A helpless marriage made Shen Nian and Lu Shichen the most familiar strangers.
On the first day after receiving the certificate, the man handed over a house key: "Your room is on the left hand side of the second floor. I live on the third floor. We don't disturb each other."
Shen Nian nodded, feeling that this marriage was stable - she didn't have to deal with her husband, and she could escape her parents who were urging her to get married. It was a perfect deal.
But she gradually realized that something was wrong with this cold man.
She worked overtime and came home late, and there was a warm late-night snack in the kitchen.
She casually said that the air conditioner was a bit cold, and the room temperature automatically increased by two degrees the next day.
She was being made difficult by her relatives in public. He put down the tea cup slowly and said: "My people, it is not the turn of outsiders to talk."
Shen Nian told herself: This is a contract marriage, don't think too much about it.
Until one day, Lu Shichen hugged her gently from behind and said in a low voice:
"Nian Nian, the contract is about to expire... Do you want to renew it for life?"
