Chapter 2 Then you can get lost.
In that spacious and bright living room, which also had a slightly chilly feel, Luo Jiuyu inadvertently caught a glimpse of Hua Meimei's expression.
Her pale, paper-like appearance was completely different from her usual self, so he couldn't help but ask casually, "Hua Meimei, why are you so pale?"
His tone was flat, purely out of curiosity.
After all, although she was his wife in name only, the two of them lived under the same roof but were like strangers. This sudden change naturally made him a little puzzled.
Hua Meimei leaned on the table with one hand, tilting her head slightly to one side, a hint of teasing in her eyes: "Oh, so you do care about your wife?"
Her gaze swept over Luo Jiuyu, and she secretly admitted to herself that the man in front of her did indeed have a strikingly handsome appearance.
He was tall and straight, and his black clothes accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist, making him appear cold and aloof.
His deep eyes were like twinkling stars in the night sky; a single glance could captivate the heart and soul, leaving one lost in their endless depths.
Of course, he was incredibly charming to other women. However, Hua Meimei wouldn't be infatuated with him.
Men... I've been through life and death, so I won't be easily infatuated with one.
Although they've been married for a month, they haven't slept together or eaten together. They've spoken to each other a handful of times.
"I've already said our marriage is null and void." Luo Jiuyu's voice was deep and magnetic, carrying an invisible sense of pressure.
He meant to remind her not to cross the line.
The two of them treated each other as strangers.
"My stomach isn't feeling well, will you take me to the hospital?" Hua Meimei asked him, blinking her innocent eyes.
"No." He looked at her coldly, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
"If you don't know how, then why do you care if I look pale?" Hua Meimei knew he wasn't being kind.
"I'm not concerned about you," Luo Jiuyu denied outright.
"So you're curious about me?" Hua Meimei's lips curled up, her eyes sparkling with laughter.
"I could never be curious about you." Luo Jiuyu glanced at her; this woman was truly shameless.
"Then you can get lost." Hua Meimei waved to him with a smile, looking relaxed and at ease.
A hint of surprise flashed in Luo Jiuyu's eyes, and a touch of anger appeared on his face. He wondered to himself why this woman was behaving so strangely today, daring to speak to him like that?
"Are you trying to say this is your home, and if anyone's going to leave, it's me?" Hua Meimei preemptively struck, not giving him a chance to retaliate.
He curled his lip and let out a cold snort from his throat.
The expression on his face said: You know it.
Hua Meimei continued, "Don't forget, it was your grandfather who arranged for me to marry you. If you want to get rid of me, you'll need your grandfather's permission first. Be careful, or I might run to your grandfather and cry about all the bad things you've done to me. Guess how your grandfather will scold you then?"
Luo Jiuyu said in a low voice, "Hua Meimei, you've been very presumptuous today."
"Anyway, by marrying you, the Hua family's 30 million yuan debt has already been settled. I don't owe you anything, and I can divorce you anytime. Now you're trying to drag me into this marriage act, putting on a show for your elders. You're asking for my help, so you owe me. From now on, please be more polite to me, understand?"
Hua Meimei talked a lot and got thirsty, so she got up to pour herself a glass of water.
He gulped down a glass in one go, then poured himself another.
She's drinking water so boldly, where's her previous ladylike demeanor? Luo Jiuyu thought maybe she couldn't keep up the act anymore and finally laid her cards on the table.
He sat down in the chair opposite her. "Tell me then, what misdeeds did I commit against you that you want to complain to my grandfather about?"
