Chen Guizhi wakes up to find she’s become the wicked supporting character in a period novel, someone who doesn’t survive past the first three chapters. To save her own skin, she publicly forces Gu Jianbang, the roughest man in the village with the worst family background and most fearsome reputation, to marry her.
On their wedding night, he draws a “no-crossing line” down the middle of the bed, his expression cold. “Stay on your side. I’m not interested in you.”
But after his wicked mother-in-law gives her a bowl of medicine, Chen Guizhi loses her senses and crawls over the line, only to be trapped in his scorching embrace by his iron-strong arm. His breath hot, he bites her earlobe and pants, “You crossed the line first. Don’t regret it.”
From then on, the cold-faced country brute turns into a devoted puppy. She thinks she’s landed a bargain of a husband, but she has no idea who he really is...
When the mastermind finally shows himself, Gu Jianbang shields her with his body, aiming his gun at the enemy. His voice hoarse, he says, “If you want to touch her, you’ll have to get past me first!”
“Gu Jianbang, we’re just living together for convenience...”
“Convenience?” He presses her against the wall, his gaze frighteningly dark. “We already have a child. Who else are you planning to live with?”
It's very beautiful, well written, and it's finished. 👍
