Born into a prestigious family and possessing one-quarter noble blood, Wu Chunhe has a beautiful, delicate face. Unfortunately, he's a frail beauty who has to rely on his family to support him.

But as the times change, the Wu family gradually falls into decline, and Wu Chunhe is forced into a marriage alliance with a nouveau riche man ten years his senior.

On the day Wu Chunhe moves in, the villa's lavish decor is covered in gold and silver, overflowing with money and tackiness.

His marriage partner, Lu Guihong, is handsome, with his suit collar carelessly open. He speaks bluntly and is, as expected, difficult to get along with. "This marriage benefits us both. I'm not interested in spoiled kids like you."

Wu Chunhe lowers his eyes to the agreement and nods, his face pale.

Lu Guihong built his fortune from nothing, becoming one of A City's most famous tycoons in just ten years. People couldn't help gossiping about his humble origins, calling him a nouveau riche who could never be respectable. Now that he has married into the prestigious Wu family, those whispers have finally died away.

But with his humble upbringing and cold, unyielding nature, and with his delicate, frail spouse Wu Chunhe no longer under the Wu family's care, people assume the young man's life won't be easy.

Until a grand banquet one day...

They had imagined Wu Chunhe would look haggard and gaunt, but his complexion is rosy and he no longer seems as frail as before. And the cold Lu Guihong appears to have become a different person, transformed into a doting father. He replaces wine with warm water, asks for less sugar in the desserts, and even has his assistant stay by the young man's side to look after him.

Someone teases Lu Guihong for treating his spouse like a child. Lu Guihong takes it as a compliment and becomes even more attentive.

Everyone: An old house catching fire is a fire you can't put out...

Worried about their child, the Wu parents bring gifts to visit, hoping only that President Lu won't be too hard on Wu Chunhe. They had prepared themselves for the worst, but things seem rather different from what they imagined...

The bare villa courtyard they saw in an earlier video has been renovated into a quiet, secluded medieval garden, quaint and elegant. A beautiful young man is reclining on a swing in the pavilion, while President Lu, now the head of a publicly listed company, kneels beside him, gently drying Wu Chunhe's damp hair with a towel.

He doesn't seem to think this is beneath his status at all.

*

Lu Guihong has a peculiar habit: he likes adorning Wu Chunhe with gold jewelry, especially in bed.

Once, Wu Chunhe was so furious that he blurted out, "You're lewd, shameless, and a hypocrite pretending to be a good person..."

Before he could finish, Lu Guihong silenced him with a kiss and shamelessly said, "Baby, that's how nouveau riche people are. Too late to regret it now."

The Sweet Omega Marries a Powerful Enigma

Lin Shengsheng is a traditional omega, sweet and soft. His childhood dream is to marry and have children.

But something goes wrong with his glands during his second differentiation. His pheromones are faint, unable to satisfy an Alpha's needs, and he's unlikely to have children.

His marriage partner immediately breaks off their engagement. Lin Shengsheng, once cherished for being obedient, becomes a hot potato whom his father quickly tosses to Fu Boting, who's returned from abroad after receiving medical treatment and is looking for someone to marry.

Fu Boting is an Enigma. Enigmas usually prefer strong Alphas and S-rank omegas, who can better withstand their pheromones and become pregnant.

With red, swollen eyes, Lin Shengsheng tells Fu Boting the truth, expecting to be rejected again.

The Enigma simply says, "I know."

Then he gives Lin Shengsheng a black card for his living expenses.

Lin Shengsheng gradually understands that this, too, is a transaction.

Fu Boting needs a wife.

A traditional, obedient omega wife who can serve as a convenient shield.

The Fu family is a century-old clan that has flourished for generations.

News spreads that Fu Boting has married an omega with abnormal glands.

Rumors fly in private...

They say Fu Boting has successfully seized power, but the main branch is full of uncles and other relatives, with a complicated web of loyalties. Though Fu Boting is an Enigma, he suffers from pheromone recognition disorder, which makes it hard for him to get close to anyone and leaves his rut highly unstable. He's unfit to shoulder the responsibility and desperately needs to marry to silence the critics.

Everyone waits for the spectacle. What will happen when two sick people get married?

But as they wait, they see no sign of Lin Shengsheng becoming depressed, nor Fu Boting losing control because of his illness.

Instead, a tabloid publishes a photo. The omega, who was supposedly unlikely to conceive, has a slight bump to his belly, while the dignified, mature Enigma stands protectively beside him.

Everyone knows this omega has trouble conceiving. There's only one explanation for his condition:

An Enigma's pheromones are more potent than an Alpha's, and he forcibly impregnated him.

The man's hand obscures the omega's face completely. All anyone can see are Fu Boting's dark eyes, fixed on the camera with a warning glint.

Fu Boting, whose very bones seem to hold nothing but money and power, has actually fallen in love.
