He had just smoked a few cigarettes in the corridor, hoping to make things clear.

He lit the cigarette and smoked several mouthfuls, each one very heavy, one of them soon turning to ashes, then another.

Perhaps it was when Jian Ran wasn't even willing to give him an explanation that he got angry.

He was her husband, and he would have believed her no matter what she said to explain herself, but she didn't even want to give him an answer.

What was wrong with that Gu fella? Why did she have to get involved with him after he hurt her so much?

In Qin Yue's eyes, Gu Nanjing was just an arrogant second generation ancestor who didn't know his place in the world.

Furthermore, he had never put Gu Nanjing in his eyes before. Never would he have thought that he would be inferior to Gu Nanjing in Jian Ran's case.

Thinking about Gu Nanjing's childhood sweetheart, that kind of relationship was indeed the purest of emotions, but wasn't that already over?

He was very clear that Jian Ran was now Qin Yue's wife and would live with him for the rest of his life.

Qin Yue didn't know why he felt such a strong desire for possession. This desire was something he had never experienced before. It was so strong that even he himself felt that it was inconceivable.

At that moment, there was only one thought in Qin Yue's mind. If he could get this woman, take her, and let her become his woman, then she wouldn't be able to run away.

What a naive and ridiculous idea, but it really appeared in Qin Yue's mind, so fast that he didn't even have the time to buffer himself.

Thinking about him, Qin Yue, who was 22 years old and had officially taken over the Sheng Tian, the huge business empire from his father, all these years, no matter how big the storm was, nothing could disturb his rationality.

Qin Yue couldn't figure out why Jian Ran suddenly became so possessive towards him.

Was it because she was his wife? Or for some other reason?

This was the first time that a decisive man in the business world didn't even know what he was thinking.

It was very quiet in the car.

With Qin Yue's eyes closed, Jian Ran looked out of the window. Both of them were living in their own i

er world.

Many times when the two of them were together, it was always Jian Ran who took the initiative to find a topic to talk to, because she knew that Qin Yue was cold and talkative. The chances of him taking the initiative to chat were pitifully small.

Jian Ran didn't mind taking the initiative every time. When two people lived together, there would always be one who took the initiative, being passive and complementing each other. Only then would they be able to live for a long time.

However, it was true that Jian Ran did not want to find a topic to talk about today. She did not know what to say, nor did she even want to see him.

The two of them stayed silent all the way back home. No one said a word.

After returning home, Qin Yue went to the study room as usual.

Jian Ran changed out of her gown, found needle and thread, and fixed the broken parts with needle after needle.

Since she had her own experience in designing clothes, Jian Ran added a little of her own efforts to make up for it.

Perhaps this was a disrespect to the original designer, but when she thought about it just now, the usually sensible Jian Ran was unable to control her own actions.

All these years, she had changed to a job that had nothing to do with clothing design. She tried hard not to think about clothing design, but her deep love for it still couldn't be forgotten.

Jian Ran didn't know whether this dress was bought or rented. She packed it up and washed it tomorrow.

It was almost one in the morning after she had showered, but Qin Yue was still in the study room.

As usual, Jian Ran went to bed first.

Jian Ran didn't know how long she had slept, but when she was in a daze, she felt the other side of the bed being lowered gently, and immediately after, Qin Yue was lying beside her.

He approached her and pulled her into his embrace, calling her name in a low voice, "Jian Ran …"

Actually, Jian Ran hadn't been sleeping very deeply all this time. When he lay down, she had already woken up, but she didn't say anything.

But when he put his arm around her, her body froze, and she thought back to tonight's party.

He had ravaged her so wildly and tyra

ically that at that moment it was as if she had seen a demon that might swallow her up.

"Jian Ran …" Qin Yue wanted to say what happened tonight. He was very sorry, but he felt that apologizing was the most useless thing in the world.

Anyone could say those nice things, but they might not be able to do them, so he couldn't say them out loud.

Especially when he saw the marks he'd made on her neck, collarbone, and slightly open chest, he couldn't speak.

Her skin was white and tender, and the marks he made were shocking, as if he were silently recounting his gross crimes.

"Jian Ran …" He whispered her name again.

Jian Ran moved away from him and put some distance between them. "It's too late, go to sleep," she said calmly.

Jian Ran's calm estrangement made Qin Yue's heart clench. He felt a feeling he had never experienced before.

Qin Yue didn't say anything, he just looked at her back quietly and didn't fall asleep for a long time.

They didn't say anything about what had happened at the di

er party, as if they could pretend that nothing had happened at the di

er party and live as calmly as ever.

However, not knowing that certain things should be said frankly was the best way to deal with it. If they didn't talk about it, it would be like burying a fuse for the future.

The next day, Jian Ran slept until late in the morning.

It was the weekend, so he didn't need to go to work. Since he had nothing else to do, sleeping lazily was the best way to enjoy himself.

When she opened her eyes, she instinctively looked towards the window, but she still saw a man and a dog.

But today, Qin Yue didn't have any newspapers in his hands. He stood by the window and looked out, seemingly in silence. No one knew what he was thinking about.

Mian Mian squatted at his feet, rolling around from time to time on the ground. It was because she was too bored that she thought of using this method to attract attention.

Qin Yue looked back and whispered, "I'm awake."

Jian Ran nodded and didn't say anything after hearing Qin Yue's sexy and pleasant voice.

Mian Mian ran over and hugged him, patting his head. "Darling, mom will be taking a vacation today. I can accompany you now."

"Woof woof woof …" Mian Mian whined a few times and rubbed Jian Ran's chest a few times as if she was very happy.

"Get up and pack up. I'll wait for you for lunch." After a pause, Qin Yue added, "How about we go for a walk together in the afternoon?"

They have been married for so long, but Qin Yue was free every weekend. Other than the last time they went to Bluesea Villa, they spent all their weekends at home.
