People Say President Lu Is Fierce, but Every Night He Climbs Into Bed Begging for Affection

[Marriage First, Love Later + Slow-Burn Sweet Romance + Mutual Firsts + Doting Love + Everyday Life + Secret Crush Comes True] An accident upended Shen Qingyan’s orderly life. Her biological parents became her adoptive parents, and she found herself with a marriage partner, too. Rumor had it her new fiancé was the illegitimate son of a century-old family, a man who frequented nightclubs abroad and changed partners every week. Deep in debt, he’d been forced to return home and marry. More importantly, he had a beloved woman he could never have. But none of that mattered to Shen Qingyan. All she wanted was an excuse to escape the Shen family. Only after the wedding did she discover that this supposed playboy drank goji berry tea and was so old-fashioned he followed rules more strictly than a senior citizen. People in their circle said Lu Yancheng was cold and harsh, and that being with someone as unromantic as Shen Qingyan was like living in a refrigerator: dull and stifling. But only Shen Qingyan knew how happy she was with their marriage. In the first year of their marriage, Shen Qingyan got hurt. Lu Yancheng canceled a meeting and rushed home, holding her hand in both of his. “Does it hurt?” “The doctor said it’ll be fine if I just bandage it.” The next moment, the man threw himself into her arms, looking aggrieved. Lu Yancheng said, “Can’t you be a little more affectionate with me?” In the spring of their second year of marriage, Shen Qingyan discovered that the old-fashioned Lu Yancheng had covered a secret little room with photos of someone. The pictures spanned infancy, toddlerhood, elementary school, and middle school, with a long red thread running through an entire life. At the end was a wedding photo. Only later did she learn that he did have a beloved woman, but… One day, someone saw Lu Yancheng cooking in the kitchen in an apron, holding a book titled How to Be a More Romantic Man. The photo was secretly taken and shared. Overnight, it went viral across everyone’s social media feeds.
