Marriage of a Sickly Villain and a Fortune Hunter

rmed in his head.

He recalled one of his most profound memories of a scene later on in the book:

When Li Chengyuan fell ill, he was so weak that he could barely stand up, but even sitting in a wheelchair couldn’t stop him from going crazy.

Followed by bodyguards and the assistant pushing the wheelchair, he held a needle in one hand, laughing as he used the other hand to slowly bleed someone.

Then he threw the person into the ocean to feed the sharks, smiling as he watched the mad horror movie scene of a blood-stained sea.

In this book where moral values were distorted and the protagonist and the villain were gong and shou, the concept of a legal system in this society was quite weak, and it was almost impossible to reason with a crazy villain.

Xia Xingchi immediately trembled in fear.

He had always had a bad habit where the more nervous and timid he was, the more he couldn’t control his mouth, unable to keep from talking to ease the atmosphere:

“Sir, although I don’t want to miss out on love……I also honestly don’t want to lose my legs.
I won’t dare to randomly talk about love at first sight anymore.”

“I’m begging you, sir, forget about Xia Xingchi by Daming Lake,[1] let me jump into the lake myself, okay? At least there won’t be any sharks in it……”

Li Chengyuan ignored his babbling, just leaning back in the seat and closing his eyes to rest.

The more Xia Xingchi thought, the more frightened he became.
In the silent compartment, all that remained was his heart beating like a drum.

’

It was impossible to ask the big villain to let him go.

Xia Xinchi came to a decision, and while chattering and continuing to perform stand-up comedy, he quietly lowered his head to study the lock button on this Rolls Royce —

Just at the moment when the vehicle slowed down slightly for the red light ahead, Xia Xingchi immediately pressed the unlock button, pushed the door handle, and jumped out of the car at lightning speed!

Then, bang, his whole body slammed into the motionless car door.

Xia Xingchi: ……?

I don’t know if saying mmp[2] is appropriate, but I must speak.

At that ringing noise, Li Chengyuan, who had been stubbornly refusing to listen, finally opened his eyes and turned his head to look over.

Although his face was still expressionless, the moment the two looked at each other, Xia Xingchi could clearly see the instant burst of anger and violence in his eyes.

— So this was what he looked like when he was truly angry.

This thought instantly appeared in Xia Xingchi’s mind.
Even the previous rude words and pawing didn’t make him as angry as trying to jump out of the car and escape.

Xia Xingchi’s non-existent tail suddenly puffed up in fright.
Li Chengyuan’s gaze made his scalp go numb, and he quibbled with a dry smile: “I……was testing the quality of the door for you.
After all, driving safety is very, very important.”

“I didn’t expect the quality to be quite so good, hahaha……ha.”

Driver Xiao Wu heard the noise in the back seat and dared not speak out.
He could only admire in his heart: 

As expected of Mr.
Li, the child locks on the doors that he arranged in advance actually worked, and the doors couldn’t be opened from inside the car.

The air pressure in the car was getting lower and lower, practically crushing the breath out of people.

Co-pilot secretary Ye silently looked back in the rearview mirror, but when she met the dark, cold gaze of her boss, she quickly turned her head and didn’t dare to peek anymore.

Li Chenyuan had always been temperamental, and it may only be a matter of a second to irritate him.

“Xia Xingchi.” This was the first time he had called out his full name.
“Where are you trying to run again?”

His voice was inherently low, with an innate maliciousness and sense of oppression, especially when he was in a bad mood.

Xia Xingchi couldn’t help being distracted from the panic.
What was this “again?”

Could it be that the chaos of that night when he transmigrated could also be considered as running away?

’

Sir, are you speaking sense? At that time, only a fool would not run away from that situation, ah!

Before he had time to speak, Li Chengyuan actually bullied him directly, and the distance between them narrowed in an instant.

He was forced to retreat again and again, until at last his back was against the door of the car and there was nowhere to hide.

Who would have guessed that the location of the villain’s minefield was so particular and strange, and that inadvertently stepping on it would be so scary?

Xia Xingchi was nearly scared into the famous painting “The Scream.” This time, he even choked back his cursing without a word, and could only clench his right fist and consider whether he could win the fight.

When Li Chengyuan was not suffering from hypoglycemia, he could easily put people on the ground.

It showed that his sickly and frail handsome appearance couldn’t be believed.
Not to mention he had gradually recovered now, and a fight with him would only result in a loss.

The automatic privacy screen had closed at some point without a sound, and the spacious rear seat instantly became a nearly airtight space.

That scorching breath was getting closer and closer, and Xia Xingchi was pinned against the corner of the car.
He had to look up directly into the crazy and terrifying eyes of the big villain.

The atmosphere was instantly tense.
In the face of the cruel, insane villain, it would be a lie to say that he was not afraid.

Li Chengyuan’s eyes were like a fierce beast staring at its prey, which was definitely not the behavior of a normal, clear-headed person. 

This was what he looked like after his inverse scale was touched.

Could it be that some butterfly effect was accidentally triggered, and not only did the marriage go forward without reason, but Li Chengyuan went crazy ahead of time?

He doesn’t want to strangle me now, does he? As soon as this idea popped up, Xia Xingchi, who was not very courageous from the beginning, was frightened out of his wits.

He clenched his fists nervously, and something suddenly pinched between his fingers —

It was that fully-jeweled pigeon egg diamond ring.

As if he had reached some sort of enlightenment, a miraculous halo of inspiration flashed across his panicked brain, and suddenly there was a justification:

He can’t kill me, because I’m his fiance!

Having reached enlightenment, Xia Xingchi gritted his teeth and directly grabbed the collar of Li Chengyuan’s shirt with one hand, pressing the back of his neck with the other —

Then closed his eyes and kissed him hard!
