A whirlwind marriage with a high-ranking official: Lights out, don't force me to take the initi

The woman walked quickly closer, a smile plastered on her face.

His eyes darted back and forth between Ye Wenxi and Lu Weidong:

"Is that really Moon Hee? I almost didn't recognize her!"

"Your outfit and complexion are so different from when you were in our village!"

Ye Wenxi paused, but didn't turn around; her voice was very calm:

You've mistaken me for someone else.

Let's go.

"Hey? Aren't you the adopted daughter of the Xu family?"

The woman raised her voice:

"I'm Aunt Liu, have you forgotten?"

Lu Weidong's face darkened abruptly upon hearing the word "adoption".

Ye Wenxi didn't respond or look at her again, and turned to continue walking forward.

Lu Weidong stepped aside to shield her, then turned to look at the woman with icy eyes:

You've mistaken me for someone else.

Liu Shufen was taken aback by Lu Weidong's gaze and didn't dare to ask any further questions.

Mistaken identity?

Liu Shufen thought to herself: How could she possibly admit her mistake?

The girl from Xu the Cripple's family is beautiful; she's famous throughout the surrounding villages.

Even with her terrible memory, she can't forget.

Even if they look the same.

How can a person's voice and walking style be exactly the same?

She hadn't seen that girl in a long time.

Didn't Xu the Cripple say she was missing?

So that's where you came from...

Liu Shufen did not follow.

I just stood at a distance and watched the two of them get into the jeep.

As the car drove past her, she caught a glimpse of the military license plate hanging on the front of the vehicle.

"A military vehicle?"

She muttered something under her breath.

He secretly memorized the license plate number.

......

It was very quiet inside the Jeep.

Ye Wenxi did not speak.

Just now, when the car started, she caught a glimpse of Liu Shufen following her out in the rearview mirror.

They were spotted by people from that village anyway.

She originally intended to pretend that "Ye Wenxi" was already dead.

He completely severed ties with that village and those people.

Especially that bastard adoptive father.

But I never expected that we would run into each other by such a coincidence.

She wasn't worried about what the villagers could do to her.

I'm just worried that someone might use this as an excuse to make trouble.

Or perhaps more details will emerge that show differences between the original owner and her.

That's a bit troublesome...

Lu Weidong turned his head.

Seeing that Ye Wenxi's brows were still furrowed, he roughly understood what was going on.

The other party knew my name and even mentioned adoption.

Adding to Ye Wenxi's reaction...

Most of them are from their hometown.

He reached out and grasped Ye Wenxi's hand, gently squeezing it:

Don't let irrelevant people spoil your mood.

"Hmm... let's go to the mall." Ye Wenxi didn't continue the conversation.

She just gave him a faint smile.

"Okay," Lu Weidong replied and drove towards the mall.

...

The two strolled around the mall for a long time.

Most of the time is spent at the fabric counter.

Ye Wenxi selected a lot of materials suitable for use in winter and spring.

Plain cotton fabrics of various colors...

Various cotton fabrics printed with tiny floral patterns...

She plans to make some children's clothing samples using fresh fabrics in colors such as red and yellow.

As a new model before the Spring Festival.

There's also thick velvet and crisp nylon yarn.

There are even rare silks and brocades.

It's delicate and smooth, perfect for making linings for women's shirts and pajamas.

She also picked out some cotton fabric suitable for making shirts for Lu Weidong.

In addition to these, she also selected some soft and skin-friendly materials to make some close-fitting clothes and bedding.

......

By the time she finished choosing, the counter was piled high with items.

"Comrade, are you running a tailor shop?"

"More or less," Ye Wenxi replied with a smile.

"No wonder..."

The saleswoman enthusiastically pointed to several rolls of thick navy blue and dark gray cotton fabric next to her.

"But why didn't you buy these materials?"

"These sell best; they're durable and cheap, saving you a lot more than the ones you just picked out!"

Ye Wenxi glanced at the most common colors and fabrics on the street, and simply smiled:

"Oh, we already have these at home."

She pointed to a few other fabrics nearby, fabrics she had noticed but hadn't bought all of:

"Excuse me, could you cut some sample fabric for me? I can pay extra, fabric coupons are fine too."

"Okay, I'll cut you a small strip too."

"Thank you, big sister."

This trip to buy fabric cost over a hundred yuan, inside and out.

While the sales clerk was cutting the sample fabric, Lu Weidong slowly turned back.

"Where did you go?" Ye Wenxi pouted slightly.

Lu Weidong said he was going to the restroom, but he took so long.

"Um... I'll tell you later."

"Did you buy something?" Ye Wenxi asked.

He smiled but didn't answer, instead pointing to the pile of fabric on the counter:

"I'll put the car up first."

Ye Wenxi watched his retreating figure and thought to herself: Little brat, still too embarrassed to say it?

The two wandered around the department store for a while longer.

I bought some design supplies and an electric kettle.

There are also some better quality daily necessities that the service store doesn't have.

They piled up all the bags and packages on the car.

As soon as Ye Wenxi closed the car door, he smiled and adopted an "interrogation" stance:

"Tell me, what were you doing behind my back just now?"

Lu Weidong took out a small red velvet bag from his coat pocket.

Open it and pour it into your palm.

A gold ring lay inside.

Ye Wenxi turned his head:

"Did you go buy me a ring?"

"Did you buy it with that fifty dollars?"

Lu Weidong pulled her right hand over: "That's not important."

As he spoke, he gently slipped the ring onto her ring finger.

The ring is a very common plain band, smooth and without any patterns.

Lu Weidong's voice was low, but very steady:

"I heard that you have to give a ring when you get married."

"I didn't prepare anything for you."

"Add it now."

"When you see it in the future, you'll remember what I said today."

His tone was serious, and his expression was focused.

Ye Wenxi remained silent and listened quietly.

"Ye Wenxi, you are my wife, my love."

"Now it is, and it will be in the future."

"No matter who you were before, or what happened to you."

"The one I, Lu Weidong, love is you."

So... are you willing to believe in me and rely on me?

Ye Wenxi's pupils trembled slightly.

Lu Weidong's words, his eyes.

She was absolutely certain.

This was said to her.

These were words spoken to the real Ye Wenxi inside this body.

His eyes seemed to pierce through her body, speaking directly to her soul.

So did he notice her concerns?

So did he sense her detachment and unease?

Ye Wenxi's eyes and expression at this moment had already given the answer silently.

Yes.

She does have secrets and things she's hiding.

His intuitions were not unfounded.

Lu Weidong gripped her hand tightly, which was already adorned with a ring.

Looking into her eyes, which were still trembling.

Ye Wenxi did not answer directly, and Lu Weidong did not press for an answer.

He lowered his head and kissed the gold ring on her ring finger.

"Lu Weidong..." Ye Wenxi called him softly.

But I got stuck on the second half of the sentence.

It felt like there were a thousand words stuck in my throat, but I didn't know where to begin or how to even begin.

"What if I were a spy?"

Lu Weidong chuckled softly.

Like hearing something particularly funny.

"What if what happens to me is far beyond your imagination?"

He was still smiling, but his eyes seemed to say: You know the answer already.

"But if I..."

Ye Wenxi stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.

She swallowed it back.

Lu Weidong's eyes flickered slightly.

Ye Wenxi sighed and changed the subject:

"Actually... that woman today is from my hometown."

"You know, I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore."

"That's why I pretended not to know her."

Lu Weidong gripped her hand tightly:

Don't worry.

"With me here, you don't need to worry."

He lowered his head and kissed the back of her hand again.

The moment I lowered my eyes.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, one that Ye Wenxi had never seen before.
