"Very good," he said again. "From now on, wait for me to come home every day. Don't let Aunt Gui do any of these things anymore."
She nodded subconsciously again.
Having achieved his goal, he turned around and headed upstairs.
As she watched him leave, she suddenly thought of something—she had spent hours here not to help him take off his suit jacket! "Wait!" she called.
He stopped in his tracks and turned around.
"You…" She wanted to denounce him, but when she saw his expressionless face, she didn't know how to open her mouth. In the end, she mustered her courage and said, "You secretly did something to prevent me from passing those companies' interviews, right?"
"Seems like you're not stupid." He didn't deny it.
The anger in her heart surged. "Why?! Lu Shifeng! I've abided by your rules not to touch a camera. You want me to get married to you, and I complied. Why do you have to interfere even when I'm looking for a job?!" She didn't have much freedom left to begin with. Did he have to turn her into a puppet?!
He looked at her calmly. "I've said it before. You're not allowed to disobey my orders."
He did not have the habit of talking nonsense with others. He was already very patient with her. Since she did not listen to him, he could only use actions to set the rules.
She laughed in anger. "I'm your wife! Not your slave!"
He frowned. "I didn't take you for a slave."
"Then what right do you have to interfere with me?!" She shouted at him. "Lu Shifeng, I want to work! Do you hear me? I want to work! I don't care what you think, but I need a job! Even if you don't allow it, I will continue to look for one. Do you own all the companies in the world? I believe that I can always find a company that doesn't have anything to do with you!"
"You can try," Lu Shifeng said.
Indeed, the Lu family was one of the wealthiest families in the city. However, in this prosperous city, the Pei family of Imperial Entertainment alone could rival them. So, what if she could find a company that was under the Pei family? When the time came, as long as Lu Shifeng went to greet them, he believed that the Pei family would give him face.
At the end of the day, he was the heir to a wealthy family while she had nothing.
Su Xingyu was infuriated with him. From his words, she knew she did not stand a chance.
Her eyes were red, and she spoke without thinking. "You can't do everything as you wish! If you won't allow me to find a job, I'll… I'll pick up a camera again and take photos for you to see! Lu Shifeng, don't think of using nude photos to threaten me. Now that I'm your wife, if you want to embarrass me, you'll just be embarrassed as well!"
His expression darkened instantly. He strode back to her and grabbed her collar. "Try saying that again."
"I said I want to take photos!" She raised her neck and looked at him fearlessly. "Kill me if you dare!"
He raised his hand and swung it at her face!
Her heart tightened, and she instinctively closed her eyes, waiting for the fiery slap to land on her face.
However, after waiting for a long time, the slap did not land.
She heard his deep voice, "Su Xingyu, I've indulged you too much."
Before she could react, he picked her up and carried her upstairs!
The world spun around her, and she cried out in surprise. She opened her eyes, and only then did she realize that her body was in the air, and he was carrying her in a highly ambiguous position, with one of his hands pressed tightly on her hips. Because of the interview today, she had only worn a thin and short one-step skirt. Now that he was carrying her, she was upside down and exposed. Most of his palm pressed directly on the stockings under her skirt. The hot touch made her feel ashamed, angry, and terrified. She kicked and screamed, "Let go of me! Let go!"
However, he was unmoved. He strode to the bedroom and threw her on the spacious and luxurious bed.
Her clothes were in a mess, and she felt that her bones were about to break. She struggled to get up, but he had pressed her back to the bed.
His eyes were dark as he pressed himself against her. "Su Xingyu, you should be taught a lesson."
No matter how stupid she was, she understood what he wanted to do. She struggled even harder. "Lu Shifeng, you promised not to touch me! You, you promised to give me a month!" This was the only thing she could rely on. This was his promise. "You can't go back on your words!"
"If you can do it, why can't I?" He had a cold smile, and he slowly unbuttoned her shirt. "You even promised me that you would never touch a camera in this lifetime. Have you forgotten?"
"I…" He undid her buttons one by one. Soon, he exposed her snow-white skin under his invasive gaze, making her heart feel cold. She was scared and desperately wanted to protect her chest, that she cried out, "I promise you! I won't touch a camera! I was just saying those words out of anger. You… don't be like this…!"
However, he continued to smile coldly and lifted her chin with one hand. He seemed to like this action very much. "Out of anger? Su Xingyu, I don't like to talk nonsense with people who go back on their words. This time, you must be taught a lesson." His slightly rough fingers gently caressed her lips. The strange feeling made her shiver uncontrollably. He leaned over and kissed her. Without much effort, he pried open her teeth. Their lips and tongues intertwined.
Her breathing was uneven. She wanted to tell him to stop, but he had already blocked her lips.
In a moment of desperation, she bit down hard on him. The metallic taste of blood quickly spread between their lips and teeth. She felt his assault pause, and then the cold and thin lips left hers. She looked at him with fear.
He was still on top of her, looking down at her with an unfathomable expression.
She looked at the blood on his lips and was frightened. She knew how temperamental this man was. Now that she had offended him like this, would he…
"I…" She wanted to apologize and tell him she didn't mean it.
She wanted to escape. She cried and crawled to the bed on all fours. However, he effortlessly grabbed her ankle and dragged her back.
