The Ou Residence Is Like A Haunted House

In her extra bedroom, Xia Zhiwan grabbed her phone and opened the conversation between her and Issac.

Issac had forced her to add the word "husband" to the remarks section of his contact number. Once she saw that remark, a single tear dropped on the phone and blurred the screen.

She thought that she could regain her dignity once she became the general manager.

However, the reality was that she was still the same weak person who was unable to protect her mother. She could not even control her own marriage.

Memories of Issac's exquisite looks and passionate kiss touching her lips flashed through her mind. She could still hear his sweet words of love in her ears. However, even amidst the sweet feelings, she could feel excruciating pain in her heart.

Xia Zhiwan was just a despondent young miss in her family. Her family's company was still in Isaac's hands. She could not be considered to be a perfect match for someone who was blessed by the gods like Issac. 

To him, letting go was a good thing.

Xia Zhiwan edited a text message. After thinking about it, again and again, she decided to send the message.

[Thank you Mr. Chairman for taking care of me all this while. I will try my best to repay you.]

[Even though we had spent a night together, please treat that as a misunderstanding. I wish you happiness in the future.]

[I will be marrying the young master of the Ou family soon. Apart from our relationship at work, there will be nothing else between us.]

[Sorry! I was the one who had disappointed you.]

Xia Zhiwan then deleted his contact with those shaky hands of hers.

Even though this did not mean that their relationship would end smoothly just like that, at the very least, she gave herself some space to avoid him.

In the future, all she could do was to avoid bumping into him in the company.

Issac quickly received the message.

He grabbed his phone and stared at the words on the screen. He read the messages again and again with those deep eyes of his.

He was on the border of constraining himself, yet he chuckled and threw his phone away.

She called him the chairman, and that she wanted to maintain a strictly business-only relationship? She did not want to have anything to do with him in the future? In her dreams!

Ever since she came into his world and provoked him, he had always been thinking about her.

She no longer had the opportunity to leave him.

…

The marriage day arrived swiftly. Xia Zhiwan received her wedding dowry, gown, and ring from the Ou family.

The Ou family might be a big corporation, but they were only big within the industry.

However, the wedding dowry that they had prepared had far exceeded the Xia family's capabilities. Even Xia Dengfeng was left speechless.

Even though he did not know whether it was as reparations, or it was for other reasons.

As the young master of the Ou family had been paralyzed in bed for many years, the standard procedure of a wedding ceremony did not exist.

It was a miracle that he was able to open his eyes, let alone enter the wedding hall with her.

Xia Zhiwan thought that this was a good thing. Otherwise, she did not know if she dared to say "I do" to an emotionless man under the watchful eyes of the public.

There was no wedding ceremony, no blessings, and no bridesmaids as well as groomsmen.

The girl who used to be blessed by the gods had a wedding that was more tragic than a regular person.

Xia Zhiwan was then sent to the Ou residence after marrying someone in a muddle-headed state.

Furthermore, she suspected that she was not sent into the main mansion.

Otherwise, why would a house be so deserted? It did not feel like people were living in that house.

There was a thin veil of dust on the luxurious furniture as there was barely any light in the large mansion. There were only a few people in the house. It was as if the place was a haunted house.

A middle-aged woman known as Aunty Rong looked at Xia Zhiwan and pointed upstairs.

"Chairman Ou and Madame Ou are usually outside. The young master is the only person living upstairs in this house. I am his caretaker."

"Will I be living here too? Can I return to the Xia residence?"

"You married into the Ou family, so you are a part of this family as well. You are going to be living with the young master of course," Aunty Rong rejected Xia Zhiwan's request with an emotionless face and brought her upstairs.

There was not a single trace of light in the long corridor. Xia Zhiwan grew anxious. Once she walked into a room, she could feel chills all over her body.

A black-haired guy was lying on the wide bed. It was as if he was sleeping. However, his pale expression and stiff body could not help but make people worry that he might pass away in silence at the very next second.

"You know about the young master's condition too. He won't wake up anytime soon. He will also be sent to the hospital for his check-up occasionally. However, as his wife, you will still need to take care of him."

Aunty Rong then left after saying that.

Once she thought that this person was her future husband, and the fact that she would need to sleep with him on the same bed, Xia Zhiwan's heart began to harbor complicated feelings.

Looking at the Ou Ruoming who was in a deep sleep, she found that even if he did look sickly, his exquisite looks, deep eyes, and handsome facial contours made him look like a totally hot dude.

Furthermore…he looked like Issac!
