He Thought I Was Scheming, Then Became So Obsessed He Forced Me to Marry Him

【Clear-eyed, practical gold digger × scheming, arrogant, sharp-tongued man】 【Devoted to each other + possessive love + intense push and pull + groveling for her + happy ending】 Wen Ci is the daughter of the county magistrate of Jiangzhou. Her aunt is the second wife of the eldest branch of the Duke of the State's household. After her parents die, she makes inquiries and begs her aunt to take her in at the duke's residence. All she wants is a peaceful marriage away from the world. When she arrives in the capital, the first time she meets Lu Hemian, the duke's eldest son, he takes an immediate dislike to her. That very day, he ruins the first marriage match she had worked so hard to secure. Fine. She can't afford to provoke him, but she can stay out of his way. He puts an end to her second marriage prospect, too. With no other choice, she moves out. Then he destroys her third marriage prospect. All he says is, “Quit your tricks for attaching yourself to the powerful! Someone like you doesn't deserve a peaceful life.” - Later, the man breaks his pride and kneels before her, his eyes red and wet. He says, “A Ci, how do I fall short of everyone else? Am I really that bad? Why can't you ever see me?” Wen Ci tilts her head and smiles. “How could I not see you? After all, haven't I been making good use of Governor Lu's immense power?”
