Marriage first, love later: building wealth together while the rugged commander spoils her rotten!
After waking up in the 1970s as the daughter of a capitalist family with a bad background, Su Wenxi has nowhere to turn. With only a marriage contract in hand, she seeks out her fiancé, a man she's never met: Lu Lin, the toughest man in the military district.
Before the wedding, he lays it out with a cold expression: “I'm marrying you out of a sense of duty. Don't expect love, but I won't mistreat you.”
Su Wenxi nods obediently, her eyes gleaming with thoughts of making money. “Don't worry. It's a marriage of convenience. We'll stay out of each other's way.”
But after they marry
When her legs go numb and she stumbles, he instinctively catches her. His palm is scorching, but he stubbornly says, “The road's slippery. Be careful.”
When people point at her and curse her as a “capitalist's daughter,” he corners them against a wall, his gaze cold as ice. “Say that again. I dare you.”
She casually mentions that she's cold at night. The next day, a brand-new, thick quilt is spread over the kang, and the military coat he brought over in the middle of the night is draped over her.
Everyone is stunned. Is this what staying out of each other's way looks like?
Lu Lin scoffs and pulls Su Wenxi into his arms. “She's my wife. I can spoil her all I want. What's it to you?”
Su Wenxi holds her aching waist and sighs. “Commander, what happened to our agreement? You're breaking the rules!”
[Later]
The stern commander who once said, “Don't expect love,” corners her against a wall, his voice hoarse. “The agreement is void. I want you for the rest of my life.”
(The third chapter already plants the seeds of romance. His body falls for her before he realizes it when he catches her by the waist. A super-sweet story of a rugged man winning his wife over!)
