[Marriage first, love later + long-planned romance + unwavering devotion + faithful to one another + no saintly heroine]
After catching her fiancé fooling around with her stepsister, Song Xichen storms into a nightclub in a fit of pique to find a male escort.
After one night together, she wakes up beside the scumbag’s cold and ruthless half-brother, a man who shares their father.
“You think you can run after sleeping with me? You’re a heartless woman. You’ll take responsibility.”
Song Xichen throws caution to the wind. “Show up at my engagement banquet and steal me away, and I’ll say yes!”
She meant it as a joke, but he really does storm through the entire banquet and whisk her away to get married.
In public, he’s an icy, decisive CEO. After marriage, he spoils her to no end.
He takes down the scumbags, stands up for her, and gives her all his devotion.
Only after a misunderstanding is cleared up does Song Xichen realize that this outrageous whirlwind marriage was the result of his long-planned love for her.
