Marriage first, love later + both leads' romantic histories are clean + slow-burn love + older hero + fake good girl + scheming CEO + mutual healing
Arranged marriages between prominent families are nothing new, but the union of the Shen family of Beicheng and the Xiang family of the southeast was enough to cause shockwaves in both military and political circles.
The heir to the Beicheng military compound gave up a military career for business and now commands a vast commercial empire.
The eldest daughter of a prominent political family in the southeast gave up politics to study medicine, becoming a brilliant new star in the medical field.
Their families considered them both unconventional. Their elders forced them into a matchmaking meeting and pushed them into what seemed like a match made in heaven.
Xiang Shuyi thought a career was more reliable than a man. This marriage of convenience would fulfill her family's wishes; she wouldn't get emotionally involved, and he didn't need to, either.
As it happened, Shen Siyuan thought the same. His wife was smart, independent, and not clingy. Most importantly, she didn't love him. She was tailor-made to meet his standards for a wife.
After they married, Xiang Shuyi didn't wait for him to eat or go to bed, didn't ask when he'd be home, never wore her wedding ring, and told people she was single. Aside from the necessary marital duties, they left each other alone.
Shen Siyuan attended the hospital's AI medical center as an investor. When the hospital director noticed the ring on his left ring finger, he asked cautiously, “Mr. Shen, are you married?”
He glanced calmly at Xiang Shuyi, who was giving the tour, and nodded with a faint smile. “I am. My wife works at this hospital, too.”
Xiang Shuyi's heart instantly began to race, and she looked away.
In a contest that seemed like a complete victory, Shen Siyuan was the first to become the loser.
By chance, he saw the diary Xiang Shuyi had kept hidden away.
There was a boy she'd liked since she was sixteen, still held in her heart to this day. The yellowed pages were filled with a young girl's feelings she couldn't bear to let go of.
He could no longer stand their courteous, distant marriage.
“Shushu, let Shen Siyuan love you from now on.”
