of paper. Her dad transferred all estates of Gu Family to Gu Zi’an one month ago. While the red certificate is the marriage certificate of Gu Zi’an and Liu Manman. The date is today.

Gu Yanxi glares at the two people betraying her. She, with her teeth clinched with rage, says, “Gu Zi’an, my dad treats you like his blood, trusts you and gives you everything. But you really give me surprise. Liu Manman, your mother is mistress, and your father never gives you legitimate position, let alone alimony. I saw you through all kinds of difficulties. Now you seduce my husband. How could you do this to me!”

A gleam of guilty conscience flashes on the faces of Gu Zi’an and Liu Manman, but then turns into a haze.

“Gu Yanxi, we were extremely embarrassed in front of you. That’s why we both hate you and wish you go to hell.

“See, everything of Gu Family belongs to me now, including this house, Gu’s house. Gu Yanxi, you have nothing but your half-dead father. Now get out. Do not let me see your face.”

Gu Yanxi clasps her hand, with her slender fingers turning white due to hard squeeze.

Liu Manman, having fuound that Gu Yanxi has no intent to leave, arches Gu Zi’an deliberately, “Honey, she doesn’t want to leave. What can we do?”

Gu Zi’an pinches Liu Manman’s face, “If she wants to stay here, just take her as the air. Let’s continue.”

“Hey, little nasty.”

“You little evil.”

This is Gu Yanxi’s home, but suddenly it is occupied by evils. They are her most trusted people, but now they humiliate her in such a dirty manner.

Gu Yanxi cannot stay here any more. She turns around in haste and reels out.

She should cry, but no tear in extremely hatred.

Gu Yanxi’s all bank cards are frozen, and the hospital urges her for medical expense. The next day, she walks around in the boiling sun to borrow money, but in vain. Gu Yanxi, like a noble princess, once protected from wind and rain by her father, is sitting on the street in the park, just like a dumped puppet.

She has learnt a lesson from the fickle world. She grabs her hair with both hands disparately to know what she can do, where she can borrow money. Without money, her dad will die immediately.

“Excuse me, are you Miss Gu? My boss wants to see you.” A man’s voice comes to her head suddenly.

Jingzhou, Nightking.

Nightking is quite boisterous at night. Women come here to find rich men or have a sleepover with someone, while men come here to prey for fun.

Third floor, a supreme VVIP room. The man opens the door and invites her to go inside.

Gu Yanxi hesitates, with no idea about the boss inside. But under her circumstance, the word “boss” is quite enough for her to go inside.

The room is suffused with dim light and soft music. A man is hidden in the corner of the sofa, not clear for her, but he is tall vaguely with incense smoke around his lips.

Gu Yanxi stands far away form the man. He smokes without a word, while she hesitates to ask, “Who are you? Why you invite me here?”

The man gets back his composure. He, picking his eyebrows, realizes that the woman has arrived.

The man looks at Gu Yanxi in the dim. His eyes are sharp and dark, with a sense of hunting. After one minute, the man stubs out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray on the coffee table. “You don’t know me”, he says slowly.

The man’s voice is as good as the midrange of the cello, and the end syllable is provoked with a clear question.

Gu Yanxi has neither graduated nor gained any work experience. She, having been protected pretty well by her dad, lives with rare interaction with outside. Therefore, she knows few except her circle.

But from his tone, she should know him. So she walks a few steps forward and wants to see his face more clearly.

Gradually, Gu Yanxi sees the man’s appearance. He is characterized by honey-colored skin, robust shape and a clear-cut face. His eyes, deep and dark as they are, form a bottomless abyss; his nose is straight; the strong line of his jaw looks pretty and perfect.

There is no doubt that the man is quite attractive and handsome. Deep eyes render him an air of dignity, just like a king.

Gu Yanxi, after seeing the man’s face clearly, suddenly stops and blurts out, “Huo Yichen”.

Huo Yichen hears this exclaim, with his tensed facial features loosening. He sneers and gets up from the dim to the light. Then, he, just like an elegant leopard, walks slowly to Gu Yanxi and stands beside her, “Miss Gu, long time no see.”

