Warning: This is not a story where both leads are each other's first and only partners.
A wolf in sheep's clothing (a seemingly pure, but actually dark, cruel, and unhinged male lead) vs. a cool-looking heroine (who really isn't very bright).
He said, "In my heart, you are my only wife."
He said, "Yifang and I were joined in a political marriage."
He also said, "I'm sorry, Aruo. Please put yourself in my shoes and try to understand me."
She asked, "A political marriage, huh? Did you share a bed?"
He fell silent. Her hands started itching.
She personally tore up their marriage contract and left without looking back.
But the creditor who had escorted her to the capital came knocking, volunteering to take a place at the table. Did he want to become her lover???
He was supposed to be a grand, white lotus. Why does something about him seem a little strange?
He said, "I love you, morning and night."
She replied, "Your feelings run deep, but our bond is too slight for me to accept."
Unexpectedly, he clutched her hand tightly, smiling like the breeze. "Whether our bond is deep or shallow is up to me."
Huh!??
Theme: How could she be with a man who doesn't embody the virtues of civility, courtesy, hygiene, discipline, and morality?
