“Water~” Gu Jiaojiao, feeling thirsty in her sleep, instinctively reached toward the bedside.

Her small hand inevitably touched the person lying beside her, and the burning temperature made her dazed for a moment.

Slowly opening her eyes, Gu Jiaojiao, half-asleep, propped herself up on one elbow and saw a man lying next to her.

The man had a crew cut, with sharp features, thick eyebrows, and dark eyes. His face was deeply chiseled, his gaze piercing.

Yet, it couldn’t hide the heroic yet cold aura between his brows. The short stubble added a touch of wildness to his appearance.

His slightly pursed lips seemed to express his current displeasure, exuding a chilling aura that made one dare not look directly at him.

As Gu Jiaojiao looked at him, the coldness in the man’s eyes turned into sharp, devouring arrows, startling her so much that she fell back onto the bed with a thud.

With a quick glance, she noticed the man wasn’t fair-skinned, not the kind of handsome youth with a milky complexion.

Instead, he was the type of ruggedly handsome man with a bronze complexion and an extraordinary aura.

Gu Jiaojiao, who was usually very picky, felt that the man’s looks and temperament perfectly aligned with her aesthetic preferences.

Frightened by the man’s cold gaze, Gu Jiaojiao, feeling indignant, had a sudden impulse.

She flipped over and pressed herself against him. In her dream, she felt too weak, even turning over required all her strength.

Gu Jiaojiao’s hands explored the man’s solid arms and well-defined chest muscles.

Moving downward, she felt his entire body tense up.

He glared at her with dark, ominous eyes, his body taut like a fully drawn bow.

The man was shirtless, and beads of sweat slid down his chest…

Past his six-pack abs…

Past his sexy V-line…

At this moment, she was no longer thirsty, because her mouth was filled with a different kind of water—saliva.

Gu Jiaojiao, being a wealthy young lady, was raised to be reserved and wouldn’t drool over a handsome man.

So, the reserved young lady gulped down her saliva with a loud gulp…

Busy with no time for a boyfriend, Gu Jiaojiao finally dreamed of a man who was not only at her mercy but also devastatingly handsome.

Hehe~

As Gu Jiaojiao’s hand reached the man’s waist.

“Gu Jiaojiao, are you seeking death?”

The man roared furiously, his voice rolling like thunder, nearly bursting Gu Jiaojiao’s eardrums.

His eyes were like a wolf’s, ready to tear her apart at any moment…

Gu Jiaojiao laughed in anger. She was young, beautiful, wealthy, and successful, pursued by many outstanding men.

For the first time in her life, she took the initiative in a dream, only to be rejected by the man. This was unacceptable, so she defiantly leaned in to kiss him.

Before her lips could touch his, the man flung her to the ground.

Gu Jiaojiao, thrown to the ground by the man, felt her head buzzing, stars dancing before her eyes from the pain.

She whimpered, “You hurt me.”

Despite her fierce tone, her voice was as soft as a kitten’s.

Su Shuoci: “…”

In her dazed state, Gu Jiaojiao felt something was off. She reached out and felt the ground—it was dirt.

Where was the expensive Kerman vase and Persian rug she had bought?

Even more unbelievable was that she couldn’t move after the fall. Gu Jiaojiao was not a delicate woman.

On the contrary, she could easily handle several grown men, yet now she was effortlessly thrown off the bed by this man?

The more she thought about it, the more something felt wrong. She instinctively turned her head.

In her line of sight, a pair of red peony thermoses sat on a mahogany table.

Not far away was a double wardrobe painted with mandarin ducks playing in water, a large red ‘double happiness’ character pasted on the mirror in the center.

The entire room was sparsely furnished, with a dirt floor that had been swept until it shone, making it look very shabby.

From the mirror, she could clearly see a delicate oval face, slightly hollow cheeks, making her almond-shaped eyes appear unusually large.

Holy crap!

Who was the person in the mirror?

Gu Jiaojiao blinked, and the person in the mirror blinked back.

Then, a flood of chaotic memories that didn’t belong to her surged through her mind…

What else was there to understand?!

Gu Jiaojiao had just attended an international medical conference and returned home.

She learned that her grandfather had spent a fortune to get her a heart-shaped gemstone pendant.

He said it was a portable medical space, already stocked with hundreds of billions worth of medical supplies.

Her grandfather also told her that she could store other supplies in the medical space.

Despite her travel fatigue, Gu Jiaojiao hurriedly moved the warehouse of their Gu family’s large shopping mall into her space.

Excited, she couldn’t sleep for a long time. In her drowsiness, she encountered an extremely handsome man.

When she fully woke up, Gu Jiaojiao was tragically lying on the ground. It wasn’t that she was too scared to get up.

But the current body she was in didn’t allow it. Her mind was clear and she could think, but her body was completely weak.

What a pity for that so-called space and the billions worth of supplies she hadn’t even had the chance to enjoy!

Having never been married in her previous life, Gu Jiaojiao suddenly found herself with a husband, a scumbag who would hit his wife at the slightest provocation!

The sudden change in identity left Gu Jiaojiao somewhat unprepared, but her greatest strength was her adaptability and refusal to admit defeat.

Even if she lost, she wouldn’t lose face. Gu Jiaojiao glared fiercely at the man on the bed and threatened.

“You. Are. Dead. Meat.”

Su Shuoci’s brows furrowed into a knot, the killing intent in his eyes fading. He had no sensation from the waist down.

His newlywed wife, upon waking, didn’t scold or reject him. Instead, she flipped over and sat on him, groping him wildly.

Especially when she touched his numb waist, she must have been trying to humiliate him in a different way.

So, with a hint of shame and anger, he roared, hoping she would stop.

Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that he, known as the Wolf of the Army, would one day be groped like this.

After roaring at her, not only did she not stop, but she also tried to kiss him. In his fury, he pushed her away.

But his new wife, who had grown up pampered, had such a slender waist that it seemed like it could be snapped with one hand, and her wrists were so fragile they could be crushed with a light squeeze.

Though furious, he didn’t dare to pull her away with force. In all honesty, he had only given her a light push, yet she fell off the bed.

Su Shuoci saw the petite woman lying on the ground, her expression lively, no longer the arrogance and aloofness she had shown when she entered two days ago.

Nor was there the incessant cursing. Now, her clear eyes held a hint of confusion, making her look somewhat mischievously cute.

She made a fierce expression, as if she wanted to hit him, but for some reason, she stayed on the ground and didn’t come up to strike him.

“Jiaojiao, why are you lying on the ground?” A strong, high-pitched female voice sounded at the door.

Gu Jiaojiao turned her head to see a middle-aged woman with ashes still on her clothes, indicating she had rushed over from the stove.

Her sallow face bore two large dark circles under her eyes, and her weary expression was full of panic.

The middle-aged woman quickly stepped forward, effortlessly scooping Gu Jiaojiao up and placing her on the bed next to the man.

“Jiaojiao, don’t blame Shuoci. No matter how anxious he is, he can’t get out of bed to carry you. You’ve really been wronged.”
