Newlyweds got the wrong marriage certificate, and his sweet, delicate wife is experiencing morning s

Without her big customer, Jiang Momo had no choice but to go to the lobby to do other things.

Just as I was about to go to the kitchen to help, my phone suddenly vibrated in my pocket.

She took it out and saw the words "Mr. Li" displayed on the screen.

My heart suddenly started racing.

She bit her lip, jogged to the corner at the end of the corridor, and answered the phone.

"Feed?"

Where is it?

Jiang Momo swallowed hard and spoke vaguely.

"Hmm... I'm at home. What's up?"

"I'll be there in half an hour to take you to the old house; Grandpa wants to see you."

"Huh? But—"

The call has already ended.

Jiang Momo stared at her phone screen, her mind buzzing.

It would take her at least half an hour to get back from the club by taxi, not to mention she was still wearing the club's uniform.

Jiang Momo felt like the sky was about to fall.

He quickly changed his clothes, grabbed his bag, and ran outside.

"Supervisor, I have to go now, it's urgent!"

"Hey, you haven't signed out yet—"

Jiang Momo had already rushed out of the gate and was frantically waving for a taxi on the roadside.

In order to get back in time, she reluctantly doubled the fare and finally managed to get home a minute before Li Jiuyuan arrived.

She had just caught her breath when the door was opened.

Li Jiuyuan's gaze swept from her disheveled hair to her slightly reddened nose, and then to the curves of her chest that heaved violently from running.

The neckline of the knitted sweater was slightly open, revealing a section of fair collarbone, which was still covered with fine beads of sweat.

His eyes narrowed slightly, a half-smile playing on his lips.

"It's hot?"

"...Uh, yes, a little."

Jiang Momo felt extremely guilty and didn't dare to look up at him. "You come in first, I'll go take a shower—"

Before she could finish speaking, Li Jiuyuan suddenly leaned forward, grabbed her waist, and pinned her against the entrance.

He lowered his head, his nose almost touching hers, their breaths mingling.

His voice was so low it sounded like it was being ground from his chest, carrying a dangerous undertone.

"I need it too, so let's do it together."

The next second, he bent down and picked her up in his arms.

"Mr. Li!"

Jiang Momo cried out in surprise and instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck. Through the thin fabric of his clothes, she could feel the burning heat emanating from his body.

Li Jiuyuan let out a low growl and kicked open the bathroom door.

"Mr. Li, wait a moment—"

"Shhh."

His index finger touched her lips, his dark eyes reflecting her face.

"I don't want to hear it now."

The bathroom door was pushed open and closed again. Jiang Momo was pressed against the tiled wall, her back against the cold wall, and his burning hot body in front of her.

The alternating hot and cold sensations made her tremble all over, her fingers clinging to his shoulders, her nails digging into his shirt.

Amidst the misty air, he kissed her, from head to toe, marking every inch of her body anew.

The Li family's old residence is located in the center of Beijing, a quiet oasis amidst the hustle and bustle.

The courtyard house has five sections, with blue bricks and gray tiles, upturned eaves, and covered walkways connecting each section. There are two old locust trees in the middle of the courtyard, with trunks so thick that it takes two people to hug them, and they are at least a hundred years old.

This is the true foundation of Beijing's top elite families.

When the two arrived, Old Master Li was already waiting in the main hall.

The old man is eighty-two years old this year. His silver hair is neatly combed, and he is leaning on a cane. Although his face is sickly pale, he is in good spirits.

Upon seeing the two enter, his previously somewhat cloudy eyes suddenly lit up.

"This must be Vivi, right? Come here and let Grandpa take a look."

Jiang Momo obediently stepped forward, stood in front of the old man, and bowed slightly.

"Hello, Grandpa."

Today she was wearing a pale yellow dress, and her face was only covered with a thin layer of BB cream, making her look exceptionally well-behaved and innocent.

