Gentle, resilient wife * cruel, depraved CEO
In the first year of her marriage, Cheng Ying and her husband treated each other with respect and affection. There was only one thing that wasn't quite right.
“Sorry, I'm not feeling up to it today.”
After a brief moment of intimacy, the two embraced, and Cheng Ying heard her husband murmur, “Yingying, do you blame me?”
Of course Cheng Ying didn't blame her husband. She only felt dejected, unsure what to do about her embarrassing, unfulfilled desires.

On his first day parachuting into the branch office, Zhou Yanxing swiftly dealt with several employees. Everyone in the company was on edge, but he found it all unbearably dull.
That was, until he saw a woman waiting outside the building with a cute lunchbox in her hands. His gaze paused for a moment.
He recognized her. She was the heiress who had once looked down on him and rejected him. After a turn of events left her family in decline, she'd actually married such a useless man.
Zhou Yanxing curled his lips into an amused smile.
At the company outing, Zhou Yanxing watched Cheng Ying lean tenderly against his most incompetent subordinate one moment, gazing at him with sparkling almond-shaped eyes.
The next, unable to tell him apart from his subordinate, she hugged the wrong man from behind and cooed coyly, “Honey, can we go home early today?”
She buried her face against his back, her slender fingertips tracing his chest with pointed intent, both shy and ardent.
Zhou Yanxing's Adam's apple bobbed. A wicked, audacious idea suddenly came to him.

Zhou Yanxing admitted that at first, he had only played the game of pretending to be her husband to get revenge for being rejected all those years ago.
But as he held her soft, pale body in a marital bed that wasn't his, listening to her quiet moans, he thought that this was exactly how things should be.
But no secret stays hidden forever, and someone eventually discovered the crude fake.
Cheng Ying lowered her head and wept silently, only for every tear to be kissed away.
The man stared down at her, deliberately thrusting his hips as he narrowed his eyes and teased her into submission.
“Yingying, why aren't you calling me 'Honey' anymore?”

“On every night when jealousy drove me mad, I willingly played the wicked fake who had to stay in the shadows.”
