[Five-year age difference + the male protagonist's relationship heats up very quickly + HE]
-Gentle and cool young man + well-behaved, tough and good girl-
In the fifth year since she became the adopted daughter of the Xu family, Xu Jingran has always been well-behaved, sensible, and by the rules. The only time she went out of line was when she married Shen Cong, a young upstart from Pingcheng who was about to return to China.
The Shen family in Pingcheng is prominent. The current leader, Shen Cong, treats others with gentleness and calmness, but a pair of gold-rimmed glasses covers the ruthlessness and coldness in his eyes.
When I met Xu Jingran for the first time, she was wearing a fresh and elegant aqua blue cheongsam, standing by the pool watching the fish, like a picture of beauty.
He was curious about her for no reason, but it was just curiosity.
A crystal chandelier with a full sense of design hung down, and the light and shadow of the lamp reflected on Xu Jingran's face.
Shen Cong walked to the leather sofa and sat down, pointing to the seat opposite: "Sit down, Miss Xu. We need to talk."
He deliberately emphasized the word "Ms. Xu" as if to remind them of the clear boundaries between them.
Xu Jingran sat down as instructed, placing his hands on his knees in an upright manner, like a student preparing for an interview.
"Before we officially start living together, there are some rules that need to be clarified."
Shen Cong got straight to the point without any unnecessary pleasantries, "Our marriage is essentially a cooperation, I think you know it very well."
Xu Jingran nodded: "I understand, Mr. Shen."
But later, a marriage contract bound their hearts, but they didn't expect that in the following days and nights, she would also live in his eyes.
