A Marriage Between Elite Families: The Fake Heiress and the Real Young Master Play Hardball

Engagement first, love later / Knew each other as children but weren’t close / Love grows over time / Both are each other’s first and only / One-on-one romance

Clear-headed beauty X Jealous, hopeless romantic

Lin Wumiao thought that once her identity as the fake heiress was exposed, the marriage pact formed for mutual benefit would fall apart too. Her fiancé, a childhood friend she barely knew, would call off the engagement without hesitation, and they would go their separate ways.

But he didn’t.

After figuring out why his fiancée had suddenly grown distant, Gu Lingche said, “I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

And so, she went from having a fiancé to having a husband.

(A slice-of-life romance, calm and sweet, with no thrills, no face-slapping, and no breakups.)