002 I am coming to marry you

Invisible power pours down from Huo Yichen. Gu Yanxi, paralyzed as she, falters to say, “Why, why you invite me here?”

Huo Yichen reaches out his hand to lift Gu Yanxi’s chin. He holds her beautiful face gently, with his fascinating voice, “It’s time to fulfill the contract we concluded five years ago.”

Gu Yanxi’s heart is hanging tightly and her lips can’t stop trembling, “Five…five years? Contract?”

 “Forget?” Huo Yichen sneers and kindly reminds, “Five years ago, I said I would marry you when you were twenty years old.”

Suddenly, she remembers everything.

She, frightened as she is, stares at Huo Yichen who behaves like a winner. She cannot even utter a word, as if she was caught in the throat.

Seeing that she is completely dumb, Huo Yichen says with his warm breath spraying on her face, “So it is the time for me to match my commitment.”

Gu Yanxi, with her hands clenching into fists, gets up the courage to face his hazy eyes, “Do you take the marriage as revenge?”

A grim smile appears on Huo Yichen’s unrivaled face. He says, “Not with standing a revenge, you will choose to marry me and even feel grateful to me. Am I right, Miss Gu?”

Gu Yanxi’s heart is sinking to the bottom of the valley without a trace. Eventually, she bows to him, “You are right. I am grateful that you can marry me now.”

“So smart!” Huo Yichen rubs her chin with his finger pulp and shortens their distance.

Gu Yanxi, having recognized what he is going to do next, moves her head subconsciously.

Huo Yichen holds her chin forcefully suddenly. So painful, as if her chin were crushed.

“Miss Gu, you agreed to marry me five years ago. How about your attitude now? Any change?” Huo Yichen says with cold voice. Hearing that, Gu Yanxi cannot help but shiver.

Turbid valves are rolling over in Huo Yichen’s eyes, whilist Gu Yanxi has a pale face. She starts to think what she did just now? This man is her in-waiting husband. She has no excuse or qualification to get away from him. She cannot escape from his hand even for her dad.

Considering that, Gu Yanxi strains every muscle to stand on tiptoe, closes her eyes, and trembles to kiss his lips.

The cigar smell comes to her nose before she touches his lips. She puts away her sadness and humiliation, tramples her dignity hard on the ground and stands on tiptoe once again. However, when she approaches so closely and tries to kiss him, Huo Yichen throws her chin away and turns around loathly. “You want to seduce me now without any legal title? At 9 AM tomorrow, bring all your certificates. We meet at Civil Affairs Bureau.”

After Huo Yichen leaves away, Gu Yanxi stays in the room, stunned like a silly, and comes to herself after a long time.

The next day.

Holding a marriage certificate, Gu Yanxi is in a trance.

On the red certificate, their photos seem to be combined. They, just like enemies, sit together, without any trace of smile on their faces.

Huo Yichen drives away after getting the marriage certificate. His assistant and driver Geng Chao pays half-a-year medical expense for Gu Yanxi’s dad and then drives her back to Huo Yichen’s house.

It’s a very luxurious three-storey villa with an outside swimming pool and a garden. It, boasting its quality interior decoration, resembles an imperial palace. Seven or eight servants perform their duties. Gu Yanxi was born with a silver spoon, but this house is much more luxurious.

The night is well advanced.

Gu Yanxi gets up from the sofa, puts her perturbation away and feels relived. Huo Yichen manages a big company and is surrounded by all kinds of women each day. It is midnight. She thinks that he won’t be back.

So she puts on her pajamas and goes to bed. Her nerves are on edge recently. But now she relives and falls asleep soon.

Gu Yanxi is sleeping soundly. Suddenly, she feels a heavy object pressing on her, and opens her eyes by instinct.

The light is off before she goes to bed, but now the light is on. A strong alcohol smell comes from Huo Yichen. He presses against Gu Yanxi by the quilt, with his hand going inside the quilt...

“Huo Yichen, you...you are drunk. Don’t behave like this.”

Though prepared herself emotionally, she flinches for one moment due to the strange touch.

