[Devoted couple + marriage first, love later + sweet everyday romance + aloof hero falls at first sight for a sweet, obedient heroine]
After three years of an arranged marriage, Zuo Mucheng was informed by her wealthy husband, Lin Xici, whom she'd never met, that he wanted a divorce.
On the day they were supposed to handle the paperwork, he stood her up, so she angrily filed a lawsuit.
While the divorce proceedings were underway, she developed a secret crush on one of her male patients.
He was mysterious, refined, and rich, an unreachable flower atop a high peak.
After several twists and turns, the divorce date was finally set, but then she was asked why she wanted a divorce.
Zuo Mucheng laughed in anger.
“Our marriage was arranged. We have no feelings for each other and no married life, and we both agree to divorce.”
To ensure the divorce went smoothly, she deliberately brought up her crush and embellished the story, praising him to the skies:
“But it's different with him. We're perfectly suited to each other. Not only are we madly in love, we're a perfect match in bed, and we can go all night.”
As a result, that very night, her crush pinned her down and made up for their missed wedding night.
“Again.”

Lin Xici never imagined he would fall head over heels in love.
At thirty, he couldn't stop thinking about that sweet, obedient girl with the bright smile.
He couldn't help missing her.
But he never dreamed that she was the wife he was about to divorce in their arranged marriage.
He would win her heart.
Then keep her tangled up with him night after night.
And have children with her, growing old together.
