Seeing that Chen Lang wouldn't listen to either soft or hard tactics, Shen Danru simply stopped paying attention to him.
She closed her eyes to rest, her mind racing.
She was thinking about how to get away.
The Chen family had already prepared the bridal chamber. Several burly women held down Shen Danru, dressed her in a wedding gown, gagged her with a handkerchief, covered her head with a veil, and then dragged her to the wedding ceremony.
"First bow to Heaven and Earth."
"Bowing to the parents twice."
Several women pressed down on Shen Danru's head, forcing her to worship heaven and earth.
Chen Lang's parents sat at the head of the table and glanced at Chen Danru with disdain.
Once the wedding ceremony is completed, she will be Chen Lang's wife.
No matter how arrogant she was before, once she became the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, she would inevitably be disciplined by them.
Women, if they don't obey, just beat them; there's no one they can't tame.
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
"Send them into the bridal chamber."
He was forcibly escorted by several women all the way back to his bridal chamber.
“Girl, you’ve already married Lang, so just live a good life and stop thinking about all that nonsense. Women have to get married eventually, it doesn’t matter who you marry. Marrying Chen Lang, at least you can at least fill your stomach,” a woman advised.
The woman believed that as long as she didn't go hungry, she had married into a good family.
Her mouth was still gagged, and Shen Danru was unable to speak. She showed no reaction, but the woman assumed she had heard her.
At this moment, Shen Danru was constantly thinking about how to escape.
Shen Danru wasn't sure if this was Chenjia Village or not. Her father and the others were definitely looking for her, and she wondered if they would be able to find her here.
After the women left, only Shen Danru remained in the room, bound hand and foot with a wedding veil covering his head.
What to do? What to do?
Shen Danru was secretly anxious.
Through the veil, there was nothing sharp in the room that could cut the rope.
She tried to break free with her hands, but the rope was tied very tightly and she couldn't escape at all.
I looked in the system store and found a fruit knife, so I redeemed one for two points.
After struggling to cut the rope, she ran out and bumped into Chen Lang.
"My little beauty, I'm back."
Chen Lang seemed to have drunk a few too many cups, as his speech was slurred.
"Oh, so eager to throw yourself into my arms? Let your husband take good care of you."
Chen Lang's smile was lewd.
He ran his hand directly over Shen Danru's waist, wanting to carry her to the bed and kiss her; he couldn't wait any longer.
Although Shen Danru was holding a fruit knife, she was extremely flustered.
She wasn't sure if she could get away with it.
She held a fruit knife to Chen Lang's neck: "Don't move, or I'll cut your throat."
Seeing Shen Danru's fierceness, Chen Lang's desire to conquer her got the better of him, and he laughed even louder: "Wife, are you trying to murder your husband?"
The fruit knife was gleaming, but he didn't take it seriously at all. He'd seen plenty of women like this; they'd avoid even ants in peace. How could he possibly bring himself to use a knife on her?
Shen Danru tightened her grip on the knife, pressing it forward, and a bloody mark immediately appeared on Chen Lang's neck.
At this moment, Chen Lang was also a little scared. He didn't dare to breathe loudly: "Girl, spare my life. If you kill me, you will not be able to leave Chenjia Village. The Chen family will not let your family go. Have you thought about it? Why don't you give in to me? I will treat you well in the future."
"Pah! Enough with the nonsense. If you want to live, let me go."
Seeing that she was determined to leave, Chen Lang rolled his eyes and said, "Fine, I'll let you go. Can you put the knife away now?"
Shen Danru was not fooled.
She didn't trust Chen Lang's character. If she removed the knife, and he changed his mind, she would be at his mercy.
"Come out with me, get the carriage ready, and I'll release you when we get to Shangqing Village."
"good."
Chen Lang followed Shen Danru outside, the knife still pressed against his neck.
The wedding guests hadn't left yet; they were all relatives of the Chen family, within five degrees of kinship. Chen Lang's parents were greeting people outside when they were startled to see the bride walking out with her arm around Chen Lang's neck.
"Father, Mother, prepare the donkey cart and let her go."
The Chen family was a wealthy household in the village, and they owned their own donkey cart. When Chen Lang's parents saw this situation, they were so frightened that they quickly sent someone to bring the donkey cart over and persuaded, "Miss Chen, we're letting you go. Can you let go now?"
Shen Danru tightened his grip on the knife and said, "Of course, I will release him once I reach a safe place."
The two walked to the donkey cart. Chen Lang's father offered to help them drive the cart, but while Shen Danru was getting on the cart, he and Chen Lang worked together to take the knife from Shen Danru's hand.
"you…"
Chen Lang's father said fiercely, "You have no choice but to obey today. We have already bowed to heaven and earth, so you are a member of the Chen family. Even if you die, you will die in the Chen family. Lang'er, take her back to her room now."
Forced into the bridal chamber by Chen Lang, Shen Danru panicked completely.
What to do? What to do?
Two hours have passed since she was abducted. Has her father found out yet?
Shen Shenru silently prayed in her mind, "System, system, do you have pepper spray?"
The system coldly rejected the question: "No."
Then it took a deep breath and said, "However, there is a poison made from poisonous plants that can be sprayed into the enemy's eyes, causing him to be blinded."
"Quick, exchange it for me."
"Sorry, host, your level is not high enough."
"Isn't that obvious?"
At this moment, Chen Lang retied Shen Danru's hands and tried to take off her clothes.
He felt like he had been waiting for this day for a very long time.
Shen Danru had no choice but to stall Chen Lang: "Wait, I have something to tell you."
