Chapter 1629 - 1611:
Chu Ge’s ink-black eyes narrowed slightly, a dangerous, contemplative glint shooting out from within. Way too abnormal. Since yesterday, what happened between Han Wanwan and Lu Yunxiao had already made him suspicious. Add today’s theatrical wedding, and now this woman who’d always hated him to the bone suddenly showing up in front of him like this—he couldn’t help but doubt she had an agenda.
Han Wanwan saw Chu Ge standing there without moving, even watching her strike all these poses with a cold, indifferent face, and while she felt frustrated, she was also unwilling to give up.
She climbed straight down from the bed. Since Chu Ge wouldn’t move, then she’d just be a bit more proactive.
Han Wanwan stepped barefoot onto the soft white Persian carpet, walking slowly, light on her feet, closing the distance to Chu Ge one step at a time.
With every step closer, she could feel the chill radiating off Chu Ge grow stronger. In the end, she stopped in front of him with a soft, teasing smile, her brows and eyes all silk, "Hubby, I’ve been waiting for you for so long."
"Hubby, you’re hurting me."
"What trick are you playing at this time?" Chu Ge’s voice was cool and clear, carrying an innate authority that pressed down on Han Wanwan so hard she didn’t even dare breathe too loudly.
She lifted her gaze, her watery eyes shining like starlight, pitiful and fragile. "What trick? Hubby, it’s our wedding night today. I just want to leave us a beautiful memory, that’s all."
Chu Ge didn’t believe her. She was disappointed, but it was within reason. Even she felt she’d gone too far when she thought back on the things she’d done before.
If she were in his shoes, facing this kind of situation, she’d suspect she had some ulterior motive too.
A trace of disappointment flashed through Han Wanwan’s eyes, but she quickly pulled herself together again. She’d gotten to live a second life—wasn’t it precisely to give her a chance to overturn that tragic ending?
The road would be hard, but for the person she loved and the people who loved her, she had to grit her teeth and keep going.
"So this is how you usually seduce Lu Yunxiao too?" His low, hoarse voice was laced with ice-cold indifference.
"Chu Ge!" Han Wanwan clenched her back molars, glaring at him. What did he want her to do to finally erase that thorn he had in his heart about her?!
The atmosphere stretched taut.
Han Wanwan took a deep breath. She squeezed her eyes tightly shut, and when she opened them again, they were brimming with tears. She choked out pitifully, "I’m already your wife now. I’m doing all this just to live a good life with you, to leave a beautiful memory of our first day as newlyweds, nothing more."
Chu Ge’s sharp brows furrowed slightly.
Han Wanwan continued, "I know what happened between me and Lu Yunxiao before always makes you think I still have him in my heart. But he’s already in the past. Right now I’m your wife. Why won’t you believe I can do what a wife should do?"
...
Reading up to this point, Chu Ge’s heart inexplicably tightened. He turned to look at Han Wanwan and asked, "So this means we still have to make the fake scene real?"
As in, they’d have to go to bed?
Han Wanwan burst out laughing. "The bed scenes in dramas are all fake!"
She glanced up and down at Chu Ge. Seeing his dark, stormy face, she couldn’t help wanting to tease him. "What, is Mr. Chu scared of getting too intimate with another girl?"
"What are you getting all nervous for here?"
Chu Ge gave a light cough. "Who says I’m nervous? I’m just worried—you’re still a celebrity right now. If someone took pictures, I don’t want to get dragged into a huge mess."
Han Wanwan’s face went red, then white from being slapped by his words. She glared at him angrily. "It’s not like we haven’t been photographed together before. Weren’t you pretty calm back then? And now you come here and pretend to be all pure and high and mighty?"
"..." Chu Ge stared at her, at a loss for words.
"Enough, take these scripts back and read through them properly. Think them over. I’ve got another set with me—these are all from the director for you. If you really don’t want to act, just remember to return them."
Something occurred to Han Wanwan and she added, "Oh, and the content of these scripts has to stay secret. You can’t leak anything. If it gets out, you’ll have to take responsibility."
Chu Ge lowered his head and glanced at the scripts in his hands. The four scripts were all more or less similar in terms of plot, but the styles were different. To be honest, he really was a bit interested.
It was just that the second script’s scumbag male role got an immediate pass from him. He did not want to get cursed out as a scumbag by everyone!
