Using power to force marriage

As night falls, the city lights illuminate the night.

The neon lights scattered across the city like fragments of gold.

"I've already had my assistant bring your son and daughter to Xiyue Manor. You'll see them soon."

The cold, deep voice of Zhao Jingnian rang in her ears. Ruan Fu, who had been lost in thought, was startled by the voice and snapped back to reality.

Recalling their blind date ten days ago, Ruan Fu felt like she was dreaming.

At this moment, she was Zhao Jingnian's new wife in name and in fact.

The couple had just finished their wedding and were traveling together in one car to their new home, "Xi Yue Manor".

"How much longer until we get home?" she asked.

"It will probably take another 20 minutes."

It had been too long; Ruan Fu couldn't bear it any longer.

She raised her hand and removed the two hairpins from her hair, letting her long, dark hair cascade down her shoulders.

Her hair was tied up in a bun all day, and her scalp was killing her. She changed her makeup and styling several times before and after the wedding, and each one felt like a shackle.

The new Chinese-style toasting dress she was wearing was also uncomfortable, with tight straps from the thoracic spine to the lumbar spine, all designed to accentuate the wearer's perfect curves.

It's practically a beautiful torture device.

She put her hands behind her back, trying to untie the two straps to loosen her grip and catch her breath.

After fiddling around for a long time, I still couldn't solve it.

She had a slightly short temper. "I'm speechless. What kind of lousy clothes are these that are so uncomfortable?"

Ruan Fu is the kind of person who can't stand the slightest restraint, both mentally and physically.

The man witnessed her outburst and politely asked, "Do you need any help?"

Ruan Fu didn't say anything, but simply turned her sitting position so that her back was to him.

Zhao Jingnian's gaze fell on her slender, bony back. Although the light inside the car was dim, he could still see the red marks on Ruan Fu's shoulder blades caused by the stiff fabric of her dress.

He was too eager to complete the family mission, so it only took him ten days from meeting to the wedding.

Due to the rushed wedding date, Ruan Fu was unable to have her wedding dress custom-made and could only choose sample dresses from brands, which resulted in the dress not fitting properly.

He raised his hand and pressed the button, and the rear seat shelf rose up, separating the front and rear rows of space.

Then, he reached out and untied her restraints.

The back straps were too tight, leaving many red marks on Ruan Fuying's porcelain-white skin.

Ruan Fu originally just wanted him to help her untie the two straps so she could catch her breath and make it home without any problem.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Jingnian untied all the straps for her.

Ruan Fu suddenly felt relieved, as if a seal had been broken.

In this way, the entire dress will be completely removed from her body.

Ruan Fu was startled for a moment, and subconsciously covered her chest. She seemed to be frozen in place, and did not have the courage to turn around.

You should know that the dress comes with built-in bra pads, so if she takes off the dress, her upper body will be completely naked.

Why did you...?

She was about to question Zhao Jingnian when she felt her body being completely covered by his large suit jacket.

His coat still carried his unique warmth and scent.

Ruan Fu sniffed and smelled a faint scent of white musk mixed with slightly astringent bitter orange leaves, clear and cool.

This fragrance, like the other person, is understated, bland, and utterly boring.

Zhao Jingnian lowered his eyes and helped her button up her suit jacket. "We're husband and wife, there's no need to be shy."

Ruan Fu was a little annoyed. Wasn't this cunning old man taking advantage of her?

But when she looked up and met Zhao Jingnian's open and calm gaze, her temper vanished instantly.

He just wanted to make her feel more comfortable, and it seemed he really had no ulterior motives whatsoever.

Ruan Fu lost her arrogance. "Who, who's shy?"

Zhao Jingnian is 190cm tall, and his suit easily covers Ruan Fu's thighs. If a belt were added to cinch her waist, it would be a very suitable suit dress.

"Isn't it much more comfortable now that you've changed it?" he asked.

Ruan Fu gave a muffled "hmm".

The old man truly had no ill intentions whatsoever, which made her seem like she was judging a gentleman by her own petty standards.

Zhao Jingnian: "The wedding was arranged so hastily that you couldn't wear a suitable dress. I apologize for that."

Actually, it's not too bad. The only dress that didn't fit perfectly was the toast dress; the other wedding dresses were all quite suitable.

There were other suitable dresses for toasting that she could wear, but Ruan Fu just preferred this one.

But since he took the initiative to take responsibility, Ruan Fu naturally had no obligation not to hold him accountable.

"It's true that you didn't think things through, and I don't know what you're in such a hurry for."

He was indeed a bit anxious, mainly because his elders kept urging him to get married, and Zhao Jingnian wanted to settle down as soon as possible for peace and quiet.

In addition, Ruan Fu really fits her standards. If she misses out, it would be hard to find a more suitable marriage partner in the entire Beicheng. To avoid any unforeseen complications, it's only right to be in a hurry.

Ruan Fu was too lazy to pay attention to him. She had been busy with the wedding from morning till night and was already exhausted. Even speaking was difficult for her.

She moved to a seat near the car window, rested her head on the window, and took out her phone to browse WeChat.

My screen is filled with well wishes from friends. After a busy day, I finally have time to reply to their messages.

The top message is from my best friend Meng Shutan. I clicked into the chat and saw that she had sent me three voice messages ten minutes ago.

She clicked on the following in sequence:

"Fufu, the wedding gift I prepared for you has been sent directly to Xiyue Manor. The tracking information shows that it has arrived."

I took so many amazing pictures of you. You are absolutely the most beautiful bride in the world. I'll organize them and send them to your cloud drive later.

"By the way, I'd like to ask a bit of gossip: are you going to have sex with your loveless businessman husband tonight?"

The voice was being played through the speaker, and by the time Ruan Fu frantically tried to press the mute button, it was too late.

Zhao Jingnian heard it.
