Synopsis: [Sweet romance + marriage first, love later + both leads sexually inexperienced + face-slapping the scumbags + a poker-faced, secretly flirtatious CEO with a thousand schemes + fake substitute + second male lead’s long road to winning her back]
Her father forces her to marry a lecherous old man for his own gain, then leaves her waiting at the altar on her wedding day.
With gritted teeth, Xia Qinmo climbs onto Matchmaker Wang’s platform and finds herself a partner at the last minute.
They both get what they want. It’s a win-win.
She thinks they’re just business partners, but why does her temporary husband keep doing things with her that only people madly in love would do?
Li Chuanyuan says with a serious expression, “I always strive to be the best at everything I do. Even if this is a contract marriage, I’m going to be the best husband.”
Xia Qinmo: “…”
“But you don’t have to sneak kisses at me in the middle of the night to be a good husband, do you?”
Li Chuanyuan doesn’t bat an eye. “I was sleepwalking.” His bright red ears are hidden beneath his fringe.
Xia Qinmo: “…”
“Mr. Li, our contract is up.” Xia Qinmo lets out a breath.
Li Chuanyuan replies matter-of-factly, “Now that the contract is over, we’re a real married couple. Let’s consummate the marriage tonight.”
As he speaks, he pulls her into his arms.
Xia Qinmo: “…”
One day, Xia Qinmo is told that she and Li Chuanyuan are not a suitable match.
“You’re the heir to the most powerful family in the capital?”
Li Chuanyuan puts on a serious face. “I’m just an employee. I’ve already transferred all my shares to you. Don’t look down on me.”
The big bad wolf successfully lures the little white rabbit home.
It's so beautiful, but what I don't understand is that the real heroine is replaced by that scumbag?
