Her family cherishes her like a precious jewel, making Old Master Huo green with envy. He takes it upon himself to arrange a marriage alliance between his eldest grandson, Huo Ningci, and the Nan family.

Huo Ningci is cold and taciturn, and notorious in their social circle for his ascetic ways.

When people hear that he has been forced into an arranged marriage, they all wait to see Nan Xing become a lonely bride.

Then one day, someone spots Huo Ningci in a corner of a banquet hall, holding his darling wife close and kissing her.

His long-fingered hand is buried in her soft hair, and his gaze is filled with an overpowering possessiveness.

Rumors spread through their circle that Nan Xing bravely pursued love and melted the glacier that is Huo Ningci.

Unacceptable!

The next series story, The Days of a Substitute Marriage with Director Gu, is now open for advance reservations~~

When she was young, Xia Yi pursued love with reckless courage. Though she knew she was only a substitute, she still tried her hardest and married Gu Beixing.

When she finally woke from her dream, Gu Beixing had made a name for himself. Everyone thought Xia Yi had made it through the hard times, but she insisted on divorcing him.

Before the divorce.

Gu Beixing's eyes were full of casual mockery: Can you manage without me?

A year later.

Gu Beixing's eyes were red as he clung to Xia Yi and pleaded: Xia Yi, I can't manage without you.

After the one-time rising star Xia Yi made her comeback, a short video made her an instant sensation.

In a world of ice and snow, she came bathed in the aurora, wings draped over her shoulders. Barefoot, with her red lips and painted toenails standing out against the white landscape, she created a striking visual contrast.

The video ended abruptly with the faint curve of her lips.

Netizen A: My baby, aren't your feet cold? Mommy will warm them for you!

Netizen B: I'm dead. Xia Yi's smile killed me!

The next day, Gu Beixing, who had just won the Lumiere Awards for Best Picture and Best Director, posted a photo of the aurora from inside a glass house and tagged her: @Xia Yi, I'll wait for you.

Half an hour later, Xia Yi posted a photo of two glasses of red wine inside a desert tent, with the caption: My new love.

Her fans went wild, and the whole internet mocked Gu Beixing.

Reader's Guide:

1. A marriage-first, love-later story. The heroine is a sweet, gentle girl. One-on-one romance, happy ending. Updates every day at noon sharp. I'll let you know when there are two updates; any other updates are just typo fixes. Everything about the entertainment industry is made up by me and has no real-life inspiration. Any resemblance is purely coincidental.

Theme: Only by becoming independent and self-reliant can women stand tall before everyone. She can be gentle, but her heart must be strong. She can cry, but once she wipes away her tears, she must not falter in her actions.
