Chapter 145

Two weeks after the engagement.

Shang Xi and Gu Wen got married.

They had a simple, traditional wedding ceremony. She wore a wedding dress and sat in her own room, surrounded by family and friends. Gu Wen, dressed in a suit, carried her down the stairs and into the car.

Their marital home was the Rose Villa, where many roses were planted. Shang Bao's kindergarten was right behind it.

The Rose Villa had a helipad, with a plane bearing Shang Xi's name parked there. Though not as large as the Nanfeng Courtyard, it was more beautiful, with a natural lake and a rose garden.

Shang Xi felt her own two-bedroom apartment was too small, as the wolf's heightened senses made it feel cramped, and he could even hear the children in the neighboring rooms when they kissed.

The wolf's hearing was too sensitive, and the big and small wolves living in such a small house suffered.

The Rose Villa, with a family of three and some hired help for cooking and cleaning, was just right - not noisy or crowded.

Shang Xi didn't want to show her face or attract attention, so the Gu family only announced their marriage and didn't reveal her information.

The bags she had previously rejected were now piled up in two rooms, still unopened. The father and son tactfully didn't help Shang Xi unpack them. She would sometimes sit in the room and unpack them quietly by herself.

Shang Bao felt that his mother seemed to be enjoying it.

The rooms in the Cherry Blossom Villa had good soundproofing. Shang Bao's nursery was on the left side of the second floor, while the couple's room was on the right side, with the spacious staircase in between.

On their wedding day, Shang Xi had a few drinks during the toasts and was a bit tipsy.

Their wedding night.

Gu Wen took off his suit jacket, revealing a white shirt with a few smudged lipstick marks on the collar.

Gu Wen's eyes darkened, and his large black ears and tail emerged.

Shang Xi, flushed from the alcohol, had a hazy, seductive look like a bewitching demon.

Gu Wen frowned deeply, scooped her up, and pinned her to the bed, kissing her forcefully.

The next moment, his tail was grasped.

Shang Xi struggled to break free from his kiss, then looked up at the heavily breathing man above her with a smile, "I like your tail."

Gu Wen took a deep breath and nodded, "As you wish."

Just as he was about to kiss her again, a hand grabbed his ear, stroking it restlessly. The woman beneath him gazed at him with half-lidded eyes, smiling more beautifully than any flower on the snowy mountain.

Gu Wen was rejected at the door by his wife.

"Separate bedrooms, I said!"

Shang Xi was in the room, separated by a wall, unusually irritated.

The wolf's stamina was too strong, and she felt like she would be consumed. She also couldn't resist the temptation, becoming more and more... It seemed that separate bedrooms were the only way to keep her sane.

"Take any room, go sleep there," she said after calming down a bit.

"Ah Shang, separate bedrooms won't work." The man's voice came through the door, a resigned sigh laced with a hint of sadness. "We just got married, have you already grown tired of me?"

"Ah Shang, don't you like me anymore?"

Shang Xi paused, realizing this lone wolf had overthought again.

She opened the door and tried to explain, "It's not that I..."

Before she could finish, she was pulled into an embrace.

Gu Wen's low voice murmured in her ear, with a hint of placation, "Ah Shang knows I tend to overthink, so let's not have separate bedrooms, okay?"

"Ah Shang, I love you."

Gu Wen hugged her tightly, his voice growing more downcast, "We wolves are just so clingy, do you find it annoying?"

Shang Xi felt this man was...

Overly dramatic, his thoughts too dangerous!

Wolves living with pure humans seem to have a severe lack of security, even for Gu Wen.

She hurriedly reassured him, "How could I find you annoying! Okay, okay, no separate bedrooms, but you have to listen to me."

"Okay, I'll listen."

Gu Wen agreed.

His sharp gaze narrowed, and the corner of his lips curled up slightly.
