Setting Rules on the Wedding Night? The Arrogant Young Master Is Being Treated Like Royalty

This is a story with a strong female lead: marriage first, love later + bickering couple + tearing down a scheming woman + younger, devoted boyfriend + sweet romance + a spectacular change of heart. The heroine, Bai Yun, is calm and rational, three years older than him, and a frosty queen of the business world whom everyone fears. The hero, Qin Chixiao, is a spoiled, rebellious, impossibly handsome rich heir who hates arranged marriages. On their wedding night, he laid down his rules: he was a neat freak, they’d sleep in separate rooms and eat separately, and neither could touch the other’s belongings. She also had to respect him, never force him, and treat him well. She asked, “Is this what marriage is? Are you sure you’re my husband and not some household guardian spirit?” “You can think of me as your household guardian spirit, too.” And so he really did become one: tied up on an altar with three sticks of incense burning in front of him. Then her world collapsed, and everyone urged him to cut ties with her to protect himself. But he made a decision no one saw coming: The person who had once been most desperate to escape became the only one who refused to leave.
