Synopsis

The proud, unruly heir to a wealthy family x the guarded, clear-headed beauty on a high peak [Both are each other's first and only + The favored child of heaven bows to love x The master strategist is shaken by love + Possessiveness x Controlling nature]

Yun Cen and Pei Ji were widely regarded in Beijing's elite circles as a beauty on a high peak paired with the moon in the sky. A few people also warned Pei Ji, "Your wife is ruthless. For the sake of profit, she drove a knife into her own siblings."

Pei Ji looked at the ring on his left hand and wore an utterly smitten expression. "My wife was the one who proposed to me."

Everyone: "..."

Before the wedding, he thought theirs was a romantic love story. Love had come from nowhere, then run deep. They would live happily together forever.

Then one day, he suddenly realized that she had weighed him on a scale and chosen him as an ally. There wasn't a trace of genuine affection.

"I'm your husband. It's only natural for you to use me. I'll give you everything you want. But why, why did you have to deceive my feelings? Why don't you trust me?"

"Stop making a scene. I've never done anything to wrong you. Why put on the airs of a victim and make coming home feel so suffocating?"

Again and again, he tested her, trying to find some trace of love in her. All he got in return was her cold indifference. She had never cared about him or felt sorry for his tears.

Proud as he was, after being hurt, he chose to make a graceful exit. But his wife wouldn't let him go, not out of love, but because of their shared interests.

They suspected, doubted, and tested each other, sometimes trying to win one another back without realizing it, only to hurt each other's feelings again.

In the end, they discovered that neither could live without the other.

I know you don't mean what you say, but I willingly let you keep me under your thumb.

Modern romance, with an unconventional plot and a sweet tone (a little angst is fine). No one being reborn, and preferably no mistresses or unattainable dream girls. Most importantly, it has to be complete 😂

I can’t find any fresh, gripping books. I picked out a few at random, but the plots were either cliché or made me feel frustrated!! So annoying. Please recommend something fresh, everyone. No silly, naive female leads or stories that are frustrating to read. Get those out of here~ No entertainment-industry stories.

Recommend Some Good Books with Basic Common Sense

No school or academy settings, school beauties, goddesses, empresses, harems, male-male pairings, saintly heroines, teams where one person drags along several deadweights, or characters who act less than human and look for someone to own them.
