[Marriage First, Love Later] [Older, Powerful Man] [He Chases Her After Losing Her] [Mutual First Love] [Happy Ending]

On the day they registered their marriage, his special assistant asked, "How should we handle Miss Jiang?"

Fu Yanshen glanced sideways at him, his tone cool and indifferent. "There's no need. She gets the money, I get what I need. We each get what we want."

Jiang Ning needed money to save her adoptive mother's life. Fu Yanshen needed a wife to appease his family.

One agreement, one-year term.

Until one night, he pinned her against the headboard, his breath alarmingly hot. "Jiang Ning, you're my wife. Isn't it only natural that I react to you?"

Jiang Ning hurriedly reminded him, "B-boss... this is fake. We're just pretending!"

Don't get too caught up in your role.

Fu Yanshen lowered his gaze, studying her flushed brows and eyes. His nose nearly touched hers, and his voice turned seductive. "Then, deep down, do you really want this to be fake?"

She kept appearing at Fu Yanshen's side.

Everyone in high society thought this woman was just a prop in his little charade.

They waited to see the arrogant young girl get kicked to the curb.

Instead, the man who held the lifeblood of Beijing's economy repeatedly broke his own rules for her, lowered himself for her, and held her in the palm of his hand.

Just as everyone thought Jiang Ning had gotten lucky and married into a wealthy family, she discovered that calculation lay beneath his increasingly tender affection.

She was nothing more than a pawn on his chessboard, one he could discard at any moment.

Jiang Ning looked at the signed agreement in her hand and smiled.

The next day, she moved out of Jingyuan.
