[Fire department captain] VS [high school Chinese teacher]

The year Jiang Li turned twenty-five, her parents tricked her into a whirlwind marriage.

Before meeting him, Jiang Li scoffed at the way her parents praised him to the skies. Then they met, and she realized they hadn't exaggerated.

The man was tall and broad-shouldered, with finely sculpted features and an extraordinary presence.

Even his name was nice.

Her best friend said, “Tall men usually aren't any good.”

Jiang Li couldn't help thinking of the man's wrists, veined and strong.

Her best friend added, “Firefighters all have bad backs. He definitely won't have the stamina.”

Jiang Li couldn't help remembering him stepping out of the shower, his sharply defined abs on full display.

Whether he was any good was something she'd have to find out for herself.

Then she spotted the aphrodisiacs in his pocket...

Lin Yuqing thought their marriage should be one of mutual respect, with neither crossing the other's boundaries.

When Jiang Li came home late after drinking, he went to bed at ten and let her do as she pleased.

He didn't care that Jiang Li had an ex. They were just muddling through life together, after all.

But when Jiang Li went traveling with a group of men and women, he started to worry.

Later, Lin Yuqing waited by the door every day, calling her:

“Wife, are you coming home? It's nine thirty.”

“Wife, I shouldn't have been so rough last night...”

Jiang Li was mortified. How could this man possibly be bad in bed? His stamina was insane.

Then she saw her ex-boyfriend had messaged her again. Her husband looked red-eyed and wounded as he said:

“Don't even think about divorcing me.”

“Even if I die, you'll have to stay a widow.”

Jiang Li:

“...”

Straight men sure have a unique way of confessing.

P.S. The heroine dated her ex-boyfriend for one month. The most they did was kiss on the cheek.
