Han Xu, eldest son of the Han family, is the most coveted alpha in Binhai City: cold and dignified, immensely powerful, and destined to inherit the Han family's billions and look down on the world.
Many people say that a top-tier alpha like him is never going to settle for just one partner. Whoever gets together with him can enjoy endless wealth, but shouldn't expect anything else.
It was amid all these comments that Fang Wen got engaged to Han Xu.
"Just an ordinary college student who got lucky and married up with Young Master Han. Just wait, he'll be nothing but a trophy. He won't be able to hold on to either Han's heart or his money."
What they didn't know was that every morning, Fang Wen awoke to a budding rose in the bedroom of the master of the Han family estate. For his birthday, Han Xu gave him a plane ticket to an island that had just been transferred into Fang Wen's name. When he couldn't persuade him, Han Xu played the violin for him every night until he fell asleep.
From everyday moments to being pampered by a wealthy family, Han Xu laid everything at Fang Wen's feet as if presenting him with treasures.
"Whether you accept is up to you. But I want you to know that I'm seriously pursuing you." The man across the dinner table was devastatingly handsome. His tone was calm, but his eyes were fixed intently on Fang Wen.
"But..." Fang Wen was still confused. "Aren't we already married?"
"I want to spend my whole life dating you," Han Xu blurted out.
I want to spend my whole life dating you, from the height of our youthful summer to our silver-haired old age.
When I'm old and look back on the past, I'll realize that the first time I saw you, I had already fallen in love with you and surrendered to you.
Your face is the most beautiful trace my life will ever leave behind.

Not long after their engagement, a doctor announced that Fang Wen's glands had developed abnormally. He couldn't receive a permanent mark yet. He would first need to get used to his partner's pheromones before being marked, and the process couldn't be interrupted.
An hour before his graduation defense, Fang Wen suddenly felt awful all over. He realized he hadn't seen Han Xu all day and hurriedly called him.
Twenty minutes later, the principal and a group of school board members rushed out to greet the eldest young master of the Han family, who had suddenly arrived to inspect the school.
Instead, Han Xu dragged Fang Wen into a small, dark room behind the auditorium and possessively bit his gland from behind.
When the temporary marking was over, Fang Wen's legs were weak and his cheeks were burning. He had no idea how to explain things to the people outside.
With an arm around him, Han Xu led him out and said languidly to the bewildered board members:
"This student of yours wrote an excellent thesis. I'm very pleased with it."
The board members: ???
A domineering CEO with an overwhelming possessive streak x a cool, elegant beauty. Marriage first, love later.
