Arrogant Wife Forcing Marriages (Indonesia)

Spin off Arrogant Wife Forced Marriage Chapter 17 (S2)

     Li Huan Rui walked into the room, he quietly approached his wife who was already curled up on the bed. He slowly lay down beside her then hugged her waist. Bai Xiao had not fully slept. He thrashed.

"Mr Li, let me go"

Li Huan Rui actually held him tighter and tighter.

"My wife, let me hold you. I promise I won't do more than hug"

"Mr Li, why don't you go find another woman you can hug. I'm sure the ladies will line up for you'"

"My wife, I don't like strangers filling me, I don't want to satiate other women either"

"Also, I already have my wife, how could I play with another woman"

"Don't you just meet another woman"

"Are you following me?"

"I only saw the moment when it happened to pass by while shopping earlier"

"I did meet someone but my mom had arranged about the date"

"My mom wanted me to find a woman for me to marry. But you take it easy I've asked my mom not to do it again and let me choose my own choice"

"...i won't betray you, my wife, I promise you"

"Mr Li why are you promising something that maybe in the future you will deny"

"No, I wouldn't do that. My wife, I was bad in the past. I'm playing you and Helena, I can't change the past but I want to fix it. My wife, let's start our new life as a real couple"

"I know it's hard for you to love me but at least can you open a little of your heart for me. I promise you I won't hurt you"

"I promised Papa Fan that if I hurt you and betray you I would give my life"

Bai Xiao was surprised to hear what Li Huan Rui said, could it be because it was her stepfather who had previously refused but in the last moment she finally accepted her decision to marry Li Huan Rui.

Bai Xiao turned around and looked at Li Huan Rui.

"Why do you promise such a stupid thing?"

"My wife, I'm serious about my promise from the bottom of my heart"

He gently stroked Bai Xiao's face.

"I've made you suffer so much in the past, I know my mistakes are so great to you that I don't want to hurt you anymore, I don't want to make you suffer anymore. I'll pay for all your suffering"

"Li Huan Rui, you don't have to do this out of guilt..."

"No, this is not guilt. My wife, I love you"

Bai Xiao looked at the man who was looking at her gently.

"For me to see you hurt as much as pain is for me, your suffering is like suffering for me, and also if I betray you it is a sin for me"

"I will not force you to return my feelings but open your little heart to feel my sincerity and remove the wounds in your heart"

Bai Xiao felt the sincerity from the man's eyes, nor did he see the lies from his eyes his heart began to waver. Yet there was still doubt for him, should he open his heart to the man? Can she trust him again and give him her heart.

Li Huan Rui realized the doubt in Bai Xiao's eyes. He gave a soft kiss on his forehead.

"It's night, go to sleep"

Li Huan Rui let go of his embrace and woke up.

"Where are you going?"

"To the workspace"

Li Huan Rui replied briefly then left the study. Bai Xiao tried to sleep but she could not sleep, she kept thinking about what Li Huan Rui had told her

***

"Mama, there's a black circle under your eyes"

Li Huan Rui only realized that.

"Wife, I'm sorry I interrupted your sleep last night"

"No, it's not like that"

"Papa, what did you do to Mama last night?"

Yimin uttered in a curious tone.

"We're just talking to each other"

"Just chatting? Really true?"

"really"

"Papa must go to work. Yimin, is it okay if you're driven by a driver? Papa should attend the morning meeting"

"It's okay, papa"

Li Huan Rui gave a kiss on his daughter's forehead. He then turned around.

"Wait, papa. Why don't you give your mom a kiss too, isn't it unfair that only Yimin gets a kiss, you must be sad"

"Yimin, what are you talking about"

Bai Xiao became a canticle when Li Huan Rui turned his head towards him. He approached her and gave a kiss on the forehead.

"I'm going, my wife"

"Be careful on the road.my husband"

Li Huan Rui was silent for a moment when he heard the last word his wife said. She called him 'my husband' . Li Huan Rui did not know what this sign was that his wife was starting to accept him or this was just pretending to be affectionate for the sake of their daughter. But Li Huan Rui still felt happy. A smile was etched on his lips.

