The Overnight Chosen Wife: darling, kiss me deeper

"Little troubleshooter, we meet again. If you are still thinking of trying to get away, you better give up that silly idea." Ji Xiehan said, pinning her against the wall. Li Lanni pushed her fists against his chest. "Is this how you say ‘Hi’ to all your interviewers, Mr. Ji?" "There is no interviewer and certainly no interviewee." The man grinned devilishly. "There is only a husband and a wife. My darling, how are you going to compensate for all the emotional damage you caused me by slipping away?" "What?" Heavens... just what had she gotten herself into? ….. Her life almost came to an end because of a tragic accident but instead, she lost her memory. Who would have thought that just when she was starting to get used to her new life, she would get trapped in a whirlwind engagement? Out of all kinds of injustice fate could do to her, why did her fiancé have to be that white-haired pervert?! "You better not fall in love with me!" she snarled at the man grinning before her. Ji Xiehan's smile deepened. "Are you... kidding me? Why would I fall in love with you?" Li Lanni: "You better mark your words." The man grinned and helplessly shook his head, how could he fall in love with the woman he was already in love with? Taking up the challenge to crawl into her heart, Ji Xiehan promised himself to always treat her well and love her. (Warning: This book features mature content) ...

Partners in crime

"I'm heading back too." Ah Chen said.

On their way back, he fought the urge to ask her out until he couldn't fight it anymore. "Lanni, could we go home together after school?"

Li Lanni wasn't an idiot. It was obvious that this young man liked her. She wasn't ready for any relationship. Who knew if she had a boyfriend already? Before she was sure that she remembered her past, she shouldn't simply get close to any man.

Hence, she rejected him politely. "After school, my mother will be waiting for me."

"How about tomorrow?"

"Sorry, I have to undertake extra classes at home."

Ah Chen was now sure that she was deliberately avoiding him.

If this was before, he would have cursed her and hurled rude insults at her. However, it was not the first time he was trying to ask Li Lanni out.

The first time he did so was a year ago when he first saw her. She had just entered university and was as innocent as any girl her age could be. At the time, she had given him the cold shoulder.

He was so angry that he ended up humiliating her in front of the other students.

One had to know that he was the heir of an aristocratic family. Not only that, he was also the most handsome guy in B City University as well as the one with the most excellent grades. His reputation was clean and he had only ever been with one girl before. What right did a girl have to reject him?

It was only later that he found out just how arrogant and immature he had been. The bad news was that Lanni had hated him already.

But, when he found out that she had lost her memory, he thought it would be a good chance to make up for his mistake. He would go after her and once she was his, he would treat her as best as he could. After all he still liked her.

This time, he didn't flare up when she deliberately rejected him. Had she recovered her memory?

He smiled like nothing happened. "Then I'll see you when you are free."

As soon as Ah Chen left, the girl beside Li Lanni looked like her gossipy nature had been piqued. "Lanni, I think the campus hunk likes you!"

Li Lanni didn't look interested. "Honestly, the last thing I want right now is to hear about men. I just feel uncomfortable around them."

Cheng Yu looked at her timidly, as though hesitating to ask something.

"If you have something to say, go ahead."

"Does… does that include Senior Yang?"

Li Lanni squinted her eyes. "Who is Senior Yang?"

"Huh?" The girl looked shocked. "You don't know? Wasn't he your…" She suddenly stopped.

"Why did you stop? What was he?"

Cheng Yu looked conflicted. "He… I'm only saying what I heard other people say."

"Go ahead."

"He is supposed to be your boyfriend. However, the rumors say that the day before your accident happened, you caught him together with Ji Feifei – you know, the girl you're always hanging out with – and you were very angry.

Although the rumors say that they were in a relationship, I don't think they were. They were more like partners in crime."

Partners in crime… partners in crime…

Those words played in her mind on repeat.

"Where is Senior Yang then?"

Cheng Yu looked miserable to be the one to tell her. "He was with you that day when you had that accident. His legs were badly injured and he fell into a vegetative state. The doctors think he will ever wake up and even if he miraculously does, he will be paralyzed forever."

Li Lanni looked at the timid girl and pinched her eyebrows. "Where did you get this information?"

"Ah? Lanni, those are just rumors I heard. None of it has been proven for sure."

"There's no smoke without a fire." Li Lanni mumbled.

Why was it that she had never heard of this before? It was all so new.

Didn't the police report say that she was the only one in her car and that she was driving under the influence of alcohol? At least that's what her mother said…

So what was this new crap about a man being with her all about? How come the police didn't know about him? Or did the police lie?

Though this 'Senior Yang' name sounded familiar and for a reason, she trembled just by thinking about it.

Thinking back to her hypnosis session, she did remember walking beside a man. She turned back later and saw him receiving a check from a woman.

If what Cheng Yu was saying was true, then it was possible that the woman she remembered was Ji Feifei – that was the only troublemaker that could come to her mind at the moment.

If it was as she thought, then whatever happened seven months ago was no accident. It was all pre-planned!

"Do you know which hospital this Senor Yang is admitted in?"

Cheng Yu was frightened by Li Lanni's sudden angry tone. She looked like she was about to kill someone. "I… I don't know for sure. I heard he's in the military hospital in the North District. His grandfather has a military rank so he brought him there so he could receive better care."

Li Lanni glanced at Cheng Yu. This girl had kept saying that it was all from the rumors and that she didn't know anything. Despite that, the information she gave was too detailed. Could it be a lie?

No way. She had to investigate this. If it was true, then she would have found out something of extreme importance. If it was a lie, there was nothing to lose. At most, she will have just wasted some time. She wasn't that busy anyway.

"Let's go or we will really be late."

"Okay." Cheng Yu tailed after.

Later, Cheng Yu made a call. "V, I have already done it. Lanni is going to investigate it. I made sure to make it sound like a rumor."

"Good." A metallic voice said.

"V, don't you think this method of telling her the truth was too…"

"Cruel? I don't care if it's cruel. In fact, cruel will make her as fierce as she should be in fighting them back."

Dear readers,
