[Marriage first, love later, happy ending, sweet everyday romance]
Late at night, at the old Huo family residence.
Li Ruo was pinned against the cold floor-to-ceiling window. The man behind her held her by the waist, his voice low and heated. “I hear someone gave you another love letter today?”
His kisses left her legs weak, and she could barely stand, yet she still put on a defiant front. “You’re crippled... What gives you the right to boss me around?”
The man chuckled, then abruptly turned her around and gripped her chin, forcing her to look up.
In the moonlight, his face was breathtakingly handsome. There wasn’t a trace of disfigurement.
“Crippled?” He bit the tip of her ear, his breath scorching. “You weren’t saying that when you were begging me to let you go last night.”
By day, he was Third Young Master Huo, the disfigured cripple everyone in the city avoided.
At night, he took off his mask, strode forward on his long legs, and trapped her in his arms, claiming her inch by inch.
The whole city was betting Li Ruo wouldn’t last a month. Instead, they watched Third Young Master Huo spend a fortune just to make her smile, and punish every person who had bullied her.
Only later did Li Ruo learn that his wheelchair, scars, and brooding demeanor were all an act for outsiders.
He had done it so he could marry her with a perfectly good excuse and have her all to himself after dark.
