[Marriage First, Love Later / The Male Lead Has a Secret Crush]
Rumor has it that Mu Qishen, the head of the Mu family, is ruthless and unpredictable because he is crippled in both legs. No one in their circle dares to cross him.
But ever since Wen Ying, the youngest daughter of the Wen family, returned from abroad, his close friends noticed that the usually cold Mu Qishen had become a different person.
He spoke softly and gently to her,
and tenderly peeled shrimp for her.
Even when Wen Ying touched the legs he was usually most sensitive about, he only lowered his eyes in feigned dejection and, for the first time, showed weakness in front of others. “It hurts.”
His friends: Is this really the Mu Qishen we know???
--
Wen Ying and Mu Qishen grew up together. She had always thought of him as the warm older brother who protected her.
When she needed someone to marry to appease her family, Mu Qishen naturally offered to help.
She hesitated.
The man gently rubbed the top of her head. “Then we’ll be family from now on. Isn’t that nice?”
But only after they married did she realize
that Mu Qishen had never wanted a marriage in name only, and he had no intention of being just her older brother.
He completely dropped the pretense he had put on before the wedding.
His eyes roiled like dark tides, and his gentle voice resonated from his chest right beside her ear. “Yingying, if I remember correctly...”
--“We’re legally married now.”

Later, Wen Ying witnessed his gloomy, sinister side with her own eyes.
When handling business, he was domineering, overbearing, and unscrupulous. There was no trace of the gentle man she had known. At the entrance to the conference room, she took a step back and watched the man who had always been a gentle gentleman rise from his wheelchair and approach her like a stranger.
His rough fingers rubbed her soft lips. “Are you scared?”
The girl trembled, her lashes quivering, but she still summoned the courage to speak.
“I’m not scared. Kiss me, and then I won’t be scared.”
“A gentle brute, who obeys only me. -- Mu Xin.”

[Reading Guide]:
The male lead's legs had already healed by the time the female lead returned.
A mutually doting redemption story, all sweetness. Enjoy! :P
The male lead's name may change.
I wanted to call it Gentle Brute, but “brute” didn't seem quite right for a title, so I changed it to Believer.
