Pretty, sweet, adorable, well-behaved heiress x sunny, wicked bad-boy ghost
[This one will start once it reaches 300 saves. I promise it'll be good!]
-
Lin Suiyi works part-time at a hotel front desk over summer vacation and catches her boyfriend cheating. She trembles with anger, only for him to put her down:
“You have no connections or abilities. What do you have besides that face? If you can't give me what I want, don't hold back my future.”
Lin Suiyi is a mama's girl. Once she sees her scumbag boyfriend for what he is, she has no shame about throwing herself into her mother's arms and sobbing.
Her mother makes the decision on the spot: “Why are you crying? I'll arrange a marriage for you!”
Her prospective groom has just turned eighteen. He's 188 cm tall, broad-shouldered and slim-waisted, a quarter Russian, with clear, soulful, amber-green eyes. He's so handsome he looks like a beautiful high school boy straight out of an anime. When his eyes meet Lin Suiyi's by chance, his ears turn red.
On their wedding night, both of them miss their mothers terribly. One sits at the head of the bed and cries; the other sits at the foot of the bed and cries.
After getting married, they make a complete mess of their life together. They can't get through three sentences without saying “Mom says,” and they call their mothers to ask about everything, big or small.
Her best friend: “You two... You don't ask your moms before doing that kind of thing too, do you?”
Lin Suiyi blushes. “Maybe... boys just know what to do in that department.”
Jiang Suye is completely different in bed. He always says things in English that make her blush, and he likes making her cry and beg for mercy.
“Baby, you sound so sweet when you cry. You've got this place all wet.”
“Good girl. You've even got me all dirty.”

Not long after, Lin Suiyi runs into her ex-boyfriend. One of his legs is lame, and he avoids her as if he has seen a ghost.
Lin Suiyi finds it strange and accidentally learns from her best friend that her ex once came to beg her to take him back, but Jiang Suye broke his leg and threatened him not to go near her.
Lin Suiyi can't believe it. Who? Her little mama's-boy husband?
Her best friend is astonished. “A mama's boy? The possessiveness in his eyes was like he was licking you with his gaze!”
Lin Suiyi: “No way. You must have seen wrong.”
Her little mama's-boy husband is clearly so sweet. When he can't find her, his eyes turn red, and he reminds her to come home on time like a puppy.
The young couple's life is sweet and affectionate, until Lin Suiyi accidentally discovers the shocking family scandal behind their arranged marriage and leaves home in a state of collapse with her uncle's help.
When she opens her eyes again, she's back in the marital home she shares with Jiang Suye.
She never knew this villa had a fully finished basement. Chains extending from the walls are shackled around her ankles.
Jiang Suye presses his cheek against her palm. “Baby, do you want a divorce so you can be with your uncle?”
Lin Suiyi has never seen Jiang Suye like this. Realizing he's been pretending from the very beginning, she's so frightened that tears stream down her face.
Jiang Suye reverently kisses away her tears. His voice is so gentle it makes her shiver. “What a shame. He can only watch you cry because of me.”

1. The leads have a foreign marriage certificate.
2. The male lead has no direct connection to the injury to the ex-boyfriend's leg.
3. Physical attraction only begins after marriage. There is no secret crush beforehand.
4. The heroine isn't a silly, naive sweetheart. She's a well-behaved girl who has been conditioned to obey, and this is a story about breaking free of her chains.
5. The synopsis is long because no one reads my short ones. It's only a small part of the story. I promise the novel itself will have a very rich plot and romance. ❤️
