Why Is My Arranged-Marriage Husband Like That?

Yu Jing is cool and beautiful. Before he has even graduated from college, the Si family names him as their chosen marriage partner.

The Si family sends over an agreement: Yu Jing is to help treat Si Xingzhao's psychological illness, and after three years, they will let him leave.

Yu Jing agrees.

When they meet, the handsome man, accustomed to being in a position of power and exuding an air of danger, coldly rejects him and says that marriage partners should keep their distance.

Until Yu Jing comes home early and sees Si Xingzhao, who has always kept to himself, curled up on the bed in his bedroom.

He watches as Si Xingzhao casually finds the clothes he usually wears in his wardrobe, then clutches a blanket and cries until his eyes turn red.

When he sees Yu Jing, Si Xingzhao, an Alpha who claims to be in heat, bursts into tears. He calls him his wife and sobs, asking why he's home so late.

Si Xingzhao: "Do you have another Alpha on the side, wife?"

Yu Jing: "...What's an Alpha?"

Only then does Yu Jing understand what "treatment" means in the agreement.

There's something wrong with Si Xingzhao's head. He has episodes from time to time.

When he's having an episode, he's an eighteen-year-old Alpha who calls Yu Jing his wife and clings to him, insisting he stay by his side.

Si Xingzhao also says his heat comes every month.

Yu Jing: "This is a scam."

According to the prenuptial agreement, all he has to do is give Si Xingzhao one kiss and several hugs each week.

But now the man who thinks he's an Alpha considers Yu Jing his wife and has unilaterally torn up the prenuptial agreement.

Yu Jing reminds him: "Please keep your distance."

Si Xingzhao grabs his wife: "Wife, don't leave me, waaaah, wife, waaaah!"

Yu Jing: "Please behave yourself!!!"

Si Xingzhao refuses and asks his wife for a kiss: "If you don't want me, I'll be so sad I'll die."

Yu Jing can't push him away. He looks suspiciously at the perfectly normal medical checkup report. "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"

Si Xingzhao buries himself in his wife's arms: "I'm not doing it on purpose. Let me cuddle, wife~"

[Little Bonus Scene]

Yu Jing and Si Xingzhao, the married couple, attend a banquet. Everyone speculates that they're on bad terms.

After all, it's a marriage of convenience, and Si Xingzhao is cold and hard-hearted. He wouldn't go soft just because his marriage partner is beautiful.

Until they see the notorious Si Xingzhao holding the cool, beautiful man tightly and clinging to him, calling him his wife and begging for a kiss.

Yu Jing, the beautiful man himself, has red eyes. He calmly pushes Si Xingzhao away. "You've used up your allowance for this week."

So much for a marriage of convenience?
