Xu Yanche woke up promptly at five in the morning.

He touched the abs beneath his hand and casually assessed the feel. "A little lacking, but still acceptable. Hubby, you'd better wake up soon~ When you do, work out properly and let me touch them again."

He Qing was so furious his head was about to explode.

As the dignified president of He Corporation, when had anyone ever treated him like this?

He had no idea how his parents had chosen this person for him.

Xu Yanche reached over to grab his phone from the bedside table.

He saw the missed call Zhang Yue had made last night.

He called her back.

Zhang Yue was still asleep and answered groggily. "Hello? Who is this?"

Xu Yanche sprang out of bed. "Zhang Mammy, what did you call about yesterday?"

Zhang Yue yawned. "You're joining the production tomorrow. Remember to pack up. I'll take a cab to pick you up then."

Xu Yanche was mildly shocked. "So soon?"

Zhang Yue became a little more awake. "What else did you expect? Remember to act well. Whether the two of us can rise to prominence depends on you."

Xu Yanche went to the bathroom in the next room to wash up. "Don't you worry. My acting skills are top-notch."

[Apparently, the male lead in that web drama is a popular young actor. He looks pretty good in the photos online, but I wonder what he's like in person.]

[Still, he doesn't look as good as my nominal hubby in those photos. He's easy enough on the eyes, but not as handsome as me.]

[A little puppy type wouldn't be bad either. I could tease him a little. I can wander through a garden of flowers without a single petal touching me.]

He Qing lay on the bed, furious to death.

His wife was actually planning to cheat on him behind his back.

Xu Yanche hummed as he finished washing up, then prepared to head downstairs according to the script.

Before going down, he decided to take one more look at his handsome hubby.

But the moment he stopped beside the bed, he saw He Qing open his eyes.

Xu Yanche jumped in fright. "Ghost!"

He Qing had been angered awake.

Yesterday, his little wife had clung to him without letting go, taking shameless advantage of him, yet now he was thinking about other men.

But when he saw Xu Yanche's face, he froze.

He was very good-looking.

Cold and refined, with a red mole at the corner of his right eye.

His skin was very fair.

He looked almost otherworldly.

But what puzzled He Qing was that Xu Yanche's lips clearly had not moved, so why could he still hear his little wife's voice?

[Fuck, he woke up! My three hundred million can finally be cashed in! Aaaaaah!]

[He just woke up and is looking at me so weakly. He feels like an abandoned puppy staring pitifully at someone. Tsk, tsk. Who would've thought this domineering CEO was actually a sickly beautiful young man?]

Xu Yanche swiftly kissed He Qing on the lips.

Then he dashed out in a flurry.

[Hehehe, my three hundred million is here! I'm going to tell He Qing's dad right now, and casually hint that he should transfer the three hundred million to me. Then I'll put it in the bank and make money off money. Hehehehe, unimaginable riches, here I come~]

He Qing stared blankly at the ceiling.

Either the world had become fantastical, or there was something wrong with his brain.

Xu Yanche excitedly knocked on doors throughout the quiet villa.

He pounded so hard the doors rattled. "Dad, Mom, get up! The three hundred million woke up—ah, ptooey, He Qing opened his eyes."

[Fuck, that slipped out. Nobody should have noticed, right?]

He Yumo and Jiang Qian had been asleep inside, but the moment they heard that their son had awakened—

they immediately became alert.

They opened the door and hurried anxiously toward their son.

Xu Yanche then went to knock on He Jing's door.

He Jing struggled out of bed.

She opened the door. "What is it?"

Xu Yanche said, "Your brother woke up."

[Hehe, the three hundred million woke up.]

He Jing: "!"

She ran upstairs toward her brother's room.

When Xu Yanche returned to the room, he saw the family doctor examining He Qing.

Having just awakened, He Qing leaned weakly against the headboard and spoke with his parents.

The four members of the He Household were sharing a warm, touching moment.

[This family of four is reuniting. Is it inappropriate for an outsider like me to be here?]

[But they haven't given me my three hundred million yet. How should I bring it up?]

The four members of the He Household, immersed in their joy, came back to their senses upon hearing Xu Yanche's thoughts.

Jiang Qian led Xu Yanche to the bedside and introduced him to He Qing. "Qingqing, this is the wife your father and I chose for you. He's our lucky star. You woke up just two days after he arrived."

He Qing said nothing. His handsome face was calm and expressionless, carrying an invisible air of authority.

He looked at Xu Yanche with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

He Qing: Wasn't that so? He had been angered awake by this little wife of his.

Xu Yanche felt uneasy beneath He Qing's scrutiny.

[Is something wrong with this guy? Why is he looking at me like that? Could there be something wrong with his brain? That look is making my skin crawl. Does he know I undid his clothes and took advantage of him yesterday? Probably not.]

He Jing was stunned upon hearing Xu Yanche's words.

Her little sister-in-law was pretty bold.

Xu Yanche felt it would be better to break the awkward silence first. "Hahaha, hello. Let me introduce myself—I'm Xu Yanche. We haven't registered our marriage yet, so if you're unwilling, I can move out right now."

[Hehe, I haven't lost out at all anyway. I've only been here a little over a day, but I've already earned 1.8 million. Add in the three hundred million promised yesterday, and I'm basically rich now.]

[Then I can take the money, find some place to slack off, hehehehe. I never thought I'd be able to lie flat and coast through life so soon.]

The four members of the He Household fell silent as they listened to Xu Yanche's thoughts.

Jiang Qian looked at her son, hoping he would not say anything hurtful.

She felt that Xu Yanche's mental state seemed a little unstable.

Originally, she had thought that given her son's personality, he would definitely refuse this marriage. Unexpectedly, he actually agreed.

He Qing said calmly, "In that case, once you finish filming this drama, we'll register our marriage."

Xu Yanche, who had been fantasizing about his future life of slacking off, nearly cursed aloud.

[Wait, he agreed just like that? I don't want this. This guy clearly looks difficult to get along with. I don't want to ruin the rest of my life's sex life for nothing.]

He Qing had already picked up on a way to handle Xu Yanche from his inner thoughts.

He directly cut off Xu Yanche's impending refusal. "From now on, you'll be my, He Qing's, wife. I'll transfer five million to you every month as spending money. If it isn't enough, just tell me."

The refusal already on Xu Yanche's lips immediately took a sharp turn.

He sat on the bed, took He Qing's hand, and smiled with utter sincerity. "All right, Qingqing Darling. We should get along well from now on. Nothing matters more than the two of us living our lives well together. Qingqing Darling, how are you feeling? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"

[Rich people really are something. Five million! That's a huge sum of money. I absolutely won't admit I agreed because of the money.]

The He Household all looked at Xu Yanche with complicated expressions.

Xu Yanche looked at the doctor and asked with concern, "Doctor, how is Qingqing doing?"

The tips of He Qing's ears turned slightly red.

This person was far too shameless. They had only just met, yet he was already calling him that.
