At midnight, around 2 A.M., I came back to the scenic mansion with the smell of alcohol filling my entire being.
This place is the residence of the first wealthy family in Seacity - the Lou Family, and it's also my... home.
Three years ago, I got married to their eldest son and became the Madame of the Lou Family. Normally, it would be an enviable thing for a woman to marry into a family of wealth, but my situation wasn't conventional. Everyone mocked me.
Because my husband, Lou Shao Tang, is a...vegetable!
In other words, I married a living dead man and have been faithfully serving him.
But, I don't care!
For the sake of money, it doesn't matter if he's a living dead or even a dead man, I would still have married him!
Upon opening the door to my room, I expected it to be pitch-dark as usual, but to my surprise, the lights suddenly came one.
“You even remember to come back!” a sharp voice rang in my ears, the next second, a slap landed on my face.
I was stunned for a bit, and turned my bruised face, staring blankly at my mother-in-law, Shen Yi Ru, who was enraged.
“You immoral wretch, if you dare come home late at night again, I'll break your legs! Tu Ying, remember how you got married into this house!”
I sneer at her, yanking her hand away, “I remember it very clearly! Shen Yi Ru, we both have what we wanted, don't act like I owe you all the time!" I retorted without hesitation, my tone mirroring her contempt.
Shen Yi Ru was furious, “Tu Ying, as easily as I let you become Madame of the Lou Family, I can strip you of this title!"
I chuckled, “Well then! If you want your son to be neglected for life, by all means, go ahead!"
My words hit the nail on the head. Given the current situation of Lou Shao Tang, there is no other woman in Seacity who would marry him besides me!
Shen Yiru pointed at me with trembling anger, "Fine, fine, fine~ Tu Ying."
"Out! I'm going to bed!" Before she could finish her sentence, I forcefully pushed her out the door.
Slamming the door shut, I walked to the bed, glaring at Lou Shaotang who was lying on it. Thinking of Shen Yiru's face just now, I picked up a pillow and threw it at his face.
Lou Shaotang had no reaction at all.
Indeed, after being married to him for 3 years, I was used to his silence.
Before I could let out all my anger, my phone rang. I glanced at the name on the screen, "Zhou Pig Brother", and frowned.
Pouring a glass of red wine, I curled my lip, using a voice that was enough to make a man go numb from head to toe, "Zhou, we just separated and you're already missing me?"
If it weren't for that contract, who would I have the time to respond to this old bastard!
Zhou told a risqué joke, causing me to pretend to be amused and laugh. The wine in my glass spilled on Lou Shaotang, surprisingly on a critical part of his body.
After hanging up the phone, I hesitated for a moment, but eventually decided to help him change into a clean set of men's pajamas.
As I took off his pants, I was surprised to find that the man in a vegetative state... had a nice figure.
I was taken aback and cursed at him, "What's the use? You're still useless!"
I threw a blanket in his face and went to have a bath.
By the time I finished, it was almost 3 o'clock. I put on a face mask and lay down.
In a daze, I felt something pressing on my leg, a pair of broad and slightly rough hands pressing against my waist.
I suddenly opened my eyes, to see Lou Shaotang's overly handsome face above me.
"Lo-Lou..." I was so terrified I could not speak, only managed to let out a weak sound.
Before I could finish my sentence, Lou Shaotang bit my neck. I was brought back to reality by the sharp pain, pushed him away, and turned on the light.
It wasn't a dream. Lou Shaotang, he... had truly woken up! At this moment, his face, still a bit pale, was staring at me intensely.
