Marriage First, Love Later | Older Man/Younger Woman | A Series of Playful Romances
Free-spirited heiress vs. composed, dignified man in power
Everyone in their circle knew that Yu Qingyuan, the eldest daughter of the Yu family, had bright, beautiful eyes and delicate features. She was gorgeous, and her family background was every bit as impressive. Yet this beauty, raised in the lap of luxury, ended up marrying Xie Youli.
Xie Youli, head of the Xie Group, was decisive and ruthless in business and showed no interest in women. He was difficult for ordinary people to approach, and was renowned for his cold, heartless nature.
The two had barely known each other before their families forced them together in a marriage alliance.
Barely a month after the wedding, Xie Youli went to New York to expand the company overseas. Their long-distance marriage meant they hardly ever saw each other. As Yu Qingyuan put it, "If I'd known I'd be left home alone, I should've spent every night partying before the wedding, with a different man each time."
The more Yu Qingyuan thought about it, the angrier she got. This marriage was utterly pointless. She might as well end it early and get her freedom back.
When Xie Youli received his wife's notice that she wanted a divorce, he couldn't understand why. When his friend heard about it, he twisted the knife and said, "What else could it be? Congratulations, your wife has found someone new."
To save their marriage, the usually aloof and dignified young master Xie had no choice but to lower himself and embark on an endless quest to win his wife back.
He sent gifts to the villa by the mountain-load, made time to watch her favorite movies with her, and spent six hours on a plane just to get to her side and say in person,
"I'm sorry. Ever since the day we got married, I've never wanted a divorce. If you're thinking about it, I must have done something wrong. I'm sorry. Give me some time to make it up to you, okay?"

One day, Yu Qingyuan showed up at Queen Bar and unexpectedly ran into a popular young star. As they chatted, paparazzi caught them in a compromising situation.
The next day, an intimate photo of the two topped the trending searches. Yu Qingyuan suddenly found herself at the center of a headline: "Breaking! The Xie and Yu couple may be having marital problems. The eldest Yu daughter meets her lover late at night."
After seeing the news, a whole crowd of busybodies around her, along with both families' parents, nearly blew up her phone.
Meanwhile, Yu Qingyuan was sitting on someone's lap. Her limpid eyes shone with tenderness as her slender, pale fingers tugged at the man's tie. Leaning toward him, she explained softly, "If I told you I was discussing work with him at the bar, would you believe me?"
Xie Youli's cool gaze settled on Yu Qingyuan's almost aggrieved face. His long fingers clasped her chin, his thumb brushing her red lips. Behind his glasses, his eyes were dark and cold, and his voice carried a chilling edge. "How am I supposed to believe you? Baby, you've done this before."
!!!
Only then did Yu Qingyuan feel the urge to run, but he had already clamped both her pale wrists in his grasp.
She whimpered silently, tears welling up in her eyes as she thought to herself: Had she just brought this on herself?