Huo Yichen feels her resistance. He pulls the quilt and throws it onto the ground, reminding her tyrannically, “We are legal now. I am your legitimate husband, your man. Forget?”

Gu Yanxi, with her body just like a log, says in a low voice, “I haven’t forget, I am your wife.”.

Seeing Gu Yanxi’s obedience, Huo Yichen, with his previous tone disappearing in an instant, reaches out his hand and rubs her chin gently, “Good. You are docile.”

Gu Yanxi feels the roughness of her face, as if the insects were crawling there. Strong fumes of wine come from Huo Yichen’s breath. She is nearly drunken.

“Huo Yichen, you are drunk now. Can you go to sleep?” She tries to get up to avoid any touch with him. But Huo Yichen is lying above her, which makes her breathless.

Gu Yanxi pushes Gu Yichen’s shoulder away with great care, but this movement irritates him. He flew into rage, “Tonight is our wedding night. I am going to sleep with you.”

With these words, Huo Yichen lowers down his head on her neck, giving her no chance to struggle.

The strange contact and strong fumes of wine makes Gu Yanxi resists instinctively, “Wait, Huo Yichen, I’d better get you a cup of honey water to alleviate your hangover.”

“Too noisy, shut up!” Huo Yichen gets annoyed like a irritated leopard, with his lip pressing against her lip to stop her.

Gu Yanxi’s revolt cannot stop him at all. She’d rather die at that moment.

Huo Yichen pauses and looks down at Gu Yanxi, who has twisted facial features as well as dark and obscure eyes - just one pauses. After that, waves of pain rush up, appearing to crash her.

If this is a dream, she hopes this is just a nightmare...

Her bumpy body resembles a boat in the ocean during a storm.

Late at night, everything in the room subsides. Huo Yichen stares at Gu Yanxi, who is sleeping. He reaches out his hand to put her hair on her face behind her ears. His eyes are brimming over with endless gentleness, instead of the vertex of the storm. After just one moment of warmth, he decides to get up. Then, he takes up his clothes and leaves away.

003 Humiliation and provocation

The sun shines into the room. Gu Yanxi opens her eyes and, with a wooden face, stares at the ceiling for a long time.

She moves her body slowly. The pain all over the body serves as the evidence for her whole-night struggling.

She had no tear even with waves of anguish last night. But at this moment, she covers her face with her hands, shivering in this empty room. Tears flood her eyes. She whimpers like a poor little cub.

Five years ago, Gu Yanxi was 15 years, young and beautiful, just like a tiny delicate bloom with dews; Huo Yichen was 20 years old, a milkman in her school.

They met at the school canteen every day, and Gu Yanxi smiled to him every time he delivered milk to her.

One day, Huo Yichen pulled up all his socks and said, “Gu Yanxi, would you marry me when you grow up?”

Looking at his faded pants washed hundreds of times, Gu Yanxi was little shocked, “With what?”

Huo Yichen clenched his fists, “I will work hard.”

On these words, Gu Yanxi smiled, “You need to earn many bride-price to get my father’s consent.”

Gu Zi’an took her away, “No need to talk with a milkman.”

Gu Yanxi went away arm in arm with Gu Zi’an, “He said he would marry me when I grow up. How ridiculous! ”

“Gu Yanxi, in five years, you will be willing to marry me.”

Huo Yichen made an oath that day.

Gu Yanxi cries out of her breath. Fortune knocks once at every man’s door. The pride princess falls down to the bottom of valley, while the milkman strikes back.

She searched Huo Yichen on her phone the day she left Nightking. She found that he is so well-known to everyone except her.

    From Baidu, she learnt that Huo Yichen is the leader both in financial and cultural communities. He, temperamental as he is, is favored by numerous women. He was in other cities and just moved to Jingzhou to run business one month ago.

Gu Yanxi - the pride princess comes down in the world.

Huo Yichen - the poor boy becomes a ruler of this world.

Huo Yichen serves as a God when Gu Yanxi has her back to the wall. He has fulfilled his promise and married her.

Not for love, but for humiliation.

