What she thought was a forced marriage was actually his long-held secret love finally coming true!
The day the Su family went bankrupt, Su Guanqing was forced to marry Pei Jingchuan, the powerful head of the Pei family in the capital.
Everyone envied her for marrying into a wealthy family, but only she knew the truth: she had traded her freedom for her father’s medical bills.
On their wedding night, the man laid a strip of tape across the bedroom and said coldly, “We each get what we want, and we stay out of each other’s way.”
Su Guanqing breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was just a business arrangement.
But little by little, she realized something was off.
He remembered that she didn’t eat cilantro and that she only liked her milk tea at thirty percent sweetness.
The design sketches she had drawn in college were neatly stored in a locked drawer of his.

Her memories came crashing back!
The stranger she had rescued five years ago, covered in wounds, had been Pei Jingchuan all along!
“Su Guanqing,” the man said, holding her tightly from behind, his voice suppressed and trembling. “You think this marriage was forced? No… I waited five whole years for this day.”
She had thought she was marrying into an abyss.
She had no idea it was a gentle trap he had plotted for five years, planning every step to protect her for the rest of her life.
