Older-man healing romance | Mutual secret crush, both devoted | Marriage before love | Flirtatious, shameless scoundrel x playful, sweet girl
Duan E thought she would marry no one but Zhao Lingduo.
She also thought that only two people in love would ever get a marriage license.
Betrayed overnight by her first love, the man she’d always adored from afar, Duan E ended up in a loveless marriage.
She married Ke Yu, a powerful man ten years her senior, rotten to the core and already a seasoned old hand.
Three years into their marriage, nothing had changed. But before his young wife’s beloved first love could return to China, Ke Yu headed straight to Yanjing.
On the first night of his campaign to win her back, Ke Yu lied to get into his wife’s bed: “I’m getting old, and I’m too delicate to sleep on the sofa or the floor. I can only sleep in the bed.”
The next day, Ke Yu warned her that she’d missed her chance to leave. If she dared go off with her old flame now, an orthopedic surgeon would be very good at breaking someone’s legs.
When her first love finally appeared in the flesh, Duan E was thrown into turmoil.
The older man, Ke Yu, had the upper hand. He tangled with her in bed, clung to her outside it, and secretly crushed his rival with ruthless tactics.
“Wifey, you said you’d take responsibility for me back then. You can’t go back on that now. A secondhand man doesn’t exactly have great prospects.”
“I want to see love in your eyes. Now and always, I’ll wait for as long as it takes.”
Ke Yu gave her everything, letting her experience a deep and exclusive devotion.
The older man completely captured Duan E’s heart.
And so, her first love became just a passing figure in her life.
One morning, Duan E lay on top of him. “Ke Yu, I want us to have a child together.”
A wicked smile played across Ke Yu’s brows and eyes as he bent down and gently bit the hem of her dress...
