A powerful, tragic business tycoon × a designer who’s sweet but not too sweet
【Marriage first, love later + healing each other + a long-planned romance】
“Three million and a job. You want my whole life in exchange, Mr. Xu. Isn’t that unfair?”
“I’m a businessman. I believe only in the rules of the poker table.”
“Clearly, if I hadn’t gone easy on you, Miss Chen, your chips wouldn’t even make it onto my table. The terms I’ve offered are more than fair.”
That was how Chen Yutian thought their first meeting had gone.
Decisive, ruthless, cold-blooded, and without desire or affection: that was Xu Wenduo’s nature, making him the perfect husband.
But she never imagined that five months into their marriage, her husband in name only, whom she’d never even met face-to-face despite sharing a home, would lounge on the sofa in his CEO’s office and start exercising his “right to get jealous.”
“I hear Mrs. Xu turned down two more admirers at work this week?”
“Next time you turn someone down, Mrs. Xu, I hope you’ll use a different reason.”
“For example, you could just show them the wedding ring on your left ring finger.”
And that wasn’t all.
After catching Chen Yutian discussing his good looks with a colleague, he shamelessly tempted her. “Mrs. Xu, whether a man with a waist made for the bedroom looks sexy gripping the sheets is something you’ll have to experience for yourself.”

One day, after the two of them have a falling-out, Chen Yutian gets drunk and cries that Xu Wenduo’s marriage agreement with her is anything but innocent.
The usually dignified, composed, and cold-hearted tycoon pulls her into his arms, kissing the beauty mark on her nose again and again as he apologizes over and over.
“Mrs. Xu, I admit my intentions toward you were never pure...”
“When you were twelve, you traded a lollipop with me for the knife in my hand...”
As it turns out, what I thought was our first meeting was actually a reunion after a long separation.
The plot doesn't drag on, and the male and female leads are both very good! ! Why does it look so good without any book reviews?
