    You thought your marriage was a mutually beneficial arrangement, but he threw you into chaos with a gentle kiss. Pei Huaijin's kiss was completely different from what Shen Qingyu had imagined. There was no eager plunder, no domineering possession, only slow and gentle tenderness, as if confirming something, or as if giving her room to back out at any time. Yet his restraint was more captivating than any forceful approach. Shen Qingyu closed her eyes, her heart pounding deafeningly. She could clearly feel every inch of the texture on his lips, as gentle as rain falling on a feather, yet each drop pounding into her softest heart. It turns out that the ultimate sweetness is having the power to conquer, but patiently waiting for you to reach out. A powerful figure in Beijing's elite circles × a daughter of a prominent family. When you think marriage is just an exchange of interests, someone has already secretly loved you for many years. This is not an agreement, but a long-planned deep affection; watch how the iceberg melts into tenderness for one person.
