Within the expansive private estate, lights shone brightly, teeming with people.
Jiang Man put down her wine glass and resignedly walked towards Lu Xijue, who was surrounded by people. "I appreciate all the blessings you, bosses, have given us, but tonight Xijue can't get drunk. I humbly ask you to avoid more drinks, and we will host a banquet some other day to thank you all, what do you say?"
Jiang Man disliked socializing, but at this moment, she had no choice but to interrupt the merry group of men drinking.
"Ho, Mrs. Lu has spoken, so should we continue drinking or not?"
"A moment in spring overnight is worth a thousand gold, Mrs. Lu seems anxious!"
"Ha ha... ha ha ..."
Although Jiang Man was now rightfully Mrs. Lu, this table was filled with shrewd businessmen. Their focus was not on her status, but on her position in Lu Xijue's heart and in the Lu family.
Jiang Man stood behind Lu Xijue, her hands weakly resting on his shoulders. The seemingly intimate gesture hid their expressions.
Lu Xijue had never glanced at her from the beginning, his pale hand picked up the wine glass again, but it was snatched by Jiang Man.
Suddenly, the room went silent.
No one had ever dared to snatch Lu Xijue's wine, especially a woman!
Jiang Man calmly put down the wine glass and softly said, "Stop drinking, Uncle Wu has prepared the hangover soup and sent it to the room. If you continue to drink, he may have to come and help me support you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xijue glanced at her. His eyes were as sharp as a sword. This woman dared to threaten him!
Jiang Man felt a chill run down her spine under his gaze, but she couldn't leave this gathering. She winked at Lu Xijue mischievously.
What happened to their mutual cooperation?
The old man insisted on making the wedding a lavish affair, wasn't it just to embarrass her and make him back out?
After a while, Lu XiJue's expression softened and he casually grazed Jiang Man's nose. This exceptionally doting action that others saw made the two people involved stiffen up at the same time.
No one had ever done this to her before, Jiang Man felt a tremor in her heart, looking at Lu XiJue with an increasing degree of emotion.
Lu XiJue hadn't expected his immature action to make this icy beauty's face turn red, greatly elevating his mood.
"Alright, as you wish!"
Lu XiJue stood up, swept Jiang Man into his arms, "On our wedding night, I cannot neglect my wife. Everyone else, we will catch up another day."
Since Lu XiJue had spoken thus, none of the bosses who were always trying to curry favor with him dared to say anything more. However, they gave Jiang Man a glancing look with additional eagerness.
"Haha, congratulations, Mrs. Lu!"
"Here's to Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu for having a baby soon!"
With a swift move, Lu XiJue scooped Jiang Man up in his arms, and amidst the laughter of the crowd, they lovingly stepped into their bridal chamber.
With her face turning red in embarrassment, Jiang Man was ruthlessly tossed by Lu XiJue onto the wedding bed covered in rose petals. Following suit was a tall figure!
"Hey, what are you--mm--"
Her mouth was covered by a clean, large hand, and a husky pair of words echoed at her nape: "Cooperate!"
As reason returned, Jiang Man calmed down, but she didn't know how to cooperate and looked awkwardly at the handsome face above her.
It was not the first time, did she have to act like a chaste and righteous woman?
Lu Xi Jue's face darkened completely, he buried his head into Jiang Man's neck and chest, gnawing wildly. His large hand rudely slid inside the red ceremony dress creating chaos.
The force was so strong that the pain made Jiang Man unable to help but let out continuous screams.
Outside the door, Uncle Wu who was holding the sober-up soup, hesitated for a second before resolutely opening the room door.
"Young Master, your sober-up soup is here."
Jiang Man hurriedly pushed Lu Xi Jue away, grabbed the quilt to cover herself.
"Get out!" A cold, hoarse voice revealed the owner's current dissatisfaction and endurance.
