Sweet Words

Cool on the outside, warm on the inside sharpshooter VS scheming, self-restrained alpha male

{Marriage first, love later + Falling in love over time + Love and hate}

At just 22 years old, Lin Jianyi was forced by her father, Lin Baishan, to register her marriage to Lu Chengze, who was six years older than her, under threat of his death.

Lin Jianyi thought there couldn’t be many couples in the world who registered their marriage in the morning, met each other’s parents at noon, and moved in together that same afternoon! It was nothing more than a marriage arranged by their parents. Once they were married, they could each mind their own business.

On their first night living together, Lin Jianyi said, “Tomorrow, we’ll get divorced, then swear brotherhood. You’ll be the big brother and I’ll be the second brother.”

But Mr. Lu didn’t seem to see it that way.

He bought her delicious food, gave her flowers for the holidays, drove her to and from work, and surprised her from time to time.

Whenever she was in danger, he was always the first to arrive. He risked his life to save her without a second thought.

It took a few things happening before Lin Jianyi understood how she felt. Nestled in someone’s arms, she said, “If I’d known you loved me so much, I would’ve let you throw a grand wedding and marry me openly, so the whole world would know that you, Lu Chengze, belong only to me.”

The man reached out and tapped her nose, the corner of his mouth curling up. “It’s not too late to know now. Then let me marry you properly all over again, this time with you willingly saying yes. I, Lu Chengze, belong only to you, and you can only be mine.”

P.S. The heroine has a tragic backstory; the male lead spoils his wife.
