On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!

Su Chenxi choked for a moment; even a casual remark had offended him.

"Oh! I won't say that again." Su Chenxi obediently corrected herself.

Under the warm yellow light, Su Chenxi's raised face was beautiful and alluring, seemingly arousing the man's inner desires again. He placed one hand on her face, and Su Chenxi subconsciously struggled slightly.

"No..." Before Su Chenxi could finish speaking, the man's lips came down and began to suck on her lips.

With a gentle flick of his tongue, Su Chenxi panicked, her slightly parted mouth allowing the man to frantically probe inside.

Su Chenxi glared at him with half-open eyes, annoyed. The man narrowed his eyes smugly, their breaths mingling.

This man's kissing skills were superb; he explored and teased her at times, leaving her mouth numb and her breathing rapid.

"Ugh..." Su Chenxi's body went limp, her eyes glazed over.

The man wasn't much better off. Shen Yanchuan felt his blood boiling, all screaming for one thing.

Want her.

Finally, the man released her only when his body seemed about to explode.

Su Chenxi bit her slightly swollen lips, pushed him away, and walked towards the living room. Shen Yanchuan wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with his slender fingers, and his thin lips curled up.

Su Chenxi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her pretty face flushed and her body still feeling a little weak. Being with this man was just too dangerous.

There was always a sense of danger that he would take advantage of me completely.

She was also glad that she hadn't gone that far with him, so that he could save his virginity for his next wife.

Shen Yanchuan brought over a cup of tea and handed it to her, asking, "How's the scenery?"

Su Chenxi took the tea, looked up and asked, "Do you deliver food? I'm a little hungry."

Shen Yanchuan chuckled, "Do you only think about eating takeout all day long?"

Su Chenxi felt a little embarrassed. Looking back at his luxurious living room, she realized that eating takeout would really be out of place!

"Wait, I'll make it for you." Shen Yanchuan glanced at the time. "Give me half an hour."

Su Chenxi was a little surprised, "You're making this for me?"

"Want to help out?" Shen Yanchuan asked, narrowing his eyes.

Su Chenxi followed him into the kitchen and watched as the man opened the refrigerator and took out fresh ingredients: steak and pasta. The man skillfully began to marinate the steak.

"Tonight's dinner is steak and pasta," the man announced.

Su Chenxi couldn't help but feel excited. She couldn't really help much because she didn't know how to cook Western food or what ingredients to prepare.

Standing behind him, the man rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong forearms. From behind, he had broad shoulders, a narrow waist, a pert bottom, and long legs, with proportions as perfect as a manga protagonist.

In a woman's eyes, such a figure would be absolutely perfect.

"Is there anything I can help you prepare?" Su Chenxi asked.

Shen Yanchuan turned his head and glanced at her with a smile, "You can start eating now!"

Su Chenxi smiled and said, "Okay, Chef Shen."

Shen Yanchuan didn't seem like someone who was cooking for the first time. He had a good grasp of every step and his knife skills in cutting vegetables were neat and crisp. It was clear that he was someone who had cooked before.

"When did you learn to cook?" Su Chenxi asked curiously.

"During the ten years I pretended to be lame, I would go abroad for a six-month vacation every year, actually to manage my company overseas. I didn't dare to employ too many people around me, so cooking was an essential skill for me."

Su Chenxi looked at him with heartache, thinking that although she was an illegitimate child, her mother was still alive, while he lost both parents when he was sixteen. In order to stand out in the Shen family, he silently endured so many difficult days.

If you want to be prominent in public, you must suffer in private. How much suffering and grievances has he endured in places unseen by others?

As she thought about it, Su Chenxi's eyes welled up with tears, and she suddenly wanted to hug him.

But she suppressed that thought. She felt sorry for him, but she could only feel sorry for him silently in her heart and dared not show it.

"Tell me about yourself! Didn't you learn how to cook Western food when you were studying abroad?" Shen Yanchuan asked curiously as he turned around.

Su Chenxi smiled and said, "I'm busy working and don't have time to cook. I eat in the cafeteria all the time."

"work to earn a living?"

"Yes! I support myself by studying abroad and working part-time." Su Chenxi smiled. Although those part-time jobs were tough, they were also a kind of experience for personal growth.

"You're pretty good," Shen Yanchuan praised.

Su Chenxi paused for a few seconds, then smiled, "At least I never thought of giving up."

Shen Yanchuan said to her, "Pass me a plate."

Su Chenxi opened the sterilizer, took out a clean plate and handed it to him. Shen Yanchuan took it, put the side dishes in, and started grilling the veal steaks.

Su Chenxi found him quite charming as he focused on cooking.

"Why did Gu Heting suddenly confess his feelings to you? Did you tell him anything?" Shen Yanchuan suddenly asked.

Gu Heting had been quite distant before, but his sudden confession today seemed unusual.

Su Chenxi said helplessly, "It was Jiang Yao who approached him and spread rumors about our relationship."

"what relationship?"

“Last night, my friend and I were resting at a hotel when Jiang Yao found out. She went to Gu Heting and said that I had been kicked out of the Shen family by him. He only came to find me because he was concerned about me,” Su Chenxi explained.

Shen Yanchuan already had a bad impression of the Jiang family, and after hearing about this, he felt even more that the Jiang family members were like clowns jumping around.

"So he knew you had the divorce papers?" Shen Yanchuan asked while frying his steak.

Su Chenxi was still thinking of keeping this a secret, but she didn't expect him to ask. She could only nod and say, "Jiang Yao told him."

Shen Yanchuan chuckled coldly, "Does the guy surnamed Gu think he has a chance?"

Su Chenxi bit her lower lip, refusing to respond.

Shen Yanchuan turned his head and stared at her. "Even if I divorce you a year later as agreed, I will not allow any man to pursue you."

Su Chenxi smoothed her long hair, exuding charm, and said with a hint of amusement, "You're still interfering in my life even after the divorce? Do you live by the sea? Why are you so nosy?"

"So what if I care?" Shen Yanchuan replied domineeringly.

Su Chenxi was momentarily speechless, then smiled and said, "We divorced amicably, and we can still be friends after the divorce."

"Who wants to be friends with you?" Shen Yanchuan glared at her irritably.

Su Chenxi choked for a moment, "Oh! I'm not worthy to be your friend."

"I want to make you my lover," the man said matter-of-factly.

Su Chenxi looked at him speechlessly.

Shen Yanchuan arranged the two steaks on a plate and poured the prepared black pepper sauce over them. The aroma immediately filled the air, whetting the appetite.

"If you won't be my wife, then you can be my mistress for life." Shen Yanchuan reached out and pulled her close, kissing her red lips. "I've thought it over. Divorce is fine, but leaving me is not."
