[Contract marriage / marriage first, love later + groveling after a breakup + 1v1 + both leads are sexually pure]
[False gentleman, true scoundrel: gifted violinist and wealthy heir vs. hot-tempered but soft-hearted heiress and art collector]
The final encore of Zheng Yuqiu’s world tour ends, and the reporters’ camera flashes backstage nearly blow the roof off. Facing the youngest genius violinist in history, one reporter can barely contain their excitement. “Mr. Zheng, congratulations on being named the nation’s highest-earning young artist for three years in a row!”
The man toys with a violin bow worth tens of millions, his tone gentle yet nonchalant. “There must be a mistake in the statistics.”
As the reporters exchange bewildered looks, he suddenly chuckles. “My wife is far wealthier than I am. Strictly speaking, she’s the one keeping me.”
Yu Yun has always believed that her marriage to Zheng Yuqiu is nothing more than a transaction in which each gets what they need. It is a contract she signed when she had nowhere else to turn, cold terms negotiated at a business table, and has absolutely nothing to do with love.
Yet everyone says Zheng Yuqiu loves her more than life itself, treasures her above all else, and was willing to become the “other man” just to marry her. He spoils her without restraint.
Yu Yun finds it absurd. She has appraised countless priceless antiques, yet she can’t see through the man beside her, who plays the Moonlight Sonata onstage by day and whispers dirty talk in her ear at night.
Only when she slaps divorce papers down in front of him does the man, who never touches alcohol, come stumbling in reeking of booze. Eyes red, he pulls her into his arms and holds her tight. “Yunyun… Stay. Be my one and only treasured possession, all right?”
I’ll give you everything I have, if you’ll be the one and only exclusive treasure of my life.