Gu Yanxi tires of crying eventually. She gets up and finds a box of Yuting on the bedside table. The contraceptive pill is just like a loud slap on her face. She, staring at the pill for quite a while, takes out one pill and swallows it without water.

She goes to take a shower with her painful body. The bruised blue-black in the mirror brings back her memories of last night.

She goes to the dressing room after bath. What she sees is three walls’ of wardrobes filled with famous clothes, shoes and handbags with labels on. Huo Yichen is affordable to prepare best for Gu Yanxi.

Gu Yanxi knows clearly his scheme - this is his revenge for the humiliation five years ago..

She takes one set of clothes and makes up to conceal her inflamed eyes. She ties her hair up, takes one designer LV handbag and puts on a pair of French-brand limited-edition heels.

It’s good to know that tears are bitter. Don’t cry, the bad guys will laugh.

Gu Yanxi says to herself, “Gu Yanxi, your waist and back should be straight and upright, and your head should be lifted. Don’t bow your head, otherwise the crown will fall. I am Gu Yanxi, a forever princess in the eyes of my father.”

In the hospital, Gu Yanxi sits before the bed, looking at her father who is sleeping. She works at a smile and says, “Dad, I got married. His name is Huo Yichen, a very famous man. He takes care of me very well. Our house looks like a palace. The wardrobe is filled with beautiful clothes and shoes specially designed for me.”

Gu Yanxi takes some water to wash her father’s face, “Dad, wake up till you have enough sleep. You can continue sleeping if you still feel tired. I am not a child any more. I have grown up. I will take everything back belonging to us. Gu Zi’an and Liu Manman will pay for this.”

“Yeah, How dare the woman is! Your plan will be ended in vain, idiot. ” A mystifying voice comes from outside. Gu Yanxi, even with no need to turn back, knows that’s Liu Manman.

Gu Yanxi turns around with her murderous eyes, “Get out.”

Liu Manman, a little scared of her eyes, turns around, “Who wants to stay here? With a half-dead man?”

Gu Yanxi closes the door gently.

To Gu Yanxi’s surprise, Liu Manman is waiting for her outside to make trouble for her. Seeing Gu Yanxi out, Liu Manman winks over, swinging her lips with a bitter tone, “Gu Yanxi, how’s that feeling to be a pauper? Being treated with disdain, you must love these clothes from flea market!”

Liu Manman fiddles with her hair to expose her diamond on her neck. The finger ring is just the one Gu Zi’an put on Gu Yanxi’s finger at the wedding. After that, Gu Zi’an said that the ring and necklace are too big for her, so he took all these from her. But now, all these belong to Liu Manman.

Gu Yanxi wants to laugh at that moment. Gu Zi’an rackets his brains to take all valuable ornaments to trouble her.

While, what Gu Zi’an did not expect was that Huo Yichen has found Gu Yanxi.

“Liu Manman, have you heard ‘Pauper will never be a king even with imperial robe’? You are mean and cheap. No matter what you wear, you can never cover up your true nature.” Gu Yanxi says coldly.

Liu Manman, with her scar being exposed. says with a gloomy face, “Gu Yanxi, you’re just sour grapes.”

 “I am sour grapes? My dress is the latest design of French designer KL, and the fabric is the most extravagant in Europe. How ridiculous! Even if you are wearing my clothes, carrying my handbags, and putting on my necklace and my finger ring, you cannot hide your bitch nature, ignorance and impudence to lose no time in humiliating me.” Gu Yanxi snorts.

Liu Manman is so embarrassed, with her face flushing. She just wants to show off and see Gu Yanxi’s jokes, but what she received is her squib.

“Bull shit! How could you buy such expensive clothes? We have closed Gu’s house, and all your jewelry and clothes belong to me now. All the money in your credit cards has been transferred to us and even the medical expense of your father is in arrears. How could you have money? ”

Gu Yanxi shows an enchanting smile, “Liu Manman, you steal everything but me. I just to wave my gusset and men will bring me money one after another. Do you have such ability?”

