In the dark night.

Because the bed was not big, Xu Manyue lay on it, her body tightly pressed against the man beside her, their skin touching, and they could clearly hear each other's breathing.

"I heard from mother that the one who was supposed to marry here was your cousin Xu Mingyue?"

Xu Manyue was slightly stunned, but quickly came to her senses, "Well, but she didn't want to marry me, so I married her."

The man lying beside her was silent for a while, then spoke again, "Then why are you willing to marry me?"

Although Xu Manyue didn't quite understand Shen Jingming's thoughts, she still answered truthfully.

"The Xu family gave me so much that I couldn't refuse. Plus, my fiancé and your fiancée like each other."

"I've thought about it carefully. You're an officer with a high salary, so it would be nice for you to marry me."

"So, I married you."

Shen Jingming raised his eyebrows. He really didn't expect that his new wife married him for this reason.

But it's normal when you think about it, he is also that kind of person.

Marriage is not necessary for him.

But if he could exchange an insignificant marriage for some irresistible benefits, it would still be difficult for him to refuse.

For example, this time, he came back not to get married, but to break off the engagement, so that he could use the marriage to find a wife in the army who would help him in his future.

"You are very direct." Shen Jingming said.

She smiled. After the conversation just now, Xu Manyue was not so nervous anymore. She smiled and turned her head to look at the man beside her.

"Isn't it better to be direct? When two people live together, being direct might save them a lot of trouble."

Shen Jingming was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and nodded in agreement, "That's indeed the case."

He was very busy with work and spent most of his time in the army. He had no time to deal with the troubles that arose in marriage, especially those that required a lot of guesswork.

Therefore, if he really gets married, this marriage should either bring him convenience in his future; or at least not cause him trouble or affect his career.

Before coming back, he had already made plans for his future career, and in this plan, he should have a wife with a good background.

After inquiring and observing, he had already preliminarily decided on a candidate, and it just so happened that the female comrade also had a good impression of him.

Unfortunately, when he just came back, he already had a wife, and his original plan was disrupted.

Xu Manyue blinked, "Just now you were the one asking me, now it's my turn to ask you."

"You ask."

To be honest, Shen Jingming was not very satisfied with his wife, but since things had become a foregone conclusion, he could only accept it.

At the same time, some basic information about Shen Jingming appeared in Xu Manyue's brain, but it was not very complete.

This information only appeared after she married into the Shen family and the system was activated.

Among them, one caught her attention.

Xu Manyue was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you have someone you like out there?"

From the basic information the system gave her, she initially concluded this person's character. This person, while adhering to a certain bottom line, puts interests above all else and is selfish and indifferent.

In other words, if he really has someone he likes outside, he might abandon her, his newly married wife, in order to be with that person.

Shen Jingming thought for a moment and said, "I had a crush on a female comrade in the army, but I'm married now. I will keep my distance from her in the future."

It’s not really a good impression, it’s just a perfect match.

That person was the daughter of his leader, and the leader wanted to match them up.

If nothing unexpected happens, the lesbian is the wife he originally planned to marry.

Xu Manyue understood.

In his previous life, Shen Jingming never came back, probably because his marriage with Xu Mingyue was over.

In this life, he came back to cancel his engagement and marry another woman.

However, judging from Shen Jingming's attitude tonight, the relationship between him and that person probably hasn't developed to the point of love, otherwise he wouldn't accept her so easily.

Shen Jingming glanced at the night scene outside the window. It was getting late.

"Any question?"

Xu Manyue thought for a moment and said, "Not yet."

Anyway, as long as he doesn't have another woman outside, other problems can be dealt with slowly.

Shen Jingming nodded, turned sideways and hugged her in his arms, undressed her, and threw them one by one on the shelf outside.

Xu Manyue's body stiffened slightly, and she began to get nervous again. Her hands subconsciously rested on the man's thin waist.

"Relax, don't be nervous." Shen Jingming noticed the woman's stiffness, paused his movements, and softened his voice a little.

Xu Manyue bit her lip, the corners of her eyes turned slightly red and misty.

A low whimper poured out between the lips and teeth.

Shen Jingming lowered his head and blocked her lips, his movements becoming more and more violent.

……

Early the next morning, light shone in from the window.

When Xu Manyue woke up, the man was no longer by her side.

She was about to get up, but as soon as she opened her legs, a pain as if she had been crushed spread throughout her body, especially in her legs, which was more severe.

By the end of last night, she had passed out.

Xu Manyue glanced at the bed sheet in the basin. It was in a mess, with bloodstains and stains all over it.

She looked down again and saw that the marks on her body were no different from the sheets in the basin.

She passed out last night and didn't wipe it.

The man was happy, and he disappeared early in the morning.

Such a man does not meet her requirements for a partner at all.

Xu Manyue put on her clothes and tidied herself up. Taking a shower was definitely not an option, and it was even difficult for her to drink water.

She could only get some water and wipe herself briefly.

After cleaning up, Xu Manyue pushed the door open with the basin in her hand. It was just dawn and the Shen family seemed to have not gotten up yet.

She first took the basin to the well in the yard and took a look. There was still some water in the well, but not much. According to the Shen family, it could only last for a month or so.

Xu Manyue just put the water into the bucket and planned to bring some water up.

Mrs. Shen was yawning, and when she saw this scene, she instantly woke up and ran over to stop it.

"Hey, what are you doing? This water is for drinking, how can you waste it?"
