After Becoming a Powerful Man's Stand-In, I Became Her Beloved

The craziest thing Jiang Ning ever did was wear a wedding dress that wasn’t hers and marry Shen Ruowan, the woman feared throughout Jiangcheng. Everyone said she was insane: taking her sister’s place at the altar, walking into a tiger’s den, with nothing but a life worse than death ahead of her.

On their wedding night, Shen Ruowan barely glanced at her before saying, “Do whatever you think you should. Just don’t bother me.”

Jiang Ning thought so too. All she wanted was to keep her head down until her sister returned, then put everything back the way it was.

But she never imagined that

Shen Ruowan never asked where she went, yet would casually crush anyone who gave her a hard time;

Shen Ruowan wouldn’t eat the meals she cooked, yet would bring back the lunchbox she’d forgotten in the studio late at night;

Shen Ruowan said they didn’t need any feelings between them, yet one rainy night she showed up at Jiang Ning’s door, covered in wounds, and rasped, “I think… I have nowhere else to go.”

Jiang Ning didn’t know that this ruthless woman would abandon her entire plan for the sake of a single word from her;

Shen Ruowan didn’t know that her quiet, obedient “substitute wife” had already prepared every possible escape route for her in secret.

Later, everyone waited to see Jiang Ning thrown out.

Instead, they watched the usually stern President Shen kneel in front of half of Jiangcheng’s elite to put her fallen shoe back on.

“My wife,” Shen Ruowan said, lifting her gaze, undisguised possessiveness in her eyes. “Who gave you the nerve to bully her?”

I married you in someone else’s place, but gave you the rest of my life.
