[Reunion After Years Apart x Marriage First, Love Later x Mutual Secret Crush]
Ruthless attack dog x gentle, obedient girl
“Be good and do as you’re told” has been Wen Rao’s most important rule for survival for twenty-six years.
Then everything changed. On impulse, she signed a two-year marriage contract with the man she had secretly loved.
The good news: Her husband is handsome, rich, and faithful.

“Didn’t you used to like me?”
“Could you fall for me again?”
