Lu Chenyuan and Wen Yuwan's wedding was lavish, yet awkward. Even exchanging rings felt like signing a business contract.

He was decisive and ruthless, cold and abstinent, and kept his distance from women. She was gentle and perceptive, sweet and quiet, and never crossed a line.

They lived apart after the wedding and treated each other like ice. Everyone laughed that their marriage was all calculation, without a trace of genuine affection.

But no one saw that late at night,

he would tuck the blanket around her, silently smooth away every difficulty in her path, and hide the only exceptions he had ever made, his patience, and his burning possessiveness within his quiet protection of her.

Gradually, she glimpsed the sincerity beneath the icy surface. From polite distance to a racing heart, from wariness to attachment, she fell sweetly, step by step.

--

Until one night, he came home tipsy from a business dinner and found her fresh out of the bath.

His restraint shattered. He pinned her against the wall, dark desire surging in his eyes. His voice was low and hoarse: "Wen Yuwan, I gave you a chance to run away."

After that night, the abstinent facade was torn away for good. The cool, aloof mogul had gotten a taste and couldn't get enough. He clung to her day and night, pampering her from head to toe and making up for all the tenderness and passion he had withheld.

--

It began with an arranged marriage, grew through the details, and ended in obsessive love.

He shed his mantle of frost and gave her every ounce of his tenderness.

With a long lifetime ahead, he would sleep peacefully with Yuwan, his heart devoted to her alone.
