[Marriage First, Love Later + Powerful Man Bows His Head + Second Male Lead’s Regret + Sweet 1v1]
Shen Suining is the real daughter who was brought back to the Shen family, yet she receives not a scrap of affection.
Her biological parents favor their fake daughter. They despise her for growing up in Jiangcheng and being blind, and even want to marry her off to an older man in exchange for a business deal. For the sake of her seriously ill grandfather, Shen Suining agrees to a marriage alliance, but through a twist of fate, she ends up marrying Fu Shichen, the cold and abstinent head of the Fu family.
Fu Shichen is the head of one of the capital’s most prominent families: stern and ascetic.
He marries her only to appease his elders and find himself a sweet, obedient Mrs. Fu.
He thinks they’re simply getting what they each want from this marriage.
But after they marry, things grow increasingly out of control.
If she so much as bumps herself, his heart aches for her.
She’s too well-behaved and quiet, never clinging to him or making a fuss. Instead of being pleased, he starts wanting more.
They agreed not to interfere in each other’s lives, yet little by little, he dotes on her until she’s in his arms, cherished so deeply that no one else can touch her.
Later, the truth about her mistaking the wrong man for her fiancé comes to light, and everyone waits to see Shen Suining get cast aside.
But the man who has always stood above others, aloof and impersonal, is now lowering his head, breaking his rules, and losing control for her for the first time.
Fu Shichen pulls her into his arms and says in a husky voice, “Ningning, you’re the one who mistook someone else for me, and you’re the one who made the first move.”
“Trying to run now? Too late.”
