Lily's body hurt so much. It hurt so much that it felt as if she were being ripped apart. Lily really wanted to cry a river and file for injustice.
Lily was innocent. Really innocent, okay? Lily wasn't the soul that had irritated him. Not at all! She was only an innocent victim who got dragged into this chaos! Hope he knew!
Yet that beast-like man had tossed her around and eaten her to the bone until she kept saying nonsense and pleading for him to let her go.
Yet Zane Ji had refused until Lily fainted.
The more she thought about it, the more Lily wanted to cry a river. She was so pitiful. Truly pitiful.
Lily felt that her life would be really pitiful in the next six months to come.
Anyway, Lily had thought it through, and what she planned was to get a divorce with lots of alimony instead of a death sentence.
And after the divorce, Lily would live like a salted fish.
Just thinking about it made Lily's unpleasant mood become better.
Well… if Lily could remember right.
According to the script, that man should have left now, right?
Thinking like this, Lily tried to stretch her hand, but in the next moment, she winced pitifully.
The male lead was too cruel to this cannon fodder! Lily really wanted to file a report.
How good would it be if Lily were accompanied by a system? She wouldn't feel so lost!
Due to her small movement, Lily didn't find a trace of anyone.
So, Lily bit her lower lip and opened her eyes. But in the next second…
Lily froze and shivered pitifully when deep, piercing black eyes met her gaze.
Immediately, Lily tried to shrink back, only to realize that she was at the far end of the bed.
No wonder Lily couldn't feel Zane's presence!
The bed was large enough to fit more than eight people.
And since Lily must have unconsciously run to the far end to get away from that nasty, lustful man, she couldn't reach Zane at all.
At that moment, Lily wanted to bawl. The plot had gone out of line again! Why was he here? Why? Shouldn't he have gone? Shouldn't he?
Lily sneaked a look at Zane. Yet, Zane was still looking at Lily.
Thinking about it, Zane must be trying to give her a death sentence, isn't it?
Lily's eyes flashed with determination. That was the last thing she'd ever give a chance to.
Suddenly, a thought appeared in Lily's mind. She had to clarify. Yes, Lily needed to clarify.
If one day Lily had to go through another torturous night, she'd really sit down and begin to cry a river while contemplating how to commit suicide with tofu!
Lily sat up while biting her lower lip and suppressing her urge to curse due to the pain. She really wanted to grab the male lead and shake him hard.
"I'm not the female lead, okay? You can't treat me like this. I don't have the female lead's sexual halo that can help me pass through such a torturous night. I'm just a cannon fodder. A cannon fodder with no stamina."
Surprisingly, despite the wild thoughts running through Lily's mind, none of them appeared on her face.
Lily donned a calm smile on her face and bowed lightly. Her expression turned serious and businesslike—the one she would use while dealing with business partners. "Mr. Ji, I don't know what happened for you to lose control and do that to me in such a way last night."
Lily paused and cleared her throat, her face reddening due to embarrassment. "But I figured that you might have been drugged or drunk against your will, so I'll let it pass. I know Mr. Ji isn't interested in marriage, so I'm promising you that I'll stick to myself and hide the marriage from everyone. I won't interfere in your business, nor will we interfere in each other's business. Whenever Mr. Ji or I find someone we like, then we can quietly get a divorce and leave each other's lives. What do you think?"
Lily had read through novels. A lot of novels. And watched several movies.
Lily had seen many act cute and feign innocence, only to be tossed about, dumped, or, if lucky… end up with the male lead after passing through the female lead, villains, and side characters' endless scheming that would keep going until the end of that lifetime.
As for Lily, she was different and had no intention of going through a lot of schemes, okay?
Lily just wanted to be a salted fish in this life—going shopping, spending money, reading novels, and most importantly, papapa novels while having fun with handsome men.
Lily's eyes fixated on Zane Ji anxiously.
To change this cannon fodder's miserable fate, Lily must come up with ideas to make Zane Ji forget her so he would obediently dump her in six months!
A cold sneer donned Zane's lips. It was up to her to state when she wanted to marry and when she wanted a divorce.
After last night, Lily must've been scared out of her wits and wanted to look for another man.
Thinking about it, wasn't Lily known to be in love with a man before she met him?
Lily had been so persistent before the marriage and wanted to enter his life at all costs.
What now? She was tired already?
Suddenly, Zane's hand grabbed Lily's hand, making her eyes widen. She cried out in a stutter, "Mr. Ji. Mr. Ji. Zane Ji, what are you doing… Ah!"
