After her family goes bankrupt, Su Wanxing is forced to marry in place of her sister, wedding Lu Chenyen, the famously cold, abstinent, and heartless “devil” of the business world.
On their wedding night, the icy tycoon coldly lays down the terms: “This is a marriage of convenience. We each get what we want. Don’t fall for me.”
Su Wanxing obediently nods, inwardly ecstatic: [Perfect! No dating required. I’ll stick it out for the agreed term, then make a run for it. My plan is to slack off and make money!]
Unexpectedly, Lu Chenyen awakens a special mind-reading ability, and he alone can hear all her thoughts.
The city’s most powerful and feared man falls for her completely.
She complains that he’s aloof and stiff, so he quietly smooths away his rough edges and becomes awkwardly gentle.
She plans to save up and run away, so he secretly locks down her whole future and showers her with all his affection.
She acts sweet, sensible, and obedient, while he listens to the unfiltered thoughts in her head and furiously convinces himself he’s falling for her.
Everyone says President Lu is cold and heartless. Only Su Wanxing knows that this abstinent tycoon has secretly fallen madly in love with her and pampers her without restraint.
[Mutual healing + marriage before love + abstinent tycoon who talks himself into falling for her + sweet romance with no angst + heroine’s rise]
