Marriage First, Love Later / Reunion After Years Apart / Sweet, Slow-Burn Romance / The Husband's Road to Redemption
Steadfast, Pretends to Be Good × Arrogant Young Master Who Says Whatever He Wants
While boarding with the Xu family in high school,
Jin Zhiyuan developed lustful thoughts about the Xu family's eldest daughter.
A slender waist, long fair legs, haughty eyes,
and a gaze fixed on him, full of malice and contempt.
He became addicted to being watched by her.
What a thrill. She'd better stay on her high horse forever.

Five years later, he returned to the country.
She had become a fallen fake heiress,
yet at a drinking party, she put on an innocent, sweet act
and kissed his cousin.
-
So Xu Youning eloped with Jin Zhiyuan, the boy who used to be like a brother to her.
He was the heir to one of Jiang City's most powerful families: noble and haughty, cold-hearted and ruthless, decisive and merciless.
She knew perfectly well he was humiliating her in revenge and only wanted her body.
Everyone thought so, even he did.
After they married, he gave her a taste of her own medicine.
He teased and flirted with her, addicted to seeing the eldest young lady blush with anger.
He sternly rejected her advances, saying she was far too cheap.
Xu Youning believed him and stayed prepared for the worst.
Until the night they were supposed to divorce, when Xu Youning got drunk and, as she surrendered to Jin Zhiyuan, called out the name of the man she had always loved.
A storm swept through his eyes as he gripped her waist tightly.
He lost control,
yet his words were utterly humble, just like back in high school.
"Baby, don't love him anymore, okay?"
"Baby, look at me, okay?"
He thought he'd get tired of her sooner or later.
But loving her was addictive, and he couldn't quit.
