"Heh."
The man sneered.
Lu Beichen saw the old man's ashen face and said, "It's not up to others to interfere in my marriage."
"You bastard! I am your father." Old Master Lu raised his voice.
Concubine Cheng frowned and tried to calm him down. "Old Master, don't be angry. You might ruin your health. Moreover, Beichen finally came to visit after such a long time, so you should calm down for now."
Lu Beichen nodded in agreement and said, "Concubine Cheng is right. Old Master, you're old now, so stop worrying about such things. You should think more about your health. After all, your youngest daughter is only in primary school. It would be a pity if you die."
Old Master Lu was so angry as he glared at Lu Beichen, but he didn't say a word for a long time.
"Beichen, don't say such things. Do you want to anger your father to death?"
Concubine Cheng anxiously comforted Old Master Lu.
Her daughter, Lu Nuo, who was still in primary school, immediately cried.
"Wuu… I don't want Daddy to die, wuu…"
Old Master Lu and Lu Beichen were speechless.
Concubine Cheng quickly grabbed her daughter's arm. "Your father is still alive. Don't cry."
Lu Beichen couldn't help but laugh. He raised his hand to cover his lips and cleared his throat.
He picked up his glass and downed the wine in one gulp.
Afterward, he stood up with one hand in his pocket and walked out.
"Third Brother, where are you going? You haven't given your decision on the Su family's marriage proposal yet." Lu Gui suddenly spoke up.
Seeing the man freeze on the spot, his heart thumped. Lu Beichen was really too scary. He usually would not make a sound to provoke the man, but if this marriage was to succeed, the Su family had agreed to fulfill one of his requests. If Lu Beichen did not agree, wouldn't he lose that chance?
Lu Beichen turned his back to the person who spoke and mocked, "Big Brother, you should take care of your own family matters."
Lu Gui's expression stiffened. He was a househusband. Yes, it was usually the wife who would be watching the house, but he was in a different case. Alas, his wife was more capable than him. Due to this, he gradually faded from the vision of the rich and powerful, as his househusband title was a joke to others.
Now that his younger brother had said it out loud, it was a tangible humiliation.
Just as Lu Gui was feeling indignant, Lu Beichen had already left the building.
As soon as he left, the people in the living room seemed to have come to life. They complained and comforted Lu Gui. Of course, there was a hint of provocation in every word they said.
Xiao Chen saw the man coming out of the villa and immediately hailed a taxi.
Lu Beichen opened the car door and got in.
"Third Master, where are we going now?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Back to Lanshan Manor." The man said in a low voice.
"Understood."
Xiao Chen was slightly surprised as he had thought that they were going to the company.
On the other hand, Lu Beichen did not know what his assistant was thinking. He closed his eyes and looked up. His slender hands were on his forehead, his long legs casually bent.
An hour later, the Rolls-Royce drove into Lanshan Manor.
It was already past eleven o'clock at night, and the servants had already gone to bed.
There was only a warm yellow light left illuminating from within the villa.
Lu Beichen opened the car door and held onto it as he got out. Oddly, he felt a little dizzy.
"What wine did that old man bring? The alcohol content is so high." Lu Beichen whispered.
Xiao Chen got out of the car. "Third Master, let me help you in."
Lu Beichen waved his hand and stopped him from reaching out.
The man dragged his still conscious body into the villa and went to the bedroom door as usual.
He pushed open the bedroom door and laid on the familiar bed in the dark.
He stretched out his arm uncomfortably and hugged a soft and fragrant pillow.
The corners of the man's lips curled up. The servants seemed to have improved at cleaning. Even the 'pillow' smelled good. He wasn't aware that he was hugging a woman, not a pillow.
Hugging the 'pillow' like this felt quite comfortable for Lu Beichen.
The man's head moved closer to the 'pillow' and rubbed against it reflexively.
Tang Wei, who was awakened from her sleep, instantly had goosebumps. She moved slightly. Even with such tight security, bad people could still break into this residence?
"Let go of me. Do you think I won't call for help?!"
Tang Wei struggled and used her hand to pull off the man's arm.
"Don't move."
Lu Beichen said impatiently, "That's odd. How is this pillow so… Disobedient…"
"Lu Beichen?"
Tang Wei cried out in surprise, "You're drunk. Get up quickly."
Lu Beichen closed his eyes. "The pillow's voice is so nice too."
Tang Wei was speechless.
She struggled to move toward the nightstand and turned on the bedside lamp.
Taking a deep breath, she looked at the man in front of her. His eyelashes were slightly raised as his eyes were closed, the ends of his eyes slightly raised. His thin lips were slightly open, as if he was a little uncomfortable.
The alcohol from his breath had a sweet smell.
The next second, Tang Wei widened her eyes and blushed.
"Am I… Am I drunk too?"
At this time, when Tang Wei was still staring at the man, he had already opened his misty eyes.
Lu Beichen looked at the woman beside him and narrowed his eyes slightly. His thin lips moved. "Who are you? Why are you on my bed?"
"Although you're good-looking, don't take advantage of me."
Tang Wei was speechless.
Someone help. Lu Beichen is so innocent and cute when he's drunk.
After a second, she realized that he had already withdrawn his arm from around her.
"We just got married today. I'm your wife," said Tang Wei.
"My wife…" Lu Beichen muttered in doubt.
She felt her scalp tingle. This man called her his wife so nicely.
"Tang Wei, you have to understand that… You…"
"Since today is our wedding night, we naturally have to sleep together."
Tang Wei gulped. She could not be pretentious at this time. After all, she was already married to Lu Beichen. It was only right for her to do her marital duties.
But...
"Then, do you know who I am?"
Although Lu Beichen was drunk, he was still a little conscious when he saw the girl's face illuminated by the bright light.
Initially, he did not want anything to happen, but Tang Wei was very attractive. She was his wife, his wife for life…
Lu Beichen thought that anything could change. His wife was Tang Wei, and she would never change. Feelings could be cultivated slowly…
"Tang Wei, my wife."
Soon after, the bedroom was instantly filled with romance.
Tang Wei was immersed in it. She didn't know how many times they had done it, but all she knew was that the man had forced her to call him 'hubby' many times.
---
The next day, the sky was bright, and the curtains that weren't closed properly revealed a small gap, to which the sunlight shone through and fell on the floor.
Tang Wei came out of the bathroom. Her makeup was beautiful and she was dressed neatly.
She looked at her watch. It was already nine o'clock. Her meeting with Director Feng was at ten o'clock. She had to leave now.
Fortunately, she had this meeting today, which would help her avoid facing Lu Beichen for a while. When she thought of what happened last night, her fair face turned red from embarrassment.
She picked up her bag and glanced at the man who was sleeping soundly before leaving the room.
Aunt Wang, who was in the living room, noticed Tang Wei's difficulty in walking, seeing how she was walking downstairs with such awkward steps.
Aunt Wang was an experienced person, so she instantly understood what had happened.
Tang Wei met the old lady's teasing gaze and braced herself to walk down. Fortunately, it was raining today and the weather was cold. Thanks to this, she had a good reason to wear a high-collared shirt.
