Hot!
So hot!
Gu Yunsheng felt her entire body burning with heat.
“Gu Yunsheng, do you even know who I am?!”
In her daze, she vaguely heard a hoarse and weak question beside her.
She tried to push away the icy hand, but her strength was weak. The man’s inadvertent touch only made Yunsheng feel a fleeting satisfaction.
Yet the burning heat coursing through her body left her far from satisfied with this small pleasure.
Gu Yunsheng slowly pressed her face against the man’s chest. The cool skin made her involuntarily let out a muffled moan.
Her consciousness gradually blurred, her gaze finally resting on those thin lips that kept opening and closing.
She didn’t know what he was saying his words seemed endless but all she wanted was to seal those beautiful lips.
And she did.
“Give it to me.”
With that, Gu Yunsheng lowered her head and stabilized those sensual lips.
She moved along the man’s lips down to his cheek and neck.
Breathing softly, her body trembling uncontrollably, she drifted between unfamiliar pleasure and extreme discomfort.
It seemed that only by pressing against this slightly cool body could she relieve the burning heat gnawing at her bones.
Huo Chengxuan’s entire body was burning; his breathing grew rapidly.
Soon, the man took control.
“Mm…”
“I can’t… anymore…”
She didn’t know how much time had passed before the man finally stopped. Gu Yunsheng, drained of all strength, collapsed on the bed, slipping into a dazed sleep.
Huo Chengxuan lowered his gaze to the woman beside him.
His starry eyes swept over her face. Asleep, she was quiet and exceptionally obedient, unlike her usual arrogance.
Her long hair floated around her, beautiful like a blooming peony, exquisite and captivating.
His gaze drifted downward, noticing the crimson, intimate marks on her neck. In the darkness, Adam’s apple rolled slightly.
A deep shadow passed through his eyes, but he pursed his thin lips, curling them into a mocking smile.
Hmph. When morning comes, she’ll probably make a huge fuss again.
Gu Yunsheng was awakened by a strong, glaring light, shielding her eyes with a hand.
Moving stirred discomfort, especially below. She quickly looked down, seeing her body covered in purple and blue marks, along with many intimate red impressions.
She pinched herself hard. “Ouch!”
It hurt so this wasn’t a dream!
Before she could react further, the man’s cold voice sounded:
“Gu Yunsheng, if you’ve made up your mind, we’ll go apply for the divorce later.”
Looking up, she saw a man with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, 185 cm tall, with a face that could stir both admiration and resentment.
Memories flooded Gu Yunsheng’s mind, raising her eyebrows slightly.
She had transmigrated!
She had entered a book she had read before, “The Spoiled Villainous Wife in the Seventies,” set in a past era, and had become the villainous wife of the male lead.
“No. I won’t divorce.”
The words almost burst out of her mouth.
The original wife had been divorced, sold by her own parents to a fool, and died in disgrace.
She had no intention of following that path. Moreover, she already had a little life in her belly. Living comfortably with the male lead was clearly the right choice.
“Husband, it hurts…”
Huo Chengxuan lowered his gaze at her. Her small, tear-streaked face, her partially revealed curves, and the marks from last night made him avert his eyes calmly.
Indeed, he had gone too far last night. Gu Yunsheng’s unusual intimacy had made him unable to restrain himself.
Huo Chengxuan withdrew his gaze and then left.
Gu Yunsheng breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, women who acted coquettishly had the best luck, especially one as beautiful as her.
Having learned from the book, she would no longer be foolish.
This marriage must not end in divorce. If she behaved obediently, acting as the stupidly beautiful woman, she could lie back and relax once the Huo family’s fortunes were restored.
The man returned soon after, carrying a tube of ointment.
“Apply this yourself.”
Gu Yunsheng took the ointment and gently tugged at him, her voice soft and slightly pitiful:
“Husband, will you help me, please?”
Huo Chengxuan froze at the sight of her teary, imploring eyes.
His heart skipped a beat. He pursed his thin lips but ultimately took the ointment and sat on the edge of the bed.
The blanket was lifted slightly, letting cool air brush her skin. Gu Yunsheng shivered softly.
At first, the man’s movements were stiff and almost clumsy but seeing the marks on her body, his touch instinctively became gentler.
Wherever his fingers passed, Gu Yunsheng was reminded of last night’s frenzy.
She buried her face in the pillow, her ears flushed red. Once Huo Chengxuan finished applying the ointment, she sat up.
“Huo Chengxuan, let’s not divorce, okay? I won’t cause trouble anymore. What if there’s already a baby in my belly?”
Huo Chengxuan looked at her, silent for a long moment.
Since the family incident, Gu Yunsheng had been acting up, even threatening divorce.
Last night, she suddenly hugged and kissed him again. Now she claimed she wouldn’t divorce and hinted at a possible pregnancy.
He didn’t know what scheme she was plotting, but hearing her say she wouldn’t divorce and possibly was pregnant gave him a glimmer of hope.
Regardless, if she truly was pregnant, the child would be a small comfort for a family undergoing massive upheaval.
The family’s fortunes had plummeted; they might have to go to the countryside for reform, with no clear end in sight.
This woman in front of him was used to acting. Who knew what trick she had up her sleeve now?
He pursed his lips, about to speak, when a voice sounded.
Both of them turned, following the source of the sound Gu Yunsheng’s belly.
Rubbing her growling stomach, she felt a little embarrassed but it wasn’t her fault.
The original wife had starved herself to push for a divorce, not to mention last night’s exertions.
Thinking of this, she looked at Huo Chengxuan pitifully.
“I’m hungry. Is there anything to eat at home?”
Huo Chengxuan was about to answer when a knock sounded at the door.
“Shengsheng, Chengxuan, are you up? Breakfast is ready.”
Before either could respond, another voice came from outside:
“Mom, she’s been throwing a hunger strike! She deserves to be hungry. She crawled into my brother’s bed back then; now that he’s injured and the family is in trouble, she’s already eager to divorce him.”
“Wan’er, what are you saying?”
“She did all of this, why shouldn’t I speak? Back then, I was blind!”
“No, it’s clearly her shamelessness!”
Every word from outside the door was crisp and clear to both inside.
