[Pediatrician vs. composed, aloof CEO]
[The male lead has been plotting this for a long time; the story is told from the female lead's perspective, with love after marriage; one-on-one, both leads are inexperienced; a relationship-focused, everyday romance]
When she was eight, Nan Xi lost her father and was abandoned by her mother. Her childhood experiences left her with a timid, self-effacing nature.
An adopted daughter living under the roof of the Shen family, Nan Xi is cautious in everything she does and has long since learned to hide her emotions. Even when her adoptive parents pressure her to marry into the Ming family in her older sister's place after the sister runs away from her own wedding, she still chooses to give in.
But on the wedding day, the groom flees, and through a twist of fate, Nan Xi ends up marrying Ming Che, the head of the Ming family.
In Nan Xi's eyes, Ming Che is a cold-blooded capitalist, usually aloof, distant, and impossible to approach.
She assumes their marriage is nothing more than a family alliance, and that after the wedding they'll each live their own lives without interfering with each other.
But on their wedding night, the usually composed and restrained man kisses her as if he's lost control, then takes her through every aspect of married life. After they marry, he dotes on her in every possible way, down to the smallest detail.
Everyone says Ming Che married Nan Xi out of a sense of duty, that he had no choice. Nan Xi believes it too. Even as her initial attraction to Ming Che grows into deep love, she doesn't dare reveal her feelings to him.
Later, she urges Ming Che to sign the divorce papers. With a lazy, faint smile, he pins her against the sofa and kisses her fiercely.
"Silly girl, marrying you was never a spur-of-the-moment decision."
"…"
Later still, Ming Che holds her in his arms and coaxes her, his eyes brimming with undisguised affection. "Baby, be good. You're the only one I love!"
How should I put it? Generally speaking, I just don't talk long, and misunderstandings are reflected one after another. I didn't make it clear until the end, which made me a little anxious. Overall it's good and worth watching.
A very good book with rich content. The male and female protagonists are in pure love. It is worth reading.
