My Wife Is a Little Feisty

Four people sit around the table in the living room, the atmosphere icy. Gu's father: “How did you two become husband and wife?” “I tricked her into marrying me.” Mo Shen answers quickly, speaking before Gu Nian can. He doesn't look the least bit embarrassed. Gu's father gives him a cold look. “You're divorced now.” “I lied to her. There's no way I'd divorce her.” Mo Shen answers again before anyone else can. Gu's mother keeps her eyes on Mo Shen, still scrutinizing him. “They say you abused Nian Nian.” “Impossible.” Mo Shen jumps in again, ignoring Gu's parents' stares and looking only at Gu Nian. “I couldn't love her more. How could I ever abuse her?” Gu Nian's brows twitch, and she smiles at Mo Shen. Under the table, where they can't see, Gu Nian is stepping hard on Mo Shen's foot.
