(One-on-one younger man/older woman romance, contract marriage, sweet romance.)
With just twenty days left until her wedding, Gu Qingyu turns around and gets involved with a sweet, innocent college boy.
As her fiancé, Lu Jingchi, checks up on her over video, the young man grins and tickles the sole of her foot, his lips pressed to her ear as he teases, “Why are you trembling, sis?”
No one knows that, after seven years of deafness, the first words she hears upon regaining her hearing are: “That deaf woman? Send her to a psychiatric hospital and kill her. Then the estate will be ours.”
Seven years of devotion were all a lie.
Her fiancé is cuddling someone else on her wedding bed, plotting to steal her entire fortune and have her killed.
She doesn't cry or make a scene. She hears every word of their scheme.
Everyone laughs as they watch the scumbag send her into another man's bed, not knowing she picked that man herself.
From then on, when she fights, he hands her a knife.
When she gets into trouble, he cleans up after her.
When she makes a run for it, he helps her escape.
She tears down the scumbag, tramples the other woman, and takes back everything she deserves.
Just when everything is going her way, Gu Qingyu suddenly discovers an astonishing secret.
The sweet, obedient puppy who acts so mild-mannered in front of her is actually a sinister, unhinged power player with far-reaching influence in the capital.
His fingerprints are all over everything that happened before.
By the time she tries to run, it's already too late.
Eyes red, he traps her in his arms. “Sis, being my wife is fun. I can play whatever kind of man you like.”
It was a joy to watch, very sweet, and I felt the sweetness of falling in love. The male protagonist's waiting was touching. He pretended to be a little puppy and looked so cute. I was attracted to it without realizing it. I'm giving it five stars now and will review it later. It's to my liking.
