My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my sister, and I got married to him in a flash; he went crazy.

Jiang Shutong answered the phone with one hand and carried her suitcase down the stairs with the other.

Suddenly, he lost his balance and fell down along with his suitcase.

The suitcase rolled down the stairs, and Jiang Shutong fell heavily onto the steps, scraping her hands and feeling a sharp pain in her feet.

When Pei Yichen came up, he saw Jiang Shutong sitting on the ground in a disheveled state.

A few beads of sweat still clung to the woman's forehead, her fair face was flushed, and she was gasping for breath in pain.

Pei Yichen picked up the suitcase; it was quite heavy.

No wonder a woman would fall while carrying such a heavy suitcase up five flights of stairs.

"Why won't you let me help?"

Pei Yichen glanced at the woman's swollen ankle, not understanding her act of bravado.

Jiang Shutong pouted, and stood up with the help of his outstretched hand. "I can do it. That was just an accident."

Her principle is that she will never bother others with things she can do herself.

"Really? Then I'll be going."

Pei Yichen said he would let go of her, then turned around and strode down the stairs.

"Hey, you, don't go!"

Jiang Shutong lost her footing and felt a sharp pain in her ankle. She hurriedly grabbed the stair railing to keep her balance.

This man is a cold-blooded animal.

She was, after all, his legal wife.

The man stopped, his brow furrowed with displeasure, and said coldly, "I don't call it feeding."

"Pei Yichen." Jiang Shutong took a deep breath, deciding not to argue with him. "My foot is injured. Could you help me down?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she felt the man's aura grow even colder.

"You don't even know your own husband's name, and this is how you ask for help?"

Jiang Shutong: ?

Will she be so embarrassed that she mispronounces someone's name?

Not so much.

She's looked at the marriage certificate hundreds of times; she couldn't possibly have gotten the names wrong.

She turned around and quietly took the marriage certificate out of her handbag.

When I opened it and saw the name section, I was instantly embarrassed.

Well, you can't blame her for that.

After all, every time she opened the marriage certificate, all her attention was drawn to the handsome face of the man in the photo; who would even notice the name?

Such a handsome face, what a pity, he's gay.

"Pei Yichen, I'm sorry, I made a mistake." The next second, she muttered under her breath, still unconvinced, "This... it's like you know my name..."

This was only the second time they had met.

"Jiang Shutong," Pei Yichen said calmly.

Jiang Shutong: ...

Okay, I guess he has a good memory.

She bent down to put the marriage certificate into her handbag. Because she lost her grip on the handrail, a dull pain in her ankle caused her knees to buckle, and she fell down the steps...

The expected pain did not come; instead, she fell into a broad and burning chest.

Pei Yichen caught her in his arms.

Then he simply bent down and picked her up horizontally.

Jiang Shutong screamed in fright, "Ah—!"

The man lowered his eyes. "If you make another sound, I'll throw you down."

Upon meeting the man's unwavering gaze, Jiang Shutong immediately shut her mouth.

Seeing Pei Yichen intending to carry her with one arm and the suitcase with the other, Jiang Shutong was so frightened that she clung tightly to the man's neck with both arms, "Pei Yichen, you can't do this, it's too dangerous..."

She knew how heavy her suitcase was, and she didn't want to drop it again.

Men hate being told they can't do it.

Pei Yichen responded to her doubts with his actions, easily lifting the suitcase with his left hand, holding her with his right, and steadily walking down the steps.

Jiang Shutong didn't dare to breathe loudly, and to lighten his burden, she held him tightly with both hands.

Her hair brushed lightly against Pei Yichen's neck like feathers, making the man tense up.

The softness of her chest pressed against mine could be felt through the thin shirt.

The woman's warm breath still lingered in his ear, making his throat feel dry.

After finally reaching the top of the five-story staircase, Jiang Shutong struggled to get down, saying, "I can get down and walk by myself..."

The man wouldn't let go, only scoffing, "If you want to worsen your injuries, I don't have time to hold you every day."

Jiang Shutong: ...

Half an hour later, Pei Yichen took her to the hospital's emergency room.

After the examination, the doctor instructed her, "You can apply ice packs for the next two days, 15 minutes each time, three to four times a day. Also, you can't walk for the next two days; you need to rest more."

"Okay, thank you, doctor."

The nurse quickly brought ice and applied it to her.

The cool, refreshing touch instantly relieved the excruciating pain in my ankle.

Pei Yichen walked to the window and answered a work call.

He should usually be working overtime at the company at this time, but today he wasted a lot of time because of this nominal wife.

Women are such a hassle.

His tall figure cast a shadow on the window.

A well-tailored suit perfectly accentuates a man's broad shoulders and narrow waist.

She has a great figure.

Jiang Shutong couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

She had just felt his strong, powerful pectoral muscles with her own eyes...

Thinking of this, her cheeks immediately flushed crimson.

No, what on earth is she thinking?

I should probably think about how to ask the company for leave these next two days.

After applying ice, Jiang Shutong, along with the medicine prescribed by the doctor, was taken by Pei Yichen to Mingjing Garden.

As soon as Jiang Shutong entered the room, Pei Yichen threw her onto the leather sofa.

Seeing that he had carried her all the way, yet his face was not flushed and he was not out of breath.

It seems he has a regular workout routine; no wonder his whole body is so stiff.

Jiang Shutong began to look around the house.

The apartment is fully furnished, but because it's in a high-end community, the furnishings are more luxurious than those in ordinary communities.

However, it is estimated that Pei Yichen has only recently moved in, as the living room appears very empty.

At that moment, the bathroom door was opened from the inside.

A young man wearing a bathrobe came out.

Upon seeing Jiang Shutong on the sofa, the other person was immediately startled, "President... President's wife?"

After receiving a cold, warning look from Pei Yichen, Li Kai swallowed back the words he was about to say and instead said, "Hello, sister-in-law..."

His showerhead suddenly broke, so he asked the CEO in advance to come over and take a shower.

But the CEO didn't say that he and his wife had reconciled and that he was bringing her back tonight.

Jiang Shutong's eyes nearly popped out when she saw Li Kai walk out.

Pei Yichen actually brought a man home.

So, will the three of them be living together from now on?

Feeling Pei Yichen's cold gaze, Li Kai nervously tugged at his bathrobe. "Brother Pei... um, I'm done showering, I'll head back now."

He then looked at Jiang Shutong, "Sister-in-law, I'm Pei Ge's colleague, and I live next door. If there's anything else you need to furnish the house, you can contact me again..."

Jiang Shutong replied blankly, "Uh, okay."

Watching Li Kai's hasty retreat, Jiang Shutong's mind went completely blank.

At this moment, Du Siqi was practically a goddess in her heart!

That prediction was spot on!

Her husband, whom she married off, is actually gay.

It's just unclear whether Pei Yichen is on top or bottom.
