A whirlwind marriage with a high-ranking official: Lights out, don't force me to take the initi

Lu Weihua was extremely curious about how this woman managed to win over his second brother!

Her second brother was a prominent figure, not only famous in the compound.

Even in the military, some female soldiers or officers who had designs on him were able to use their connections to call his home.

Of these women, she considered some to be quite outstanding.

But she didn't even notice her second brother; he was like a heartless human machine.

For a while, she even suspected that her second brother might have some issues with his sexual orientation.

When she heard that he had gotten married in a flash, her first reaction was: Could it be that he found a substitute?

After Ye Wenxi and Lu Weidong entered the room, Lu Weidong would often subconsciously look at Ye Wenxi.

Whenever she spoke or smiled, Lu Weidong couldn't help but look at her.

Those eyes don't lie.

Especially the kind of restraint that comes from admiring someone, wanting to look but not daring to look too much.

What is this woman's background?

How could her second brother have fallen for her?

She won't be able to sleep tonight unless she digs something out.

Li Weihua looked at Ye Wenxi with a grin and got straight to the point.

"Second sister-in-law, how did you meet my second brother?"

"Don't...don't call me 'Second Sister-in-law,' we haven't registered our marriage yet."

"Um...didn't they tell you?"

"No, when my older brother picked me up, he told me that my second brother had brought his girlfriend home and said they were getting married."

"You wouldn't let me ask anything. So... that's why I came to ask you..."

Lu Weihua smiled, her eyes crinkling.

In the original story, Lu Weihua is a quick-witted, intelligent, and straightforward girl who doesn't get along with the original owner of the body.

They clashed openly and secretly quite a bit until the original owner left with the army, at which point things finally calmed down.

Ye Wenxi was a little stumped by her question and was thinking about how to brush it off.

With a creak, the door was pushed open.

Lu Weidong stood at the door with a cold face, wearing only a tight-fitting vest and a pair of loose shorts.

The vest clung tightly to his upper body, revealing his full chest muscles and well-defined arms.

Lu Weidong approached Ye Wenxi, his gaze looking down at her carrying an outward aggressiveness and possessiveness.

Her sexual tension was terrifying, like a fog enveloping Ye Wenxi.

Ye Wenxi glanced at him quickly, then immediately turned her face away, her ears burning slightly.

He cursed himself inwardly for being so spineless.

She is, after all, a modern woman who has "watched countless films" and has rich theoretical knowledge.

Why are you acting like a naive young girl now, getting flustered just by looking at someone?

"No... Second Brother, weren't you asleep?" Lu Weihua was startled and shrank back guiltily.

Turns out this guy wasn't asleep at all; he was "listening" here!

Without saying a word, Lu Weidong grabbed Lu Weihua's arm and carried him out the door like a chick.

"No... Second Brother! I didn't do anything! I just wanted to chat with my future sister-in-law!" Lu Weihua protested.

"She needs to rest." Lu Weidong's voice was low but firm. "Can't you sleep? I'll keep you company."

After saying that, she dragged the person back to her own room.

As soon as he opened the door, the scene inside made Lu Weidong frown.

Liu Xiuyun, her sister-in-law Li Shufen, and even Lu Xiaojun, all of them, some sitting and some standing, were waiting inside the house.

The door suddenly opened, startling them all.

Liu Xiuyun was the first to react. She stood up and walked out, patting her clothes as if to cover up her mistake.

"Ugh, well... time to sleep, time to sleep, time to sleep!"

"Xiaojun! What time is it? Why aren't you asleep yet?! Why did you insist on having us come over to play cards with you?!"

Li Shufen immediately shifted the blame to her son and glared at him.

"Yes, yes, it was all me, it was all me..."

Lu Xiaojun scratched the back of his head, chuckled awkwardly, and quickly slipped away.

The people inside quickly evacuated, laughing and joking, and went back to their own rooms.

Lu Weihua looked up at her second brother with a self-righteous air.

"You just said you wanted to talk to me!"

Lu Weidong: "........"

Having no other choice, Lu Weidong could only resort to that "official explanation" and repeat it to his sister.

Lu Weihua's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he heard this.

"Second Brother? Just one day! And you've already fallen in love??"

Lu Weidong frowned: "Stop talking nonsense about love. It's about responsibility."

"Come on," Lu Weihua scoffed, his eyes darting around as he leaned closer and lowered his voice, "How about I try to help you?"

"Try what?"

"Let's see if you really like her," Lu Weihua said with a sly smile.

Lu Weidong raised his hand and tapped her forehead lightly: "Go to sleep! Stop overthinking."

After saying that, he turned around, closed the door, and left.

Lu Weihua looked at the closed door, hugged his pillow, clicked his tongue twice, and muttered to himself.

"It's true that everything has its counter."

...

It was late at night, and the Lu family's small building was quiet; everyone had gone to sleep.

Lu Weidong lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

What happened that day was so sudden, like a boulder thrown into his otherwise peaceful life.

Even if he tried his best to remain calm, the moment he closed his eyes, Ye Wenxi's face, sometimes stubborn and sometimes calm, would uncontrollably appear before him.

He got up and went to the toilet to wash his face with cold water.

His and Ye Wenxi's rooms were both on the third floor, with their doors facing each other on the left and right.

He noticed a faint light coming from under the door of Ye Wenxi's room.

Still not asleep? Is it insomnia due to unfamiliarity with your bed, or is it anxiety?

He paused for a moment, hesitated, and then walked over.

I was about to knock on the door when I discovered it wasn't closed properly, leaving a thin crack.

He gently pushed the door open a little and saw that the table lamp was on inside.

Her figure was facing away from the door, hunched over her desk, seemingly engrossed in writing something.

He raised his hand and gently knocked twice on the open door.

Ye Wenxi was startled and turned around abruptly. She was somewhat surprised to see it was him.

"What's wrong? Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Is it convenient?" Lu Weidong stood at the door, not going inside.

Ye Wenxi glanced at the things spread out on the table and nodded: "Okay, come in."

Lu Weidong approached the desk and saw that she was sketching something on a piece of draft paper with a pencil.

The paper contains a design draft for a book cover; the lines are simple, but the layout is ingenious.

"Did you draw this?" he asked, somewhat surprised.

Ye Wenxi chuckled, a hint of self-deprecation in his voice: "Otherwise what? Is there a third person in this room?"

She grabbed the draft paper and used it to cover up the draft.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, it's not finished yet. I wish I had colored pencils to add color."

"I'll go with you to buy it tomorrow," Lu Weidong said.

Ye Wenxi smiled and said, "Thank you. Consider the money for the clothes and stationery a loan. I'll definitely pay you back when I earn more money."

"You're getting married soon, why are you still talking about lending money?"

Ye Wenxi did not continue arguing, but she had already made her plans.

After Lu Weidong finished speaking, he did not leave, but stood there as if he had something to say.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Do you really want to go to university?"
