- Cat-licking romance / marriage before love
1. Zhou Jingshen, a partner at Zhou Yi Law Firm, is handsome, sharp-tongued, and tsundere, but he has no interest in women.
His friends are beside themselves with worry over his love life, and keep introducing him to single women they know: "My friend may have a sharp tongue, but she's great in every other way."
After they finally convince a woman to agree to meet him, Zhou Jingshen sees her photo and says, "She's too sultry. Not my type."
Xu Suinan: ?
Friends: ??
Take a look at yourself. What gives you the right to be picky?
2.
Xu Suinan is fair-skinned and beautiful, with a privileged background. This is the first time a man has ever turned her down.
She can't accept it and insists on seeing what the man looks like.
At their first meeting, the man is wearing gold-rimmed glasses. And, well, he's pretty handsome?
Xu Suinan puts the rejection behind her and takes the initiative to ask him out: "There's a great new Western restaurant on West Street. Would you care to join me, Mr. Yuan?"
Zhou Jingshen adjusts his glasses and gives a light sneer. "I'm busy tonight."
Xu Suinan: He turned me down again??
3.
Everyone at the firm thinks Partner Zhou might be gay and isn't into women. Until one day, they hear a coquettish female voice giggling outside the office: "Mr. Zhou, how about marrying me?"
The man's voice is hoarse with restraint. "All right."
