Sinking Into Love After Marriage

It's finished! Time to dig in!

My next book will be "Winter Nights in Harbor City," about a Harbor City tycoon and a soft, flirtatious beauty. It's now open for follows. Weibo: Ying Shichun YSC

"Slow-burn scheming fox x down-on-her-luck heiress"

After disappearing for years, Ding Xiayi ran into Qiao Shiyi again at an auction. Hounded by her creditors, she stumbled into a private room. In the darkness, Ding Xiayi clutched the hem of Qiao Shiyi's clothes.

The pampered heiress of the past now looked like a little rabbit about to be slaughtered. Tears welled in her eyes as she begged him for help. She was nothing like the bright and beautiful Ding Xiayi in Qiao Shiyi's memories.

Qiao Shiyi crouched down and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, but his voice was flat and emotionless. "What do I get out of helping you?"

Ding Xiayi clutched his clothes, refusing to let go, and asked between sobs, "What do you need?"

Qiao Shiyi's gaze settled on her face. His heart tightened, and the clear spring in his eyes turned to warm water.

"I don't lack a thing. I lack a wife."

Rumor had it that Qiao Shiyi, head of the Qiao family, was ruthless and dominated the business world. Everyone who saw him had to steer clear.

Some also said he had a beloved woman in his heart, the one he'd cherished for years. No one knew who she was.

Later, no one expected Qiao Shiyi to get married in a flash. When the news came out, everyone bet that the iron-fisted Mr. Qiao had married for business reasons and would dump his wife within two months. The stakes kept getting higher.

One day

Someone saw Qiao Shiyi being pushed onto a sofa by Ding Xiayi in a bar, while the soft, suggestive light shimmered around them.

He cradled Ding Xiayi's face. His warm breath brushed the tip of her nose, and his low, pleasant voice rumbled from his throat. The atmosphere was tender and intimate. "Want to come home with me?"

Later, someone brought up Qiao Shiyi's secret beloved in front of Ding Xiayi, warning her not to be fooled.

That night, Ding Xiayi brought it up with Qiao Shiyi. He wrapped an arm around her slender waist and pinned her against the mirror. "It's my fault. I've been longing for you, Xia Xia, for all these years, but I never dared say it."

Ding Xiayi rose on her toes and kissed his cheek to comfort him.

Qiao Shiyi pointed at his own lips and coaxed, "Come on, kiss me here."

Harbor City tycoon x soft, flirtatious beauty

Age gap / calculated approach / old flames rekindled

Rumor had it that the Su family's heiress was a stunning beauty, but she kept to herself, spending entire days practicing dance in the studio and rarely interacting with anyone.

Rumor had it that Fu Yanci, head of Harbor City's largest corporate group, was gentle and refined. But everyone knew he was a smiling tiger. Beneath his mild, humble exterior, he was cold-blooded and ruthless, with a fierce approach to business. He had even sidelined his own father.

No one could have imagined that these two people, who had nothing to do with each other, would ever cross paths.

On his first trip back to China, Fu Yanci arrived in Sucheng to attend Old Master Su's birthday banquet. Then, on a rainy night, he met Su Liyue, who was distraught and lost.

She grabbed him. Her clear eyes were still red and swollen from crying. "Third Uncle, will you take me away?"

"Where to?"

"Wherever you go."

The powerful Fu Yanci was wary of everyone, yet he made exception after exception for this young woman who had approached him with an ulterior motive.

Later, everyone in Harbor City and across the mainland knew that the ruthless Fu Yanci was pampering a rich flower. She could have anything she wanted, and whenever she pouted, looking aggrieved, Fu Yanci would give her even his own life.

Later still, after the rich flower got what she wanted, she ran away. Fu Yanci was so furious that he chased her overseas and dragged her back to Harbor City.

In the dim room, he advanced on her step by step, his hand clamped around her jaw. He looked menacing. "Su Liyue, you've got some nerve, trying to manipulate me."

Su Liyue dropped her usual sweet demeanor and looked at him calmly. "Third Uncle, we're both adults. We should know when to let go."

"Let go?" Fu Yanci let out a cold laugh through his nose. "You might as well dream."

"Where do you think you are, coming and going as you please?"

A few tips:

"Older man, nine-year age gap"

"An older man submits to love"