***

  Li Huan Rui's mood was good, he even returned greetings from his employees.

"Did you guys see? President Li returned my greeting?"

A female officer smiles at pleasure.

"Hey, he's replying to everyone's greeting"

The woman's friend rebuked him.

"really? "

The woman looked at Li Huan Rui who also replied to everyone who greeted her. The woman finally came out of her fantasy.

"However, isn't it strange that the usually cold president Li becomes friendly?"

"Right, maybe he's in a good mood. Maybe this meeting won't be so stressful. I hope President Li continues in this kind of good mood"

"really"

***

Mo An An and Li Yongfan visited his beloved daughter.

"Did he treat you well?" Li Yongfan asked his daughter.

"Yes, he treats me well"

"Xiao xiao, are you guys still not planning a honeymoon? It's good for you to spend some time together to cultivate affection"

"Mama, we're a couple who already have a daughter for what honeymoon "

"If you already have a child but it never hurts not to spend time together"

"Xiao xiao, if you're worried about leaving Yimin then mama will take care of him. You can go have fun with Li Huan Rui and enjoy your youth"

"Mama, how could I have fun if I went without Yimin. I'm sure Li Huan Rui must have thought like that after all he's been busy lately"

"Xiao xiao's..."

"Here you go, I don't want to talk about this anymore"

"Xiao xiao, are you still unable to accept Li Huan Rui?"

"Mama initially also felt that he was a bad man but heard that he treated you well and he also looked to love Yimin. Mama knows she's sincere with you. Daughter, the past can't be changed, but that doesn't mean you have to fall because of the past"

"Xiao xiao, didn't you change your name to live your new life and forget the past so why don't you start a new life with Li Huan Rui"

"You're right, it's not good to fall into the past"

Bai Xiao was silent. My mom and dad were right. She should not have fallen into the past and Li Huan Rui's attitude was also better towards her, nor did the sincerity Li Huan Rui said last night start to touch her heart but she was still afraid. He was afraid of the madness of love in the past. He if the man's feelings turned out to be just a pity that was mistaken for a feeling of love. Bai Xiao was afraid that he might not be able to get up again if he was injured again.

  Bai Xiao did not say anything to his mother and father. He drank his tea to calm his feelings.

***

   Li Huan Rui came home late because he had to attend the company's latest product release. Li Huan Rui went to her daughter's room to check on her daughter. Li Huan Rui approached and saw the book still open and the lights were still on, perhaps his daughter was asleep while studying. Li Huan Rui tidied up his book and enveloped his daughter.

"Papa"

Yimin slowly opened his eyes.  Li Huan Rui smiled warmly.

"Did papa wake you?"

Yimin. He got up and hugged his father.

"It's okay papa, Yimin understands that papa must have a job"

Yimin explained his embrace.

"Papa must be tired. Papa better rest"

Li Huan Rui nodded.

"You too"

Yimin nodded.

***

Li Huan Rui went to his room.

"You haven't slept? Was my wife waiting for me on purpose"

Li Huan Rui deliberately teased him.

"No, I just can't sleep"

"Why? Is there something bothering you?"

The thing that made Bai Xiao unable to sleep was that she was worried that her husband would come home late but she could not possibly say that.

"none. I just can't sleep"

Li Huan Rui did not say anything more. He took his pajamas.

"Have you had dinner"

"Not yet"

Li Huan Rui had not even had time to eat anything at the event because many people invited him to talk.

"Do you want to eat something?"

"Are you going to cook for me?"

"Yes. Although I'm not sure I can cook a complicated meal but at least I can make noodles"

"That's no problem. Whatever my wife cooks will be the best and most delicious meal"

Bai Xiao did not say anything. He went straight out of the room. Li Huan Rui immediately walked into the bathroom. He took a quick shower because he was afraid his wife's cooking was cold.

***

Bai Xiao did not know why he was doing this but seeing his exhausted face as well as his busyness, he could not ignore it.  Bai Xiao refused to accept the man but his heart started to be moved by the man. She eventually decides to accept this relationship but she tries not to get dissolved in the feelings of love.

