Synopsis

Forced by her adoptive parents, Xia Yutong takes the place of her arrogant, overbearing stepsister and marries Lu Yunfei, a notorious playboy caught up in one scandal after another.

But the wedding takes a shocking turn.

The man who comes to escort her home is not the playboy Lu Yunfei, but Lu Yanci, the feared devil of the business world.

He runs the vast Lu business empire, wields enormous power, and is ruthless in his methods. He is aloof, chaste, and indifferent to women.

On their wedding night, Lu Yanci forces Xia Yutong to sign a two-year marriage contract.

At first, Lu Yanci is cold and distant, always making a point of keeping Xia Yutong at arm’s length.

They sleep in separate beds for a long time. One day, Xia Yutong is sleeping on a floor mattress when she suffers terribly from menstrual cramps. Lu Yanci personally makes her brown sugar and ginger tea, carries her to bed, and takes care of her. Scolding her, he says, “You stubborn little thing. You’re drenched in sweat from the pain and still trying to tough it out. If you’re not feeling well, what do you think I’m going to do to you?”

The cold emperor who once went out of his way to keep her at a distance gradually lets down his guard and begins to spoil his substitute bride without restraint.

The One and Only 9.9-Rated Masterpiece

Looking for books like The End of Ten Days. It's the only 9.9-rated novel on Tomato, so its quality speaks for itself 😏. Even though it's a male-oriented novel, it really doesn't feel like one, and it's totally fine for women to read. I've already gotten several people in my class hooked on it.
