Chapter 2: You Can’t touch her
Translator: Lonelytree
Sheng Hanye raised his eyebrows and asked, “What if it does?”
“Then… You have to pay extra!”
He leaned over to whisper into her ear, “Mrs. Sheng, how much do you charge for one night? I’m sure I can afford it.”
Jiang Niansheng wanted to elbow him right in his stomach but since he was her savior… She controlled herself.
Jiang Niansheng put the marriage certificate into her bag.
Sheng Hanye caught a glimpse of a woman from the corner of his eye. She was looking in their direction. ‘This Miss Ye is really like a ghost.’ Sheng Hanye whispered, “Mrs. Sheng, it’s time for your debut.”
“What do you mean?”
He pointed at the approaching woman. “I like women who are smart. Figure it out yourself.”
Jiang Niansheng saw a woman covered in branded clothes walk over to them. When she arrived, she said in a cutesy voice. “Hanye, what are you doing here? I’ve been looking all over for you.”
He answered matter-of-factly, “Why do you think I’m here? I am here to get certified.”
The woman was dumbfounded. “Certified… For what?” Sheng Hanye shot a look at Jiang Niansheng.
‘So this is what he meant!’ Jiang Niansheng took out the marriage certificate. “He meant this. Miss, who are you?”
“Who am I? I am the Ye family’s eldest miss, Ye Ziya! Hanye’s fiance!”
“Well, I am the madam of the Sheng family.” Jiang Niansheng smiled at her. “Our marriage is protected by the law. What about yours?”
Ye Ziya was about to explode. The Ye family and Sheng family were old friends, the two families wanted Ye Ziya to marry Sheng Hanye. However, a country bumpkin had come out of nowhere to steal her place!
Ye Ziya pointed at Jiang Niansheng. “How can a common woman like you be worthy of Hanye?”
“Erm, it was my husband who chose me among thousands of women. Are you trying to humiliate Mr. Sheng’s taste?”
“I don’t believe you. You must have used some kind of awful trick!” Ye Ziya gnashed her teeth. “Hanye, don’t be fooled by her!”
Jiang Niansheng coughed. “Miss, stop with Hanye this, Hanye that. Do you not understand that he’s my husband? Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
Ye Ziya was surprised by the woman’s sharp tongue. She was stumped. In her anger, she waved her palm at Jiang Niansheng. The latter evaded it easily. Jiang Niansheng grabbed the woman’s wrist and was thinking about slapping her back when…
Jiang Niansheng suddenly let go of Ye Ziya and collapsed into Sheng Hanye’s arms. “Hubby, this woman is so fierce. You have to help me~”
‘Why should I do all the work?’ Jiang Niansheng purposely blinked her eyes innocently at her new husband.
Sheng Hanye’s mouth twitched. ‘The woman can take ten people down on her own and suddenly she needs my help?!’
“You… slut!” Ye Ziya stomped her feet. “Stop acting!”
Jiang Niansheng shrunk deeper into Sheng Hanye’s arms. “Hubby, she’s scolding me~”
“I’m going to tear off your mask!” Ye Ziya pounced on Jiang Niansheng. “Hanye needs to see your true face… Ah!” Sheng Hanye held Jiang Niansheng and blocked Ye Ziya. “You are not to touch her!”
“Hanye!”
“We’re not engaged so don’t call yourself my fiance.” Sheng Hanye’s eyes were cold. “Jiang Niansheng is my wife. If you touch even a hair on her, I will cripple you!”
Ye Ziya was speechless. She glared at Jiang Niansheng with hatred.
Jiang Niansheng looked at her innocently. You had to be a better green tea to deal with green tea!
“I will complain to Grandpa Sheng, just wait and see!” Ye Ziya warned as she stomped away.
Jiang Niansheng was confused. ‘Since this man already has a fiance, why did he insist on marrying me? He must be too free and too rich.’
“Spent enough time in my arms yet?” The deep voice came from above her head. Jiang Niansheng came back to her senses and took two steps back to put some distance between them.
She coughed. “So how was my debut?”
“You barely passed.”
Jiang Niansheng pouted, “Sheng Hanye, you didn’t marry me just to have me deal with Ye Ziya, right?”
“Who are you to question me?”
“If…” Jiang Niansheng was curious, “If it was another woman in my shoes at the hospital, would you marry her too?”
Sheng Hanye said readily, “Of course.”
Jiang Niansheng felt strangely hollow.
…
An hour later, the news of Sheng Hanye, the CEO of Sheng Shi Group getting married, made headlines everywhere. However, no one had any picture of Mrs. Sheng.
Everyone was guessing who this mysterious woman who took down the richest man in Nan City was.
…
Sheng Manor looked more like a castle. It had a huge lawn and the luxury showcased the great status of its owner.
Jiang Niansheng was exhausted. She lay in the bathtub and took a bath. Unknowingly, she fell asleep. When she woke up, the water was already cold.
She wrapped a simple towel around her and walked to the cloakroom.
At the same time, Sheng Hanye came out of the cloakroom. When Jiang Niansheng saw him, she quickly stepped back. Her feet were slippery and she fell forward. A pair of big hands captured her in time. “Mrs. Sheng, are you that eager?”
“I didn’t mean… Hmph!” Jiang Niansheng tried to right herself when she stepped on the corner of her towel. The towel opened itself and fell to the ground.
Sheng Hanye’s eyes deepened. The exquisite curves, slender waist, and sexy legs… He had seen everything with a glance.
Jiang Niansheng quickly covered his eyes. “Stop looking! You pervert!”
“But you’re the one who removed the towel.”
Jiang Niansheng was caught in an awkward position, she wanted to grab the towel on the floor but she also needed to keep her hands over Sheng Hanye’s eyes. Suddenly Sheng Hanye took off his suit jacket and wrapped it over her. Then he picked her up and placed her on the bed.
Jiang Niansheng immediately grabbed the quilt to wrap herself in it!
“I’m not interested in you. You really need to practice your seduction technique.” Sheng Hanye looked at her.
Jiang Niansheng was speechless. “Perfect because I pray that you’d never touch me.”
“You are mine but now is not the time to claim you.”
“CEO Sheng.” She looked around, “Can’t we discuss this further?”
“No.”
“How can you be so unreasonable…”
Sheng Hanye tugged at his tie. “Because this is my house and you’ve signed the contract.”
Jiang Niansheng sighed. “You’re right. I’m yours for two years but after that, I’ll leave you and regain my freedom.”
Sheng Hanye paused and a layer of frost covered his eyes. “What did you say?”
“What?” Jiang Niansheng was confused. “We’re getting divorced after two years, right?” Then a hand appeared around her slender neck. Sheng Hanye appeared to change into a different person.. His previous aloofness was swapped out for a fiery desperation. His hands tightened and Jiang Niansheng was about to choke to death!
