[Sensitive, prickly beauty who owns a bookstore × handsome, domineering CEO who loves her deeply but keeps it hidden]
Marriage first, love later × Mutual pining × Childhood sweethearts × A long road to winning her back
No one knows that Zhou Hanzhang loves Cheng Guanyu. Not even Cheng Guanyu herself.
That’s because she once overheard Zhou’s mother tell him, “If you want to inherit the company, you have to marry Cheng Guanyu.”
Later, he inherited his mother’s business and married her.
They both knew it was a transaction: she saved her grandfather’s bookstore, and he gained the right to inherit his mother’s company.
Cheng Guanyu thought that since they were childhood sweethearts, she could find a way to make him fall in love with her once they were married.
But she never expected Zhou Hanzhang, who had always kept people at a distance, to shield another woman in his arms in front of the media...
Zhou Hanzhang had a secret.
Every step in his life plan was about Cheng Guanyu.
Everyone thought Zhou Hanzhang had married Cheng Guanyu to inherit his mother’s company. Only he knew he had given up on his own dreams and chosen to take over the company so he could marry Cheng Guanyu.
Even though he had once heard Cheng Guanyu say with his own ears, “I will never love Zhou Hanzhang.”
But it didn’t matter. They still got married.
Even if their marriage was a transaction, he accepted it.
But he never expected that one day, the gentle, obedient girl would fight back.
“Zhou Hanzhang, let’s get divorced. This transaction should be over.”
“You think I married you to get the right to inherit the company?”
The woman gave a mocking smile. “Then it couldn’t possibly be because you love me, could it?”
