Sui Shubing x Jiang Zhuoxue
A seemingly gloomy, cold, and composed top who actually loves playing the victim to win his wife’s sympathy x a seemingly gentle but strong-willed bottom who is really a flirtatious type with a short fuse
Jiang Zhuoxue is an S-class omega, the kind of child other parents envy. He gets excellent grades, comes from a good family, and has a gentle, radiant appearance. At just twenty-two, he took over the Jiang Group. He is a true child of heaven.
Yet this much-admired man married the Sui family’s real young master, who had only been found two years ago.
The Sui and Jiang families may be evenly matched, but the real young master grew up in the slums, has a strange and gloomy personality, and is not favored by the Sui family.
News of their marriage broke a year later. It hit like a drop of water falling into hot oil, and the whole internet exploded.
At the center of the storm, Jiang Zhuoxue stood in a hospital room, staring at the alpha in front of him, whose head had been empty ever since he got his marriage license more than a year ago. Jiang Zhuoxue was about to explode, too.
That’s right! His husband by arrangement, Sui Shubing, had lost his memory in a car accident!
That wasn’t the point. The point was, why was this stern-looking alpha calling him “wife” right off the bat?! What was this, imprinting on the first person he saw?!
Jiang Zhuoxue screamed inwardly, but kept his expression composed. He lowered his head, gave a deathly smile, and asked mildly, “What did you say?”
Sui Shubing kept his face icy and repeated those two words without hesitation.
Wife my ass! Aren’t I your love rival?!
Then Uncle Chen, sent by Sui Shubing’s grandfather to spy on their relationship, brought even bigger news: Sui Shubing had an unstable pheromone disorder!
Others might not know, but Jiang Zhuoxue knew all too well that his pheromone compatibility with Sui Shubing was 94.8 percent!
As Sui Shubing’s partner in name, Jiang Zhuoxue had no choice but to take responsibility for treating his pheromone disorder.
But what was going on? Wasn’t he supposed to be aloof? Who was this alpha looking at him so pitifully and begging him for pheromones?! And who was this alpha gripping him by the throat and kissing him fiercely during rut, stealing his pheromones?!
Jiang Zhuoxue: Aren’t we supposed to be love rivals?! (Horrified)
Jiang Zhuoxue: What are you doing?!
Sui Shubing was faking his amnesia. He had fooled everyone, all to claim the person he had coveted for so long.
He used his amnesia and pheromone disorder as an excuse to stay by the other man’s side, draw close to him, and try to make him stay.
He pretended to feel unwell so the other man would pay attention to him and feel sorry for him. He wanted him to forget that so-called unrequited love.
Then, on the day that old flame returned from abroad, he saw Jiang Zhuoxue dressed to the nines and heading without hesitation to the welcome-home party. His gaze turned dark, and he headed for the bathroom.
Ice floated in the bathtub. Sui Shubing endured the cold, restless and anxious.
He succeeded in giving himself a fever.
When Jiang Zhuoxue hurried back and stayed by his side, Sui Shubing, burning with fever, clung tightly to his waist, seeming utterly vulnerable.
There was no scent of another man.
In a corner no one could see, he hid the jealousy and hurt in his eyes and played the victim to perfection.
What’s a little scheming, if that’s what it takes to get a wife?
