Wealthy, dazzling top-tier star × special police captain
Strangers who fall in love after marrying first | The man is three years younger | Rugged man × high-maintenance sweetheart | Size difference
Blurb: Gu Qianzi and Xu Fengye are bound together in marriage for their families’ benefit. They have never met before the wedding, and neither family even held an engagement banquet because they were busy. Their first meeting is at their wedding.
On their wedding night, they immediately clash. Gu Qianzi dislikes that he lies on the bed in the suit he has worn all day, and dislikes his bulky build, which could crush her. Xu Fengye dislikes how high-maintenance she is and how her slender frame looks like it would snap in half.
They secretly agree to divorce after three years.
Then, the day after their wedding, something comes up with Xu Fengye’s unit, and they begin living apart.

The next time Xu Fengye hears the name Gu Qianzi is during a break at the end of a rescue operation following a landslide, when one of his teammates bursts into tears.
Xu Fengye raises an eyebrow, baffled. "Why are you crying like that? You’re a grown man."
"My goddess! Gu Qianzi! She’s filming a kissing scene!"
The moment the men in the camp hear Gu Qianzi’s name, they all pull out their phones. In an instant, the whole camp is filled with wailing.
Xu Fengye is speechless: "..."
Crying your eyes out over a woman who doesn’t even know you exist? You’re either stupid or an idiot.
That night, Xu Fengye wakes with a start. He remembers who Gu Qianzi is.
He opens his phone. He doesn’t even need to search: the first video that pops up shows Gu Qianzi, her long curls cascading down her back, her curvy figure pressed against a door, her bright, gorgeous face and alluring, watery eyes. One hand hooks around a man’s neck while the middle finger of the other teases its way down his chest. Suddenly, the man pulls her in by her slender waist, and the kiss happens right before his eyes.
Bang! He smashes his phone to pieces.
Someone wakes up and sees Xu Fengye heading out without looking back. "Captain, where are you going?"
"Home. I’m claiming my wife."

Because they have been living apart the whole time, both families begin to doubt their marriage. As luck would have it, Xu Fengye is back, and he and Gu Qianzi agree to act as lovey-dovey as ever in front of their elders, while keeping clear boundaries in private.
One night, they unexpectedly sleep together. Gu Qianzi hears the man’s rough breathing, feels her skin against his burning body, and experiences a sense of fullness unlike anything she has known before.
After that, they tacitly agree to share a bed.
One day, Gu Qianzi overhears his friend teasing him.
"You really like Gu Qianzi now?"
"Aren’t you the one who hates women who are high-maintenance, spoiled, and weak?"
"I do hate them," the man scoffs dismissively.
Gu Qianzi doesn’t listen to what comes next.
When she asks for a divorce, someone exposes her as a married woman. The whole internet goes wild, and everyone attacks her. As she finds herself at the center of the storm, Xu Fengye posts their marriage certificate.
[ Xu Fengye V: I protect her and my country, for her and for the people. ]
Everyone goes even more berserk!
Gu Qianzi is pinned beneath the man as he takes her again and again, finishing and starting over, as if he intends to make up for a whole lifetime in one night.
"Gu Qianzi, I’m in a military marriage. You think you can just divorce me whenever you want?"
"Aren’t you supposed to dislike women like me?"
"Who said that? I love how you act up, pick fights with me, and torment me."
The girl lets out a spoiled little whimper.
Gu Qianzi has no idea that the first time he saw her kissing scene, he was jealous enough to go mad!
