Introduction
On the day Liang Zhixu and Zhou Jiming got married, everyone thought it was a very honorable marriage.
She thought so too.
Zhou Jiming is calm, restrained, and has a strong sense of boundaries, and can even make a list of things to do when living together; Liang Zhixu is sober, sharp, and doesn't like to be arranged. The most annoying thing is that people write her as "Mrs. Zhou."
One treats marriage as a system, while the other wants to change every aspect of the system into a living person's life.
At first, she just wanted to keep her name, projects and space; he just wanted to deal with all risks in advance and make the marriage stable enough.
Later she discovered that Zhou Jiming was not unresponsive, nor was he unable to love.
He was just too good at being patient, too good at retreating, and too afraid that his approach would turn into a disturbance.
Until one day, Liang Zhixu asked him: "In what capacity do you come to pick me up?"
Zhou Jiming didn't talk about her husband again.
He said, "Whoever wants to pick you up."
From now on, a contract is no longer just a contract.
They began to get closer, test each other seriously, and turn a marriage into a true love under the same roof.
