Xu Rui walked like a ghost, and it was obvious that he was drunk. He walked towards Jiang Xiyu's yard in a staggering manner.

Gulin frowned, but did not show up.

After Xu Rui walked to the door, he pushed hard, but it didn't open.

Xu Rui knew that Jiang Xiyu must have locked the house again. He used to respect Jiang Xiyu, but when he thought about what happened today, anger suddenly rushed to his head and he kicked the door hard.

Jiang Xiyu, who was hungry in a dream, suddenly opened his eyes after hearing the noise, sat up from the bed, picked up the dagger on the pillow, and looked at the door with a vigilant look.

"Who's out there?"

I thought to myself that it shouldn’t be the masked man. After all, every time he came, he was quiet and shouldn’t make such a big noise.

But apart from him, who else would dare to break into her room in the middle of the night?

Just when Jiang Xiyu was daydreaming, a black shadow came in front of her, lifted the gauze curtain, and a strong smell of alcohol came from his body. Jiang Xiyu frowned and subconsciously stabbed at him with the dagger in her hand.

Xu Rui was drunk and wanted to be intimate with her, but he didn't expect her to suddenly stab him with a dagger. He sobered up in an instant, dodged to the side, and grabbed her hand, "Xi'er, it's me."

"Xu Rui." Jiang Xiyu was stunned when she heard Xu Rui's voice. "Why is it you?"

Xu Rui narrowed his eyes suddenly, and stared at Jiang Xiyu with a sinister look in his slightly drunken eyes. "Who do you think it is?"

Jiang Xiyu didn't see his expression. Listening to the questioning in his words, she was speechless at the thought of Xu Rui doing this so late at night. "Who else would be so crazy as to kick the door in the middle of the night except for the bad guys?"

Xu Rui choked, holding Jiang Xiyu's hand even tighter, and said through gritted teeth, "You lock the door early every day, turn off the lights and go to bed, don't you want to consummate your marriage with me?"

Jiang Xiyu coughed lightly with a guilty conscience, waved Xu Rui's hand away, turned around and stuffed the dagger back under the pillow, and said in a calm tone, "I thought I had made it clear a long time ago that you don't love me, but I don't want you to touch me. I thought you could understand me."

Looking at her slender figure, coupled with the grievance in her words, Xu Rui didn't know whether he was drunk or what, but he couldn't help but move forward and hug Jiang Xiyu's waist, saying tenderly, "Xi'er."

Jiang Xiyu felt sick and struggled to push him away, but Xu Rui refused to let go.

"Xu Rui, will you let me go?"

Gulin, who was outside the house, heard Jiang Xiyu's shout and rushed into the room in a flash.

Inside the room, Xu Rui hugged Jiang Xiyu tightly, refusing to let go, "Xi'er, be good and don't resist me like this."

These words were like a needle, directly piercing the most painful part of Jiang Xiyu's heart.

The voice roared, "Xu Rui, what do you think of me? I wasn't obedient enough before, but you took my obedience for granted and used me. Your whole family treated me like a fool. You gave all my things to your mansion to fill the hole, and in return, you received all kinds of insults."

In her previous life, because she loved him, no matter what Xu Rui did to her, she was very obedient. However, all she got was nothing except having her wrists cut and her blood drawn.

Jiang Xiyu's words made Gulin, who was rushing in, stop in his tracks.

At this moment, he finally realized that Jiang Xiyu and Xu Rui were husband and wife, and it was inappropriate for him to appear now.

Even if they haven't consummated their marriage yet, it might not be because they don't have feelings for each other.

There was a hint of desolation in his eyes.

After a while, Xu Rui mumbled, "I'm sorry, I neglected you before. It's all my fault. I will make it up to you in the future." These words sounded like a joke. Jiang Xiyu pushed him away forcefully and turned around with a cold expression. "Xu Rui, to be honest, you came here so late tonight just to confront me about the King of Qin. Why bother pretending to be affectionate?"

Her straightforward words not only made Xu Rong frown, but also made Gulin's face change drastically outside the house.

Did Xu Rui really come to embarrass her because of what he said?

Gulin, who originally wanted to leave, stayed again because of Jiang Xiyu's words.

Xu Rui's face darkened when his thoughts were exposed, but he softened his voice the next second and explained, "I believe you."

Jiang Xiyu sneered, this was an admission.

He said, "You don't have to believe it."

Looking at her current appearance, Xu Rui looked at Jiang Xiyu with a look of unfamiliarity in his eyes.

I don’t know when it started, but Jiang Xiyu, who used to have eyes full of him, now looks at him with a very strange look, not to mention resisting his intimate actions.

But he also knew that Jiang Xiyu would not betray him, because although he was away, he knew something about the situation in the Marquis' Mansion.

Since she got married, she has been taking care of everything in the mansion and has not had any contact with Gulin. In addition, Xu Rui does not believe that Gulin can shake his position in Jiang Xiyu's heart given her feelings for him.

But just because she doesn't have any feelings for Gulin doesn't mean that Gulin doesn't have any improper thoughts about her.

After all, considering Gulin's usually cold and indifferent personality, what he said suddenly today was definitely not just a casual remark.

"Xi'er, don't be like this. I just want to consummate our marriage. Don't belittle yourself like this."

Jiang Xiyu didn't expect her to say that and looked at her strangely, but the next second she felt insulted and said angrily, "Xu Rui, don't you feel hurt by what you said? You didn't love me in the first place, so why are you so persistent in consummating your marriage with me? Do you think possessing me gives you a sense of accomplishment?"

"You are my legitimate wife, and it is your duty to consummate our marriage."

Xu Rui was very angry when he said this, but after he said that, he felt a little regretful. However, in order to maintain his dignity, Xu Rui still kept a straight face.

Jiang Xiyu stared at him intently. For some reason, all the grievances in her heart, whether from her past life or this life, suddenly burst out as if a floodgate had been opened, and tears flowed down her face.

Xu Rui panicked instantly and spoke softly, "I, I will definitely love you in the future."

Looking at the blank check written by Xu Rui, Jiang Xiyu raised her hand to wipe away her tears. She felt that she was a little hypocritical, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth. "Xu Rui, do you think you believe what you said? Besides, it's not necessary."

If he had heard such a promise in his previous life, he would have jumped for joy, but now when he heard it, he just felt that Xu Rui was extremely hypocritical.

Seeing Jiang Xiyu's attitude, Xu Rui panicked and took Jiang Xiyu's hand and said, "Xier, you have to believe me, I will definitely work hard to fall in love with you. We don't have to be obsessed with the present. After we consummate our marriage, maybe I will fall in love with you even faster."

Seeing that Xu Rui's words were so disgusting, Jiang Xiyu simply shook off his hand.
