After a long, annoying day of dealing with the board of executives, Gu Wang Yong pulled up into his garage, parking his Bugatti Veyron with great finesse. Exhausted, and feeling a great headache coming on, he looked forward to teasing his new wife again today. Her cute reactions to whenever he said something always was his medicine. And after eating her last night, he had been in a good mood until he met the board of executives for another meeting. He walked up to the front door and rung the bell, expecting a cute, sulky, wife asking why he came so late. He smiled at the very thought. But even though Gu Wang Yong waited 2 minutes, no response came, except for the butler. The butler took off Gu Wang Yong's coat, and Gu Wang Yong stormed up the stairs to Su Mei's room. He opened the door and combed the room, but did not find her anywhere in the room.
Gu Wang Yong searched the entire house, but did not find her. So he confronted the trembling head maid.
"Do you know where Su Mei is?"
"Ms. Su left in the morning, about an hour and a half after Master Gu left for work," the head maid replied. She was shaking, as she could feel the anger of Gu Wang Yong.
"Where did she go?" Gu Wang Yong asked, intensely glaring at Su Mei's door upstairs.
"I...I do not know. She took her car." And with that, the head maid scrambled away.
Gu Wang Yong was furious. She had left the house for almost 15 hours, as it was almost 10PM now. Gu Wang Yong pulled out his phone and pressed Su Mei's contact. All the servants in the living room trembled, and they started to pity Su Mei, who will have to deal with this when she got home.

Su Mei was sitting in the library, when her phone started ringing. Su Mei had already changed her ringtone from Justin Beiber's "Baby" to another song for Gu Wang Yong, so she already knew who it was.
"Could dress up, To get love, But guess what? I'm never gonna be that girl, Who's living in a Barbie world, Could wake up, And make up, And play dumb, Pretending that I need a boy, Who's gonna treat me like a toy...Mister Right could be nice for one night, But then he wanna take control, And I would rather fly solo..." sang her phone. Su Mei smiled, remembering the lyrics of "Sit Still Look Pretty". A song, she thought, that perfectly described Gu Wang Yong. She had renamed his contact from "Hubby" to "Fcking B*stard", and it made her laugh thinking about it.
"Shh, this is the library, pick up the phone!" scolded the librarian. Su Mei quickly picked it up and answered.
"Hello?" She had answered in a sweet voice, but was rolling her eyes.
"Where are you?" Gu Wang Yong asked, in a husky voice. Su Mei fangirled, grading his voice an A+.
"Try to guess~!" she said in a teasingly. Su Mei smiled.
"Where. Are. You." Gu Wang Yong gritted his teeth. "Tell me right now." Su Mei rolled her eyes and wanted to yell 'Why is that your business!' but she wanted to keep her neck, so she decided to comply.
"I'm at the library. I'll be back in 5 minutes, Sweetie!" She ended the call and made a barfing face. "Ugh, who is he to control my life! I know he was drinking with Su Ling last week." She quickly checked out the books she wanted and drove home.
A furious Gu Wang Yong was waiting in the living room, impatiently expecting Su Mei. She came in through the door with her yoga pants and a hoodie on, holding her sports bag and book bag.
"Honey, did you miss me?" Su Mei felt like barfing, but she kept her calm. Gu Wang Yong remained unperturbed.
"Sit down." Su Mei obediently sat down. Gu Wang Yong hesitated, but opened his mouth to talk.
"You are to be back by 8PM. That is your curfew." Gu Wang Yong smiled, satisfied at his solution.
"Why?" Su Mei was angry, but she smiled an angelic smile on the outside. 'Who does he think he is?!'
"Because I said so." Gu Wang Yong seemed firm on this.
"But as a married couple, we need to have some kind of...balance, you know. I can't be home at 8PM, and then you arrive at 10PM; there's unbalance. So we need to get home at the same time, you know." Su Mei kept smiling as she made her argument.
"Fine. Curfew is 10PM. Remember that," and with that, Gu Wang Yong went upstairs to sleep. Su Mei also washed up to go to sleep, and instead of going to the master bedroom, she decided to sleep in one of the guest rooms to sort her thoughts.
* * *
Gu Wang Yong was waiting in the bed, but she wasn't coming. He was starting to wonder what took her so long to wash up. He got out of bed and checked the bathroom but she wasn't there. Gu Wang Yong started to get annoyed as he realized she was planning to sleep alone.
He stormed into the guest bedroom she was lying down. Su Mei was startled, and she sat up.
"What do you need?" Su Mei put on a false smile. Gu Wang Yong, somehow feeling even more annoyed, grabbed her by the chin and kissed her. His soft lips met Su Mei's mouth, and he forcefully shoved his tongue in, entangling with her tongue.
Su Mei felt disgusted. His saliva, his tongue, both were mixing in her mouth! Su Mei forcefully bit down, causing some part of Gu Wang Yong's tongue to bleed. She angrily glared at him as his mouth departed.
"What was that for?" Gu Wang Yong fiercely asked. He was angry. Didn't she like to be kissed? He had done it before, and she said nothing. But now she was wiping her mouth and spitting like he was something...disgusting.
"You...Who said you could kiss me?" Su Mei felt thoroughly disgusted and a little nauseous. She was frustrated that this man thought he could do whatever he wanted with her. She didn't care anymore. Su Mei decided to rant it all out, even though he might do something to her after.
"As my wife, it is your duty to sit still and be kissed." Gu Wang Yong did not understand. Did not all women throw themselves into his arms, waiting to be kissed? Did seh not agree to get married to him?
"No it is not. I do not know who taught you that or told you that, but if a lady says stop, you stop. Or it's called "molesting", idiot. You think you can do everything because you are handsome and rich? Sorry, there's something called "Human Rights"! I'd like to keep my body my own, instead of being some sex doll for a man who doesn't even love me! I know you went slept with Su Ling last week after drinking, and then came home and slept with me! Are you, a man known for his self-control, cheating on his wife of 3 weeks?! I can't believe it! Men always say women are sluts, but it seems like somebody is craving for attention." At this point, Su Mei paused to catch her breath after ranting.
Gu Wang Yong was angered speechless. This woman had implied he was an attention-seeking slut and a cheating low-life!
Su Mei sighed. She decided to bring up divorce.
"Gu Wang Yong, lets divorce. I think Su Ling and you are a better match." Su Mei crossed her fingers, hoping he'd agree.
"Okay, lets divorce." Gu Wang Yong sighed. He realized Su Mei deserved to live a better life than being stuck with him. And he'd finally be able to marry Su Ling.
* * *
The next day they went to the Bureau of Civil Affairs, signing the divorce papers. He gifted Su Mei a house 3 hours away from A City, $36 million dollars as compensation, and he let her keep the Porsche 911. Su Mei gave Gu Wang Yong a hug, hopped into her car, and drove to her new house. Trembling with excitement, she opened the door of the villa, and stepped in.
"Beautiful!" exclaimed Su Mei. A chandelier hung in the lobby, with sun rays floating in through the windows and shining on the marble floor. She squealed.
"Free at last from the b*tch and the bastard!" She did a pirouette, and flopped onto on of the nearby sofas. The villa was right outside the beach, so she could visit it anytime. And with a handy sum of $36 million, she could live comfortably for the rest of her life.
Su Mei closed her eyes and fell asleep, a smile on her face.
