A Whirlwind Wedding: The Heiress Runs Away

He is a business prodigy: ruthless, calm, and sharp-witted, always high above everyone else. Whenever a woman throws herself at him, he coldly pushes her away, never giving in to temptation.

She is the daughter of a prominent family, but her lifelong dream is to leave the wealthy world behind, marry an ordinary man, and live a quiet, steady life.

On the very day they were supposed to register their marriage, she sees the ordinary man she chose after careful consideration arm in arm with a rich heiress, leaving her to face everyone's ridicule and contempt. It turns out the whole thing was a scheme.

Just then, he appears out of nowhere, dressed in ordinary clothes, and rescues her from disaster. Naturally, he becomes her brand-new husband. He treats her with endless tenderness and spoils her every way he can, even helping her take off her clothes, as if he really were her husband.

When she discovers the glittering truth beneath his ordinary disguise, she makes a run for it.

“Xie, Cheng, Hao?” She glances at the red marriage certificate and casually reads out the name of the man she's just met.

“Don't call me by my name. Just call me hubby.”

“I mean, my crisis is over now, so let's... get a divorce.”

“Don't you think you should thank me properly?”

“Buy you dinner?”

“Forget the dinner.”

He looks her up and down. “That sounds like a pretty good idea.”

A villa halfway up the mountain, the dead of night, not a soul in sight.

“Darling, there's no one here.” A certain man gazes at her tenderly, like a puppy eyeing a bone.

“But you're here!” In the darkness, a certain woman gives the eager man a dangerous look.

“It's too lonely here with just the two of us.”
