Chapter 3: It will take a few times to get used to it

Su Jiuyao could clearly smell the faint scent of cedar on him, as well as the faint smell of alcohol. Coupled with the dim light in the car, she felt a sense of ambiguity.

Su Jiuyao's face was getting hotter and hotter. She raised her hand to push him away, but he grabbed her wrist.

Gu Hanye held her slender wrist, raised the corner of his lip, and looked very dissatisfied:

"We're about to get married, but you don't even show me your face. Isn't Miss Su really that insincere?"

It seemed that this man was not going to let her go easily unless his demands were met.

Su Jiuyao sighed inwardly, forget it, sooner or later she would have to take off her veil in front of him anyway, so she simply stopped refusing.

"You, step back."

Gu Hanye laughed and let go of her wrist.

"Are you afraid that I'll be too close and get scared?"

However, while teasing, the girl had already taken off her veil.

Gu Hanye was stunned.

I had always felt that her facial features were not ugly, but I never expected them to be so... stunning!

She has delicate features and fair skin, without even a single black spot, let alone a burn scar.

Such a beauty can even be described as stunningly beautiful.

Perhaps it was because of Gu Hanye's stare at her that her slightly flushed cheeks, which were three parts shyness and seven parts anger, seemed even more vivid.

"Have you seen enough?"

Su Jiuyao glared at him unhappily and was about to put the veil back on, but Gu Hanye held her hand.

"You are so beautiful, why do you hide yourself?"

Su Jiuyao frowned, pulled her hand out of his, and put her veil back on.

"I just don't want to cause trouble."

Because her beauty has never brought her any convenience, but instead put her in danger time and time again.

After her appearance was restored, she was nearly molested by pilgrims who came to the temple several times, which left her with a deep psychological trauma.

From then on, she wore a veil to pretend to be an ugly woman, and never took it off even in front of her family.

Gu Hanye's eyes darkened as he listened to her suppressed tone.

She is a girl who lives alone away from home in the mountains. Maybe she has encountered some bad things?

Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but feel a pang.

"I'll be by your side from now on and won't let you be in danger again."

Su Jiuyao really wanted to correct him. There would be no “future” between the two of them. Once his headache was cured, they would divorce in half a year at most.

However, when he said this seriously, Su Jiuyao still felt a little warm in her heart.

Just as she was thanking him for his understanding, she heard Gu Hanye say, "So, don't wear it when you're in front of me."

“…I’m not used to it!”

Gu Hanye smiled slightly, "It will take a few times to get used to it."

He admitted that he might be a bit too overbearing, but he did have selfish motives.

It’s a pity not to show her face to such a beautiful wife.

Su Jiuyao wanted to resist, but Gu Hanye said, "Okay, it's settled, otherwise I won't marry you."

“…”

How could there be such a shameless person!

She thought he was pretty good just now!

Su Jiuyao was wailing in her heart, but now she needed help from Gu Hanye, so she couldn't get angry. She could only say that when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

At the same time, in the Xingchen Bar, Gu Tianqi was drinking and chatting with a group of friends.

"Tianqi! Your fiancée is going to marry your brother!" A friend exclaimed while holding a mobile phone.

Gu Tianqi blew out a puff of smoke and snorted, "Nonsense!"

How could someone like Gu Hanye, who is both cold and arrogant, be the one to take over?

"Really? Look if you don't believe me." The rich second generation had already handed the phone to him.

Gu Tianqi glanced at it and saw a report from a gossip media:

[Eat melon! A wealthy family's engagement scene, with plot twists worthy of a TV drama! The second son of the Gu family publicly rejects the third daughter of the Su family, who then dances with the eldest son of the Gu family, sealing their love. According to reliable sources, the two are planning to set a wedding date!]

The accompanying video is the one where Gu Hanye and Su Jiuyao are dancing.

Gu Tianqi curled the corners of his lips. The village girl was quite talented and could even dance.

However, Gu Hanye actually took over the ugly thing that he didn't want.

Probably to please his father, right?

Haha, Gu Tianqi was very disdainful of this.

Whoever wants to please him can do so. Anyway, he will never be a victim of a marriage arrangement. Even if his father promises him the right of inheritance, he will not want that woman.

Of course, Gu Tianqi didn't know that in the near future, he would be slapped in the face by his own words.

Gu Tianqi was in a very good mood at this time. He threw away his phone, slammed the table, and said proudly: "This young master treats us tonight! Everyone, have fun!"

For a moment, the bar was filled with cheers.

That night, Su Jiuyao, exhausted, went home and fell asleep. Her parents probably came back late, so they didn't talk to her.

The next morning, as soon as she got dressed, her father and mother brought the household registration book to her room together.

Her father, Su Shengnian, warned her: "After you get married, you must be nicer to Mr. Gu and smile more often."

Her mother, Feng Meiling, squinted her eyes and said, "You should still wear your veil during the day. Don't scare people. If the engagement is broken off again, we can't afford the shame!"

Su Shengnian cleared his throat and said, "Your mother has a point..."

Su Jiuyao was tired of hearing this and replied coldly: "If you have nothing else to do, I'm going out."

So Su Jiuyao left home without any mood to eat breakfast.

The fire that year burned down the Su family's old house and also destroyed Su Jiuyao's face.

Afterwards, a Taoist priest came to her house and told her parents that she was destined to be unlucky and that they should send her away as soon as possible and that they should never have any contact with her until she died.

Unexpectedly, her parents actually believed this absurd statement, threw her alone in a temple, and did not visit her for more than ten years.

Now that the global financial crisis has hit the Su family hard, they want to cling to the Gu family through marriage. However, the eldest daughter is already married and the second daughter is unmarried, but they are reluctant to let her become a victim of the marriage. Then the parents remembered that they still have a third daughter in the mountains.

Thinking about her parents' cruelty and coldness, as well as the lonely and helpless days she once lived, Su Jiuyao still felt bitter inside.

Now she just wants to repay her parents for giving birth to her through this marriage.

But from then on, she no longer owed them anything.

At 8:30 in the morning, Su Jiuyao arrived outside the Civil Affairs Bureau on time.

Gu Hanye was already waiting for her at the door. He was wearing a dark blue casual suit, which made his tall figure look even more outstanding and eye-catching.

Su Jiuyao looked at him from afar and felt dazed for a moment. This man whom she had only known for one day was about to become her legal husband. It still felt magical to think about it.

The key point is, I don’t know whether this man is a gentleman or a beast.

I remembered what he said the night before: if I don’t take off my veil in front of him, I won’t get married.

Su Jiuyao took a deep breath, took off the veil on her face rather uncomfortably, and then came to Gu Hanye.

"Mr. Gu, good morning."

Gu Hanye looked at the little woman, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Today Su Jiuyao wore a white floral retro dress, with her hair loosely tied behind her head with a ginger silk scarf, looking quiet and well-behaved.

Her fair and beautiful face became even more beautiful in the sunlight, so beautiful that people could not take their eyes off her.

The key point is, she was not wearing a veil.

It seems that she took his words yesterday to heart.

So good~

Gu Hanye couldn't help but reach out to rub her head. Su Jiuyao immediately frowned and glared at him, while stepping back.

"do what?"

Gu Hanye was stunned and a little embarrassed. Then Young Master Gu said calmly, "Why are you so nervous? There's something dirty in your hair."
