Red candles flickering around the surroundings, soft and delicate fragrance, and the sound of festive drumbeats in the distance…

Ye Jiayao slowly opened her gritty eyes to the sight of crimson celebratory curtains. She immediately scrambled to sit up, the hairs on the back of her neck standing up, as if she was startled awake from a nightmare. She looked at the ancient surroundings and hesitantly bit into her fair wrist.

to the sight of crimson celebratory curtains. She immediately scrambled to sit up, the hairs on the back of her neck standing up, as if she was startled awake from a nightmare. She looked at the ancient surroundings and hesitantly bit into her fair wrist.

Ouch!

So, this was not a dream. She really has… time-traveled.

The host was supposed to marry to Ji Nan prefectural magistrate’s eldest son, Wei Liujiang. No one knew that halfway through the journey, she would get kidnapped to Hei Feng Gang and would be forced to enter the bandits’ nest to become the wife of the third-in-charge.

She has already seen the first-in-charge and second-in-charge. The first-in-charge looked like a typical villain with his shady eyes and smile. Ye Jiayao could tell with one look that he was treacherous. The second-in-charge looked brawny, practically the reincarnation of Li Lu, so she deduced that the third-in-charge would probably be just more of the same type.

"F*ck!" she thought angrily. Running into this kind of situation as soon she woke up was just asking for her to die again, isn’t it?

No. She has to find a way to escape.

She got off the bed where she was lying down, but as soon as her feet touched the ground, she heard laughter coming from outside.

“Third brother! First brother said to get you a pretty wife, and I have kept my word! The chick in there is definitely fine and I heard that she is from a wealthy family. You would be satisfied for sure!”

“Thank you, second brother,” a slightly intoxicated yet gentle voice that does not fit in with the crowd of coarse voices, answered.

“The first night is short and every moment is worth thousands of gold. Third-in-charge has to enjoy himself,” someone said in an obscene tone.

“Third-in-charge, you have to make sure that your wife is unable to get out of bed for at least three days and three nights!” someone uttered loudly.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Upon hearing that, Ye Jiayao turned pale. They were all a bunch of lewd wolves! Heaven must have been blind if they haven’t been struck by lightning yet. Instead, they sent her – the girl who has been reincarnated through time with such difficulty – to this wolf pit.

Hearing the sound of the door unlocking, Ye Jiayao immediately jumped back on the bed and played possum. However, as soon as she lied down, she realized that her idea sucked. She should’ve hidden under the bed and made them think that the bride had run off. Surely, they would go searching for her everywhere and she would get the chance to escape. Now though, it was too late for regrets. The door has already opened and closed.

Opportunity often appears in a split second- once you miss it, it’s gone.

The footsteps were soft, almost inaudible, but she could feel that he was coming closer because she could smell the alcohol. As though she held a herd of rabbits in her chest, she pulled her bridal gown together nervously.

Xia Chunyu stood by the bed, looking at his bride from above. His eyes were as dark as ink, resembling two bottomless pools void of emotions. Yet, his heart was not calm.
