[Clear-headed heroine + chaste, aloof male lead + both leads' first love + heroine pursues him at first + male lead fiercely spoils her later]
To repay her adoptive parents for raising her, Ning Qin is forced to accept an arranged engagement, only to discover that her fiance is involved with her college roommate.
The first time, hoping to end the engagement, she gets drunk and sleeps with the aloof legal-world heartthrob.
The second time, her fiance's family mocks her as a useless pretty face, so she decisively takes a job at a famous law firm. He turns out to be her boss.
The third time, she is the fake heiress, married off in someone else's place to the man rumored to have a physical disability.
She woos him step by step, and before she knows it, she has become the apple of his eye.
Later, she sneaks away.
He corners her against the wall, wearing a refined, wicked smile. “You use me and then run off? Hmm?”
When they meet again, he kisses her forehead and murmurs tenderly, “Stop pretending. You can't get away from me.”
Later still, he rescues her from danger, then collapses in a pool of blood, gravely wounded. His voice is humble, his heart aching. “Could you please stop leaving me behind?”
One day, he holds her close. “Baby, will you spoil me tonight?”
[From the heroine's perspective, a secret crush comes true; from the hero's perspective, it's love after marriage. They heal each other.]
