[Marriage First, Love Later + Slow-Burn Romance + A Chaste Man Falling Hard + The Powerful One Bows His Head + Both Leads Are Each Other's First] When her mother falls critically ill, Gu Niannian is forced to marry a powerful Beijing businessman who has no interest in women.
Ji Beichen tosses down a contract with a cold look: “Ten million yuan for a three-year marriage. Don't fall in love with me.”
Everyone thinks she's not good enough for Ji Beichen, but after a little ordinary time together, her husband is completely smitten!
On their first day living together, she nervously slips up: “Mr. Ji, how am I supposed to sleep you tonight?”
Her chaste husband is a master at holding back, taking a cold shower every time.
When Grandma pressures them to have a child, she shifts the blame: “Beichen doesn't want one.”
That night, he loses control and kisses her, demanding hoarsely, “You want a baby? We can start right now.”
“Tonight, let's fulfill our duties as husband and wife.”
“Last night I held back. How about we go again?”
Later, he upgrades the contract's payoff to a hundred million yuan, binding her heart with extravagant devotion and a possessiveness through the roof.
Before their three years are up, he kneels in the snow all night, his eyes red as he grips her shoulders. “Divorce? Don't even think about it. I burned the agreement.”
“You don't love me? That's fine. I love you enough for both of us.”
