Love Has Been Here All Along

She has plenty of odd quirks:

"Sorry, I might have mild face blindness. I can't remember people." Are you sure you're not just lazy?

"I don't dare keep pets. Anything alive that I try to raise ends up dying." Are you sure you're not just clueless?

"You can touch anything, just don't touch my dictionary. I love reading dictionaries most." Are you sure that's not an illness?

She looks sweet, adorable, and warm:

Her negotiating opponents take one look at this "little angel" and feel their hearts warm. But once the negotiations are over, they never want to see this "little angel" again.

The older colleagues at the company protect her like a little girl in the palm of their hand, while the men who covet her are all sent packing.

At first, he doted on her like she was his daughter. But as he kept spoiling her, he discovered another side to her, and his "daughter" became his wife.

Deep down, she's willful and cold:

She says, "I don't need love, and I don't expect it either."

She says, "Marriage is a grave, and it will be my grave alone."

She says, "The prenuptial agreement must state that if we divorce, the children are mine."

He once asked her, "What is love?"

She said, "Love means staying by my side, never leaving me, until we're old."

So he led her into the one thing she had always avoided: marriage. He gave her warmth and a home, slowly breaking through the heart she had hidden behind her disguise.

But by then, he was confused. Did they really have love between them?

The truth was, love had always been there. He just didn't understand.

PS: Both leads are virgins, one couple only. Don't be put off by the blurb or opening. It's genuinely not angsty, just a heartwarming and realistic love story for girls who are most afraid of love.
