"The head of the Shen family is impotent, especially in that department."
That's what everyone in the capital says.
Ji Manrao believed them, so she married him without a second thought.
She planned to use his money to keep a lover after the wedding. After all, he couldn't perform.
One night...
He pinned her to the bed, leaving her unable to move.
"I thought you couldn't perform?"
The man chuckled softly, his breath brushing her ear.
"The only illness I have is a stomach problem."
"It won't get in the way of your happiness for the rest of your life."
Only later did she learn that this man had been secretly in love with her for years.
"You are not allowed to stop liking me."
"It was fine when you didn't like me before. Now you can take your time and fall for me."
