Deeply Entrapped: Married to a Psychopath by Contract

[Dual perspectives, reunion from the very beginning, a furious groveling arc, completely free]

[Cool, dignified, beautiful, powerful, tragic clan leader bottom (top-tier Omega) x obsessive, hot-tempered, intensely possessive, sinister CEO (modern man)]

Seven years ago, a fire completely burned away Chu Yilan's past, burying old wounds beneath the ruins.

His younger sister died in the flames. His unborn child was lost. Covered in injuries, Chu Yilan fled with his clan...

He thought that hiding in a fishing village would let him escape the world and live out his days in peace. But a fire at a photography studio awakened the deepest nightmare hidden in Chu Yilan's heart...

When the person from his nightmares appeared again, Chu Yilan planned to settle old scores and new ones alike. But to his surprise, his enemy Shen Yinglin said, "The Shen family has protected the Ruixue clan for generations. I will protect Chu Yilan until the end of my life."

The suffering Chu Yilan endured during those hellish days could never be erased. Faced with Shen Yinglin's belated devotion, Chu Yilan's face was full of hatred. "Who needs your protection? I have nothing for you but hatred and loathing. You disgust me."

To escape persecution by enemies led by the Yan family, uncover the truth behind his father's death, avenge his clan, and keep them from being slaughtered again, Chu Yilan was forced to enter into a marriage of convenience with Shen Yinglin...

Shen Yinglin came across a photo of Chu Yilan from his university days.

In the photo, he wore a white shirt and carried an art portfolio on his back. With a breeze brushing his face, he stood beneath a willow tree and smiled with extraordinary warmth.

Holding the photo, Shen Yinglin pushed open the bedroom door. He raised it, hesitated for a moment, then said:

"I don't think I've ever seen you smile like this."

Chu Yilan was putting a bandage over a hickey on his neck. His expression was calm.

"That's right. Ever since the moment I met you, I haven't been able to smile. So, can you give my smile back to me?"

From then on, Shen Yinglin worked every day to earn a genuine, radiant smile from Chu Yilan.

"He smiled three times today. I'll keep trying tomorrow..."
