[Marriage First, Love Later] [Fake and Real Heiresses] [Mutual Firsts] [Older Man] [Slow-Burn Romance] [Well-Behaved Heroine] [Sharp-Tongued, Narcissistic Hero]
There is no rivalry between the two heiresses. This is especially worth emphasizing.
When the Zhou and Shen families prepare to join their families through marriage, they discover a case of mistaken identity involving a "real and fake heiress."
To set things right, Xu Zhiyao is brought back to the Shen family and marries a man she has never met.
Xu Zhiyao once asked around about her unfamiliar "husband." They say he's unruly and ruthless, while she, Xu Zhiyao, has always been a well-behaved girl. The two of them seem completely unsuited to a lasting marriage.
Xu Zhiyao once mustered the courage to hope he would reject the marriage, but to her surprise, Zhou Xubai agrees.
After the wedding, nobody believes the marriage will work. Some even bet on when they'll divorce. No one expects to hear that the two have become inseparable.
In the third year of their marriage, they have a little "love child" of their own. The man who once dominated the business world diligently studies child-rearing, changes diapers and makes baby food himself, happily becoming a doting dad.
(There will be more updates, and I won't abandon this story. I've been struggling with anxiety for personal reasons lately, so I'll take a short break and come back.)
