She was tricked into marriage for three years, then remarried a childless, tough guy and became preg

The Huo Xiuyuan before her was someone Shen Tang had never seen before; he was unrestrained and wicked, and the force on his wrist was domineering, leaving no room for resistance.

Shen Tang looked at him, her heart pounding.

She silently berated herself: Shen Tang, you're so pathetic. We're arguing! What are you doing, acting all lovestruck?

Huo Xiuyuan tightened his grip on her waist and pulled her forward.

"She's got quite a wild side." Huo Xiuyuan's gaze swept over her face, then landed on her lips, and he kissed her domineeringly.

His kiss was anything but gentle; it was even fierce, almost punishing. His newly sprouted stubble prickled and tickled Shen Tang's neck.

Shen Tang had no strength left to be angry, and leaned against him, feeling weak all over.

"Behave yourself now? Are you still going to fight or not?"

Huo Xiuyuan looked at her flushed face and gently rubbed his nose against hers.

Shen Tang lowered her head, her chest heaving.

"Have something to eat." Huo Xiuyuan took out a brown paper package from his pocket and handed it to Shen Tang.

Shen Tang reached out and took it; inside was a still-warm meat pie.

Huo Xiuyuan led her to a rock by the river, squatted down, and wiped her face with his sleeve. "Sit here and eat."

He turned around, picked up the washbasin, and started washing clothes.

Shen Tang took a bite of the meat pie, the aroma of meat mixed with the fragrance of the pie filling her mouth, and Shen Tang squinted her eyes in satisfaction.

I haven't had meat since I came here.

Huo Xiuyuan turned to look at her while washing clothes, his eyes filled with tenderness.

Huo Xiuyuan washed the clothes and hung them on the tree branches next to him to dry.

He sat down next to Shen Tang. "Are you still angry?"

"Sheng." Shen Tang pursed her lips and looked away.

"I was wrong, I'm sorry," Huo Xiuyuan said in a low voice.

"I can't hear you." Shen Tang's lips curled into a smile.

"Honey, I was wrong, please don't be angry."

The word "wife" made Shen Tang's bones melt. She turned her head and saw Huo Xiuyuan's fluffy head nuzzling towards her.

"Who's your wife?" Shen Tang backed away.

Huo Xiuyuan hooked his arm around hers and rested his head on her shoulder.

"You are my wife, and you will be for life."

"Where did you go wrong?" Shen Tang asked coldly.

"I shouldn't lose my temper, I shouldn't misunderstand my wife, and I especially shouldn't distrust her."

"That's more like it," Shen Tang said, reaching out to pat the "big dog's" head. "Jealous all of them? None of them can compare to you!"

"You're so handsome, so manly. Look at these muscles, so perfect..." Shen Tang's hand moved down her hair to her shoulder, then slid down her shoulder and into her collar.

The bodyguard, Xiao Liu, walked over from behind, blinking as he looked at the man leaning on Shen Tang's shoulder.

He called out uncertainly, "Commander Huo?"

Huo Xiuyuan jumped to his feet, cleared his throat, turned around and saw Xiao Liu, frowning as he asked, "What are you doing?"

"Um, Company Commander, could you please tell me about the afternoon's arrangements?" Xiao Liu said, head down, unable to suppress a laugh.

"Are you just bored and have nothing better to do? It's lunch break time. If you don't want to rest, go and rebuild the wall around Zhang Dazhuang's house," Huo Xiuyuan said coldly.

"Huh?" Xiao Liu's face was more bitter than a bitter gourd.

"Get lost!" Huo Xiuyuan said irritably.

"Yes." Xiao Liu took a few steps forward, then turned back and asked, "Do we still need to build the wall?"

Huo Xiuyuan glared at him, and he quickly turned and ran away.

Shen Tang couldn't help but laugh. Huo Xiuyuan sat down and pulled her into his arms.

"Are you tired? Do you want to take a nap?"

