From universally disliked to the apple of everyone’s eye / From a chatterbox to everyone’s voice / A married couple in name only, but he’s absolutely smitten / Lighthearted everyday life
My husband is mute, but he’s a top-tier secret romantic. So much so that he secretly saves every note he writes me, and even sorts them by date.
I transmigrated into the villainess, and from the start the fake-sweet rival came at me with, “Sister-in-law, your big brother is mute. You must feel so hard-done-by, marrying into the Lu family, huh?”
I smiled and started recording. “Hard-done-by? Last night he hung his coat outside my door. If you round things up, that counts as showing me affection!”
It’s hilarious. I refuse to believe the script.
In the original story, I get kicked out in chapter 80 and disappear in chapter 100.
But it’s only been three months, and all the death-wish plotlines have yet to happen!
So I immediately drew up a “Survival Guide” (recommended reading: memorize the entire thing):
Don’t court disaster. Cling to the powerful. Build a career. Mute husband is great. Watch out for the fake-sweet rival.
And guess what?
The “cold and heartless” mute CEO’s behavior gradually got more and more ridiculous:
He left me a note: “It’ll rain tomorrow. Remember to bring an umbrella.” (Fine.)
He had his special assistant drive me to and from work every day. (Just the CEO doing his job.)
He came to pick me up late at night in the rain and draped his coat over my shoulders. (This isn’t how the script goes!)
Every time I posted on social media, he liked it right away! (Unbelievable.)
I wrote a confession on a note and slipped it under his door: “Lu Yan, I like you too.”
Then I hid in my room like a thief who’d done something wrong.
When I sneaked a peek in his desk drawer, the note had already been folded up and placed right on top.
He can’t speak, but he shows it through what he does.
He doesn’t say it with his mouth. He loves me with his whole life.
Would you want this kind of happiness? (I took it, anyway.)
What’s a true female-lead story? What’s the ultimate secret romantic? What’s a mute husband who’s completely smitten?
