Married at First Sight

The moment the blade sank into her shoulder blade, her thoughts were not of her own safety but of a tearful smile as she said to him, "Fortunately, my shoulder has blocked your heart."

He nearly went mad in that instant.

His chest stained with her bright red blood, he wanted to hold her tightly, but it was too late, far too late.

He watched helplessly as she perished alongside the enemy.

Since then, in countless midnight dreams, he still waits for that girl, waiting for her return.

And yet!

That girl may never come back...

He said he was waiting for a girl, waiting for her to come back.

"Who is that girl?" she had asked him many times, but he never answered.

"Do you love that girl very much?" she had also asked him like this.

He just gave a faint smile, his smile like the sad flowers on the road to the underworld, silently telling of parting in life and death.

...

In the deep night, lightning split the sky, thunder rolled, and suddenly a downpour began, waking the woman who was sleeping.

Joan Xu was most afraid of thunder, and as soon as she heard it, she inexplicably trembled all over, not knowing what she was afraid of.

She abruptly sat up from the bed, her beautiful and smooth forehead covered with a thin layer of fine sweat.

"Did you have a nightmare?" The man beside her was awakened by her, his voice light, deep, and indifferent, without any anger.

Joan Xu reached out to turn on the tasseled bedside lamp, the warm orange light calming her a bit.

Especially when she heard the mans voice, she felt more at ease and fearless.

"I didnt have a nightmare, I was just scared awake by the thunder." Even if she really had a nightmare, she wouldnt tell him.

Because she knew he was just asking casually, he didnt really care about her.

Ethan Fu gazed deeply at her pale and frightened face, and as expected, he didnt say anything more, then closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

A wave of indescribable sourness welled up in Joan Xus heart, she hugged her knees with both hands, clenched her teeth, buried her head, and tears silently slid down from the corners of her eyes.

Married to Ethan Fu for two years in a marriage of convenience, although they slept in the same bed every night, he never touched her.

It was just a two-meter-wide bed, but the distance between her and him was like a galaxy.

She didnt dare to cross, and he would never come to touch her.

"If..." After a long time, Joan Xu choked and said, "If you cant wait for that girl to come back, do you plan to treat me like this for a lifetime?"

Before the marriage of convenience, she didnt fall in love with Ethan Fu, and she thought it didnt matter, but now she has fallen in love with him, and her heart is always blocked by that unknown girl.

She doesnt know who that girl is, nor does she know whether that girl will suddenly appear.

She only knows that as long as that girl comes back, Ethan Fu will spare no effort to get rid of her and marry the girl he loves.

Ethan Fu didnt know if he was asleep or pretending not to hear, and he was quiet and silent.

"Ethan Fu, answer me!"

Joan Xu suddenly got angry, and she didnt know where her courage came from, suddenly crossed over, tightly grabbed the mans nightgown collar with her fingers. Her eyes were filled with love and hate.

Ethan Fu calmly opened his eyes, which were clearer than the sun, moon, and stars, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his voice was cold: "Let go."

"You answer me." Joan Xu was stubborn with him, getting more and more tight.

"Dont make me say it a second time." Ethan Fus eyes were like a cold pool, without any temperature.

Before, his attitude towards her was relatively gentle, but after Joan Xu got drunk and said she loved him, his attitude towards her became indifferent and distant.

"If you dont answer me, I wont let go." She has never been an irrational woman, but her rationality is now slowly being broken down by Ethan Fu.

She loves him, hopelessly in love with him.

However, this kind of love is not enough, she wants to get his body and heart.

A crazy thought flashed through, before the man under her could speak coldly, Joan Xu suddenly boldly lowered her head and kissed his thin cool lips.

He has always been a look of abstinence and not eating fireworks, and she has long been unhappy with him!
