Falling at First Sight

[Main story complete. Unruly is now serializing, so click into my profile and add it to your collection~]

Blurb:

1.

Xu Nuonuo first met Mu Yuan the day before their marriage of convenience.

He was devastatingly handsome, with an air of refined mystery that made her want to conquer him. She fell for him at first sight.

Xu Nuonuo boldly looked him up and down, then greeted him with, "Husband."

Her voice carried a hint of seduction.

She was bold and confident, yet her eyes looked utterly innocent.

Mu Yuan replied coolly, "I thought we hadn't registered our marriage yet."

Xu Nuonuo smiled serenely. "I like to rehearse in advance. If you think that's unfair, President Mu, you can call me 'Wife.'"

Mu Yuan glanced at her. "That would be even more unfair to me."

"..."

2.

From that day on, Xu Nuonuo was determined to make this man hers.

She put up a huge photo of herself outside Mu Yuan's bedroom;

pretended to be hurt so he'd carry her;

and clung to him during a power outage, claiming she was afraid of the dark and needed him to stay with her.

Mu Yuan remained unmoved.

One day in the car, Xu Nuonuo boldly leaned against him.

In her usual teasing tone, she asked, "Husband, do you like holding me?"

Finally fed up, Mu Yuan decided to teach her a lesson.

With a half-smile, he said, "I do..."

He lifted her onto his lap with one hand. "I don't just like holding you. I like kissing you, too."

Xu Nuonuo froze.

"W-wait..."

Cold, ruthless, wickedly charming CEO X Warm, alluring, clever little wife

-

I made a few small changes to the blurb. Nothing else has changed.

Reading notes:

1. Both leads are each other's first and only;

2. The groveling arc is very light.

The day Nan Xia broke up with Gu Shen, a torrential rain soaked him through.

He tossed his head with careless swagger, deliberately pretending not to care. His tone was flippant. "Are we really breaking up?"

Nan Xia, standing under an umbrella, said nothing.

Gu Shen handed her the umbrella, then turned and walked away.

2

On Nan Xia's first day at work after returning to the country, a promotional video playing on the office building caught her eye.

Director Gu Shen was handsome, eloquent, mature, and composed.

Her lovestruck colleague said, "Handsome, right? Director Gu is handsome, rich, and in great shape. Women are always throwing themselves at him."

Nan Xia nodded without thinking. "Very handsome."

When she turned around, she met Gu Shen's amused gaze.

Their eyes met. After a few seconds of silence, the subtle atmosphere sent the onlookers into a frenzy.

"You two know each other?"

Gu Shen answered casually, "We do."

Gu Shen: "She's my ex-girlfriend."

Gu Shen: "I dumped her."

Gu Shen: "I didn't expect her to be so hung up on me that she'd follow me here."

Gu Shen: "Now that you're here, I hope you won't let personal feelings affect your work."

Nan Xia: "..."

Everyone was curious. "Xiaxia, you're so beautiful. How did you get dumped?"

Nan Xia nodded with a sorrowful, aggrieved look. "It was all because that jerk was a lousy boyfriend."

Gu Shen: "..."

It's been a few years, and now she's learned to turn the tables on me?

Nan Xia, being very careful: I was just going along with what you said.
