We’re Only Contract Lovers, So Why Are Things Getting Out of Hand?!

“The third rule: no falling in love. Whoever breaks it takes responsibility.”

Liu Xinyi thought it was the perfect arrangement:

Sign a one-year contract with Ye Hanzhou to fend off pressure to get married, and stay out of each other’s business.

The terms were clear, the responsibilities defined, and the penalty for breaking the contract was five million.

But she had no idea

He had already changed the third rule to “No falling in love with anyone else.”

He had already been saving her photos for three years.

He had already been waiting for her to walk, step by step, into the trap he had laid.

On the day the contract expired, she held out the agreement. “Mr. Ye, it’s been a pleasure working with you.”

He tore it up and dropped to one knee.

“Liu Xinyi, the contract may be void, but my love for you will never expire.”

Later, the whole internet was asking:

How did that cool, ascetic business tycoon turn into such a clingy husband?

Ye Hanzhou put an arm around his wife during an interview, grinning without a care.

“We were only a contract couple. Who knew things would get out of hand?”
