A Marriage Plot Gone Wrong: Mr. Pei, You’ve Fallen for Me

[Marriage first, love later + powerful man humbling himself for love + devoted to each other + taking down scumbags]

[A beautiful, scheming woman seeking revenge x a powerful wealthy man who's cold on the outside and warm within]

For revenge, Ji Ran set her sights on Pei Yanzhi, the newly appointed head of the Pei family of Yungang.

Rumor had it he was cold and ruthless, and impossible to get close to.

Ji Ran planned carefully and maneuvered step by step until Pei Yanzhi finally took the initiative to ask her to marry him.

-

After the wedding, Ji Ran played the role of Mrs. Pei obediently and slowly worked her way into Pei Yanzhi's heart.

Just when she thought she had succeeded, she heard the man say coldly:

“Ji Ran, don't fall in love with me. I only see you as Mrs. Pei, nothing more.”

Ji Ran smiled and nodded, hiding the calculations in her eyes.

-

But later, when the truth behind her revenge came to light, Ji Ran handed him the divorce papers. He, who had always kept his emotions off his face, lost his composure:

“I won't agree. Since you were the one who approached me in the first place, you should be prepared to keep doing it for the rest of your life.”

Ji Ran was determined not to turn back.

With reddened eyes, Pei Yanzhi pinned her against the wall, his voice hoarse and trembling:

“Use me? Fine. Lie to me? That's fine too. But could you please not leave?”
