[Marriage first, love later | Love grows over time | Age difference]
1.
The craziest thing I did at the beginning of summer was to stop the black Bentley on a rainy night.
"Fu Yanyu, I want to marry you."
The car window was lowered, and a chiseled profile came into view.
The man's unhurried voice came out: "Ms. Xia, I am not a philanthropist, let alone anyone's spare tire."
At the beginning of Xia Sui, he raised a smile that was destined to win.
"Rather than letting others decide who you want to marry, it's better to take the initiative into your own hands."
"And I'm the right one for you."
Fu Yanyu was silent for a few seconds and asked: "The reason."
"I can help you deal with Fu Jichen." Xia Suichu pinched the corners of his clothes tightly, his nails digging into his palms.
Fu Jichen is his half-brother and her ex-boyfriend who has been in love with her for many years.
But on the eve of the engagement, he cheated on her.

At the beginning of Xia Sui's life, everything went smoothly, and he was supported and pampered by his family as he grew up.
But he stumbled emotionally.
In anger, she approached Fu Yanyu, the head of the Fu family who was famous for his calmness and self-control.
They got married in a hurry.
After the marriage, the two returned to Fu's house together.
"Introducing my wife, Sui Chu."
Xia Suichu held Fu Yanyu's arm, her cheeks slightly red.
Then, as she wished, she saw the shock flashing in her ex-boyfriend's eyes, and the words "Hello, sister-in-law" almost squeezed out from between her teeth.
In an instant, joy filled my heart.

Fu Jichen originally thought that Xia Suichu roped in Fu Yanyu to co-star in the play just to get revenge on him.
But later, everything changed.
After a family dinner, Fu Yanyu took Xia Suichu upstairs to rest on the pretext of feeling unwell.
The door was ajar, giving Fu Jichen a chance to see the truth.
He saw his eldest brother, who had always been calm and restrained, half-kneeling beside the bed.
Xia Suichu was lying down with a soft pillow behind her waist, her face flushed and her eyelashes moist.
She kicked him and said with a cry in her voice: "You bitch, you lied to me."
The talk of treating each other with respect as a guest, and the talk of self-restraint and courtesy, are all lies.
Men are all the same.
Fu Yanyu had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and comforted him softly: "Baby, please bear with me a little longer."
The scene in front of him was like a thorn in Fu Jichen's eyes.
He turned around silently and left quietly.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the black shadow outside the door disappearing, and Xia Suichu whispered, "He's gone."
Fu Yanyu didn't look up and just continued to kiss her.
"Ignore him."
"Let's continue."
