[Marriage First, Love Later + A Slow-Burning Sweet Romance + One-on-One, Both Chaste (The Hero Has Secretly Loved the Heroine for Years, Long Before She Knew)]
“Whenever you appear, cloudy skies turn clear.”
“You softly light up the inside of my heart.”
After an accident, Lin Mo unexpectedly found herself clutching a marriage certificate.
Her spouse turned out to be Ji Yanli, her best friend’s famously formidable older brother.
Ever since middle school, Lin Mo had been wary of the eldest son of the Ji family.
Everyone said he was the Ji family’s decisive heir, a man who could command the business world with a flick of his hand: cold, aloof, and not to be approached by strangers.
But their marriage contract bound the two of them together, and the man she saw was nothing like the rumors.
He was willing to cook for her, and whenever she turned around, there was always a cup of warm red date water waiting for her.
His quiet tenderness seeped into every corner of her life, drawing her in step by step until she was hooked.
Lin Mo had always thought his thoughtful kindness came only from the responsibilities of marriage.
Only later did she realize that every coincidence and every tender gesture had been part of his long-laid plans.
Through all those long years when no one knew, he had quietly loved her for so long.
