[True Marriage Before Love | Sweet Romance | Eight-Year Age Gap | Marriage Between Powerful Families | The Powerful Man Bows His Head]
Bratty, capricious little princess & old-fashioned, scheming older man
Ye Wan is the youngest daughter in her family. Spoiled by her parents since childhood, she has never known hardship. The only hardship she has faced is being forced into an arranged marriage with Fu Wenzhou, a man she doesn't love.
He's famous in Beijing for being distant and refined, uninterested in women, and so dull and old-fashioned he seems like a robot who can't understand romance, let alone show affection.
*
After they marry, she does everything she can to make trouble, hoping he'll give up and divorce her as soon as possible. But Fu Wenzhou remains unmoved, indulging her at every turn.
Even in bed, he lets her take the lead, his desire tantalizingly restrained, always calm and collected.
*
Then one day, after an argument, she leaves home and gets drunk at a bar.
As soon as Fu Wenzhou hears the news, he goes to the bar himself to retrieve her. Seeing Ye Wan drunk out of her mind, he carries her home in his arms like a princess.
That night, by the floor-to-ceiling window,
Fu Wenzhou presses against her from behind, kissing her back again and again as he murmurs in her ear, "Wanwan, are you going to abandon me and run away again?"
Ye Wan spends the entire night consumed by desire, exhausted and pleading for mercy. "I won't do it again."
"Fu Wenzhou, you're such a bully! You only know how to pick on me!"
The man chuckles, his face full of affection. "Would you like to try something even more outrageous?"
