Everyone in the top circles of the capital knew that the youngest colonel of the Lu family was married to a small florist and was not from the right family. Everyone said that Lin You was a high achiever.
No one knew that she married into the Lu family just to escape.
The family of origin is a quagmire that is destructive—parents who favor sons over daughters, always demanding more than they can satisfy, and using her as a bargaining chip to tie her up. She needs a marriage certificate as a talisman, and a backer that the Lin family will never dare to reach out to again. The second elder of the Lu family called her, and she nodded.
Lu Zheng, the youngest unconventional colonel in the military, is unruly and taciturn and has no expectations for marriage. Marriage is just to fulfill the wishes of grandparents. Before the marriage, the two had zero interaction and had not even seen each other a few times.
The days after marriage are extremely absurd - they are strangers during the day, and they quarrel whenever they meet; they sleep in the same bed every night, and their bodies fit together perfectly, and they continue to draw boundaries after dawn. Acting as a loving couple to the outside world, but not familiar with each other behind closed doors.
A match made in heaven that everyone admires, but each takes what he wants.
But he gradually discovered that this cheerful and gentle woman had a loneliness that no one had ever seen hidden in her eyes. He was heartbroken by his family, but he still worked hard to maintain a bright world. And for the first time, she saw that Colonel Lu, who was respected by everyone outside, could cook wontons in the middle of the night, could be jealous and refused to acknowledge him, and could use clumsy and extreme gentleness to pull her out of old wounds bit by bit.
From a contracted couple to someone who has to be you.
Everyone in Beijing knew that Colonel Lu was ruthless in his killing spree, but no one knew that his ears were red in private and he was awkwardly trying to coax his wife.
——The whole world thought she had surpassed the Lu family. Only Lu Zheng knew how lucky he was to have her.
