Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

"You hit River. You should apologize," Donovan said.

“Brother, I did apologize to him—sincerely—and I explained to everyone that it was a misunderstanding and my fault. I even put ice on his face. I did everything I should've. But you don't know how shameless he is. He just called me and asked me to buy him dinner! Said if I didn't, he'd go complain to Grandpa, claiming I took advantage of him and needed to take responsibility. He actually said my palm kissed his face, like being slapped was some kind of romantic gesture. Only River could twist things like that. I honestly admire how filthy his mouth is he can say anything.".

Hearing everything his sister said only confirmed Donovan's suspicion-River was definitely into her.

He echoed her frustration. "Then yeah, he's really shameless. Total scoundrel.". "But don't let him run to Grandpa.
