After she accidentally sent a confession text to a client who looked just like her fictional husband, he replied instantly: "I've always liked you too. So, shall we get married?"
*
Because of the trauma of being stalked and harassed by a male classmate in college, Lu Yingli is allergic to real-life men and only loves fictional characters.
Five years later, the stalking and harassment return. Every day, without fail. A female colleague at work is also jealous of her and treats her like a rival, spreading rumors about her everywhere. Driven to desperation, Lu Yingli sends a confession text to Mr. D, a client she'd only met once.
She thinks that if he rejects her or ignores her, this whole farce will be over.
Unexpectedly, he replies at once: "I've always liked you too. So, shall we get married?"
Lu Yingli: ?
Mr. D is so fearsome in the business world that people tremble at the mention of his name. But with her, he's a gentle and considerate gentleman.
When he learns that she's being stalked and harassed, he silently takes care of everything: bodyguards to escort her to and from work, a room for her in his mansion, round-the-clock checks on her safety, and the stalker deported from the country.
If money can solve a problem, he can solve it. If money can't, he can still solve it.
Anything she mentions in passing appears before her. He even spends a fortune renting out a top-tier hotel to hold a birthday party for her "fictional husband." Looking at the enormous projection screen, Lu Yingli sighs that fictional husbands really are the most wonderful things in the world.
Standing beside her, Mr. D gazes down at her with a gentle yet peculiar smile. "Is that so? He's... incredibly lucky to be loved by you so much."
Maybe it was her imagination, but Lu Yingli suddenly noticed that Mr. D not only looked exactly like her fictional husband, his name, voice, and even some of his little habits were the same.
It was supposed to be a fake marriage, yet he indulged and doted on her to an unbelievable degree. Just like in a game.
What would she do when they got divorced? Lu Yingli wondered, bewildered.
But when she said that, her friend fell silent on the phone, hesitating before speaking. "Putting everything else aside, just don't mention divorce in front of him..."
"And you'd better stop promoting other fictional characters, too."
That was her friend's parting advice before hanging up.
Mr. D, a possessive obsessive who takes action even faster than a stalker.