004 You son of a bitch

Liu Manman admits that Gu Yanxi, elegant and beautiful as she is, has fair skin, pretty appearance, and good figure. She can do nothing but envy to death. She snaps, “Son of a bitch! No wonder Gu Zi’an dumped you.”

   “Interesting!” Gu Yanxi says, “Speaking of bitch, you are equaled by no one. If Gu Zin’an dumps you, do not come to me for comfort.”

Liu Manman, flushing with agitation, lifts up her chin, “Wake up, Gu Yanxi. I know G Zi’an. He will never dump me.”

Gu Yanxi picks her eyebrows, “We will see.”

Seeing that Gu Yanxi wins the quarrel, Liu Manman is too angry to stay here any longer. She stomps her feet and leaves away.

Looking at Liu Manman’s back, Gu Yanxi’s smiles disappears. Her legs are too weak, so she sits on the chair in the corridor. She has to admit that although she has no dignity in front of Huo Yichen, she loses no face in the quarrel with Liu Manman. This victory is owing to Huo Yichen.

Gu Yanxi hasn’t seen Huo Yichen for several days.

Gu Yanxi hears from Cook Sister Zhang that Huo Yichen hardly goes home. He usually lives outside. Where does he stay? Gu Yanxi has no interest to know. Huo Yichen seldoms goes home. This is good news for her.

Gu Yanxi knows roughly about his whereabouts even Huo Yichen stays outside. Why? Cook Sister Zhang likes to watch TV, especially entertainment gossip. These TV reports Huo Yichen’s track now and then.

“Mr. Huo, recently, your company strongly supports Miss Shen for advertisement, image representative and heroine. It is rumoured that Miss Shen is your girl friend. What do you think about it? ”

Huo Yichen always gives the media cold shoulder and deigns no answer. “Please do not surmise the relation between me and Mr. Huo. We will discuss scripts in the hotel later. Any more questions, please attend the launching event of the new play.” Shen Jun smiles decently.

Shen Jun, clever as she is, never tells the whole story, and leaves the rest to others for speculatation. However, a man and a woman discuss about scripts in the hotel at night. Plainly, her heart is not in the script.

Gu Yanxi takes the remote control and turns off the TV. She does so not because she is angry about Huo Yichen’s rumors with other woman. Instead, she thinks that Yichen will be accompanied and surely will not get back tonight.

She runs upstairs, changes her clothes and leaves away in the dusk of the evening. After several day’s inquiry, she has got the address of her father’s lawyer - Lawyer Wang.

Gu Yanxi feels that there must be something wrong with the bestowal contract. If there is something wrong, Lawyer Wang must know the truth.

She hails a text to Lawyer Wang’s house. She goes upstairs and rings the doorbell, and someone opens the door.

“Hello, is this Lawyer Wang’s house?” Gu Yanxi asks the middle-age woman who has opened the door.

The woman gives a glance at Gu Yanxi, “I think maybe you want to find the previous owner of the house. I heard that man is a lawyer.”

Gu Yanxi, with her heart jolting suddenly, says, “The previous owner?”

That woman nods, “I bought this house one month ago. The agency said the previous owner is a lawyer. He made a fortune and immigrated abroad.”

Gu Yanxi hurries to her and asks, “Sister, do you know which country he has immigrated to?”

The woman shakes her head and says, “I don’t know.”

“Sorry to bother you.”

Gu Yanxi turns away. She doesn’t feel upset. Instead, she is more confident in her conjecture.

Lawyer Wang made a big fortune and immigrated, which may prove that Gu Zi’an bribed Lawyer Wang, and Lawyer Wang fiddled with the bestow contract. He immigrated abroad after getting a huge sum of money.

Huo Yanxi trusts her feeling and ratiocination. But who knows the truth except Lawyer Wang?

Gu Yanxi, immersed in a trance, walks in the night. She doesn’t find that a man is approaching to her slowly. Suddenly, a hand reaches out from her back and covers her nose with a pungent handkerchief. She struggles, but ends without consciousness.

She is dreaming, where she, painful as she is, cannot even breathe. She has both heart pain due to Gu Zi’an’s the betrayal and body pain due to Huo Yichen’s seizure.

