Marriage of convenience blossoms into love; the husband turns out to be a billionaire CEO.

"You really have no manners, treating this like a casual visit. You sleep in, have a meal, and just leave without a second thought, abandoning your husband?"

Ji Lingfeng looked at her coldly, a hint of anger in his eyes.

Ye Cheng forced an awkward smile: "No... once my blood sugar spikes after eating, I feel more alert."

Ji Lingfeng looked speechless: "I think you're more like someone who's eaten too much and is now confused."

"Hehe, I'm perfectly sober now," Ye Cheng said awkwardly. "Well, I'd like to go back and tidy up the house first. We can talk about it tomorrow."

After saying that, she crouched down, tucked her head in, and tried to crawl under his arm.

Halfway down, a man's cool, languid voice came from above: "Go back? Don't forget, the house in Jingtai Garden belongs to Kim Dae-woo."

Ji Lingfeng looked down at the woman under his arm, feeling both annoyed and amused.

Did he marry a wife or an ancestor? She's always finding new ways to annoy him.

Ye Cheng's lips twitched slightly, her body frozen in mid-air.

"Oh...yes."

In truth, this is where her home should be.

She sheepishly pulled her head back, then secretly glanced at him out of the corner of her eye.

The man had a taut jawline, and although his complexion wasn't great, he was still handsome from every angle.

She was just a hair's breadth away from becoming infatuated with his good looks again.

Ye Cheng was saddened, what a pity!

"Why did such a perfectly good man have to become such a high and mighty CEO?" she muttered to herself.

Ji Lingfeng: ? ? ?

Listen to how much this woman despises him!

He was seething with anger when he blurted out, "Sorry to disappoint you."

I felt so frustrated.

Even when he played the role of a poor boy, she never complained about him!

Ye Cheng scratched the top of her head in frustration: "Look at me, we're completely incompatible. You might as well just pay the bill and send me away."

To put it bluntly, she's just an ordinary, low-class person. She simply can't handle a top-tier, rich, and handsome husband like him. It's too unrealistic; even novels wouldn't dare to write something like that.

Ji Lingfeng's brows furrowed deeply, and his expression froze inch by inch.

Bill, please??

They used to want people, not money; now they want money, not people.

His wife has a very clear mind, very good, very good!

"You could get a marriage certificate with me without really understanding what was going on before, but now that I've been honest with you, you don't want to take responsibility?"

His voice sounded calm, but he was actually furious with the woman.

Ye Cheng stammered in defense, "That's because we weren't that different before, and I didn't feel ashamed even when you lost your job, but now—"

She stopped mid-sentence.

"What now? Have I embarrassed you?"

Ji Lingfeng stepped forward, gritted his teeth, and gripped her wrist tightly, his voice carrying a hint of coldness.

Ye Cheng lowered her head and mumbled, "No... what if you don't want me anymore? I don't want to be a hurt woman."

Ji Lingfeng: "..."

He almost spat a mouthful of blood onto her face.

Who's rejecting whom? Is there any logic to this? He's the one who's hurt now!

The man stared at her with a look of utter disappointment, as if he wanted to burn a hole in her face.

Ye Cheng's eyes narrowed: "Why are you looking at me like that? It's kind of scary."

"..." She's making me so angry I could have internal injuries, and you still can't tell?

The woman continued her sassy remarks: "What do you want? Just consider it as me cheating you out of your money and your body, okay?"

Unable to bear it any longer, Ji Lingfeng suddenly pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly with his hands, and said, word by word:

"Ye Cheng, listen carefully, I like you, and I only like you!"

"I promise you, you're allowed to leave me, but I'm not allowed to leave you!"

"No—even if you don't want me, I'll still cling to you!"

Ye Cheng was dumbfounded.

She looked up and stared directly into the man's slightly reddened eyes, her head buzzing.

Is he possessed by an evil spirit or has someone cast a spell on him?!

"You... calm down." She awkwardly looked away.

"You'd better promise me first, be my wife obediently, and then I can continue to swindle you out of money and sex." The man simply adopted a shameless attitude.

Ye Cheng: ...

Since things have come to this point, it seems like it's not entirely impossible.

She murmured, "But... I could never pretend to be a young mistress, this isn't a place for me."

Ji Lingfeng tightened his grip on her hand: "Just be yourself, who wants you to pretend?"

He loved her free-spirited nature.

Even if we bicker or act a little temperamental from time to time, he is still very happy.

He paused, then poked the band-aid on his forehead with his index finger and said resignedly, "Also, if you like, you can bully me every day."

Ye Cheng blushed.

...They made her sound like a tigress who liked to abuse her husband.

She thought for a moment, then pulled her hand away from his, looking troubled. "I'm afraid I won't be used to it. It's the same as an elderly person from the countryside not being used to living in the city."

Ji Lingfeng looked at her intently: "Have you forgotten that I lived with you in Jingtai Garden for quite a few days, and I even helped you deliver food and help out at the night market stall?"

Ye Cheng: "..."

I was momentarily speechless.

"Come with me."

Ji Lingfeng grabbed her hand and led her to the terrace outside the bedroom.

The vast garden and the entire villa are hidden in the night and the twinkling lights. The wide lawn, fountain and swimming pool can be vaguely seen scattered among the gardens, showing the extravagance of the rich to the fullest.

Ye Cheng opened her mouth silently.

The man said domineeringly, "You are now standing on the most expensive land in Shenzhen. You can have anything you want, and you can decide how you want to live."

Ye Cheng stared blankly around, then shuddered thoughtfully and muttered, "My God, this kind of house is perfect for filming horror movies."

Ji Lingfeng: "..."

He silently rubbed his forehead.

It's one thing to be angry with him, but what's wrong with her? She has time to think about horror movies at a time like this?

Well, she's my wife, I should just put up with it.

However, when she upsets him, he can tease her.

He pursed his lips, his tone serious yet with a hint of amusement:

"If you really can't get used to living in a big villa, I can rebuild a comfortable one for you in the garden. Do you want a thatched hut that leaks when it rains or a mud-brick house that lets in the wind in the dead of winter?"

Ye Cheng was stunned: ...

are you crazy! !

They really made her live in a run-down house!

Ji Lingfeng gazed at her meaningfully and said quietly, "...I'm just afraid that the children will suffer in the end."

Ye Cheng was still angry when something inexplicably went wrong.

Wait, kids? Several more!

"You're dreaming," she retorted sarcastically.

Ji Lingfeng smiled slightly, pursing his lips: "Didn't you say you wanted to have three children with me?"

Ye Cheng: "..."

Her face flushed, and she stiffened her neck, "When did I say that?"

“One night you were talking in your sleep, and I could hear you clearly.”

Ye Cheng: "..."

She's such a chatterbox! Talking in her sleep about this?!

You actually believe what you're saying in your sleep!

Unable to accept it, she deliberately rolled her eyes at him, turned around, and walked into the house.

Ji Lingfeng's lips curled up. "Hmph, still so silly even after becoming a mother."

"and many more."

He stepped forward, grabbed her arm, and a smug, cold smile played on his lips: "Your belly—"
