A trial marriage full of tension, sweet everyday life

When Qizhiqiao was forced to accept the marriage her family had arranged for her, she had just ended a disastrous relationship.
At her first meeting with her intended, Tang Heting, she deliberately made a series of outrageous demands:
"Let's try being married for three months. Given the nature of my work, no matter how busy you are, you'll have to arrange your schedule around mine."
"If you satisfy me, you can't interfere with my work after we get married. And if we have children someday, they'll take my surname, whether they're boys or girls."
"Most importantly, I want a grand, spectacular wedding. For at least the next ten years, it should be the textbook example of a wedding of the century."
She only wanted to scare him off. Instead, the man across from her, impeccably dressed in a suit and exuding effortless elegance, calmly extended a hand.
"Then let me start by wishing Miss Qi a pleasant trial marriage."

Before she turned eighteen, Qizhiqiao had been an innocent girl who took "I'd rather marry late than marry without love" as her life's motto.
One failed relationship was enough to hurt her deeply. She no longer dared hope that she could find the dream she'd lost in a marriage of mutual convenience between two families.
When the time came, she assumed their trial marriage had reached its end and proposed they call it off with breezy confidence. "If ten is a perfect score, I'd give you a 9.9. I'm taking off 0.1 so you don't get too full of yourself."
She acted as if she had no regrets, but the man responded with a silent, desperate loss of control.
He tore off his gentlemanly mask and, for the first time, paid no heed to her feelings, kissing away the tears at the corners of her eyes again and again. "After giving me such a high score, can you really bear to leave me just like that?"

The night was clear and calm. Tired of the same old conversations at the banquet, he stepped outside for some air.
On a garden bench, a heartbroken young woman clutched her phone and cried. Yet when she saw him, the first thing she said was, "Are you lost, sir? The banquet hall is ahead on your right."
He found it amusing. How could anyone still have the energy to think of others at a time like this?
Later, she stumbled into his life and said despondently that she'd lost the ability to love.
But he remembered that night, which he had kept to himself all this time.
His little Cupid had been born knowing how to love.
He was lucky enough to be chosen as the one who could spend her whole life by her side.
