First Love Later in Life

Marriage First, Love Later. A lighthearted slice-of-life story (original title: Arranged Marriage) [Content warning: The marriage certificate in Chapter 5 was deliberately designed this way. If you dislike this kind of plot, proceed with caution, proceed with caution, proceed with caution.] The first time Cheng Kan heard that he had a childhood betrothal wife, he thought it was ridiculous and absurd. No matter what she looked like, even if she were a goddess descended to earth, he still wouldn't marry her! Otherwise, he would be a turtle crawling on the ground. Fang Yuanyuan is beautiful, with a sweet voice. She graduated from a 211 university and has a secure public-sector job. For nearly half a year, she has been pestered and harassed by a rich third-generation heir, one of Haicheng's Four Young Masters. Just when she could hardly bear it any longer, the parents of the man she was betrothed to as a child suddenly showed up at her door. She wouldn't be losing out in this arranged marriage. First, their son isn't stupid or disabled. He did drop out of college to play video games, but he really did make a name for himself, with years as an active pro and countless honors. Second, her in-laws have enough money to buy out the rich heir's entire family. Most importantly, they treat her exceptionally well. The thing they say most often is, "That high-school-graduate brat of ours has no idea how many lifetimes' worth of good fortune he must have accumulated to marry you." Third, her arranged-marriage husband lives at his team's training base and almost never comes home. Living alone in a mansion worth hundreds of millions, Fang Yuanyuan sighed: fate cannot be defied; lying flat is the truth. Fang Yuanyuan didn't have high hopes for this arranged marriage. They could simply share a life together. If he showed her a certain amount of respect and gave her household expenses on time, while she gave him a warm home where he could relax, that would already be an ideal arrangement. But... Her arranged-marriage husband started coming home more and more often. Where had the robot gone, the one who had clearly declared when they first got their marriage certificate that competition and training came above all else, and that he had sworn off love? Cheng Kan was puzzled. Among his married friends, why was he the only one who had never knelt on a keyboard? Why was he the only one who hadn't handed over his salary card? Fang Yuanyuan tactfully explained that the team was currently at a crucial stage. It was all right if he couldn't come home; she understood completely. Cheng Kan narrowed his eyes. "Divorce? Dream on!" * On the championship night of the global finals, amid golden lights, applause, and cheers, Fang Yuanyuan walked step by step toward Cheng Kan, glory once again bestowed upon him. "Congratulations on your triumphant return." A photo of the two of them embracing tightly shot to the top of the trending searches.

Unfortunately, the childhood friend who made her eyes light up was a block of wood who never got the hint, from beginning to end. Sang Zhi stubbornly spent more than ten years being "buddies" with Shen Jiamu. Just when she was almost ready to give up, the clouds finally parted and the moon appeared. They registered their marriage when they were thirty. Years later, Sang Zhi thought: When she was young, she had been so single-minded, following this old geezer around when there were countless men in the world. It was a shame she'd never experienced what it was like to be pursued. After marrying Sang Zhi, Shen Jiamu countless times sighed that the best thing he had ever done in this life was marry her. In his next life, he wanted to be with his beloved wife again. One morning, they woke up and found themselves back twenty years in the past. A handsome foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes said earnestly to Sang Zhi, "I'll take you to my hometown to see the aurora and eat fish I caught with my own hands. You can even use the golden hair on my arms to knit a heart." A handsome, sunny basketball team captain with muscles all over said gently to Sang Zhi, "You can do more than just look at my abs. You can touch them, too." Shen Jiamu: No, he won't allow anyone to be more devoted than him! #Reborn, and now my wife doesn't want me# #Wife, don't you love me anymore?# #Wife, I love you# Synopsis screenshot dated 2023.3.24 Theme: Break through constraints, and tomorrow will be better.
