Her face flushed bright red instantly, and even her fair neck turned pink.

He, however, remained impeccably dressed in a black, ascetic suit, his gold-rimmed glasses reflecting a cool, collected light. The stark contrast between his extreme seriousness and his extreme ambiguity assaulted her senses.

"What are you thinking about? Why is your face so red?" he asked leisurely, his large hand firmly supporting her waist.

"No, no," she said, her eyes darting around. "Maybe... it's just a little hot."

Because of nervousness, her chest rose and fell slightly, and her alluring curves were faintly visible through her slightly open cardigan.

Pei Yanzhou's eyes instantly darkened.

He stared at her, his voice carrying an undeniable command: "Don't unbutton your shirt until you come back."

Shu Hua was taken aback, then immediately understood.

Ha, quite possessive.

Her inner rebellious spirit was stirred; she raised her chin slightly, a hint of defiance in her voice: "What if... I insist on untying it?"

She blinked, a hint of smugness in her eyes: "Anyway, you can't see it."

Pei Yanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly behind his glasses, a dangerous aura emanating from him: "Are you sure you want to go against me?"

"What's wrong?" She hadn't realized the danger approaching.

The next second, the man's kiss landed hard!

It wasn't a kiss; it was more like a punishing bite.

He seized her lips, forcefully pried open her teeth, and entangled his tongue with her inescapable tongue.

"Well……"

Shu Hua was caught off guard by the sudden intensity and instinctively leaned back, trying to escape.

But his large hand was faster; he pressed down on her slender back and forcefully pulled her back into his arms.

She was forced to straighten her chest, her delicate swan neck and exquisite collarbone fully exposed to him.

Pei Yanzhou's kiss followed, tracing a path down her neck. Her slightly cool cardigan slipped off her shoulder, and his burning lips precisely captured that soft spot, sucking and caressing it fiercely.

A tingling electric current instantly coursed through her body, leaving Shu Hua limp and powerless, clinging helplessly to his shoulder as she endured his mark.

Only when a fresh, more vibrant red mark bloomed on her chest did he move upwards with satisfaction and kiss her smooth, fair shoulder.

She had been wondering why this person buttoned their clothes starting from the bottom, and then took a while to button the top two buttons. Now she completely understood…

"Is it still okay?" he gasped, his voice hoarse.

Shu Hua's eyes were misty with tears, and she was breathing heavily, completely terrified.

She quickly shook her head.

Those who understand the times are wise!

If she continues to argue with him, she might not be able to leave this house today.

"good."

Pei Yanzhou kissed the top of her head with satisfaction, helped her button up her clothes, and gently patted her back to help her catch her breath.

"The card I gave you has no credit limit. Buy whatever you like."

Shu Hua nestled against his chest and nodded obediently: "Aren't you afraid I'll spend all your money?"

A low chuckle came from above, filled with absolute confidence: "Even if you spend a hundred million a day, starting from a hundred years ago, I still wouldn't be able to spend it all."

"..."

Shu Hua's mind was racing with calculations.

Well, this marriage was a great deal. The husband is handsome, has a great physique, and is rich beyond measure—a huge win!

"I might have to work overtime tonight." He ruffled her hair. "Go to sleep first, don't wait for me."

She snuggled against him and said softly, "Then... I'll leave the light on for you."

As soon as she finished speaking, she clearly felt Pei Yanzhou's body stiffen almost imperceptibly.

A brief silence fell over the room.

He had been busy with his career and was used to a routine, solitary life, but now, because of her words, a ripple suddenly stirred in his heart.

-

The afternoon sun, like scattered gold, spilled into the private booths of the rooftop garden at the Platinum Hyatt Hotel.

Shu Hua's long, slightly wavy hair, like seaweed, cascaded lazily over her shoulders, revealing her delicate, jade-like collarbone. She tilted her head slightly, gently stirring her rose latte with a small silver spoon, exuding an air of both innocence and allure, captivating with charm.

"bite-"

Chi Yuchu, Shu Hua's best friend, slammed down her coffee cup and leaned forward abruptly. Her beautiful eyes locked onto the small, ambiguous red mark below Shu Hua's ear that wasn't completely covered by foundation.

"Baby, you..." Chi Yuchu lowered her voice, each word filled with barely suppressed excitement and teasing, "You two newlyweds are having a very intense battle."

Shu Hua subconsciously raised her hand to touch her earlobe, her delicate face instantly turning completely red, like a ripe peach. Her eyes darted around, "W-what?"

"Still pretending?" Chi Yuchu raised an eyebrow smugly, extending her exquisitely manicured finger to point at the "evidence" from a distance. "What's this? Hmm? This mosquito is so wild! And in such a tricky spot!"

Shu Hua's face turned even redder.

Unfortunately, fragments of last night flashed through her mind: the dim, hazy light, Pei Yanzhou's burning body temperature, his taut abdominal muscles, and his heavy, suppressed breathing, buried in her neck…

What calm and self-control? It completely spiraled out of control later on!

Chi Yuchu shook her head, a knowing look on her face. "Look at that blushing face, that radiant look, it's obvious she's been thoroughly pampered. Is President Pei as ruthless as his name suggests, like a wolf or a tiger?"

"You...you shouldn't be making wild guesses!" Shu Hua didn't dare to look at her best friend's all-knowing gaze and murmured softly, "He...he's actually quite gentle."

She felt guilty saying those words.

"Gentle?" Chi Yuchu leaned closer with a mischievous grin. "Baby, in these kinds of things, a man's 'gentleness' is often just the prelude~ Tell me the details! Doesn't his abs feel amazing? Did you see his V-line?"

"Chi Xiaochu!" Shu Hua was so embarrassed she almost jumped up from her chair, reaching out to cover her mouth, her ears burning red. "You...you little hooligan! Don't say another word!"

Her meager strength was no match for Chi Yuchu.

Chi Yuchu dodged away and continued her "in-depth analysis": "Tsk tsk, looks like I was right! I knew it! The more a man like Pei Yanzhou usually appears in a suit and tie, aloof and aloof, like an iceberg that keeps strangers at bay, the more explosive he is in private! Poor little cabbage of ours, it's only the first night, and she's already been thoroughly taken!"

"He didn't!" Shu Hua instinctively defended him, her voice soft and sweet, yet earnest. "He... he's a very good person." At least, he was very considerate of her feelings in the beginning, although... he got a little out of control later.
