Wei tilted his head in curiosity.

Lihua said, "Didn't you see how your ex-fiance was glaring at me so hatefully? She was shooting death beams at me as if she wanted to kill me."

His face darkened.

"And your Grandma was boiling in lava as well. I think they will definitely try to pull some scheme."

"I won't let them bully you."

She shook her head. "No. Let them do what they want. As long as we can prove it, we will win."

"I see. That will be a faster method."

She chuckled. "Yes. But even if I win that way, I won't stop myself from gaining everybody's trust. I still want everyone to accept me. Only then can a family live peacefully. With tension and arguments around, it will be just a mess everyday."

Wei didn't care about any of that. He wasn't close or attached to his family. So he didn't bother with what others thought about him.

But if Lihua wanted that, he would never oppose her.

"Okay."

Lihua beamed. Suddenly, she felt conscious of their position. Inadvertently, once again her sight settled on his lips.

W-wait, now that we are in the same room, are we supposed to sleep on the same bed? We are married so…

But then we are as good as strangers…

Her mind was giving her the logical advice of keeping her distance from him until they would slowly get closer.

But her heart on the other hand was telling her to chuck such righteous thoughts out of the window.

Idiot! You are married to such a Godly handsome man that any woman could only dream of even catching a glimpse and you want to behave as a righteous woman? Are you nuts?

Well...h-heart is more right…

But her confusion melted instantly when Wei took the charge himself. At such a close distance with their bodies pressed so intimately against each other, it was hard for him to control his desire. He was unable to resist her beautiful face.

Applying a slight pressure with his index finger on her chin, he turned her head to face him and kissed her lips. Lihua's eyes widened in shock, feeling the soft contact of his lips on hers.

His kiss was so enchanting and enthralling that she felt her skin tingle in excitement. He glided across her lips like a gentle wind softly blowing and rustling the leaves. His manly smell invaded her nostrils, and a sense of dizziness took over her head. She felt lighter as if she was floating in the sky.

The more hungrily he captured her lips, the more she craved for the kiss too. She didn't know what took over her, but she couldn't resist herself and kissed him back. From the corner of her lips, he traveled akin to a thirsty man searching for his oasis. His tongue darted and it slid across her lips, taking in her sweet taste.

Sucking and pulling her lower lip, he bit his teeth in her soft flesh. She softly moaned. Kissing fervently for a long time, they finally parted breathlessly. She felt the moist sensation lingering on her lips. Wei's misty gaze swept across her neck and her breasts. He let out a sharp breath. His palms itched with the urge to squeeze her soft breasts as he did last night. He recalled how perfectly it fit in his hands and how delicate and supple they were.

Even though they were married, Lihua had no memory of last night or how intimate they already were. For her, he was still a stranger. He didn't want to scare her by going any further until her feelings as Jiang Lixue also deepened for him.

He cleared his throat. "You must be tired. Let's take a bath and head to sleep."

Lihua blushed.

B-bath together?

"You head first. I will wait."

She coughed and looked away in embarrassment. "O-Okay."

Stupid Lixue for thinking that!

A while later, both were done and changed into their night pyjamas. She looked at the bed and wondered if they would sleep together. Her cheeks turned red in a little anticipation. She knew that nothing was going to happen between them, but the thought of sleeping in his arms made her drool.

She nervously twirled her fingers. "That will we…"

Wei gave it a deep thought. If they slept together, he would definitely want to eat her up. Her smell would make it impossible for him to resist.

What if I couldn't control myself?

He sincerely said, "I will sleep on the couch."

Lihua's hopes deflated akin to a balloon sapped out of its air. "Why?"

Wei rapidly blinked his eyes, looking at her disappointed expression. He partly thought that Lihua might feel uncomfortable too. But here, she made a face against his expectations.

"I mean we are married...so before I lost my memory, we would have been sleeping together, right?"

He slightly stiffened.

Technically, today was their first wedding night.

"Y-Yes…" he lied.

Lihua shyly lowered her head, unable to hold back her silly grin. "So, I don't mind if we sleep together."

His body turned as stiff as a log of wood. He imagined his sleepless night and recalled how hard it was that night when they slept together in his apartment. It was a torture bearing all the incredible heat.

Lihua noticed his thoughtful expression and sulked.

I thought we kissed, so it won't be a problem…

Wei lifted his gaze and froze to see her downcast face. He quickly climbed on the bed much to her shock. "Of course, we will sleep together."

No way could he bear Lihua's saddened face.

She beamed. "Really?"

"En."

He rested his head on the pillow and pulled Lihua in his arms. Her left profile softly bumped on his sturdy chest.

Ahhh! So sexy!

The smell of fresh soap twitched her nostrils. She felt as if a big teddy bear was hugging her.

"Is this okay?" His breathy voice rang in her ears.

"E-En…"

She raised her small head and peeked at him to find him affectionately smiling at her. "That...how should I call you?"

Wei went into a stupor.

Boss!

Boss, look I tried an omelette today!

Hehe, Boss is the best!

Wei looked back at her. "Call me Wei."
