Love Hidden in Candy Wrappers: Mr. Lu's Scars and Tenderness

[A CEO who seems cold but is secretly covered in scars × a warm, healing heroine who has been hurt by love]

Lu Hanzhou, twenty-five, is a stern young CEO. No one knows that beneath his perfect exterior lie scars left by years of domestic abuse and a severe stomach condition. Su Nuan, twenty-two, has just been betrayed by her first love. Heartbroken, she enters an arranged marriage. On their wedding night, he hands her a contract. “Three years. We won’t interfere in each other’s lives.”

Then, one rainy night, she sees him curled up on the sofa with stomach pain and hears him murmur in a daze, “That candy... is it still there...?”

In his study, she finds an iron box. Inside lies the strawberry candy wrapper she casually gave him nine years ago.

It turns out that the man who gave her the coldest contract had already spent the longest time secretly loving her, waiting for her for a full nine years.