"Mm." Shen Tang nodded.

Huo Xiuyuan leaned back against the tree trunk, and Shen Tang rested her head on his lap. Both of them closed their eyes.

A gentle breeze rustles through the leaves, carrying the sweet scent of pine trees; the sound of flowing water fills the air, and time flows quietly by...

When Shen Tang woke up, she opened her eyes and saw Huo Xiuyuan's raised chin, which was indeed as sharp as if it had been carved by a knife.

His Adam's apple stood out prominently on his neck, showcasing the power of his hormones. The collar of his shirt was tightly fastened, and the muscles in his chest were taut and bulging.

Shen Tang couldn't help but swallow. Huo Xiuyuan was still asleep, his long eyelashes covering his eyelids.

She pursed her lips, gently stood up, and carefully examined him.

How can someone have such a perfect face? High brow bones, long eyelashes, and a high, straight nose.

It's said that men with big noses are very strong in bed.

Shen Tang's gaze followed his face downwards and landed on his belt.

"What are you looking at?" Huo Xiuyuan opened his eyes slightly and looked down at Shen Tang.

Shen Tang's breath hitched. His voice was languid and husky, almost bewitching.

Shen Tang cupped his face and kissed him. Huo Xiuyuan was slightly taken aback, but did not respond, looking at her with his eyes lowered.

Seeing that he remained unmoved, Shen Tang kissed his earlobe. Huo Xiuyuan's jaw tightened, and his hand hanging by his side clenched into a fist.

Shen Tang looked at him, smiled slightly, and turned her head to kiss his Adam's apple. Huo Xiuyuan's body trembled slightly. A soft little hand slipped inside his clothes, tracing the lines of his abdominal muscles.

"I've heard that some people are all looks and no substance. I wonder if that's true, Commander Huo?" Shen Tang asked, staring at him.

"So eager? Once we get the marriage certificate, I'll let you verify it properly." Huo Xiuyuan's gaze was as deep as ink.

"Commander Huo seems even more anxious than I am, look—"

Huo Xiuyuan grabbed her hand. "Shen Tang, you're such a vixen!"

Huo Xiuyuan's lips followed, but Shen Tang tilted her head to avoid them, a smile playing on her lips: If you won't let me kiss you, then naturally I won't let you kiss me either.

Huo Xiuyuan pressed his tongue against his cheek. "Can you dodge it? Hmm?"

He raised an eyebrow, bound Shen Tang's hands behind her back with one hand, and held the back of her neck with the other. He lowered his head and kissed her lips, frantically invading and forcefully taking her.

"Mmm..." Shen Tang was so overwhelmed by his kisses that she couldn't breathe. She pounded on his chest, but Huo Xiuyuan held her even tighter.

Shen Tang suddenly pushed him and slapped him across the face.

Huo Xiuyuan chuckled, pressed down on her back, and kissed her even more passionately.

After a long while, the storm subsided.

Shen Tang chuckled, "Huo Xiuyuan, did it feel good to hit you?"

Huo Xiuyuan looked down at her, a smile in his eyes.

"Huo Xiuyuan, you're a bit of a pervert."

After Shen Tang finished speaking, she stood up and began to collect the clothes. Huo Xiuyuan stared at her back.

"Shen Tang, when we get back, I'll go with you back to the village to get the certificate."

Shen Tang paused for a moment as she was putting away the clothes.

Yes, these days you still need a certificate from the village to get married.

"Okay," Shen Tang replied.

But she still felt a little dazed. Was she really going to get married?

Before she came here, she had never thought about getting married. She had already bought insurance for herself in the modern world and planned to adopt a child in the future.

They've only been here a few months, and they're already getting married.

A smile appeared on Shen Tang's lips as she turned to look at Huo Xiuyuan. Huo Xiuyuan stood up and walked towards her, hugging her from behind and saying softly, "I have a surprise for you tonight."

Shen Tang's lips curled into a mischievous smile. "What surprise?"
