Using power to force marriage

Are you bullying her again?

A kiss is considered bullying? This is nothing.

That night, Zhao Jingnian and Ruan Fu stayed up all night together, seemingly without getting tired.

There were five or six used condoms in the trash can.

Ruan Fu cried and begged for mercy, but it was no use.

When they were in bed, Zhao Jingnian especially liked to nag her to call him "brother," which sounded more comforting than "husband."

It's probably because she always calls him "old man" that he can't stand the word "old".

After it was over, Ruan Fu nestled in his arms and fell into a deep sleep, still dazed from the ordeal.

I'm sure I'll be sleeping for a long time.

No matter how late he worked last night, Zhao Jingnian still went to work at the same time every morning without fail.

When he got up, Ruan Fu was still fast asleep.

Zhao Jingnian went to the bathroom to take a shower and noticed several bright red scratches on his shoulder in the mirror.

Thinking of Ruan Fu's expensive manicure with diamonds, he gave a lazy smile.

Last night, he cried and begged Zhao Jingnian to stop, but Zhao Jingnian didn't agree, so his little Fu baby got angry and painted some color on him with her pretty manicure.

Bright red scratches were imprinted on his back shoulder, varying in depth, giving off a somewhat decadent and alluring vibe.

I didn't feel any pain at the time, but I started to feel some pain after getting wet while taking a shower.

It has the temperament of a kitten; when it's happy, it's sweet and adorable, but when it's angry, it won't hesitate to scratch people with its claws.

Zhao Jingnian didn't take the red marks on his shoulder seriously; how much could a kitten's scratch hurt?

Since Ruan Fu moved in, Zhao Jingnian has been washing up in the next bedroom every morning, so as not to disturb her.

After changing his clothes, before leaving the house, he quietly returned to the master bedroom and covered her with the blanket.

The air conditioner in the master bedroom was set to a low temperature, as Ruan Fu was sensitive to heat and needed the room to be cool.

But she just can't sleep still; she always kicks off the covers, just like a child who never grows up.

Zhao Jingnian could only worry more and cover her with the blanket before leaving to prevent her from catching a cold.

Downstairs, Aunt Sun had prepared breakfast.

Zhao Jingnian ate a simple salad and drank a cup of black coffee.

Seeing that it was still early, he picked up the watering can from the windowsill and watered each of his plants.

These evergreen plants are easy to care for; they don't require pruning and can grow very well with just watering every three to five days.

However, Ruan Fu had placed a beautiful flowerpot next to each of the green plants, saying that she wanted him to take care of it while he was at it.

But he didn't know how to care for flowers and plants, and besides, Ruan Fu had bought all sorts of different kinds of flowers: azaleas, roses, gardenias, and more...

They come in all shapes and sizes, and shouldn't be cared for in the same way.

These delicate flowers and plants are very difficult to care for, and Zhao Jingnian couldn't figure out how to take care of them.

If too much water is poured and her flowers are drowned, given Miss Ruan's spoiled nature, she'll likely have a good tantrum.

Let's not go looking for trouble.

So he only watered the green plants he was growing and ignored her flowers.

She has to take responsibility for the flowers she wants to grow herself. How can she expect Zhao Jingnian to grow them for her?

He's not that free.

At nine o'clock in the morning, in the conference room, the project manager was reporting on the latest project planning proposal.

Zhao Jingnian, impeccably dressed in a suit, sat calmly and dignifiedly in the main seat.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was heavy and oppressive. Everyone was on high alert, not daring to slack off or lose focus.

Zhao Jingnian, however, seemed somewhat distracted.

As the project manager gave his report, he kept glancing at the man in the main seat, a cold sweat breaking out on his back.

After saying a few more words, the man in the main seat suddenly picked up his phone.

His proposal must have been so terrible that even the chairman couldn't bear to listen to it.

Could it be that there's some new progress on his overseas project, and he's replying to emails on his phone?

"Chairman, you…" the project manager asked cautiously, "What do you think of my proposal?"

He was prepared to be berated, but to his surprise, Zhao Jingnian said calmly, "That's fine, continue."

His tone was calm and even, not harsh at all, yet it sent shivers down the spines of everyone in the conference room.

The project leader took a deep breath and forced himself to continue the report.

The man in the main seat remained focused on his phone, opening his browser's search bar and typing in: "[Flower Care Course]"

The entire conference room watched his expression with bated breath, feeling that their boss's behavior today was truly abnormal.

He, on the other hand, was thinking about taking online courses and learning how to grow flowers.

Ruan Fu entrusted the flowers and plants to him, eagerly awaiting their blooming. Although Zhao Jingnian found it troublesome and a waste of time, he couldn't bear to disappoint her.

The little girl is hard to please. She knows she'll be unhappy if he doesn't help with the flowers, and then he'll have to spend time coaxing her, which will only make things more complicated.

He didn't know when it started, but Zhao Jingnian began to care about her emotions and whether she smiled so brightly today.

At noon, the sun was high in the sky.

Ruan Fu lazily turned over and stretched sleepily.

She felt exhausted and weak, her whole body, even the bones between them, felt limp.

She had only just woken up a little after sleeping until this hour, but she was feeling lazy and stayed in bed, wrapped in the blankets, unwilling to get up.

"Zhao Jingnian, I'm thirsty."

Her throat was dry and hoarse; she had been crying and making a scene all night, and she desperately needed a glass of warm water to soothe it.

He called out, but no one answered.

She groggily realized that it was already this late, and Zhao Jingnian had long since gone to work.

It was already noon. Remembering that she had arranged to have afternoon tea with several wealthy socialites at three o'clock in the afternoon, Ruan Fu lazily got out of bed.

By the time she gets up, washes, eats, and puts on makeup, it will be too late if she stays in bed any longer.

In just over half a month, her pet medical and care center will be able to open for business. After all, since she wants to do business with the wealthy, it is still very necessary to socialize with the ladies who own pets before the official opening.

For the next week, she met with several people every afternoon for tea, mainly to introduce her pet hospital and encourage them to join as members and sign up for memberships.

"That despicable Zhao Jingnian, should I praise you for still being virile, or should I scold you for your lack of restraint?"

Ever since he broke his vow that night, it was as if he had opened the floodgates of desire.

Although Ruan Fu was quite addicted to this, her small body couldn't withstand his nightly entanglements.

When Zhao Jingnian comes back tonight, I need to have a good talk with him. From now on, we can only do it twice a night at most, otherwise she will get tired.

She wasn't as energetic and vigorous as him.

Downstairs, Aunt Sun heard that she had already gotten up and washed up, so she put the prepared lunch on the table.

As instructed by Zhao Jingnian this morning, I also made a sweet soup with Imperata cylindrica, sugarcane, and water chestnuts to soothe the throat.

Ruan Fu was eating when she saw the beautiful flowers in the living room, and her mood improved.

"Aunt Sun, did Zhao Jingnian water the flowers for me?" she asked.

"No, the gentleman only watered his own plants."

Ruan Futan frowned slightly, a hint of reproach in her voice, "Hmph~ He's so selfish."
