Chapter 1: Not well educated, but a sharp tongue

Tu Ran looked at the big red wedding character in the bridal chamber and felt as if it were a dream.

She married Xie Nancheng, the heir of the Xie family, one of the most powerful families in Xiangcheng.

A month ago, Lin Siyao was still bragging to her that she was going to be the first lady of Hong Kong and make all the women in the city cry with envy.

But man proposes, God disposes. A week ago, Xie Nancheng was blinded in a car accident.

In order not to offend the Xie family, the Lin family held the wedding as scheduled.

The only difference was that the bride was replaced by Tu Ran, an orphan whom the Lin family had secretly raised for four years.

When the door opened, she suddenly became nervous and looked at the man who walked in.

I held my breath for a moment...

Xie Nancheng had already taken off the heavy suit he wore at the wedding and was wearing only a simple white shirt and black trousers.

His appearance has always been a mystery in Xiangcheng. Some people say that he is as terrifying as the living devil.

Some people say that it is unparalleled in the world and stunningly beautiful.

Tu Ran looked at the face that was so exquisite that it could not be described in words, and for a moment he dared not breathe.

"Let me help you."

Knowing that he couldn't see and had to walk by groping his way, Tu Ran slowly stood up.

"No need." The man's tone was not friendly.

He stood three meters away from Tu Ran, his face as cold as ice.

"The Lin family is very calculating. Knowing that I'm blind, they replaced me with cannon fodder like you."

Tu Ran felt a little guilty, lowered his head and said nothing, and the bright red wedding dress he was wearing was quite ironic.

She actually didn't want to do it, but the Lin family used the four years of raising her to morally blackmail her, and she had no way out.

"Actually, you don't want to do that, right?" the man changed the subject.

Tu Ran subconsciously raised his head, "Indeed, I don't want to either, but I have no choice."

Xie Nancheng sneered, "Not bad, he's not a hypocrite, at least he's willing to tell the truth."

"But it doesn't matter. Whether it's you or Lin Siyao, the result will be the same."

Xie Nancheng and Lin Siyao were originally married between the Xie and Lin families, and there was no emotional basis between them.

Lin Siyao is quite pretty, but unfortunately Xie Nancheng has never been a man who values ​​looks.

"What's your name?" the man asked.

"Tu Ran." She said softly.

"How long have you been in the Lin family?"

"Four years."

"Why did the Lin family adopt you?

Faced with this question, Tu Ran thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

Because she knew that people from these big families had connections and could find out anything they wanted to know.

"Because my grandfather once saved Grandpa Lin's life, Grandpa Lin promised my grandfather that he would let his grandson marry me."

"Wow, so you are Lin Chen's fiancée. Is Lin Chen willing to let you marry him?" Xie Nancheng smiled contemptuously again.

"Lin Chen looks down on me, and I know that," she said.

"How old?"

Perhaps Xie Nancheng had been standing for too long, so he groped his way to sit on the sofa in the master bedroom and asked casually.

"I'm 22."

"Are you still in school?" the man asked again.

After hesitating for a long time, Tu Ran slowly replied, "I've never been to school."

"What? Never? Don't tell me you haven't even been to kindergarten."

Tu Ran grabbed the hem of her skirt awkwardly and said, "No."

"Haha, interesting, really interesting." This surprised Xie Nancheng.

"I didn't expect that my wife, Xie Nancheng, would be an illiterate woman. It's funny."

Facing the man's ridicule, Tu Ran could no longer sit still. She stood up again, took a deep breath, and said, "You don't have to mock me like that. I married you according to the Lin family's wishes. And your family didn't object when they knew about the replacement, right? After all, there are still people willing to marry a blind person like you, right?"

"Also, if you're not satisfied with me, we can divorce at any time. You write the divorce agreement now and I'll leave right away."

"Do you think you have any way out?" The man frowned slightly.

"Then do you think you have any choice?" Tu Ran asked him bravely, neither humble nor arrogant.

For a moment, the air froze and both of them fell into silence.

Finally, Xie Nancheng sneered.

"He may not be well educated, but he has a sharp tongue."

