The wedding began, and Father Lu took Lu Ning's hand and walked towards the center of the auditorium step by step.

With the appearance of Lu Ning, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Lu Ning calculated the time in his mind and couldn't help but glance at the progress bar above his head.

And just as she raised her head, her sight fell on the figure opposite her.

The lighting in the auditorium was soft. The man in front of him was tall, with deep eyebrows and eyes. He had a cold temperament in his movements. No joy or anger could be seen on his calm face, but he gave people a sense of calmness, self-control, and steadiness.

With just one glance, Lu Ning was able to confirm the other person's identity, the villain Xie Qingxing.

Perhaps noticing Lu Ning's gaze, Xie Qingxing subconsciously raised his head and looked at Lu Ning.

The moment their eyes met, Lu Ning clearly saw the other person smiling at him.

The smile was not gentle, but instead made Lu Ning subconsciously feel a chill down his spine.

"system?"

Lu Ning called the system in his mind.

【What's the matter, my dear host. 】

"Has the villain met the original owner before?" Lu Ning suddenly asked.

The look that Xie Qingxing gave her just now made her feel that something was not right, but for a moment she couldn't figure out what was going on.

[According to the original book, the first meeting between the villain and the female supporting character should be after the female supporting character escapes from her marriage.] The system's tone was brisk.

Lu Ning frowned.

"Xiao Ning, what's wrong with you?" Noticing that Lu Ning's movements were a little stiff, Lu's father couldn't help but ask with concern.

Lu Ning came back to her senses and concealed the strangeness in her eyes, "Nothing, just a little nervous."

"Don't worry. If the Xie family dares to treat you badly, Mom and Dad will help you vent your anger." Even though he lowered his voice, Father Lu's words still reached Lu Ning's ears clearly.

Lu Ning smiled. She was not worried about how the Xie family would treat her. What was important was what the villain Xie Qingxing was thinking.

As the music was coming to an end, Lu Ning was led by Lu's father to Xie Qingxing.

Xie Qingxuan raised his head and his eyes fell on Lu Ning's face.

However, apart from the initial brief surprise, he did not see any displeasure on Lu Ning's face.

On the contrary, Lu Ning had a smile on his face and his eyes were shining.

The way he looked at him was as if he was looking at... a treasure?

Xie Qingxing was shocked by this realization.

I even thought I might be hallucinating.

However, in Lu Ning's view, Xie Qingxing in front of her is not a treasure, after all, it is a matter of life and death for her.

So much so that when Xie Qingying extended his hand to her, Lu Ning handed it over without hesitation.

Xie Qingxing's hands are much bigger than Lu Ning's. Both of them have cold white skin, which makes them look surprisingly harmonious.

The wedding process took quite a while, but unfortunately, by the time it came to Lu Ning, she had only completed one-sixth of the task.

Most of the guests attending the wedding were relatives and friends of the Xie family or business contacts.

Lu Ning doesn't need to deal with these people, Xie Qingxing can handle them alone.

Xie Qingxing's parents died early, so Lu Ning only needed to go with Xie Qingxing to meet the old man of the Xie family.

Until the end of the wedding, Lu Ning always stayed by Xie Qingxuan's side to complete system tasks.

Even Xie Qingxing couldn't help but start to wonder what Lu Ning was going to do.

He always knew that Lu Ning was not satisfied with this marriage. After all, everyone in the entire circle knew that the man from the Lu family only had Jiang Yunxiao in his mind.

In Xie Qingxing's original plan, he had even thought of a solution for what would happen if Lu Ning escaped from the marriage.

pity……

Lu Ning's performance today was completely beyond his expectations, and even made him wonder if the other party had become a different person.

It was not until the two of them returned to the Xie family that Xie Qingxing looked at Lu Ning, who was still holding him and refusing to let go, and asked, "Miss Lu, what do you want to do?"

Lu Ning stared at the slowly growing progress bar above his head, feeling a little worried.

Although she didn't know how much health she would get after completing the task, according to the current progress, she was worried that she would die suddenly because the progress bar suddenly returned to zero.

"I want to be with you." Lu Ning almost blurted out after hearing that.

Xie Qingxuan: “…”

"Also, we are already married, why call me Miss Lu? That's too formal." Lu Ning turned her head and looked at Xie Qingxing with a smile, one hand falling on Xie Qingxing's wrist.

I wonder if my health will increase faster if I touch it more often.

"Then what should I call you?" Xie Qingxing glanced at his wrist and suddenly asked.

Lu Ning tried to pull Xie Qingxing's sleeve, "Of course I call you wife."

Seeing that Lu Ning's hand was about to touch his arm, Xie Qingxuan finally said in a deep voice, "Lu Ning."

“Huh?” Lu Ning raised his head, not feeling the slightest bit embarrassed about being caught behaving like a hooligan.

"Let go." Xie Qingxing frowned, feeling that the Lu Ning in front of him was completely different from what he had heard before.

She didn't run away on the wedding day, nor did she even show any displeasure. She also... kept sticking with him, as if they really chose to be together because they loved each other.

Xie Qingxing's face darkened. As far as he knew, Lu Ning was deeply in love with Jiang Yunxiao and it was impossible for her to suddenly fall in love with someone else, let alone that person being him.

So, what is she planning?

Noticing the change in Xie Qingxing's eyes, Lu Ning tactfully let go of his hand.

She glanced at her current health value, and after confirming that there were no special changes, she sat aside obediently.

The two of them are now in Xie Qingxing's bedroom. Lu Ning thought that she could just stay here until dark, and the task of sleeping for eight hours at a time could definitely be accomplished easily.

Unfortunately, she misjudged Xie Qingxing's personality. Lu Ning watched Xie Qingxing change his clothes and walk out of the bedroom under her gaze.

"It's so late, where are you going, Mr. Xie?" Seeing that the human-shaped blood bar was about to run away, Lu Ning stood up suddenly.

Xie Qingxuan paused and said, "Go to the study."

There are still many things waiting for him to deal with in the company.

What's more, the smooth completion of today's wedding was not in his original plan.

Lu Ning said "oh" and quickly followed.

But before she could get close, Xie Qingxing stopped her and said, "You should rest first."

After saying that, Xie Qingxuan pushed the door open and walked out, leaving only his tall back to Lu Ning.

[Host, there are only four hours left, come on~]

Lu Ning glanced at her health points and rubbed her wrist. It seemed that she needed to be more proactive.

……

A few minutes later, the system saw Lu Ning coming downstairs.

After a few seconds, the system saw Lu Ning walking out of the kitchen with a knife.

[Host, what are you doing? ] The system exclaimed.

Its host wouldn't be planning to kill people in a rage to silence them.

Lu Ning turned the knife in her hand, opened the refrigerator and cut some fruit for herself. "Don't be nervous. I'm a good person who abides by the law."

She would not do something like committing a crime with a knife in the middle of the night, not to mention what would happen to her mission if Xie Qingxing died.

[Host, your words don't sound believable. ]

The system was very suspicious about what kind of host it was bound to and why it was different from what it expected.

Lu Ning finished her fruit and took the knife back to the kitchen. However, when she came out again, the knife in her hand had turned into a rolling pin.

【Host!】The system screamed.