The old man held her hand, looking at her with increasing satisfaction.

"Good, good, you're a good boy. You're lucky."

Li Jiuyuan stood to the side, expressionless, revealing no emotion.

The old man held Jiang Momo's hand tightly, looking at her with a smile, and spoke frankly.

"Weiwei, Grandpa's health isn't what it used to be, and I just want to see my great-grandson before I die. You young people should start trying to conceive, so that Grandpa can hold his great-grandson as soon as possible."

Jiang Momo's face turned bright red instantly.

She never expected that this would be what her elders said to her when she first met them.

"grandfather……"

She called out softly, her head bowed, unsure how to respond.

The old man was extremely pleased with her obedient and shy demeanor.

"Look at this child, how well-behaved and docile he is."

He paused, glanced at Li Jiuyuan, and spoke with a hint of warning.

"Don't you dare bully them, kid."

Li Jiuyuan picked up his teacup, took a slow sip, and said in a calm voice, "No."

Just then, footsteps came from behind the screen, and a middle-aged woman wearing a dark red cheongsam came out.

Her hair was neatly styled, and her makeup was exquisite and appropriate. She looked like a lady who had been immersed in the world of the wealthy for decades and had the rules ingrained in her bones.

It was Gu Lanzhi, Li Jiuyuan's mother.

This was Jiang Momo's first time meeting her mother-in-law, and from that one meeting, she knew this mother-in-law was not someone to be trifled with.

As expected, after the meal, the old man called Li Jiuyuan to the tea room for tea.

As soon as the two left, Gu Lanzhi couldn't hold back anymore.

She picked up the covered teacup in front of her, took a small sip, and then put the teacup down.

When he looked at Jiang Momo again, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"Weiwei, come here for a moment."

Jiang Momo's heart skipped a beat, but she still obediently stood up and walked to Gu Lanzhi.

"Mom, you called me."

Gu Lanzhi glanced at her slowly and deliberately.

"Do you know who Jiuyuan's original arranged marriage partner was?"

Jiang Momo blinked and shook her head.

"She is the daughter of the Shen family."

She picked up the teacup and gently skimmed the foam. "You know the Shen family, right? They're one of the four great families, and they're a good match for our Li family. I watched Zhiyi grow up. She's proficient in everything from music and chess to calligraphy and painting. She graduated with a master's degree from Oxford University and now runs her own art investment company."

She paused, her gaze towards Jiang Momo carrying a hint of disdain.

"I was somewhat surprised that Jiuyuan chose you."

Jiang Momo lowered her eyelashes and didn't reply.

She naturally understood what her mother-in-law meant.

She is not good enough for her son.

But so what?

This marriage was never what she wanted, and she didn't care at all.

Therefore, she remained silent and did not utter a sound.

Gu Lanzhi was waiting for her answer.

After a few seconds, I realized that she didn't seem to be listening at all.

Gu Lanzhi's fingertips, which were gripping the teacup, turned white instantly, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

If she can't control Li Jiuyuan, can't she control this little brat?

"Of course. Now that we've registered our marriage, we're part of the Li family."

Gu Lanzhi chuckled lightly, her smile utterly cold and indifferent.

"To be a daughter-in-law of the Li family, you must understand the rules of the Li family."

"When a new bride enters the household, it is natural to offer incense to Jiuyuan's deceased father. You came in a hurry last time, and we didn't have time to make up for this custom. Today is the perfect day to complete the ritual."

Jiang Momo stared at the dark memorial tablet in front of her and the prayer mat placed in front of it, her fingernails digging into her palms.

She didn't want to kneel.

If I don't kneel, my mother-in-law will be unhappy.

If the mother-in-law is unhappy, the Jiang family will be unhappy, and then the grandmother's medical expenses will be gone.

Jiang Momo took a deep breath and slowly knelt down on the prayer mat.

Gu Lanzhi looked down at her kneeling before the memorial tablet, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"Offer incense."
