Spoiled, delicate shou x old-fashioned, powerful heir to a wealthy family gong
Marriage first, love later / 10-year age gap / size difference
1. Overnight, the news that the Gu family's young master in Beicheng had been switched at birth shot to the top of the trending list. Gu Yan went from a pampered rich kid to an unknown nobody named Le Yan.
Unable to accept the upheaval, Le Yan went to a bar alone to drink himself into a stupor, and accidentally got involved with a man.
The next morning, Le Yan woke up clutching his aching backside. A tall, distinguished man stood beside the bed, buttoning his shirt with meticulous care.
"Here's a gold card and my business card. Come to me whenever you need anything. I have an important meeting, so I'll be going."
Xiao Weilin?
Le Yan glanced at the name on the business card, scoffed, and tossed it into the trash with the card.
I'm not desperate enough to sell myself.
2. Xiao Weilin is the heir apparent to a family with a century of wealth. He's 193 centimeters tall, broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, with sharp brows and the innate air of nobility that comes from being raised with a British education.
A man who had always kept an extremely low profile suddenly announced his engagement in grand fashion at a family banquet.
His arm was wrapped tightly around his new wife's waist, his eyes full of the utmost tenderness.
"This is my wife, Le Yan."
Everyone who'd been waiting to laugh at the disowned rich kid Le Yan was stunned, then hurriedly put on flattering smiles.
Le Yan knew that his marriage to Xiao Weilin was purely a matter of mutual benefit. After the wedding, Xiao Weilin was busy with work, while Le Yan carried on going to bars and staying out all night like before. He never expected the man to block his way outside the bar on the very first night.
"Baby, your clothes are too short. Don't wear them again."
"Baby, hard liquor is bad for your stomach. Don't drink it again."
"Baby, staying up late is bad for you. Come home with me."
Le Yan pouted. This wasn't getting a husband, it was getting a dad.
3. The moment Le Yan heard that the person rumored to be Xiao Weilin's unreachable ideal had returned to the country, he packed his bags and left without hesitation.
The usually reserved, steady man went red-eyed and wild with panic. He called in every favor he had to stop the plane, brought Le Yan home, and didn't leave the house for seven days and seven nights.
Restrained on the bed, Le Yan was close to tears, like a tame kitten stripped of its claws.
"Yanyan, are you going to run away again?"
"If you run again, it'll be fourteen days."
Reader notes:
Both are each other's first and only
Very cheesy, very sweet
The person Xiao Weilin idealizes is Le Yan himself
Theme: Love one another and strive for success.