Bai Xiao gasped in shock as a pair of hands hugged her from behind.

"Mr Li"

"My wife, why did your call change again. I love hearing you call me like this this morning"

"Please wait at the dinner table. The food is ready"

"But I still want to hug you"

Bai Xiao turned off the stove.

"You can hold me later. Aren't you hungry?"

Bai Xiao took off his embrace forcefully. Li Huan Rui reluctantly moved away and went to the dining table. Not long ago Bai Xiao brought a plate of noodles for him.

"Thank you my wife. Aren't you eating?"

"I've eaten"

"Then sit down and feed me"

Bai Xiao simply complied and sat down. Li Huan Rui started to enjoy his food.

"It's so good, it's better than the chef's head cuisine"

"You're overreacting"

"Aki seriously. My wife's cooking is the best"

Bai Xiao did not say anything. Bai Xiao only looked at her husband who was enjoying his cooking with delight.

  After Li Huan Rui finished eating, Bai Xiao picked up her plate to wash. But Li Huan Rui was blocking him.

"Let me. I don't want my wife's hands to be rough with laundry soap"

"You're overreacting, I'm used to doing this anyway"

"You've cooked me dinner so let me wash it. Wife go back to the room and rest"

"Can you do the dishes?"

"Do you underestimate your husband? Take it easy, your husband can do anything"

"But,..."

Li Huan Rui carried her bridal style . Bai Xiao wanted to shout but he was afraid of waking everyone up.

"Mr Li, what are you doing "

"I'll take you to your room and rest"

Li Huan Rui placed it on the bed quietly and then wrapped it.

"Let me rest who will wash dishes and other utensils"

"But,..."

"Sleep"

Li Huan Rui then left him.

"Mr Li"

"Hm"

Li Huan Rui turned around.

"After washing go back to sleep in the room do not spend the night in the workspace"

Bai Xiao immediately closed his eyes after saying that he did not realize the smile he was engraved with.

"Wife, is this an invitation for me?"

Bai Xiao did not say anything. Li Huan Rui sighed looking at his sleeping wife. Li Huan Rui immediately left the room and washed the dishes and utensils vigorously and quickly. He wanted to go into the room and sleep next to his wife.

After he finished, Li Huan Rui quickly returned to his room. He lay down beside his wife. He let out a heavy sigh indicating his wife was fast asleep. He looked at the innocent face of his wife. He kissed her lips gently then he hugged his wife.

"Good night my wife"

Li Huan Rui had always dreamed of this moment when this woman left her life. Being beside the woman he loved like this was still a fantasy for him. He didn't want a dream like this to end, he wouldn't be able to lose it again. Li Huan Rui started to close his eyes and fell asleep. He used to not sleep easily but now he quickly felt sleepy.

***

"Mr Li...Mr. Li..."

Bai Xiao called out to the man who was still sound asleep.

"Li Huanru... Li Huan Rui"

Bai Xiao ventured to call out his name. Li Huan Rui slowly opened his eyes.

"Wake up, don't you have to go to the office. You can be late later"

"It's okay, I'm the boss. It's okay to be late sometimes"

Li Huan Rui closed his eyes again and tightly hugged his wife.

Bai Xiao felt astonished that his wife was always concerned about work.

"Mr Li, Yimin must have been waiting for us in the dining room"

"Give me a morning kiss and then I'll wake up"

Tok tok tok tok

"Mama, papa, breakfast time"

"Yimin, we'll be right downstairs"

"Mr Li, get up quickly"

"Give me a kiss"

"Mr Li, don't act like such a child. Come on, get up"

Li Huan Rui finally opened his eyes and woke up and gave a short kiss to his wife and went straight into the bathroom. Bai Xiao was just fixated with that sudden kiss. He sighed at the behavior of the always cold Shen company heir turned into a thick-skinned man

A/N: like it's too easy for Li Huan Rui to get Bai Xiao (Li Jiao) but at least in this chapter I let them be happy first.
