It Was a Loveless Business Marriage, So Why Does This Feel Wrong?

When her parents pressured her to marry, Li Xia carefully chose a husband for a marriage of convenience: rich, easygoing, and never home.

What was more, he had drawn up a prenuptial agreement with her in advance: no interfering in each other’s lives, put on an act together, and catch no feelings.

Li Xia thought it over and was more than satisfied, so they got married at lightning speed.

Nearly every wealthy family in North City thought she’d hit the jackpot, and waited to laugh when she got kicked out.

Even Li Xia herself thought the marriage was only a stopgap, and that it would end sooner or later.

Lately, though, she had started to think her contract husband was acting stranger and stranger.

“Can you keep that guy from putting his hand on your shoulder?”

Li Xia: “???”

Are you okay, man? Weren’t we supposed to stay out of each other’s lives in this marriage of convenience?

Hey, hey, hey! Don’t suck on my lips!

Weren’t we supposed to catch no feelings?!

In the end, clutching her aching waist and wiping away tears, Li Xia realized that from the very beginning, she had fallen into someone’s trap: a marriage contract on the surface, a scheme to win her over underneath.

When he saw his plan had been exposed, he merely smiled and nipped her ear. “I don’t care. You can’t seduce me and then abandon me. You have to take responsibility for me.”
