The Devil who devoured Snow White

A week after…

The only time Mengmeng was able to see her fiancé again was on the day of their wedding day and it was during that day that she ended up falling in love with him at first sight… again. 

Seeing the man in a white suit was enough to captivate her heart. He was the most handsome man she has ever laid her eyes on. She ended up confusing her superficial adoration into love. He may have no love in his eyes but at that moment, she was confident that she could make him turn her way.

The wedding ceremony didn't take long. It wasn't grand either. The only guests were the old man, his trusted right hand, and Bai Jingye's father and brother.

Even if she was trying to turn a blind eye, she couldn't help but wonder. They were the only guests. No friends considering how rich the family was. Her wedding was small with only a few family members present. Strange... really strange. 

This was the first time meeting the other members of the family since the old man has prohibited them from visiting his manor. It was only normal for Bai Jingye's mother not to attend when she was so against the marriage. She was an adoptive child of the old man… She could understand the reason why they were unfriendly. She was not a real member of their family. She had no work. No background that can benefit them. She was only a girl that had been spoiled by the old man.

The urge to back out from the wedding was strong. Her instincts were telling her that if she continued, she would regret it. It would be too late.

"Bai Mengxi, do you take Bai Jingye as your husband?"

She felt like a sheep, offered in a platter for the wolf to devour her.

'You can't marry him!' Her instincts shouted at her. 'You don't even love him!'

"I-I..." She stuttered. She turned her gaze at him but the moment her eyes landed on his brown orbs, she never felt so enchanted that she ended up blurting out, "I do..."

'Idiot! He may be hot and sexy but you don't love him! Take back your words!'

Something inside her felt so against her decision but despite the indifferent look in her groom's eyes, she couldn't help but be absorbed into it as if she was being pulled into a black hole.

'It's alright, we can learn to love each other later in our marriage.' She thought as a smile formed on her lips.

After the ceremony, no one congratulated them except for Bai Keran, "you are now officially part of the Bai family. Congratulations, dear child."

"Thank you, grandpa." She smiled sweetly at him and even gave him a hug. 

"Jingye, you better treat your wife well, okay?" The old man said after pulling away from the hug.

"Yes." It was a cold answer.

Mengmeng tried to suppress another smile when she heard his answer. She couldn't help but be filled with hope inside. Even if they didn't marry each other out of love, she was sure that they would learn to love each other in the future.

The bald man approached the old man and announced while holding a phone, "Mr. Bai, you have a call."

Bai Keran excused himself from the couple to answer the call.

Just like Bai Jingye, the others were indifferent to her, especially his father. He didn't hide his hostility against her. He left without even congratulating them. On the other hand, his elder brother was different.

"Welcome to the family, sister-in-law," Bai Zichen approached her with a big grin plastered on his lips. Like his brother, he was tall and has a nice build. His dyed blonde hair stood out in the room. His friendly features and his playful, yet charming smile made him look more approachable than his brother. 

"Thank you…" Mengmeng trailed off with a shy smile. He was such an eye-candy. If only her new husband was as welcoming as him.

Now that she thought of it, Bai Zichen's bright and kind personality resembled his grandfather. Bai Keran in his younger years should look like him since they look like each other so much.

"Congratulations, brother." He finally turned to look at his younger brother.

Bai Jingye's eyes narrowed as he glared at his brother which only made the other man smirked.

"This is why I told you to always be obedient and listen to the old fox from the start. Now look at what you have gotten yourself into. You ended up marrying a dumb bitch."

"W-what?" Mengmeng looked at him in shock and disbelief. Did she hear things right? Did he just call her 'dumb'? Did he just insult her?

Her brother-in-law turned to her and smiled sardonically. "I guess the only thing she has right now is a pretty face."

This man… he was not being friendly at all! And here she thought that he was different! She clenched her fists tightly as she tried her best to calm down. Don't punch him. He may be an ass but he was still her brother-in-law. It was her wedding day; she was not going to allow him to spoil her mood. Ignore him for now. Be patient.

Bai Zichen waited for her to erupt just so he could make matters worse for her but surprisingly, all he received was a glare. He scoffed, "looks like this whore is not that dumb at all but still looks brainless." He turned back to Bai Jingye and sadly said, "I feel sorry for you, brother. I wish you good luck in dealing with a ludicrous gold-digger."

A strange glint of light flashed in her eyes. The side of her lips curled up and a small laugh escaped her lips as she retorted, "you're as funny as a blind toddler in a shitty minefield, brother-in-law." 

She crossed her arms and smirked, her innocent face turning into something devious "If you're going to be a smartass, first you have to be smart, otherwise you're just an ass. Your anus must be jealous with the amount of shit that comes out of your mouth."
