After Marrying the CEO, I Can Hear His Thoughts

[Marriage Before Love + Mind Reading + Adorably Contrasting CEO + Everyday Urban Life]

To save her family's business, Su Nian marries He Yan, the “crippled” CEO mocked by the entire internet.

He is gloomy, taciturn, and moody. On their wedding night, he gives her just one sentence: “This is a marriage of convenience. We each get what we need.”

Perfect. That suits her just fine.

Until her best friend gives Su Nian a “mind-reading bracelet”...

The moment she puts it on, she hears the cold-faced man screaming inside his head:

[She's only thirty centimeters away from me! Should I move a little farther away? No, then it'll look like I care. But if I don't move, will she hear my heart pounding?!]

Su Nian holds her glass of water with a blank expression, holding back laughter so hard it nearly hurts.

Later, at a board meeting, He Yan says coldly, “Su Nian is only my wife in name.”

But inside, his thoughts are racing by like comments on a livestream:

[I picked out the dress she's wearing today! Doesn't she look great? Hurry up and compliment her! Why aren't any of you complimenting her?!]

Later still, Su Nian becomes an overnight sensation and the founder of a traditional Chinese-style brand.

At the celebration banquet, a reporter asks, “Mr. He, your wife is so impressive. Do you feel pressured?”

He Yan answers expressionlessly, “Yes.”

In his head:

[What pressure?! The more impressive she is, the prouder I am! That's my wife! He Yan's wife! Everyone, applaud!]

Su Nian lowers her head and takes a sip of champagne, thinking:

Mr. He, has anyone ever told you...

The comments in your head are so loud they're blocking my vision.
