Chapter 6: Wedding Night

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

She switched on the flashlight, found the light switch, and turned on the living room light.

The living room was empty and quiet.

Bai Yi was suddenly enveloped by such loneliness. Perhaps she would live alone like this in the future.

Although it was nothing, her heart still ached when she thought of her sister’s warm home.

However, she could not stay at her sister’s house forever. Otherwise, her sister and brother-in-law would eventually get a divorce.

She hoped that her departure could give her sister a better life.

She washed up briefly and locked the door and windows. She even installed the anti-theft chain she had just bought.

Although the security in this district was very good, it was best to be safe.

Bai Yi put on her earphones. She had a freelance art commission to do tonight.

It was just past one in the morning when a group of people walked out of the restaurant surrounded Lu Qi.

The business talk with the foreign business partners was enjoyable.

“The planning department performed very well this time. I’ll treat everyone to supper. Everyone, you don’t have to come to work tomorrow. I’ll reward you.”

Lu Qi was very happy. With this deal, the foreign market could be said to have completely opened. Such a sense of achievement made a rare smile appear on his face.

“Brother, Grandma called to remind me that today is your wedding night and asked you to go home early.”

Just as Lu Qi was about to go to the celebration banquet, Lu Ci suddenly spoke.

“Brother, Grandma means…”

“Alright, alright.” Lu Qi frowned. He wondered if that woman had complained to Grandma Lu.

The two of them had no feelings for each other. Their wedding night? What wedding night! Did he have to sleep with a woman he had only known for a day and was not familiar with?

“Brother, at least go home early. Grandma asked me to keep an eye on you. If she finds out that you didn’t go home and complains to Grandma, we won’t be able to bear the consequences.”

Lu Qi nodded impatiently. “Got it. Take the planning department to the gathering first. Just put it on my tab. I’ll go home first.”

If that woman told the old lady that he had not gone back tonight, she might cause trouble.

Lu Qi returned home in frustration, but he was trapped at the door.

The door was locked from the inside. He could not open it with the key from the outside. He knocked on the door a few times, and his hand was a little numb. There was still no movement inside.

What was going on? Was she doing it on purpose? Was she throwing a tantrum because he had blocked her today?

He took out his phone and called Bai Yi. When he reached the tenth call, Bai Yi finally picked up.

“Hello, Mr. Lu. What can I do for you?”

It was a businesslike tone.

“Open the door.” Lu Qi was extremely angry and did not want to say another word to this woman.

Finally, the door opened. A woman in pajamas and large earphones stood at the door.

Lu Qi sized her up. She seemed to have just been working. She was wearing glasses and large earphones, and her hair was messy.

“You came back to sleep? I’m sorry, I thought you wouldn’t come back, so I locked the door. I was working just now, so I didn’t hear you,” Bai Yi explained as she yawned.

The sound of knocking on the door in the middle of the night really frightened her. She thought there was a fire and she would have to escape for her life.

Lu Qi did not answer her and walked past her into the room.

Lu Qi did not live here much. Previously, there had been no signs of life here, but after returning today, he realized that something was different.

The black and white sofa was covered with a soft sofa cover and a cute pillow was placed on it. There were a few Chinese bellflowers in a vase on the coffee table.

The sweet smell of milk floated in the air. It seemed like his wife had the habit of drinking milk before sleeping.

Bai Yi saw that he was standing in the living room with a dark expression and knew that she had provoked him.

“It was already past eleven when I returned. I thought you weren’t coming back, so I locked the door. Don’t be angry. I won’t lock it next time. I’m just afraid of bad people.”

Bai Yi thought about her art piece that was about to be completed and softened her voice, hoping that Lu Qi would quickly calm down.

Lu Qi was convinced by her and felt that he had been a little impulsive today. He probably shouldn’t have kicked the door so loudly.

“I’ll let you know if I don’t come back. You don’t have to take the liberty of locking the door.”

Lu Qi glanced at the door. “There’s no need to hang the anti-theft chain. Take this down tomorrow.”

Bai Yi nodded. “I understand. I’ll go draw first. You should sleep early too. If you have any problems, just tell me on WeChat.”

Bai Yi looked at the room and wanted to go back quickly. There was still a little finishing work before she could finish drawing and sleep.

Lu Qi glanced at Bai Yi and said, “In the future, pay attention to your attire at home.”

Attire? What’s wrong? Bai Yi looked at her clothes and almost screamed.
