[Marriage First, Love Later] [Marriage Alliance Between Wealthy Families] [No Actual Cuckolding] [Subverting the Usual Tropes] [Urban Romantic Comedy]
Shen Yan has acted in more than three hundred short dramas about cuckolded husbands.
He donated a kidney to his wife's beloved, got slapped by her male best friend, and nearly had his marriage certificate signed by her childhood sweetheart in his place.
In the industry, he's known as the go-to cuckold.
In real life, though, he's the second young master of the Shen family. Four years ago, his elder brother fled on the eve of his wedding, so Shen Yan was forced to take his place and marry Cheng Jianshu, the beautiful CEO of Cheng Group.
It was supposed to be a marriage alliance between wealthy families, but over four years, they had developed real feelings for each other.
Then Shen Yan noticed that the men around his wife seemed more and more like the second male leads from the dramas he'd acted in.
A young, capable male assistant, a childhood sweetheart suddenly back from abroad, a rumored first love, and an overly close male best friend...
Shen Yan knew this lineup all too well!
After all, he'd acted in more than three hundred cuckold dramas. What kind of scene hadn't he seen?
One late night, Shen Yan saw the male assistant bring his wife home with his own eyes.
Going by the familiar plot, the next step would be for the assistant to let himself into their home.
So Shen Yan decided to test the waters.
"It's so late. Why go home? We have a guest room. Stay here tonight."
The young, handsome male assistant looked at Shen Yan, then at the CEO. His expression gradually turned tragic.
"Mr. Shen."
"Isn't this a violation of labor law?"
