Ou Xuyan rejects Lu Fan's advances again, criticizing his lack of skill. Despite the argument, they share a meal and prepare for bed. Lu Fan apologizes for his impulsiveness, but Ou Xuyan dismisses his apology, while he asserts his claim as her husband.

“What right do you possess to criticize me, Lu Fan? You are married, yet you persist in fooling around outside. That, in my opinion, is even more inexcusable,” Ou Xuyan retorted hotly.

Fooling around? The accusation immediately caused Lu Fan's brow to furrow. He felt utterly disconnected from such a description and couldn't fathom why she would suddenly cast that label upon him.

“Ugly girl, it would be best if you clarified this. Who exactly was I fooling around with?” he demanded.

“Lu Fan, do you truly wish for me to spell it out? What is the deal with that Yi Qiaoqiao?”

Yi Qiaoqiao? Lu Fan contemplated the individual in question. “What do you mean by ‘deal’? She is the daughter of Division Commander Yi, a fellow soldier,” he stated.

“And what else?” she pressed.

“Nothing else,” he replied.

“You are lying. She still harbors feelings for you!”

“And what relevance does that have to me? Your husband is a tall, wealthy, and handsome soldier. Which young lady wouldn't be attracted to him? Must I be aware of every single person who admires me?”

Ou Xuyan nearly burst into laughter. Did this man's ego know no bounds?

“She is Division Commander Yi's daughter, and Division Commander Yi holds you in high regard. He wishes to take you as his son-in-law. Have you never been tempted by this prospect, Lu Fan? Becoming Division Commander Yi’s son-in-law would undoubtedly propel your career forward.”

Lu Fan's expression darkened considerably upon hearing this. “Ugly girl, what exactly are you implying? Are you questioning whether I achieved my current standing through my own capabilities?”

“I…”

“Or perhaps you believe the Lu family name carries less weight than that of Yi Shizhang?”

Ou Xuyan found herself rendered speechless. She chided herself for her oversight, having forgotten that the man before her was not merely a soldier but also the scion of the esteemed Lu family. The Lu family commanded an formidable business empire under the brilliant and ceaseless leadership of Lu Jinwen. Naturally, a division commander like Yi Shizhang paled in comparison.

Throughout the years, his entry into the army and subsequent rise were solely attributable to his exceptional combat achievements. No one could possibly cast doubt upon his inherent abilities.

“Even if we accept that premise, this entire predicament was initiated by Yi Qiaoqiao. It was she who propagated the rumor that there was… no romantic connection between us.”

So, it was her fault. Lu Fan reclined on the bed, his strong arms propping up his head. He slowly closed his eyes, his expression unreadable.

Ou Xuyan promptly sat up. She extended her pale, delicate foot and nudged him. “Hey, Lu Fan, what are you trying to achieve? She wronged us. Why aren't you saying anything?”

“What do you mean?” Lu Fan lifted his eyelids, regarding her with a casual air. The young woman's exquisite face was flushed, her eyes shimmering brightly, akin to fresh, tender fruits begging to be savored.

“She has caused us considerable distress. You should go and teach her a lesson!”

Considerable distress… Lu Fan arched his sword-like eyebrows. Why did he not perceive it that way? On the contrary, he felt a sense of gratitude towards Yi Qiaoqiao. If not for her actions, he would not have had the opportunity to fall into bed with Ou Xuyan.

Lu Fan's gaze swept over Ou Xuyan. Although their encounter that night had not been entirely smooth sailing, it had nonetheless been a profoundly gratifying experience. She was now his woman, the genuine Mrs. Lu.

In the future, she would never be allowed to leave him again!

“Lu Fan, are you mute? Wow, and you still claim you weren't having an affair with Yi Qiaoqiao. You are clearly protecting her now. Hurry up and explain yourself to me… ah.”

Lu Fan reached out with his large palm, his fingers encircling her slender wrist. With a powerful tug, he pulled her into his embrace.

Her head collided with his firm chest, causing her immense pain. Tears welled in her eyes. “Lu Fan, what are you doing? That hurts so much. Are you made of iron? So incredibly hard!”
