After the Marriage Swap, Master Fu Bows to His Wife

(Secret crush + working in government + an older powerful man bending for love + secret love rising to the top + a new husband + a gentle, slow-burn sweet romance)

Song Li is the only daughter of the Song family’s second branch. Her parents were killed by the first branch, and on the night before her engagement, she was told that her fiancé, Fu Yelan, had been stolen away by her cousin. The head of the Song family then arranged for her to marry Fu Yanting, the Fu family’s devout Buddhist heir.

With her parents gone and her fiancé taken, Song Li was told she would be engaged in three days.

Her new fiancé, Fu Yanting, is the head of the Fu family in the imperial capital. They are nine years apart. He is ruthless and meticulous, and is known as Lord Fu, the living King of Hell.

Everyone in their circle says Lord Fu is an illegitimate son of the Fu family, a demon who clawed his way out of hell.

Nobody in their circle approves of the marriage, and Song Shan is eager to see Song Li suffer after the wedding.

But Lord Fu’s engagement banquet is held on a grand scale in both the imperial capital and Jiangcheng, and he protects Song Li at every turn, bending to his wife.

After the wedding, the Song family comes to tell Song Li she is not the second branch’s daughter, but a fake heiress brought in from outside.

Fu Yanting says bluntly, “Since the Song family has no place for her, she is no daughter of the Songs. She is the mistress of the Fu household.”

“Just listen to Lord Fu!”

The master bedroom at Lan Garden is awash in red. The newlyweds raise their cups and gaze at each other.

“Let us drink from the nuptial cups and remain of one heart forever. May we grow old together, blessed with prosperity and good fortune.” Fu Yanting’s low voice rang out. “Youning, I love you for you alone, and for nothing else.”

“You would bend for me, and I would give my heart to you.” Song Li smiled at him.
