After Marrying a Frail, Wealthy Woman, We Fell in Love

Marriage first, love later | Regret and redemption | Faked death

Gentle, sweet-natured, brilliant beauty X cold, obsessive playgirl who says, “It's just for fun”

Zhu Xichuan lost her parents when she was young. After finally getting her master's degree, with a bright future ahead, she was forced into marriage.

She had no choice but to swallow her humiliation and become the wife of a wealthy, partially disabled heir.

She heard the heir had come back from overseas after breaking her leg in a riding accident, and that when she flew into a rage, she whipped people with a riding crop.

Zhu Xichuan: Closes her eyes in despair.

Before the wedding, Zhu Xichuan knew that Qin Ling had suffered from chronic illness for years and probably wouldn't live much longer.

Zhu Xichuan hoped Qin Ling would die soon, so she could remain a widow and continue straight through her master's and doctoral studies.

Every day, Zhu Xichuan thoughtfully prepared Qin Ling's medication, took her outdoors into the cold wind, and personally handled everything for her.

Qin Ling watched Zhu Xichuan hold her medical records and smile gently, her eyes bright.

Was her little songbird really this concerned about her?

No one thought this marriage would last.

But who could have guessed that the eccentric, obsessive rich heir would bow her head for love, indulge Zhu Xichuan in everything, and shower her with gifts? Zhu Xichuan wanted a laboratory, and she got one. She wanted funding, and she got that too.

But whenever anyone asked, Qin Ling would say, “It's just for fun.”

“Just a way to pamper my little songbird.”

“Isn't that what she married me for?”

But Zhu Xichuan had always been used to being alone. She had never been treated with such care, and her frozen heart gradually began to thaw...

She thought she ought to build a life with Qin Ling. Qin Ling was where she belonged.

But who could have known that Qin Ling would die in the operating room?

Alone outside the operating room, Zhu Xichuan knelt and wept, begging Qin Ling to visit her in her dreams.

Just once.

After a sudden change of power within the group, Qin Ling was promoted to group president.

With tears still on her face, Zhu Xichuan began gathering Qin Ling's belongings, one by one.

The person who had coveted Zhu Xichuan for years no longer bothered to hide it, brazenly pulling her into an embrace.

“My foolish niece was killed by me. Now you're mine, baby.”

Suddenly, the front door was pushed open. Qin Ling entered the old house, followed by law enforcement officers. The culprit was taken into custody, leaving only Zhu Xichuan and the belongings at her feet.

Qin Ling, returned from the dead, appeared in the old house draped in white cloth.

Only then did Zhu Xichuan realize that Qin Ling had never trusted her.

The woman who had faked her death came forward and pinned Zhu Xichuan atop a pile of white cloth

Qin Ling's fingers rubbed against the wrist she held, while her lips brushed the prominent bones on the back of Zhu Xichuan's hand, kissing her palm inch by inch.

She pulled her dazed, weeping little wife into her arms and ran a hand over Zhu Xichuan's waist.

“Was that how she held you just now?”

But the only response Qin Ling received was a cold, “Let me go.”

Zhu Xichuan was truly exhausted.

Qin Ling had thought Zhu Xichuan was merely a beautiful songbird she'd kept.

Only after she left did Qin Ling realize she was the world's one and only treasure.

Coming next: My Ex's Cat After I Die

Younger, aloof artist Alpha x an especially easy-to-placate catlike heiress Omega

*The cat can have a false pregnancy, then a real one after becoming human

Rong Sheng and Fu Fenshui had been dating for seven years, but their compatibility was only 20%.

After the breakup, the Omega was tormented by her heat until she was in a wretched state, then fell from a cliff at the place where they had pledged their love.

When she opened her eyes again, she'd become a cat beside a trash can.

The long-haired calico was in a pitiful state. The cleanliness-obsessed heiress reeked of sour slop, and there was a bloody gash on her back.

In the bitter cold of the northern border, a pair of hands picked her up.

The filthy little cat was wrapped in a woman's arms. It was her ex-girlfriend.

Fu Fenshui: “Baby, does nobody want you either?”

The cat recoiled in shock. “Myaow!” Get lost!

Fu Fenshui graduated from C University School of Art. At a young age, she already had her own exhibition. Her talent was extraordinary; she was born for this line of work.

Her only flaw was that she came from a very poor family.

Everyone thought that after graduation, the heiress would sponsor her to study abroad.

Instead, Fu Fenshui took the initiative to break up with her.

Afterward, she promptly blocked her on every platform.

The cat dozed by the stove, perfectly detecting the unfaithful woman's gaze.

The moment the cat began hissing, the unfaithful woman started petting her.

“Baby, shall we go horseback riding tomorrow?”

The cat's tail tip quivered wildly, soothed by the pine-scented pheromones.

But why was her belly getting bigger?

[The cat can turn into a human]

[No angst, everyday life, a warm bed with a catlike wife]

[One-on-one romance, both leads are virgins]
