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

Not long after Su Feng left, Ye Wenxi received a call from Wang Hao.

Wang Hao said he wanted to order a dress for Ding Jiahe to wear to a ball.

Ye Wenxi mentioned last time at the clinic that sending clothes would definitely touch Dr. Ding's heart.

Upon learning that a dance party was to be held, he immediately seized the opportunity to discuss it with Ye Wenxi.

Later, Ye Wenxi suggested that since he was her dance partner, his clothes should match as well.

Wang Hao then ordered a suit for himself as well.

Just as the two were finishing their conversation, Lu Weidong returned.

Wang Hao didn't dare to talk much; Lu Weidong's demeanor was clearly off today.

He quickly took the money out of his pocket and put it on the table.

"Sister-in-law, this is the deposit."

"I'm leaving now, Battalion Commander, Sister-in-law."

"How about we eat here together tonight?" Ye Wenxi sincerely invited.

"No, no, I have something to do, really something!"

Wang Hao waved his hands repeatedly and slipped away as if his feet were greased.

He's not blind; he could tell from Battalion Commander Lu's expression that he didn't want to stay and become cannon fodder.

After seeing Wang Hao off, Lu Weidong turned around and saw Ye Wenxi leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, watching him leisurely.

He was taken aback at first, but then the tension he felt from being seen through quickly transformed into a surging possessiveness.

He stepped forward, bent down slightly, and looked at Ye Wenxi, who was looking up at him with a slightly annoyed expression.

The tension and anxiety in my heart had transformed into a burning passion.

"I said, Battalion Commander Lu." Ye Wenxi raised an eyebrow.

"You're back so early, are you here to catch...?"

"Hmm..."

The second half of her sentence was completely silenced by Lu Weidong's lowered lips covering hers.

The kiss came suddenly and forcefully, filled with anxiety and domineering intensity.

He held her head firmly with one hand and wrapped his other arm tightly around her waist, pulling her backward involuntarily with his strength.

Ye Wenxi felt as if he had been seized by a suddenly powerful beast. He staggered and was pushed against the sideboard behind him, causing the bottles and jars on the sideboard to rattle loudly.

Lu Weidong's kiss was exceptionally fierce, even a little out of control, his teeth grinding against her lower lip with varying degrees of force.

"Hiss... um..."

Ye Wenxi groaned in pain and raised her hand to push his shoulder.

You're hurting me.

Lu Weidong then belatedly loosened his grip, realizing that he had hurt her.

His lips parted slightly, but remained pressed against her forehead, and his hands around her waist and the back of her head never loosened.

His lips brushed against her lips intermittently, a mixture of annoyance and reluctance.

Ye Wenxi couldn't push him, so she simply stopped.

"Jealous?" Her voice was still a little breathless, but with a hint of understanding.

"Just because Su Feng was asked to come and take measurements?"

Lu Weidong felt as if his mind had gone blank.

Su Feng's name was like a needle, precisely piercing his most sensitive nerve at that moment.

"He's here?" His voice was extremely deep.

"Yes, right before Wang Hao."

Ye Wenxi answered frankly and in a normal tone, even speaking on her own initiative before Ye Wenxi could ask.

He didn't know what was wrong with him.

Knowing that Wang Hao was here, he was at most a little surprised.

But the thought of Su Feng being here, right here in this house, sharing a room with her...

Even the most ordinary contact when taking measurements ignited a fire within him, burning his reason and making his blood rush.

"So..." Ye Wenxi looked at him, her voice as calm as if she were discussing the weather.

"Are you trying to make me keep my distance from the opposite sex?"

She paused, then added, clearly and directly:

"Especially...those 'outstanding' members of the opposite sex."

Ye Wenxi and Minru noticed Lu Weidong's emotions and expressed their thoughts.

She even used the word "excellent" to refer to Su Feng, and even to anything that might pose a threat to him.

She didn't evade or explain; instead, she frankly raised the topic.

The question was asked without any emotion, as if it were merely a request for his opinion.

Lu Weidong, however, seemed to be nailed to the spot, staring blankly into her eyes.

Ye Wenxi's calmness and words startled him.

In an instant, a bucket of ice water was poured over his head, instantly extinguishing all the surging anger and anxiety in his chest.

Yes, or no.

At this moment, every answer is wrong.

Lu Weidong chuckled softly, a self-deprecating laugh.

He actually subconsciously wanted to "discipline" and "control" Ye Wenxi because of this.

Even if it's just a fleeting thought, I want to keep her within my designated 'safe territory'.

The strength in his arm unconsciously loosened a little.

His voice softened, and his hand, stroking her back with apology and tenderness, gently caressed her.

"What are you saying?"

That's your freedom.

Ye Wenxi's lips curled up slightly, as if confirming the answer.

This time, the force in his hand was gentle and comforting, without any trace of the tyranny that had been mixed with annoyance and jealousy just now.

He was even somewhat relieved that he had regained consciousness in time.

He has always had many admirers and suitors.

However, apart from clearly retaliating when those people caused her actual trouble, Ye Wenxi never got angry with him because of them.

He has never felt insecure because of others coveting him.

She was confident, clear-headed, or rather, she had a clear understanding of things.

Just like what she once said to Xu Miao:

If he can really be seduced by someone else, it only means that he is not worthy of my love.

In this world of emotions, Ye Wenxi is like a free wind.

She was unwilling to be bound by worldly rules and regulations.

Naturally, she will never be easily bound by his possessiveness.

Lu Weidong knew perfectly well that if he had allowed that anxiety and possessiveness to continue to swell, it would have been disastrous.

If things went even further, and they actually made demands to restrict her interactions with men, attempting to control her social boundaries...

He will definitely disappoint Ye Wenxi.

What he least wanted to do was become someone who disappointed her.

"Lu Weidong," Ye Wenxi called out softly.

"Hmm?" Lu Weidong looked down at her.

Ye Wenxi released her hands from his chest and instead wrapped them tightly around his waist.

Then she tilted her head back and gently placed a kiss on his lips.

The kiss was neither too light nor too heavy, but it was deliberately slowed down, with a lingering tenderness.

It contained her love, and also a response to his earlier unease.

Lu Weidong's lips curled up into a smile that he couldn't suppress.

He understood that this was Ye Wenxi's way of comforting him.

After the kiss ended, Ye Wenxi looked up, a sly glint in her eyes.

Her soft hand slid down Lu Weidong's back, brushing over his firm buttocks, and gave him a light pinch.

"Don't move."

She immediately spoke up, stopping Lu Weidong's subconscious reaction.

The hand didn't stop; it continued downwards, gently pinching the tightest spot on his inner thigh.

Lu Weidong's breathing suddenly became heavy, and the arms around her tightened involuntarily.

"Don't move!"

Ye Wenxi raised her eyes and warned him again with her gaze.

"Today, you have to listen to me."

She leaned close to his ear, her breath warm:

"This is a small punishment for you..."
