My new work is here! You’re welcome to read it on Tomato Novel. I hope you enjoy it. Your support inspires me to write, and I’ll do my best to tell every story well!
This is the story of Su Yuhua, an ordinary designer, and Lu Jingchen, a business tycoon. They meet by chance on a rainy night, then come together through a contract. The exorbitant medical bills for her seriously ill mother leave Su Yuhua struggling to breathe. Lu Jingchen’s proposal of a “contract marriage” is a ray of hope wrapped in chains: he needs a wife in name to fend off his family’s pressure to marry, while she gains a chance to save her mother.
Their married life begins with distance, but their repeated encounters quietly change everything. He shields her from his family’s difficulties, offers her warmth when she is at her lowest, and breaks through the chill of their “contract” with his quiet protection. Beneath his hard exterior, she glimpses a tenderness and sense of responsibility he has never shown anyone else, and her feelings grow uncontrollably despite her efforts to hold them back. As family pressure and misunderstandings from the past pile up, the relationship that began as a transaction has already been steeped in genuine affection.
From a contract to deep devotion, from cautious testing to unwavering commitment, they navigate the cracks of reality and draw closer despite the gap between their worlds. In the end, they understand that the best love story is never a perfectly matched script. It is being willing to lay down your armor for each other when starlight falls into your arms, and letting an “accident” become the beginning of fate.
