(Arranged Marriage to Love + Devoted Husband + CEO Romance + One-Couple Romance)
Lin Wan never imagined her life would cross paths with someone like Lu Chenzhou. She was an ordinary young woman overwhelmed by the troubles of her family’s textile mill, while he was the president of the Lu Group, standing at the very top of the wealth pyramid. Their worlds should have had nothing to do with each other, but a sudden business marriage bound them tightly together.
An accidental collision in a bar, a clash of wills in the conference room, undercurrents at a family dinner in the old house... From initial resistance and distance to the quickening pulse of tentative closeness, this marriage of convenience slowly veered off its planned course. He remembered that she loved sweet-and-sour pork ribs, quietly stepped in whenever she was in a bind, and used a teasing, tender charm to gradually chip away at her defenses. Beneath his cold exterior, she glimpsed a rare attentiveness and sincerity, and his quiet protection slowly softened the hedgehog-like prickles she kept raised.
The gentle sheen of a magnolia brooch, his silent vigil outside her hospital room late at night, an inadvertent brush of hands in the office, and all the tentative sparks of affection hidden in everyday moments... When a business-marriage contract meets genuine feelings that refuse to be controlled, this push-and-pull relationship will lead to an unexpected conclusion. It turns out the best kind of love needs no careful planning. All it takes is sharing each day, until little by little, they fall deeply and quietly in love.
