[Married First, Love Later] [□□] [Secret Crush Comes True] [Puppy Turns into a Wolf]
[Pretty, Sweet Girl X Cool, Down-to-Earth Guy]
Blurb, Version 1.0:
Before her zodiac year even arrived, Xia Mingran was already hit by bad luck. First, one of her investments went bust, then someone stole the credit for her work, and now she had been diagnosed with breast nodules.
Her best friend found a fortune-teller for her. After studying the signs, the fortune-teller declared that this was a harbinger of an unlucky zodiac year. There was only one way to ward it off: get married before the year arrived, and use romantic luck to drive away misfortune.
Her best friend said, "I've got a great guy I could introduce you to. Interested?"
Xia Mingran replied, "Send me his WeChat."
- Both parents deceased, monthly salary of 80,000, owns a home with no mortgage.
- Tongue-tied and dull, no good at charming women.
- Twenty-two years old.
Young and high-quality. Xia Mingran started chatting with the great guy.
Meeting in person didn't disappoint, either. He was very thoughtful and caring.
Though he was too embarrassed to hold her hand, and his palm got sweaty as soon as he did;
he was too embarrassed to hug her, and trembled nervously as soon as he did;
even more, he didn't dare kiss her, and went stiff all over as soon as he did...
But that was fine. She understood. A shy young man was bound to be nervous the first time. She would teach him properly in time.
The day before her twenty-fourth birthday, Xia Mingran and the great guy got their marriage certificate.
On their first night as newlyweds, Xia Mingran declared confidently, "Shall I teach you?"
The young man, usually so taciturn, silently pulled off his bath towel and pounced on her with a solemn expression. He held her with such force it was as if he wanted to meld her into his bones, biting and devouring her lips as though he wanted to consume her whole...
Waaah...
After a sleepless night, Xia Mingran realized that her best friend and Hang Yan had teamed up to fool her.
Only the part about his age was true. Everything else was a lie.
-
Hang Yan had designs on Xia Mingran from the very first moment he saw her.
Xia Mingran was the moon in the sky, while Hang Yan was dust on the ground.
Hang Yan knew he wasn't worthy of Xia Mingran, so he always kept his distance, hiding from her so she wouldn't see him. He was afraid of sullying her eyes.
He just never expected that one day, even humble dust would get a chance to touch the bright moon...

Later on.
Another night of overtime.
Xia Mingran had finished watching two dramas and browsing three shopping sites. As she debated whether to stay at the office and kill time or head home, a message from Hang Yan arrived.
- You're working late, so don't rush home.
- Unlike me, left alone in an empty house with nothing but thoughts of you.
