Marriage first, love later / Pretend romance turns real

[Scheming, coquettish sweetheart X Cool, bewitching tycoon]

[The untouchable beauty falls from her pedestal]

The year Shen Yuanxing turned twenty-five, she did something significant.

To get into Fengcheng Group, a Fortune Global 500 company, she randomly found a man's photo online that looked good enough and pretended to be married.

After successfully joining the company, she was puzzled to discover that everyone around her seemed to defer to her in everything.

That was until one day, Qin Ze, CEO of Fengcheng Group, returned to the country.

Shen Yuanxing was summoned to his office alone. When she saw the man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, she wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.

Qin Ze stared right at her, like winter sunlight, distant and indifferent. He raised an eyebrow, seeming languid and casual, yet carrying the air of a man who looked down upon the world.

"I hear you're my wife?"

-

Shen Yuanxing knew that the truth couldn't stay hidden forever, but she hadn't expected it to come out so soon.

As the public outcry over her "married" status being exposed grew more and more intense, Shen Yuanxing remembered that she still hadn't kept the promise she'd made him.

She figured Qin Ze would stand by and do nothing. After all, he'd been the one accommodating her most of the time lately.

But just as she'd prepared herself to be fired, she ran into Qin Ze outside her home one night. "How about we make a deal?"

Shen Yuanxing gazed into his hawk-like eyes, glinting coldly. The man's deep, rich voice sounded in her ear. "Marry me, and I'll protect your job."

-

Later, the deal they'd agreed on became a joke.

Shen Yuanxing shot a glance at the man sprawled on her bed. The sun blazed outside, scorching the earth. She nudged him with her toes. "Qin Ze, you should go to work."

"How about you take the CEO's seat instead?"

"What do I have to trade this time?"

The man rolled over and pulled her into his arms, nuzzling her hair and breathing in its fragrance.

"One more time."

- The spring night is short, the sun is already high. From then on, the emperor never went to court early again.

#Office romance, face-slapping, a sweet and satisfying story full of kisses, cuddles, and being swept into someone's arms.

(Male lead) A madly devoted lunatic X (female lead) Cool and self-possessed

Everyone knew Jiang Yanzhou had a strange habit of looking at paintings before going to sleep every night.

But no one knew that the painting in his room was a self-portrait of his younger brother's fiancée.

One late night, in the studio of the Meilin Villa.

The girl in the painting stood before an easel, absorbed in her work as she mixed colors.

She was quietly immersed in a golden glow, as cool and distant as the crescent moon in the sky, noble and aloof.

Jiang Yanzhou stood beneath a tree, watching her through the floor-to-ceiling window.

His usually stern eyes were filled with tenderness he could barely hide.

*

Jiang Yanzhou never claimed to be a gentleman.

At the Jiang family's heir's banquet, he invited her to paint in front of him.

Shu Ran couldn't refuse. In the glass house he had arranged, she painted "Atop the Green Mountain."

When she set down her brush after the final stroke, he approached in a black suit, tall and straight as a pine, his shoulders and back sharply outlined, his presence commanding without a hint of anger.

He stopped in front of her and offered her a bouquet of white camellias. His movements were calm and composed. It looked less like an offering and more like a silent coronation.

"Miss Shu, I like you."

Shu Ran jerked back, her spine hitting the easel. Her paintbrush clattered to the floor.

She clenched her trembling fingers, but couldn't hide the alarm in her eyes. "Mr. Jiang, you should know what our relationship is."

Jiang Yanzhou's lips curled, madness and possessiveness surging in his eyes. "I don't."

*

Only Shu Ran knew what Jiang Yanzhou, so cold and chaste in public, was like in private.

He helped her escape her shackles, then pinned her in a corner night after night, taking her again and again.

He leaned close to her ear, his voice seductive. "I know better than he does how to cherish you."

Shu Ran had always thought that she was the first to lose her heart in this entanglement.

Little did she know that his love for her had continued humbly for decades.

#Ten years is enough for a city to change. But I'm still trapped at the starting point of loving you.
