Bright, clear-headed, and a little spoiled x aloof, scheming daddy type
Supermodel x CEO
One-on-one / both virgins / eight-year age gap / size difference / he has been plotting this for a long time / an old flame rekindled / marriage first (and sex), love later
Chen Yunqing, the eldest daughter of the Chen family in Wugang, is radiant, spoiled, and given to throwing tantrums. She often gets away with everything on account of her beauty. People in their circle have mixed opinions of her, but all agree that she isn't the sort of woman one should marry.
It was only natural that her marriage plans fell through.
A document was pushed across the table, and the man seated opposite her withdrew his well-defined hand.
Chen Yunqing quickly skimmed it, her expression turning to surprise. "Why did you choose me?"
The diamond-studded fountain pen in his hand spun around, glinting brilliantly. His profile looked both refined and distant. He lifted his eyelids lazily. "Why wouldn't I? We aren't going to fall in love anyway." He sounded utterly nonchalant.
Thinking of the things about them that had to remain hidden, Chen Yunqing understood. This was only a fake marriage in which they each got what they needed.
Pei Xu, the newly established heir of the Pei family in Wugang, is aloof and arrogant, and never gets close to women.
Then news broke that he had secretly married.
Faced with questions, he kept a calm, impassive expression and answered each one with, "No comment." Beneath the layer of ice, his irritation was hard to conceal.
Everyone was certain the marriage wouldn't last.
But not long afterward, Pei Xu, a workaholic, left early for once and even stopped going out to unwind. He said, "My wife is afraid of the dark, so I have to get home early," leaving everyone stunned.
A friend later told Chen Yunqing about it.
Thinking of the way he played his role in bed, she smiled. "He's quite the actor."
Later on,
Chen Yunqing thought that she and Pei Xu were simply strangers in public and a perfect match in private, no more than sex partners.
She never expected that, the more they slept together, the more of her heart she would put into it.
Little scene:
Her ex-fiancé came all the way to her home, humbly begging her to get back together.
There was only a door between them.
Pei Xu wrapped an arm around her and pinned her against the back of the door, thrusting in time with the knocking. Beneath his rimless, gold-rimmed glasses, his cool black eyes were clouded with red-hot desire.
Just as they were about to reach the peak, he actually opened the door a crack and looked down at the person outside.
"What is it? ... Ah."
Then, in a hoarse, cold voice, he said, "Wait until you've finished your cigarette. Your aunt can't stand the smell of smoke."
You wrapped all your love in cellophane and gave it to me.
It filled the night with a heady fragrance.
