A deadpan, wooden elevator attendant with a subdued air x a CEO who is cold on the outside, warm on the inside, and hopelessly romantic
[One-night stand + both are chaste + marriage before love + five-year age gap, with him older + slow burn + bittersweet romance + light healing]
Xue Li’s stagnant life takes its biggest turn.
The bad news: she’s forced into a one-night stand.
The good news: her one-night stand is a handsome, well-built CEO, so she didn’t exactly get the short end of the stick.
The crazy news: the CEO’s mother wants her to marry him.
For the sake of her bedridden grandmother, Xue Li agrees to the marriage.
Her new husband is called Wen Mian, a man known in their circles for being decisive, taciturn, and... ascetic.
Xue Li assumes their night together was a fluke, and that she and Wen Mian will be nothing more than a couple married on orders, together in name only.
But on the very first night they live together, Wen Mian has her sign an asset transfer agreement, voluntarily putting half his personal wealth in her name.
After that, he takes care of her in every way, attentive to even the smallest details...
-
After learning that he had slept with Xue Li, Wen Mian thinks it through and decides to take responsibility by marrying her.
Whether out of pity or guilt, Wen Mian believes they have never been equals.
Until Xue Li begins to draw close to him, and Wen Mian finds himself developing feelings for his wife.
He falls for her.
Wen Mian is confident he has plenty of time to make Xue Li fall in love with him.
But one day, while he and Xue Li are “living apart,” a friend sends him a photo.
In it, Xue Li stares intently at the family planning products by the checkout counter, apparently about to buy some.
In an instant, the thread of reason in Wen Mian’s mind snaps...
P.S. The powerful one falls first
