[Blurb 1]
On the day of her interview, Fang Hao saw the man sitting in the middle of the panel.
Lu Huaixing, a young heir from a wealthy family in Hong Kong City. Rumor had it that instead of inheriting his family's publicly listed company, he insisted on coming to the mainland to start a tech company. Still young, he had already become a renowned aloof beauty in the tech industry.
He saw her too.
The moment their eyes met, someone noticed something was off and asked, "President Lu, do you know each other?"
Lu Huaixing replied without a hint of courtesy, "No."
Fang Hao was silent. They knew each other very well.
Just half a month ago, their families had insisted that they get married.
[Blurb 2]
Lu Huaixing thought the Lu family had lost their minds, insisting that Fang Hao marry him. At the same time, he couldn't help admiring how skillfully Fang Hao had won the Lu family's praise.
So on the day they registered their marriage, Lu Huaixing looked as gentle as ever, though his eyes were cool and indifferent. He delivered his verdict: "I'm sorry, Miss Fang. I can't give you the happy married life you're hoping for. I can't be the perfect husband, either."
"Let's just keep our distance."
Fang Hao was stunned.
After that, they were surprisingly in sync about hiding their marriage at work. Even when they got home, they acted as if the other didn't exist.
They treated each other with polite courtesy, like strangers.
Bonus Scene:
On Singles' Day, the younger employees secretly organized a get-together for all the single people in their industry, behind their respective bosses' backs.
All the unmarried men and women listed in the group's records gathered in a private room, and Fang Hao was invited too, despite hiding the fact that she was married to her boss.
Just as the atmosphere was heating up,
Lu Huaixing suddenly appeared in the private room. The entire room fell silent, and his sharp gaze fixed straight on Fang Hao.
Someone asked Fang Hao, "President Lu seems to have been staring at you. Do you know each other?"
Remembering what he said before they registered their marriage, Fang Hao denied it. "I don't know him..."
But then Lu Sicheng, who was usually cold and stern, spoke in front of everyone in their industry like a perfect husband. "Wife, you left your lipstick in my car."
Fang Hao: ...
That night,
Lu Sicheng pinned Fang Hao against the door.
"A singles' party, a matchmaking event. You said you were single, and you said you didn't know me..."
He smiled. "When you asked me to play doctor and give you a shot last night, why didn't you say you didn't know me then?"
Theme: I love you.