She, hoping to wake up, does not want to be tortured in her dream. But she can’t. She holds her shoulder with her arms, but the weight on her chest makes her breathless.

No. It is too real to be a dream.

It is someone stoles the air from her, which makes her breathless. The hand moving on her body is so real and thus she feels that her whole body, so hot as it is, is set on fire.

She tries to wake up and opens her eyes with all her strength.

What she sees is a big face of a man. She is quite familiar with this face. Once it is gentle and handsome, now she has no feeling except nausea.

She pulls all her strength on the right hand and slaps on that face.

The slap is abrupt and loud. Gu Zi’an, who is lost and delirious with closed eyes, is knocked into a cocked hat. He, with his ferocious eyes, covers his face and lifts up his head suddenly.

GuYanxi intents to bend her knees, in order to cripple Gu Zi’an’s penis. But he has prepared after the slap. With his height advantage and absolute masculine power, he uses his legs to separate her legs.

She panics because she feels his masculine symbol. She struggles desperately, “Gu Zi’an, you bastard. What do you want to do?”

GuZi’an imprisons her tightly with his body, raises her hands on her head to fix. He, with his cold and hideous eyes, says, “Gu Yanxi, you little slurs, you’d rather sell your body for money.”

Gu Yanxi, unable to move, sneers, “Gu Zi’an, How ridiculous. It’s none of your business.”

Gu Zi’an grits his teeth and says, “We have been together for dozens of years. Do you know how many times I want to fu*k you? But you are a noble princess. We cannot have sex before we have married. I have to resist my eagerness for a long time, but now your virginity is taken by others!”

Gu Yanxi ridicules, “So, what did you hear from Liu Manman? Now you robe me to eat someone else’s leftovers!”

Gu Zi’an squints, “I don’t expect that once unattainable princess is a spurt. Since it is so, you just make a price and it’s my turn.”

Gu Yanxi spites into his face, “Get away. I will never make a deal with you even if I exchange sex for money!”

Gu Zi’an looks down with fury, “Gu Yanxi, you little skirt, I will tease you for free!”

005 What a generous wife

Gu Yanxi is frighted. Now Gu Zi’an exposes his true and could have done anything.

What can she do now?

She cannot be a piece of meat on the board and let this bastard succeed.

Suddenly, she looks at the door with her wide eyes, “Liu Manman, why are you here?”

On her words, Gu Zi’an releases her hands and turns around. At this moment, Gu Yanxi grabs the bed lamp and slams it to him.

Gu Zi’an finds nobody there and realizes she lied. However, it is too late to know this trick and he is hit hard on his head. Slimy liquid runs down from his forehead,and darkness comes over his eyes. As a result, he falls on the bed.

Gu Yanxi pushes him away, and climbers out of bed. She holds the lamp in one of her hand, and pushes him cautiously with another. Gu Zi’an lays on his stomach, deathly still.

She has no fear. Instead, she feels inexplicably excited. She, lifting up the lamp at Gu Zi’an’s afterbrain, really wants to hit him to death as revenge.

She lifts the lamp high enough without further movement.

If he dies in this way, she is bound to go to prison, and all estates belonging to Gu Family will be in the hand of Liu Manman eventually.

She shouldn’t be impulsive and let Liu Manman laugh out in the end. She cannot send him to the hell. The most rigorous punishment on the world is “living death”.

Considering this, Gu Yanxi puts down the lamp, takes off Gu Zi’an’s clothes on the ground, throws his pants to the end of the bed. She takes lots of pictures of his face without any trace of blood.

As she intends to change another pose for him, she finds that his brows are tightening. He seems to wake up from his breath. No more pictures. She takes all her staff and runs out of the room. 

She bumps into a man when she is rushing out of the hotel. She sees stars for a moment and then apologies to the man, “Sorry, I am so sorry.”

    Huo Yichen’s face clouds due to Gu Yanxi’s impudence.

Gu Yanxi rubs her head and looks up, goggling at him suddenly.

Huo Yichen!

Oh God. How could she bump into him!

