Marriage before love + a marriage between wealthy families + sweet, doting romance
In everyone’s eyes, Ming Xiao is a useless rich girl, while Song Nianhuai is a hedonistic playboy. They seem like a perfect match.
Too bad they once swore that whoever ended up with the other would be a dog.
The two of them together? Impossible. Absolutely impossible.
Then a marriage alliance ties them together.
The people of Mancheng discreetly try to find out how the two feel about it.
They simply turn away from each other and say they barely know each other.
To put Old Master Song at ease, they pretend to be the perfect couple.
Everyone thinks there’s no way this can work, and that the two of them are bound to get divorced.
Everyone waits and waits, until the couple has a child. Why haven’t they gotten divorced yet?
Then they see the way the two look at each other, eyes full of love, and suddenly realize the truth: oh no, they’ve been played for fools!
