Super-sweet military romance / Fake marriage, real love / Gentle, resilient little white flower x fierce borderland wolf / Age gap / Size difference
*
Shortly before graduating from the police academy, twenty-two-year-old Shu Jiayu traveled a thousand miles from Beicheng to Jinban.
Jinban, on the border.
It was a place where all kinds of factions held sway and every sort of person mingled. The line between day and darkness blurred like the thick fog of the rainy season.
Late at night, in an abandoned factory.
In the shadows, a tall man leaned against the wall, his eyes lowered, idly twirling an unlit cigarette between his long fingers.
Dark light fell across him from the side, carving his face into sharp contrasts of light and shadow. His brow ridge was defined, his nose straight, his jawline chiseled and hard.
Even in his most relaxed pose, he exuded an overwhelming pressure, both rakish and menacing.
Like a blade that had been sharpened and seen its share of blood.
Their eyes met, and the man's gaze pinned Shu Jiayu in place. Her breath caught.
His cold, impassive eyes swept over her from head to toe, appraising her without a trace of emotion, as though checking a serial number.
After a moment, the man spoke. "Shu Jiayu?"
She straightened her back. "...Yes."
"Hello, I'm Chen Wenzhou." He walked a few steps closer and said calmly, "It's nice to meet you."
Shu Jiayu's heart pounded wildly.
She'd heard the name Chen Wenzhou before.
The leader of the national security special police unit, the pillar holding up the entire system, the highest-ranking commander of this operation, and her direct superior.
And, at the same time...
The husband assigned to her by the organization.
Her fake husband during her undercover mission on the border.

When Chen Wenzhou first met Shu Jiayu, he frowned.
The mission was grueling, with a slim chance of survival and an extremely high level of danger. Why had his superiors assigned him a quiet, pretty young woman?
When Shu Jiayu first met Chen Wenzhou, she clenched the hem of her clothes.
She was supposed to spend every day with a man like him, pretending to be his closest companion. Just thinking about it made her knees go weak with nerves.
Later, after living together for several months,
Shu Jiayu often found her cheeks flushed, her eyes glistening, and her legs strangely unsteady.
And Chen Wenzhou finally understood what it meant for love to sink into one's bones, to consume you through life and death, until you could no longer turn back.
