******Mr. Xie Married Young******

[Full manuscript complete. Marriage first, love later]

Recent business headlines: The Xu family of Jiangcheng and the Xie family of Beicheng are joining forces through marriage!

Xie Zhao built his fortune from nothing. In business circles, people say he is arrogant, devious, and ruthless. Yet he is young, handsome, and powerful, drawing countless admirers, though no one has ever managed to get close to him.

People say the Xu family's daughter is gentle and pure, as innocent as a blank sheet of paper. She could never tame him.

No one had faith in the marriage. Sure enough, after the wedding, someone spotted Xie Zhao at a bar, acting very familiar with a hot young woman.

The next day, Xu Tingyun looked furious at a banquet.

Everyone waited for news of their divorce, but instead, wedding invitations arrived.

-

Their wedding was a grand affair on a small island by the sea.

The barefoot bride wore a short dress, looking like a charming, adorable fairy princess who had just arrived in the world.

Everyone was amazed. Was this really the gentle fairy who only ever smiled?

From the moment Xu Tingyun appeared, Xie Zhao's gaze stayed fixed on her.

Anyone with eyes could see that the star tattoo on the bride's arm was exactly the same as the one sported by the hot young woman who had been with Xie Zhao at the bar!

After the wedding, people were still gossiping about the state of their relationship.

In the dressing room, Xu Tingyun sat on Xie Zhao's lap as he wiped the fine sand from the soles of her feet. She said excitedly, "I heard the bars here are really special!"

Xie Zhao gripped her slender waist, his gaze dangerous. "Don't even think about it. Either you stay with me, or I go drag you back. Take your pick."

[Bonus Scenes]

1. One day after their wedding, Xu Tingyun got a star tattoo on her arm for the first time. No matter how Xie Zhao tried to wheedle or pressure her, she wouldn't tell him why.

Until one morning, Xu Tingyun discovered that Xie Zhao had a small planet tattooed in the same spot on his arm.

Xie Zhao narrowed his long eyes, his voice lazy. "Shaoshao, do you know that when you're drunk, you tell me everything?"

"You're the steady star by my side, shining forever."

2. Lately, Xu Tingyun had noticed that wherever she went, she ran into Xie Zhao.

Her roommate dragged her to the auditorium to hear an outstanding alumnus give a speech.

Onstage, Xie Zhao was stern and cool. Every so often, his roguish smile made the girls want to scream, and they all wondered what kind of girl Mr. Xie liked.

Down below, Xu Tingyun had just deleted a message from a man when another one arrived: "Come home tonight, or should I come down and take you with me?"

Xu Tingyun kept a straight face and quietly sent him a sticker.

During the Q&A, someone asked the same old question about whether Xie Zhao had a girlfriend.

Xie Zhao looked toward a certain spot in the audience. "No. I'm married."

Everyone got excited. Xie Zhao said unhurriedly, "I'll be going now. If I'm late, my fairy will scold me again."

And so, the news that Mr. Xie had married young and was terribly henpecked spread far and wide.

-Rebellious fairy x devoted wife-spoiling husband

-Seven-year age gap

-Both are each other's first love. Sweet romance, no angst

Finally, the Nth time Shen Wanfeng asked Ji Li for an autograph, he couldn't help asking, "Are you moonlighting as a scalper? Do you plan to sell all these autographs?"
