[Secret Crush Comes True | Contract Marriage | Winning Her Back | Both Leads Are Each Other’s First and Only Love]
Guan He’an had someone she longed for but could never speak of, a profound secret she had kept buried in her heart for ten years.
She had never imagined that ten years later, she would reconnect with Tang Xiyu, let alone marry him.
Tang Xiyu was sick to death of his family nagging him to get married. Then a message arrived through an anonymous online tip line, saying someone had had a crush on him for ten years. Couldn’t they skip the secret-crush part?
The two hit it off and decided to pretend they were madly in love and getting married to appease their families.
Guan He’an tread carefully. Tang Xiyu must not discover her secret.
Tang Xiyu thought his newly acquainted future wife was strange. She seemed to have a lot of secrets. A man’s sixth sense told him those secrets had something to do with him.
Before the wedding, Guan He’an unexpectedly fell out of love, but chose to keep honoring their agreement.
Tang Xiyu, however, panicked.
How had his fiancée become his wife, only for them to start treating each other like polite strangers?
One day, Mr. Tang finally spoke up and dropped to one knee before Guan He’an.
“Wife, please don’t ignore me~”
When Guan He’an got married, her ex-boyfriend showed up to make a scene.
“Guan He’an, is he the one you long for but can’t speak of? You don’t know how to love!”
Tang Xiyu stepped in to defend his wife.
“What do you mean, someone you long for but can’t speak of? I’m someone she can long for and talk about! My wife knows how to love me!”

Content notes: Both leads have exes, but neither has been with anyone else. No replacement romance or angsty relationship tropes. Their exes are strictly in the past, and the leads are together with clean hearts and bodies. Happy ending. The male lead is a domineering CEO, but he’s a good person who respects women. He can be goofy at times and slow on the emotional uptake, but there is no forced-love plot.
(No spoilers, just my personal opinion) First of all, the male and female protagonists of this book are really vivid. I think a person's character is composed of his birth environment, growth environment, social environment, his own experiences, the experiences of friends and other people around him who are important to his life, and his own luck. The author writes very well in this regard! You can read it in the details. Secondly, the author's plot arrangement is also very good. Everything can be seen in the first dozen chapters, without leaving much foreshadowing, in my opinion anyway. The various turns are not abrupt at all, it seems to be the way it should be. In short, the characters are full-bodied. Finally, I have never written such a long review, and I don't know if what I said is correct. I just hope that people who read it can use it as a reference and don't pursue it too much. I am a glass-hearted person. If you think what I said is wrong, please stay in a happy mood. It is not worth it to be unhappy because of my few words. Ps: I wish everyone who reads this book will be happy every day, troubles will not come to you, and the person you have a crush on will one day become the person you spend your whole life with~
