“You’re not Lin Weiwei! Who are you?!”
The man tied to the bed turned red with anger. His eyes were burning with fury as he glared at the woman in front of him.
Lin Wan slowly got up from his body. Her hand had already reached his lower abdomen, and she poked his firm abs with her fingers, clicking her tongue in amusement.
“Why? Don’t you recognize me?”
Her voice was soft and charming, and her eyes gazed at him affectionately. But her hands were not behaving honestly at all.
“No matter who you are, get out of here!”
Lin Wan saw the undisguised disgust and unfamiliarity in his eyes. A sour feeling rose in her heart, but she forced herself to stay calm and smiled casually.
“Husband, I am your wife. Today is our wedding night. Why don’t you remember?”
Huo Tingxiao looked at her in disdain. Then he suddenly recalled something—the Lin family didn’t just have Lin Weiwei. They also had an adopted daughter… Lin Wan.
Rumors said that she got pregnant before marriage. It had already been more than three months, making the Lin family lose face completely. She was infamous in the southern city.
Could it be her?!
Seeing the disbelief in Huo Tingxiao’s eyes, Lin Wan knew that he had remembered her.
But before she could feel even a little happy, she was instantly overwhelmed by the terrifying pressure he exuded.
“This Lin family is truly bold. Not only did they switch the bride, but they even dared to send you and that bastard child to marry into the Huo family!”
As he spoke, his sharp eyes landed on Lin Wan’s slightly protruding belly, as if he wanted to slice her open along with the child inside.
Lin Wan hesitated for only a second before pressing herself against him again.
“Husband, what are you talking about? Mr. Huo only said he wanted a daughter from the Lin family, but he never specified which one. Lin Weiwei despised you for being crippled, so I had to marry in her place. Besides, given your current condition, maybe you won’t be able to have your own children in the future. If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be perfect for you to be a father right away?”
Her shameless words completely enraged Huo Tingxiao. He struggled furiously, his eyes burning with flames of anger, ready to consume her.
“Lin Wan, do you have no shame?!”
Lin Wan didn’t answer. Instead, her hand slowly moved down his chest, finally resting on his belt.
“Honey, today is our wedding night. Don’t you want to…”
Her eyes were seductive, as if filled with invisible hooks, enough to tempt any man.
But Huo Tingxiao only glared at her with a deadly stare, as if he had been poisoned.
“Lin Wan, you’re so disgusting! You dare to carry another man’s child while lying in my bed. Aren’t you afraid the real father will come and settle the score with you? Do you even have a shred of shame left?”
Lin Wan didn’t respond to his accusation. But deep inside, her heart trembled.
He had really forgotten everything from that night.
“He and I are just lovers. But husband, you’re different. You are my future, my stability. My child and I will rely on you in the future.”
She reached out and caressed his face, letting her fingers slowly trace down from his forehead to his lips.
Then she bent down, placed her hands on his chest, and felt his heartbeat. She slowly lowered her lips toward his…
But then she met his cold, hateful gaze.
For a moment, her heart ached.
But she still forced a relaxed smile.
“Husband, judging by your reaction, I almost thought you were staying pure for someone else. But too bad, from now on, you belong to me, Lin Wan. No other woman can get close to you.”
As she spoke, her restless hands began unbuttoning his shirt. Like a water snake, she moved against him, quickly undoing the rest of his buttons.
Then, under his murderous gaze, she leaned forward, flicked her fingers, and his belt came loose.
Just as her hands reached his pants, Huo Tingxiao was on the verge of losing it.
“Lin Wan, if you dare do this, I will kill you!”
Lin Wan wasn’t scared of his threats.
She reached for his zipper, pulled it down with both hands, and stripped him bare.
“Lin Wan, I’ll make you pay for this!”
Huo Tingxiao felt his dignity being trampled. Humiliation consumed him, and he struggled with all his might to push her away.
But just then, the woman’s body suddenly froze.
Finally, the ropes binding him started to loosen. He hurriedly worked to free himself, his black eyes filled with raging fire.
Lin Wan heard footsteps disappearing outside the door and finally sighed in relief. She was about to get up, but suddenly, a strong hand yanked her back.
She instinctively shielded her belly, but her neck was immediately seized in a firm grip.
“Didn’t you want me? Why are you stopping now? How about I grant your wish?”
Lin Wan’s face turned pale, her breathing weak. Seeing the raw hatred in his eyes, she had no doubt—if she pushed him any further, he would really kill her.
But even with his fingers tightening around her throat, she showed no fear.
Instead, her hand reached toward his lower abdomen again. Her fingers lightly lifted the hem of his shirt and brushed against his skin.
Huo Tingxiao’s eyes flashed with intense disgust.
With a sudden force, he shoved her away.
Lin Wan barely managed to grab the bedpost to steady herself and prevent a hard fall.
Huo Tingxiao’s sharp gaze locked onto her belly. His lips curled into a mocking sneer.
“You care so much about that bastard child, yet you still dare to crawl into my bed? Aren’t you afraid you’ll end up killing both of you?”
Lin Wan stiffened.
In that moment, she saw the cruel intent in his eyes.
She quickly suppressed the panic in her heart and prepared to leave.
But just as she turned, he grabbed her again.
His strong hands clamped onto her shoulders, his eyes filled with a wicked, playful smile.
The same shameless look she had worn just moments ago.
“Why are you running?” His lips curled into a smirk. “Didn’t you want me to satisfy you?”
