[Childhood Friends] [From Campus to the Wedding Altar]
1,
In their youth:
Jiang Niannian first met Xu Nuo at the birthday party of the person she had a crush on.
Xu Nuo made his entrance in a wine-red suit, so flashy he ruined the whole party.
Her friend pointed at Xu Nuo and said to Jiang Niannian, "Look, the youngest young master of the Xu family. Isn't he dazzling?"
Jiang Niannian snorted. "He'll keel over from getting laid sooner or later."
Xu Nuo heard his buddies' assessment: "The eldest daughter of the Jiang family really lives up to her reputation as one of the capital's great socialites. She's gorgeous, graceful, and elegant."
Xu Nuo scoffed. "A two-faced drama queen."
The two were at each other's throats. A little bickering was fun, but a big fight hurt... Xu Nuo.
The two had grown up under the watchful eyes of both families.
When Jiang Niannian was provoked into tears, Xu Nuo got beaten up.
When Xu Nuo was provoked into tears, Xu Nuo still got beaten up.
Their feud was sealed for good, and even their departures abroad, one after the other, failed to resolve it.

Years later.
Jiang Niannian never imagined she'd run into Xu Nuo under these circumstances.
At the airport parking lot, Xu Nuo had his arm around a busty beauty. His flashy outfit matched his even flashier supercar as he called out to her, "Miss, want a ride?"
"A two-seater supercar for three people? That's too cramped."
Xu Nuo handed the beauty a check and broke up with her right there. "It's not cramped anymore."
It became a trending topic.
Their mutual friends didn't think much of it. "Those two have the kind of relationship where they could strip and sleep in the same bed, and still just share a blanket and chat."
The entertainment news was nonsense.

Until the day the man Jiang Niannian loved went all out to arrange a proposal, causing an uproar among their friends.
Young Master Xu's buddy said, "You're finally free."
Xu Nuo sneered to himself. Free, my ass. That's my wife.
That night, Xu Nuo kept Jiang Niannian up all night, spending the whole time discussing what to call each other on their marriage certificates.
"Let me hear you call me hubby."
"Get lost."
"As you wish. Let's get into bed together."
Their buddies woke up, opened their social media, and were horrified to see wedding photos flooding their feeds.
Was the sky falling?
