Ning He transmigrates into the role of the fussy male spouse of a domineering protagonist.
In the story, the male spouse can't stand his husband's coldness. When he runs away, he tears up the domineering protagonist's most important contract and is eventually dumped in the countryside to fend for himself.
The domineering protagonist then uses his intelligence and skill to resolve the contract crisis, rises to become the youngest rising star in the business world, and makes a fortune.
In short, the male spouse is nothing more than a tool to move the plot along.
System: Your task is simple. Play the part of the fussy male spouse. Once the story ends, I'll give you back your pair of perfect 20/20 eyes.
Ning He springs to his feet: OK, sure! Leave it to me!
After the wedding, Ning He works diligently at his role.
During the day, while the domineering protagonist goes to work, he stays home listening to melodramatic rich-family CEO romance stories and mastering the art of playing a delicate, fussy little white flower.
At night, before the domineering protagonist gets home, he puts in eye drops. Eyes red and face anguished, he climbs onto the bay window. "You don't love me at all. Let me go!"
After three months of dedicated acting, Ning He finally drives the domineering protagonist to the end of his patience. Gripping Ning He's chin, he says coldly, "What are you making a fuss about?"
It's here! Tonight, right now!
Ning He's dark eyes don't quite focus. His lower lashes tremble with tears as he grabs the contract beside him with pinpoint accuracy and tears it to shreds with a loud rip.
The contract hits the floor. The domineering protagonist's aura turns icy as he grabs Ning He's wrist and suddenly scoops him up.
Oh, oh, throw me out and my mission will be complete! Ning He sheds excited noodles-for-tears in his heart.
But the next second, he is slammed down, onto the bed.
"If you're done making a fuss, go to sleep." The domineering protagonist snorts, tucks him under the covers like a spring roll, and lies down beside him.
Ning He: ?
Pei Yan, a rising star in A City and head of a corporate group.
To him, the marriage alliance was nothing more than a business deal. Unfortunately, his wife loved him far too much and couldn't bear to be apart from him.
She blamed him for working late and for not knowing how to comfort her. Pei Yan often found himself in the sweetly frustrating position of having to deal with it.
Until, after a cross-border meeting, he hurried home an hour early
His little wife was asleep in bed, pale skin and dark hair, his hollow yet beautiful eyes lowered slightly. He looked like a handful of freshly fallen snow, or a white bird with a broken wing.
Then the white bird woke up and gave a lazy yawn. "Give me the eye drops. I'll have to throw another tantrum in a bit."
"By the way, when is Pei Yan going to ask for a divorce? He gripped my hand so hard last night it turned red!"
"Hmph. Tonight I'll tear up a few more contracts. And pour me a glass of red wine. I want to splash it on him."
Pei Yan: "..."
Is his little wife actually a little liar?
