After the ceremony, Gu Jingchen had Su Ning taken directly to his villa.
At night, the Gu family home was quiet, with no hint of a wedding celebration.
The tranquility of the building was broken only by the sound of car horns outside.
The sound woke Su Ning from her sleep. She opened her eyes and was momentarily disoriented by the sight of the wedding room covered with double happiness characters in the dim light.
The incessant vibration of her phone pulled her back to reality. She propped herself up with her hands, leaned a pillow against her lower back, and reached out to answer the phone.
Before he could even speak, an angry curse came from the other end.
"Su Ning, you're insane!"
Hearing her friend Mu An'an's exasperated voice, Su Ning chuckled, "What's wrong? Who made you so angry!"
"If I hadn't seen the news about you marrying him on my phone, when were you planning to tell us!"
Su Ning smiled and coaxed, "Isn't it because I was afraid you and Chu Feng would come and steal the bride?"
Yes, if they had known beforehand that Su Ning was going to marry Gu Jingchen, they would have definitely gone to the wedding and dragged her back.
"You should be glad Chu Feng isn't here."
Then, Mu An'an said with exasperation, "Su Ning, four years ago, it was Gu Jingchen who caused you to become like this!"
"You're just being a jerk!"
Su Ning pursed her lips, looking at the bright red "double happiness" character on the white wall in front of her, and her smile faded. "Whether it's shameful or not, I don't know! But the Su family cannot fall into the hands of Qiao Yimo and her father."
"If she marries Gu Jingchen..."
"If Qiao Yimo wants to give it to her, is money more important or your life?"
Mu An'an still remembers receiving the call four years ago and rushing to the hospital to find Su Ning covered in blood, lying on a stretcher, barely alive.
"Money! Without money, how can I hire a caregiver!" Su Ning replied with a smile.
"You! You!"
Mu An'an was so angry she was speechless.
"Gu Jingchen is a scumbag. Why did he have to announce his marriage right after you came back?"
"With so many women in Nancheng, how blind could he be to choose Qiao Yimo, that black tea bitch!"
"I think this matter is not simple."
"You absolutely must hold on and not fall for Gu Jingchen again, or he'll torture you until there's nothing left."
After listening to Mu An'an say a lot, Su Ning responded with "uh-huh".
"Okay, An'an, don't be angry anymore. It's really good that I married Gu Jingchen."
"Gu Jingchen is rich, I won't starve. If we divorce, I'll get a lot of money!"
"Yes, you better spend this scumbag's money as much as you want!" Mu An'an said through gritted teeth, but even if she spent all of Gu Jingchen's money, Su Ning's leg would not get better.
Before Su Ning could say anything, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open forcefully from the outside, startling her so much that she dropped her phone on the bed. She looked up and saw a man in a white shirt leaning against the door in the bright hallway. He turned his head to look in, his dark eyes deep and unfathomable, which startled Su Ning. Her memories drifted away, and she seemed to see the scene of her first encounter with Gu Jingchen.
The bright sunshine cast dappled shadows on the trees along the street, and cicadas chirped incessantly in the branches. A carefree young man in a white shirt rode his bicycle, blocking her way.
"Take it!"
He shoved the pink-covered love letter into her hand, a smirk playing on his lips as he stared at her, who was stunned. He was arrogant and unrestrained.
"From now on, you belong to me!"
