Marriage first, love later/the process from never falling in love to loving each other deeply
Su Jianyue remembered that the first time she met Zhou Rangchen was in the city library many years ago.
Daylight poured in from the transparent roof. He sat there casually, his bony fingers tapping the keyboard quickly, and there was no expression on his handsome face. During the whole process, he didn't even pay any attention to the girl who had been accompanying him all afternoon.
They happened to be riding in the same elevator when the museum was closed, but something unexpectedly broke down and they were trapped inside.
Su Jianyue was inevitably scared in the dark and narrow space, and the crisp sound of candy hitting the iron box rang in her ears.
Then, a casual voice came over: "Little friend, would you like a mint?"
Time flies, and many years later, the eldest son of the Zhou family is still a man of the hour. The youngest brain specialist at the city hospital has a lot of love affairs and is a good match in the eyes of many people.
Su Jianyue became a legal aid lawyer despite strong opposition from her family. The eldest lady who doesn't like fireworks has seen all the warmth and coldness of human nature.
On that blind date, Zhou Rangchen had a gentlemanly demeanor, but his attitude could not hide his alienation. Su Jianyue knew that this meeting was destined to end in vain.
Before the dinner ended, he unexpectedly asked her, "Miss Su, do you want to get married?"
There was a bit of surprise in her eyes, and then she shook her head decisively, "I don't want to."
After hearing this, a specious smile appeared on Zhou Rangchen's lips, not frivolous but inexplicably bewitched.
"Otherwise, let's give it a try?"
A loveless marriage, two people who are not married above all else, just living together like this. People around him sometimes inquire into the details, but secretly guess how long it will last.
Until that day, when Zhou Rangchen was in high spirits and invited all colleagues in the department to drink coffee, someone teased him about something good that had happened.
He smiled and couldn't hide his pride, "It's nothing, it's just that my wife won another lawsuit."
That night, the people from the law firm finally met Su Jianyue's mysterious husband.
Dressed in white clothes and black trousers, he looks straight and upright, and his angular face is somewhat unruly, noble and unruly.
The aura of keeping strangers away disappeared the moment he saw Su Jianyue. He picked her up with one hand and spun her around as if there was no one else around, then with a gentle look on his face he brought the red roses hidden behind him to her eyes.
"Congratulations, Mrs. Zhou."

Your smile is a rose-colored lock. I carefully hide the key, for fear that others will glimpse this stunning beauty. ——Zhou Rangchen
Note: "Your smile is rose-colored locks" comes from the song "Only Staring at You"
Intention: You are my ideal in the world
