[Marriage First, Love Later + The Powerful One Bows His Head + Second Male Lead’s Groveling Redemption + Both Leads Are Inexperienced]
On her wedding day, her fiancé publicly asked to postpone the ceremony so he could take his first love to the hospital.
Su Qingyuan agreed in the moment, then canceled the wedding as soon as he was gone.
That night, a powerful man from the capital’s elite circles came looking for her.
“My name is Gu Siyan.”
“Would you consider marrying me?”
Before they registered their marriage, Gu Siyan calmly drafted a prenuptial agreement:
No feelings.
No interfering in each other’s affairs.
No physical contact.
After the wedding, Su Qingyuan joined Chengyao Group as Gu Siyan’s secretary.
Aside from essential work handovers, they left each other alone.
She was happy with their peaceful life.
Until one day, during a meeting, he pulled her into his office in front of the entire company.
When the door closed, he looked down at her, eyes red. “You haven’t looked me in the eye for three days.”
She slapped the prenuptial agreement onto the desk.
He dropped to one knee, looked up at her, and spoke in a voice so hoarse it was barely recognizable:
“I admit it. I wasn’t in my right mind back then.”
“Could you… look at me?”
Later, her ex-boyfriend came to the company asking to get back together.
Gu Siyan merely said, “He’s just someone passing through.”
But that night, he held her down and kept her busy until dawn.
In the early morning light, he wrapped his arms around her from behind and nuzzled the back of her neck, his voice hoarse. “Wife, was I good?”
Exhausted, she closed her eyes. “Stop nuzzling me. Are you a dog?”
He went quiet for two seconds.
“Woof.”
“Mm. I’m your dog.”
At first, Gu Siyan married Su Qingyuan because she was sensible and well-behaved, and could help him deal with his family.
Later, he began hoping she would lean on him when trouble arose, hoping her gaze would linger on him, hoping… that she would make room for him in her heart.
He was the first to fall in love in this marriage, and in the end, he was the one who lost completely.
