Chapter 2: A Marriage Without Warmth
The mansion felt colder after the wedding.
Mr. Shing did not look at Shi Shi even once.
To him, she was just a responsibility forced upon him — nothing more.
"Your room is on the east side," he said coldly.
"Do not interfere in my life."
Shi Shi nodded obediently.
"Yes, husband."
Her voice was soft. Too soft.
His family watched everything with sharp eyes.
"Acting innocent already," one of them scoffed.
"Adopted girls always know how to pretend."
Shi Shi lowered her head, hiding her expression.
Inside, she smiled.
That night, Shi Shi stood alone in her room.
The sweet girl mask slowly fell away.
She took out a small device and activated it.
"Report," she said calmly.
A voice answered immediately, full of respect.
"The east docks are secured. All enemies eliminated."
Shi Shi's eyes were cold and emotionless.
"Good," she replied. "Continue monitoring Mr. Shing's movements."
She looked toward the dark window.
"So this is my husband," she whispered.
"A king made of ice."
In another part of the mansion, Mr. Shing stood silently, holding a glass of wine.
Something about her disturbed him.
She was too calm.
Too obedient.
And in his world…
calm people were the most dangerous.
