A Marriage of Convenience? Mr. Xie Begs for Love

Bright, clear-headed, and straightforward heroine × gentle, devoted hero with perfect gentlemanly manners Both sexually inexperienced; a warm and sweet slice-of-life romance after marriage The hero gets a vasectomy at the start; the heroine will not get pregnant or have children. When her family business falls into financial crisis, Fu Jiyang marries Xie Yunchuan right after graduating from college in exchange for financial assistance that she will not have to repay. Who is Xie Yunchuan? The head of one of the most powerful families in the capital. Rumor has it he is ruthless, having watched coldly as his own father was gravely injured before seizing power for himself. A fearless young woman, Fu Jiyang not only demands money but brazenly insists that he come and go at her bidding. She even demands to be the one in control of their married life. She thinks these almost humiliating demands will make him fly into a rage. Instead, Xie Yunchuan simply smiles gently and agrees to every one of them. Fu Jiyang: “So there’s no way I can back out of this marriage?” After the wedding, she prepares for a polite, distant marriage. But why is he nothing like she expected? What happened to the cold-hearted man from the rumors? He is careful every time he holds her hand, asks her permission before every hug, and “May I kiss you?” is practically his catchphrase. Fu Jiyang starts to resent how excessively he cherishes and respects her. She wants to get closer to him, until nothing stands between them. At last, Fu Jiyang realizes, a little belatedly, that this marriage was never a simple exchange of interests. It is clearly his gentle assault on her heart, all to make her fall for him.