Tu Ran didn't say anything. To be honest, if she hadn't spent enough time in the Lin family for four years, she wouldn't have cooperated so obediently to marry him. As the man in front of her said, did she have any way out? Of course she did, but it was just not the right time yet, because she hadn't found what she was looking for yet.

"You sleep on the bed tonight and I'll sleep on the sofa." The tone sounded like an order, with disdain, but at least it was gentlemanly.

"No need, this is your home, I'll sleep on the sofa." Tu Ran slowly stood up, and the golden hair crown on his head made a slight sound.

"Whatever, I'm going to take a shower." The man fumbled to get up.

After hesitating for a moment, Tu Ran reluctantly asked, "Do you need help?"

What she was thinking was that the man in front of her was blind and could not see anything.

But when men heard it, they understood it differently.

"Oh? Okay, but how do you want to help?" He suddenly became playful and deliberately played a prank.

Sure enough, Tu Ran's face flushed instantly, but she was glad that the man in front of her couldn't see it.

"I was afraid you'd fall in the bathroom. If anything happened to you, I'd be held responsible. Don't misunderstand anything else."

"Then you can wash it for me yourself?" the man continued to make fun of it.

"If you don't mind, of course I can." She was also very straightforward.

"OK, come in then."

Unexpectedly, he agreed so easily. Tu Ran was stunned and at a loss.

"If you want to regret it, it's not too late now."

Seeing her hesitation, Xie Nancheng chuckled. He thought this woman was quite interesting. He was trying too hard to save face and didn't dare to come in.

"Why should I regret it? I'm not that valuable. I'll just wash it. Who's afraid of who?"

Tu Ran is a taciturn person who doesn't talk much but has a very stubborn temper. His grandfather has scolded him for this many times since he was a child.

It's just a shower, what's there to be afraid of? It's not like you're going to eat yourself.

With this thought in mind, Tu Ran followed the man into the bathroom obediently. Perhaps out of caution, she did not close the door.

"Will you help me take it off, or do I take it off myself?"

Xie Nancheng's words immediately put Tu Ran in an awkward position again.

She finally realized that this man was doing it on purpose, bullying others.

She made up her mind and asked coldly, "Mr. Xie, I think you are just blind, not disabled, right?"

"That makes sense. Then I'll take it off myself." After saying that, the man took off his coat and the lining inside.

Instantly revealed a good figure with eight abdominal muscles...

Tu Ran suddenly turned her head away, and her fair little face turned slightly red again.

Feeling her embarrassment, the man raised his ruthless lips in a good mood.

"Just help me adjust the water temperature, and then you can get out."

Asking her to help him take a bath was an act of prank in itself.

Xie Nancheng has been single for many years and is not interested in women, so he will not really keep her here.

Hearing him say this, Tu Ran felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly turned around and bent over to the bathtub to adjust the water valve and water temperature.

Due to a slight panic, she accidentally touched the man's foot stepping into the bathtub. As a result, there was a "plop", the world spun around, and the two fell into the bathtub together!

The man was on the bottom and the woman was on top. She was lying on top of him, her palms pressing heavily on his chest...

"Sir, my wife asked me to bring some soup..."

The maid had just walked to the bathroom door with the soup when she saw this scene and was shocked.

"Ahhh! Sir! Young Madam! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to!"

The maid was so scared that she put the soup on the coffee table and ran away.

The remaining two people were even more embarrassed.

"How long do you plan to hold me?" Xie Nancheng frowned slightly, his tone tinged with sarcasm: "Didn't you say you didn't want to marry me at all? Why, now that you see me, you're tempted by my beauty again?"

Tu Ran wanted to roll his eyes immediately: "Stop flattering yourself! Although you do have a nice figure, who knows if it's just a bunch of hot peppers hanging on a tree, just for show?"

After saying that, he wanted to withdraw his hand quickly.

However, the man grabbed her wrist and said, "You are the first person who dares to mock me. Very good. Do you want me to prove to you now whether I am a hot pepper or not?"

"You, let me go!...Huh?"

During the struggle, Tu Ran's fingers accidentally brushed across his arm and he noticed something.

"Xie Nancheng, are you sure that you became blind due to a car accident?" Tu Ran asked with a frown.

Xie Nancheng was such a smart person, he could tell something was wrong and his eyelids twitched. "What do you mean by that?"
