Yun Yanli had the desire to own her body; he wanted to make sure that this woman belonged to him. He brought the wedding dress with him because he thought that Gu Xijiu would resist him. If she really did, he could use her resistance as an excuse for him to get physical. To his dismay, Gu Xijiu did not even try to resist. He wanted her to change her attire, and she did.
Things did not happen the way he had expected, so he was quite disappointed. With a tight smile, he said, "You are unusually obedient today." Her compliance had taken away his sole excuse to rip off the façade of mutual respect between them.
Gu Xijiu was caught in a daze while staring blankly at the wedding dress. The wedding dress looked familiar to her; it was as if she had worn it before a long, long time ago. She turned to him for assurance, "Do I look good in this wedding dress?"
Astonished, he added with a firm nod, "Yes, you look good."
