Chapter 7

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Jun Shang clenched his teeth and pulled Xiao closer.

Thrust. Their bodies came together. Another unbelievable shiver ran down his spine. He looked at the trembling woman beneath him – her moving hips and her cute bellybutton. The overwhelming pleasure felt suffocating and electrifying. Jun Shang couldn't believe it was real.

He moved her hips forcefully. Pulling out completely, then plunging back in. Her swaying body trembled with pleasure. From head to toe, a tight sensation spread through her, making her stiffen.

"Ha!"

It was so incredible that he couldn't help but laugh. He rolled his hips, grinding into her. The sticky warmth inside her brought pleasure surging through his body. Unable to control his desire, he thrust back into her. His rhythm matched the pounding of his heart.

Oh my goodness.

He cupped Xiao's breasts, forgetting to hold back. Jun Shang's hips moved faster. Thrust after thrust. The sound of their bodies slapping against each other grew faster. Jun Shang kept going, pounding into her like a madman until blinding pleasure burst inside him like fireworks.

"Aah! Haa, ugh!"

Xiao couldn't resist Jun Shang's strength and trembled. Her flushed face panted. She tried to pull away again, but his intense embrace held her tight.

Her body arched again. Jun Shang grabbed her buttocks and thrust fiercely. Xiao's body held him tightly as she cried out. He couldn't see straight. He couldn't hear anything. He could only growl loudly like an animal as he continued to move.

And so, the couple began their married life. During their 3-day-2-night honeymoon, they stayed at the resort without leaving. Though it was only a honeymoon in name, Jun Shang was captivated by Xiao. His wife's body was like a sweet drug to him.

No matter how many times he held her, her body was a source of great pleasure. Despite her initial awkwardness, she started moving in sync with him. There was no greater joy for him than seeing his wife's face filled with the pleasure they discovered together.

Yet, sex remained just an act for them. Mixing pleasure with love was intolerable. The saying 'What draws the body, draws the heart' didn't apply to Jun Shang. Desire flared up like fire but also faded away. YunXiao felt the same way.

As business partners, their connection was for profit, and their physical intimacy was solely for pleasure. They couldn't be like typical married couples.

Their honeymoon in Japan was a fantasy, while reality was different. He was responsible for 40,000 employees, and if you included their families, it reached 200,000. A honeymoon fantasy wouldn't interfere with this reality. His days were filled with design projects, marketing, dealing with banks, and making investments.

Unspoken rules governed their relationship. They never approached each other out of sentiment, never delved into the other's personal life. Sex was an agreement, a consideration for each other. Jun Shang often worked overnight or went on business trips, and if he needed her during the night, he would seek her out. But if Xiao declined, he respected her decision and maintained distance when they slept.

They put in effort to uphold this situation, not letting lust complicate things. Orgasms were a bonus, not a source of trouble.

Jun Shang was meticulous in maintaining distance, considering it insurance for the future. Xiao never approached him first; they both understood this unspoken agreement well. They knew their relationship better than anyone, or so he believed.

This arrangement suited him perfectly. The shell was there, but the connection was hollow. That summed up their relationship. Divorce was never on the table.

That's how it was.

However...

"What did you say?"

His wife's usually cold voice had a different tone.

She looked at him as if he were playing a sick joke.

He found enjoyment in seeing her rigid face struggle to maintain its usual mask. Living with someone was an intriguing experience. Despite two years of living like strangers, he had come to understand her a bit better.

In the beginning, he overlooked them. The small habits, the shifts in her eyes, the various masks, and the walls she built around herself…

He even knew how she spent her days when he wasn't around. She usually secluded herself in her studio, drawing all day. By the time Jun Shang finished work, she'd prepare herself, tend to household matters, attend events with him, and once a week, give a lecture at the university.

Would she continue this routine after their divorce?

Whatever. It was pointless to dwell on that.

Walking past misty buildings in the pouring rain, Jun Shang was on his way back to the place they had called 'home' for the past two years. Despite this, he had initially planned to inform Xiao about their divorce. So, what made him change his mind so suddenly? It seemed ridiculous even to himself, and he guessed his wife probably felt the same way.

If Jun Shang hadn't seen the anticipation and joy in his wife's expression back in the parlor, he would have gone through with the planned divorce.

What are you thinking, Jun Shang?
