Chapter 321 The Scoundrel Young Master 7 "Oh, you're finally awake? Waiting for me to consummate our marriage?"
"Is this how the Shen family raises their daughters? On their wedding night, you're sleeping like a little pig, huh? Or are you already impatient?"
Lu Ran drew out his words, his language crude and direct. He leaned down, his breath reeking of alcohol, trying to find shame, anger, fear, or panic on her face.
He was prepared to say even more outrageous things, wanting to completely ruin this absurd arranged marriage before they even got their marriage certificate.
Zi Xi blinked, the confusion in her eyes gradually fading, replaced by a cold smile.
It seems this girl's wishful thinking is going to fall through; she won't back down or cry as Lu Ran expected.
"Young Master Lu, are you trying to make things difficult for me?"
Her voice was still soft and sweet from just waking up, but her tone was neither humble nor arrogant.
Lu Ran was taken aback, not expecting her to respond like that.
"Make things difficult for you? Let me tell you, I'm a reckless thug! I'm good at everything – smoking, drinking, and fighting! I'm no good guy!"
"You'll suffer after you marry me! Are you scared yet?"
Lu Ran frowned, trying to regain the initiative, and said in an even more malicious tone.
"If you really want to enter the Lu family, then you have to abide by my rules! First, I can come back whenever I want from now on. Second, don't interfere in my affairs! Third..."
He took a step closer, trying to overwhelm her with his presence, but he hesitated for a moment, unable to think of a third option.
Zi Xi watched him bluff and try to play the role of a bully, and suddenly chuckled softly.
"Oh? Setting rules, huh..."
"Is Young Master Lu's rule to come home in the middle of the night, wake up his newlywed wife, and then start yelling and scaring people like a child?"
"That's a bit too naive."
She drew out the last syllable, paused, and continued speaking slowly under Lu Ran's wide-eyed gaze.
"you……!"
Lu Ran was so choked by her blunt and sarcastic remarks that he could hardly breathe, and the fierce look on his face almost disappeared.
He had never met such a sweet and adorable girl before, who not only wasn't afraid of him but also dared to criticize him!
What shocked him even more was yet to come.
Zi Xi suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist, which was stiff with shock.
She wasn't very strong, but she moved extremely fast, catching Lu Ran off guard.
As she pulled him, Lu Ran's body leaned forward instinctively.
In the instant he was taken aback, Zi Xi tilted her head back and pretended to get up, then her lips touched his, before she feigned surprise and quickly lay down.
The touch was soft and warm, yet it was like a direct blow to Lu Ran's skull.
The intoxication, arrogance, and all the prepared nonsense were annihilated by this incredibly gentle kiss.
Lu Ran froze, his eyes wide open like saucers, his mind blank.
He felt his cheeks, ears, and even neck burning at an alarming speed.
This was his first kiss!
"You...you...you..."
"What...what are you doing?!"
Lu Ran pointed at Zi Xi, his tongue seemingly tied in knots, unable to utter a single complete sentence.
Looking at Lu Ran, who had been baring his teeth and brandishing his claws just moments before but was now blushing, Zi Xi's lips curved into a slightly smug smile.
"Young Master Lu, please don't overthink it. I just wanted to get up and get a drink of water."
She let go of his hand, calmly lay back down, pulled the blanket over half her face, and her voice came muffled from under the blanket.
"Young Master Lu, please make yourself at home. I'm going to sleep now."
