Before marrying Cheng Huaixu, Zhu Wuyu had only met him twice.
The first time was at her older sister Zhu Wushuang's graduation ceremony. The second was at his engagement banquet with Zhu Wushuang.
Back then, she called him brother-in-law.
But just one month later, he slipped a wedding ring onto her finger with his own hands.

Zhu Wuyu and her older sister, Zhu Wushuang, looked nearly identical. Their elders often joked that if the two covered their faces, no one could tell them apart.
When they were young, the sisters often played at impersonating each other, and no one ever caught on.
That is, until Zhu Wushuang vanished without a trace one month before the wedding.
To cover up the scandal, the family arranged for Zhu Wuyu to take her sister's place at the altar. Their lavish wedding became the talk of high society, though there was one blemish: in every photo that circulated, the bride's face was covered. Only her clear, bright eyes suggested that she was the eldest daughter of the Zhu family.
On their wedding night, she sat primly on the living room sofa as the lights along the entryway shone down one by one. The man loosened his groom's tie and walked toward her at an unhurried pace.
Zhu Wuyu nervously clutched her wedding dress and asked softly, "Where will I sleep tonight? I just checked, and there aren't any guest rooms."
The living room's enormous ceiling light illuminated the man's refined, noble bearing. His rugged, handsome face turned toward her, his gaze calm and unreadable. "A Yu, I never intended for us to be a married couple in name only."
That night, amid the lingering heat, he taught her what it meant to be truly married.
