Wedding Night: The Mute Wife Starts to Speak

"How dare you plot against me!" Hu Ke was awakened from her sleep by a man's angry roar. Before she could wake up from her groggy state, she was pulled up by the person beside her.

Hu Ke struggled with all her might, but she felt sore all over and could not exert any strength at all.

Bai Xiao did not expect that someone would dare to plot against him at someone else's funeral.

He had been careless yesterday and did not even know that someone had drugged the alcohol he drank. In the end, a woman appeared on his bed and the two of them had sex.

"You came to my side for money and status, right? I'm warning you, don't even think about it!" He had seen too many women who wanted to use underhanded methods to climb up the ranks. Just looking at them made him feel disgusted.

"Remember to take the contraceptive pill. Don't try to threaten me with a child." Bai Xiao's tone was irrefutable.

Hu Ke wanted to distance herself from this man who did not look like someone to be trifled with, but her wrist was held tightly by Bai Xiao. There were already red marks on her wrist, and it was so painful that she cried.

Where was she? She was at her parents' funeral. Why was she lying naked on the hotel bed now?

Hu Ke looked at the man in front of her in fear, her big eyes filled with tears. She heard the man's question, but she was born mute and could not speak at all, let alone answer the man.

"Why are you pretending to be pitiful? Are you mute? Can't you answer when I speak to you?" Bai Xiao looked at Hu Ke, who did not speak and only shook her head, and felt inexplicably annoyed.

He did not intend to negotiate with Hu Ke, so he shook off Hu Ke's wrist and found his phone in the mess. He asked his assistant to send clothes over.

Bai Xiao walked into the bathroom to take a shower. He had been drugged yesterday and was in a daze. Now that he thought about it, he felt disgusted and desperately wanted to wash up.

The assistant was very fast. He placed the clothes outside the bathroom partition and left without even looking at Hu Ke.

"I know your family. After they went bankrupt, your parents jumped off a building, leaving only you and your brother. Oh, right, there's also a sister-in-law." After Bai Xiao took a shower, he turned to look at Hu Ke while drying his hair, his face filled with coldness.

"I don't hit women, so today's matter ends here. However, don't push your luck. You have to know that your family doesn't have the ability to match me at all. I advise you to be sensible and not provoke me again."

After saying this, Bai Xiao left without looking at Hu Ke again.

Hu Ke, who was lying on the bed, heard the door close and slowly got up from the bed.

She was very tired. There was no part of her body that didn't hurt.

Hu Ke picked up the clothes that were scattered on the ground. Although they were wrinkled, they could still be worn. She moved into the bathroom step by step. Every step involved the pain at the base of her thigh. The short distance took a long time.

Hu Ke soaked herself in the water and scrubbed over and over again, but the marks on her body could not be washed off no matter what, reminding her of what had happened yesterday.

She was originally raised by her family. Although her family's company was not as big as those big shots in the industry, it was still considered a wealthy family. However, a sudden change almost bankrupted her family. In the end, her parents could not take the blow and jumped off a building to commit suicide.

Yesterday was her parents' funeral. Hu Lai seemed to be afraid that she would cry until she was dehydrated, so he gave her a drink. Hu Ke was not guarded against her brother and drank it directly. However, she did not expect Hu Lai to sacrifice his biological sister for benefits and send her to Bai Xiao's bed.

Hu Ke washed herself for a long time. In a daze, she recalled what had happened yesterday. In the end, she remembered that she should go to the pharmacy to buy contraceptive pills first. At the very least, she should remedy the situation and not let Hu Lai succeed. Moreover, she did not intend to get pregnant with Bai Xiao's child.

However, when she struggled to walk out of the hotel, she was grabbed by a few bodyguards who were waiting downstairs and they forcefully took her away.

Hu Ke tried to struggle, but how could she be stronger than a few adult males? Her cries for help were like a broken wooden box being blown by the wind. There were only a few useless breaths.

In the end, Hu Ke was pressed into the car. She leaned against the seat weakly and watched the car drive home. However, the anger in her heart was slowly rising.

When they reached their destination, the bodyguards did not let down their guard. They carried Hu Ke to the living room and placed her in front of Hu Lai.

Looking at his brother, whom he had once trusted, Hu Ke gestured angrily in sign language.

[Why are you using me? You're my brother!]

"It's because I'm your brother that I'm doing this!" Hu Lai looked at Hu Ke and said slowly.

"You're also a member of the Hu family. Now that Mom and Dad are gone and the family is facing bankruptcy, what's wrong with sacrificing yourself? Only by getting pregnant with Bai Xiao's child can you save the family!"

After saying that, Hu Lai ignored Hu Ke. In any case, she was mute and could not speak even if she was extremely angry. It was fine as long as she did not look at the sign language.

Hu Lai said to his wife, Wang Man, "Keep an eye on her during this period of time. Don't let her go out and run around. When she's pregnant, ask Bai Xiao for an explanation. Otherwise…" Hu Lai smiled sinisterly.

He had a photo of them together yesterday.
