The lively banquet at 10 p.m. was finally replaced by the silence of the night.

Realizing that it was getting late, the guests at the wedding banquet began to leave one after another.

Meanwhile, Wang Siyuan was anxiously waiting in the bridal chamber.

"Alright! Siyuan, don't be in such a hurry. The groom will come sooner or later. He can't run away from us. What's the rush?" A rosy-cheeked lady teased playfully.

"But it's so late! He hasn't come back yet. Could something have happened to him?" Wang Siyuan became more and more uneasy.

"Don't worry! Everything will be fine! Are you worried about the groom getting lost?!"

Wang Siyuan's secret was exposed. Even now, she still feels like she's in a dream and can't believe that Chu Ran actually married her.

"Siyuan, don't worry! Everything will be fine. Li Churan doesn't seem like such an irrational person."

"But Chu Ran has always been cold to me. Do you think he might..." Wang Siyuan didn't care about saving face anymore. She loved Li Chu Ran madly, and she didn't care about anything else as long as she could get him.

Just as a group of women were giving Wang Siyuan some crooked advice, the door creaked open.

A handsome man, reeking of alcohol, staggered in.

He was wearing a custom Armani suit, and his hair, which had been meticulously styled with hair gel, was now somewhat disheveled, with a flush appearing on his handsome face.

"Well, Siyuan, now that the groom is back, we'll be leaving now!" Upon seeing this, the bridesmaids quickly scattered like birds.

"Yes, yes, we're leaving now!"

"Siyuan, take good care of the groom tonight."

"Then we'll be going now!"

Soon everyone left, leaving only Li Churan and Wang Siyuan.

Wang Siyuan sat on the edge of the bed, her hands tightly gripping the hem of her clothes.

"Um, Chu Ran, it's getting late, let's rest first!" He said, and went over to unbutton Li Chu Ran's collar.

"You should rest first! I have to go out for a bit!" Li Churan pushed Wang Siyuan's hand away, struggled to stand up, and was about to walk out again.

"Chu Ran, it's so late, where are you going?" Wang Siyuan was anxious and quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"You sleep here! I'll go somewhere else!" Li Churan gave her a cold look, then grabbed her coat from the bed and opened the door.

"Why are you going somewhere else? Today is our wedding night!" Wang Siyuan blocked the doorway with her body.

"Wedding night? We're both remarried, do we really need to have a wedding night?" Li Churan said impatiently.

"Chu Ran, you said before that we shouldn't overstep the bounds of propriety before we have a formal title." Wang Siyuan's pent-up grievances finally reached their breaking point today.

Li Churan ignored her completely, standing still in front of the door, looking at Wang Siyuan with an expression as if she were an idiot.

"Miss Wang, you'd better step aside!" Li Churan pushed Wang Siyuan aside.

"No, I'm not leaving! Were you lying to me all along?"

"I'm not lying to you! I did say that we shouldn't overstep the bounds of propriety before the official wedding ceremony."

“But I never said that we had to overstep the bounds of propriety after the wedding!” Li Churan replied confidently, and this shameless reason actually sounded quite convincing coming from her mouth.

"Is that so?" Wang Siyuan, an art college graduate, was indeed a bit slow-witted and was momentarily confused by Li Churan.

“Of course!” Li Churan took advantage of Wang Siyuan’s loosening of her grip and turned to leave the room.

Wang Siyuan stood there, increasingly confused. Something was wrong! She and Chu Ran were already married, so why would she be staying in another room?

Could it be that Li Churan has other women in his heart? She recalled some information she had investigated.

"Li Churan, stop!" she screamed.

Li Churan paused for a moment, then continued walking forward.

"Chu Ran, you have another woman in your heart, don't you? Who is she? Is she that woman named Lin Mengru?" Wang Siyuan shouted hysterically like a madwoman.

"Lin Mengru, ha! If that's what you want to think, then so be it!" Li Churan snorted coldly and continued walking forward without turning her head.

How could it not work! Isn't it her? But the people investigating said that Chu Ran used to be madly in love with Lin Mengru, and even divorced his original wife for her.

Wang Siyuan was at a loss; she must have angered Chu Ran this time.

Just as Li Churan's figure was about to disappear, Wang Siyuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and another person's name popped into her mind.

"Ye Ning, is the woman in your heart named Ye Ning?"

She regretted it as soon as she said it.

She's so stupid. How could the person in his heart be his ex-wife whom he abandoned?

But the words had already been spoken, and it was too late to regret them now. Besides, there were indeed no other women listed in the records.

She thought that Li Churan would just walk away, given her temper, but who knew that Li Churan would react so strongly.

He didn't even have time to pick up his coat that had fallen to the ground before striding up to Wang Siyuan and slamming the door shut right in front of her.

"Chu Ran, you..." Wang Siyuan was both surprised and delighted. She opened her mouth to say something.

However, before she could even utter a sound, her neck was suddenly gripped tightly by a hand like an iron clamp, squeezing her until she almost suffocated.

It was Li Churan. His breath was as cold as a demon's, a chilling smile played on his lips, and his wise eyes were now bloodshot.
