[Showbiz Dating Reality Show] [Second Male Lead Takes the Lead] [Marriage First, Love Later] [Devoted to Each Other, Sweet Romance] [Long-Standing Secret Crush Comes True]
(An affectionate, scheming wife-doting fanatic x a cool, dazzling heiress)
Marriage first, love later from the heroine's perspective; a carefully planned, long-standing crush from the hero's perspective.
Everyone in the capital knew that Su Zhixia was Gu Xichen's little shadow. She had followed him around for six years.
Gu Xichen enjoyed how obedient Su Zhixia was. He told everyone she would never leave him, yet never made her a single promise, letting others criticize her as they pleased.
After their engagement was called off, everyone waited to see Su Zhixia become a laughingstock.
But Su Zhixia decisively walked away and married Gu Xichen's uncle, Gu Jinghuai.
Gu Jinghuai was the heir to the Gu family of the capital and its head, a man with immense power and ruthless methods. Born at the very top of the world of wealth and prestige, he was an untouchable flower on a high peak in everyone's eyes, untouched by worldly dust.
People outside the family speculated endlessly about their marriage, and rumors flew. Even Su Zhixia thought Gu Jinghuai had married her only because of who she was, so she behaved herself after the wedding.
The next time the two appeared together was on a dating reality show.
The cold, heartless Gu Jinghuai of the rumors transformed into a devoted husband. His attentive care for Su Zhixia put all the rumors to rest.
On the show, the director noticed the plain ring on Gu Jinghuai's hand and asked where it came from.
Gu Jinghuai was silent for a long time, then looked at Su Zhixia, sitting beside him.
"This is the betrothal gift from the person I love. It seems she forgot, though..."
Everyone thought Gu Jinghuai had married her on a whim because she was beautiful. Only he knew this had been a plan long in the making, after a time of utter chaos...
