[Marriage before love + devoted 1v1 couple + tease and run + seduction]
A cool-on-the-outside, warm-on-the-inside CEO vs. a dazzling, flirtatious beauty
(The plot is relatively laid-back. Skip this if that’s not your thing.)
Everyone says Shen Yanfei, head of the Shen family, is aloof and austere, and widely known in high society for having no interest in women.
That is, until a business marriage brings him a wife: Xu Qingmo, rumored to be gentle and obedient.
On their wedding night, one look at the woman before him is enough to break Shen Yanfei’s composure.
He forces himself to keep a cold expression and sees the night through, silently reminding himself: This is only a marriage alliance. He mustn’t fall for her or let her get the better of him.
Later, his group of playboy friends are all stunned:
“Bro, weren’t you against marriage alliances? Why do you come home on time every day?”
“Weren’t you not interested in women? Why do your ears turn red when your sister-in-law touches you?”
Xu Qingmo focuses on her career, planning to ask for a divorce once the company gets back on its feet.
But when she slaps the divorce papers onto the table, the man pulls her fiercely into his arms, his voice hoarse and tight.
“Xu Qingmo, what do you take me for?”
