   "You spoiled brat, you've fallen into my hands, haven't you? Weren't you laughing at me for not being able to find a wife? Now who have I married? Watch how I ruthlessly destroy this flower!" It was their wedding night. Lu Zhao sat on the edge of the bed, pinching his bride Su Yunqi's beautiful, fair chin, and sneered coldly. He was 189 cm tall and weighed 160 kg, tall and strong. His appearance was, naturally, as rough as his physique. He had a pair of fierce, large tiger eyes, a hard face, and even thick, black eyebrows. His voice was loud and clear. He wasn't ugly; on the contrary, he gave off a ruggedly handsome feeling. He was tall, strong, and powerful, a good worker. Unfortunately, he was a notorious village bully, known for miles around, and also a good-for-nothing hooligan. He spent his days teasing people and bullying others, so at twenty-three years old, he still hadn't found a wife. "You're so annoying!" A slight pain shot through her chin. Su Yunqi opened her misty almond-shaped eyes and muttered a soft complaint, but dared not curse him again. 🍞
