We met through a matchmaker. The main thing is, we’re both grown adults, but when we argue and he gives me a look, I feel like a kid again, caught doing something wrong and too scared to even breathe when my parents find out. My husband’s three favorite lines when he scolds me are: “You dare talk back to me, hmm?” “Is that how you speak to your elders?” “Why are you being disobedient again?” He often says having me around is no different from raising a daughter. Of course, older men are better at spoiling their partners. Blurb 2 Zhihu: How do relationships that everyone thinks are mismatched turn out? Zhang Sinian: Thanks for the invite. We’re very much in love. All I can say is that only the person drinking the water knows whether it’s hot or cold. I’m not the perfect gentleman everyone thinks I am, and my wife isn’t nothing but flaws, either. When you truly love someone, even their little quirks and bad habits seem incredibly endearing. Yun Shu: A breath of fresh air among influencers, a force of chaos in show business, and an uninhibited comedy streamer who says whatever comes to mind. Zhang Sinian: Formerly a proper university professor, now a rising star in internet finance. Number one on S City’s list of eligible bachelors most coveted by socialites, known around town as the perfect gentleman.

Hope you enjoy it! **************Currently serializing: *Marriage First, Love Later with a Sunny, Puppy-Like Younger Man* *************** Blurb 1: The gifted students in T University’s special program have always been a lonely bunch, with no interest in romance. Yun Che is the brightest of them all, but he falls in love at just sixteen. That summer, a girl in a white dress smiles brightly, as pure and lovely as a gardenia. Jing Yan stands beneath a wall of wisteria cascading like a waterfall. Her peach-blossom eyes are full of laughter as she reaches up to ruffle his hair. “You like older women? You’ll have to wait until you grow up.” - Later, Yun Che sees a photo in the entertainment section of the newspaper: fireworks lighting up Victoria Harbour, with two people kissing beneath the dazzling display. Handsome and beautiful, from equally well-matched families, a perfect couple. That’s how the newspaper describes them. His older sister never waited for him to grow up. - They meet again at a project presentation. Jing Yan wears a sharp business suit, her gaze steady and piercing behind silver-rimmed glasses. She casually flips through a few pages, then tosses Yun Che’s painstakingly crafted proposal aside and dismisses it without mercy. “A student team’s pipe dream.” Yun Che argues passionately for environmental protection, but Jing Yan cuts him off coldly. “I’m a businesswoman. I care about return on investment. What do any of those things have to do with me?” - Later, Jing Yan knocks on his door, a little tipsy. Her red dress shows off her graceful figure, and her rose-colored nails brush lightly over Yun Che’s cheek. Her breath is sweet as she asks, “You like older women?” Seeing Yun Che’s handsome face flush red, she leans close to his ear and whispers, “I’ll give you the project. We can date just for fun, too. Do you want to marry me?” Blurb 2: Word around the industry is that Jing Yan is calculating and skilled at getting her way. She rushed into marriage just to secure control of the company, while her ivory-tower student husband knows nothing of the world, stays out of the group’s affairs, and is easy to control. But Jing Yan’s plans go further than that. In the scheme she laid over four years, Yun Che was the only thing she didn’t account for. Yun Che offers her a spotless, golden heart, and she willingly steps into his gentle trap. But later, Jing Yan discovers that Yun Che, who loves clinging to her and acting like a golden retriever, isn’t as harmless and innocent as he seems. She hears that the youngest son of Ning City’s century-old Rong family is named Che, and takes his mother’s surname, Yun. The tall, slender young man can easily pin her in his arms and kiss the rose-shaped birthmark behind her ear until she’s flushed. His usually gentle, harmless puppy eyes are filled with desire. In a slightly hoarse voice, he whispers, “Sis, I might get a little wild tonight.” Blurb 3: Jing Yan once bought a plot of land, but after the city revised its plans, it sat abandoned for years. One day, she drove past and saw that the wasteland had been completely transformed. Yun Che, a renowned botany professor, stands under the blazing sun, scattering flower seeds himself. Roses bloom in a dazzling sea of color. Jing Yan remembers what the young man whispered in her ear on that damp night: “There are millions of flowers in the world, but you’ll always be my one and only rose.” Weibo: @Jinjiang author Wanzhi Theme:
