The Perfect Disguise

Chu Hengyan and Pei Yu'an met at a very particular matchmaking event.

Everyone there had a purpose: to find a marriage ally and put on an act.

Chu Hengyan smiled gently, her big, dewy eyes shyly turning toward the refined man across from her, who wore gold-rimmed glasses. "What a coincidence, Mr. Pei. Did you come because your family is pressuring you to get married, too? We're really in the same boat."

When they talked about their jobs, Pei Yu'an pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up his nose and smiled politely, cool and aloof. "I'm a PhD."

Chu Hengyan's lips curled, revealing a faint dimple. "I'm a preschool teacher."

"I really like your refined, gentle manner, Mr. Pei."

"I'm quite taken with your gentle, graceful charm, Miss Chu."

They quickly got their marriage certificate and began living together like perfectly polite roommates.

Then one day, at a banquet...

Pei Yu'an watched Chu Hengyan transform from an utterly ordinary waitress into a glamorous woman with flowing waves, bounding across rooftops as if she were in a spy movie. His expression grew complicated. "Preschool teacher?"

Chu Hengyan watched Pei Yu'an remove his gold-rimmed glasses and transform like a superhero. His punches were fierce, his long legs swept through the air like the wind, and burly men lay scattered at his feet. She struggled to find the words. "PhD?"
