At thirty, after seven years struggling to make it in Shanghai, Lin Wei has no home, no car, and no savings.
She thought her life had already hit rock bottom: rent was skyrocketing, performance bonuses had been canceled, layoffs were imminent, and her mother called eight times a day to nag her about getting married.
She opened Jiayuan on a whim, only meaning to browse, but was matched with someone who should never have appeared there.
Gu Shen, president of the Shengheng Group. An annual income of over ten million, a home and a car in Shanghai, and unmarried.
He was the icy man she had only ever dared to look at from afar at company parties.
“I need a wife, and you need an opportunity. A one-year contract marriage. We each get what we need.”
Faced with this ridiculous proposal, Lin Wei should have refused. But she couldn’t think of anything else she had to lose.
So she said yes.
Reader advisory: A contract marriage at first, a heartbreaking turning point in the middle, then a groveling husband and the sweetest romance imaginable. Happy ending. Have tissues and insulin ready.
The writing is very good and worth reading!