Huo Yichen, with his gloomy face, doesn’t utter a word. Shen Jun - the actress next to him is quite impolite, “Did you leave your eye balls at home?”

After scolding Gu Yanxi, Shen Jun strokes Huo Yichen’s chest gently, “Are you OK, Yichen? Does it hurt? Let me help you rub.”

Huo Yichen, with his chilly face, looks at Gu Yanxi, and indulges Shen Jun’s random rubbing on his chest.

Gu Yanxi takes a step back. She shows no jealousy. Instead, she slowly comes down.

Gu Yichen married Gu Yanxi not long before, and they make no announcement to outside. So, there is no possibility for him to recognize her in front of his lover.

It is easy to handle since they are strangers.

“I am so sorry to run into you. It is very late. Wish you a happy night.”

Gu Yanxi bows her head to apologize with a smirking face.

That face really irritates Gu Yichen. She could even smile after seeing that he is together with another woman.

Shen Jun captures something wrong from his eyes. The woman in front of her is slim, with exquisite facial features and a sweet voice, which threatens her at once.

This woman is beautiful even without makeup. What can she do if Huo Yichen has a crush on her?

“Attention next time. Go away immediately. Don’t get in the way.”

Shen Jun drives Gu Yanxi away. Gu Yanxi nods and goes away without a glance at Huo Yichen.

Huo Yichen looks at Gu Yanxi back subconsciously, and Shen Jun pulls his arm, being cutesy, “Mr. Huo, let’s go upstairs. The director and the writer are waiting for us.”

Gu Yanxi takes a taxi back to the villa and tries hard to remove Shen Jun from her mind. She changes her household clothes, sends several photos to Liu Manman and calls her.

“Liu Manman, you should keep your eye on your man. You know, he came to me today, went down on his knees for forgiveness. He said you instigated him to do all these. He said you have hircismus, which made him sick. I just have a soft spot. With more than ten years of love, I forgive him because I know he was cheated by you. But comparing with other men, he is impotent. For me, there is no happiness with him. So I decide to give him back to you. Remember, never let him come to me. ”

Gu Yanxi hangs up in the roar of Liu Manman. She says to herself with a murderous voice, “Liu Manman, this is only a start for your pain!”

She throws the phone away and goes to bed. She hears the door lock twisting before falling asleep.

She sits up by instinct and Huo Yichen turns the light on.

    After seeing Huo Yichen, she blurts out, “You, you are back?”

Huo Yichen throws his suit on the bed, “This is my house. Why I cannot go back?”

She chuckles without a word. Considering Huo Yichen is her legal husband, she gets up and takes his suit to the wardrobe, “I thought you would not go back tonight.”

Huo Yichen hughes her from behind, and presses her back on the wardrobe door, condescending, “I will live with Shen Jun?” His breath sprays on her face.

Gu Yanxi is shocked by his action. She continues the talk without any deliberate ideas, “Shen Jun is beautiful and elegant, with a good figure.”

“Are you jealous?” Huo Yichen’s finger rubs her chin.

Gu Yanxi looks at his sharp eyes and shakes her head, “No, I am not jealous. I…I will not interfere with your life and freedom.”

“Hmph.” The sharpness in his eyes suddenly turns into a mockery, “How generous and sensible my wife is!”

Gu Yanxi feels a little bitter. “Wife” is just a shameful card in Huo Yichen’s eyes. She knows clearly what she is, and she is not qualified to complain. Yes, no need to complain.

“Why were you in the hotel?” Huo Yichen asks her suddenly.

She pushes him away gently, “To see a friend. Do you want to take a shower? I prepare the water for you.”

Huo Yichen, with a trace of gloom in his eyes, turns round and takes off his shirt, “Yes, I need you to help me with my bath.”

Gu Yanxi is speechless.

In the bathroom, Huo Yichen, naked as he is, stands under the water, turns his back to Gu Yanxi and asks her to scrubs his back.

Gu Yanxi has never been a servant or scrubed others’ back, let alone seen his naked body. Holding a bath towel in her hand, she flushed and and closes her eyes.

“What are you doing? Hurry up!” Huo Yichen impatient as he is, urges her.
