A Marriage Within Reach

[Sweet Romance + Obsessive Mogul in the Entertainment Industry x Carefree, Doted-On Young Heiress]

Everyone knows that Third Young Master Fu of Luocheng is refined and noble, arrogant and obsessive. But nobody knows that he has schemed and plotted every step of the way, all to win Nan Yan, the youngest daughter of the Nan family, who was once engaged to his nephew.

Nan Yan never expected that after one foot was already in the grave of marriage, someone would drag her back out. That someone was Fu Jingheng, the uncle of her former fiance.

Just as she was congratulating herself on escaping a pit of fire, he suddenly confessed with overwhelming force. "Will you marry me?"

She dodged him. "Uncle, you can't force a melon to be sweet."

"You'll find out if it's sweet once you pick it and eat it."

"And if it's bitter, what a waste to pick it. Why not let it keep growing on the vine?"

Later, he simply ripped the whole vine out and took it home, insisting, "A different place will help it grow."

Later still, her former fiance came to ask for another chance after realizing his mistake. As Nan Yan looked down on him and considered how to refuse, a cool, sharp voice drifted from behind her. "Your great-uncle's wife doesn't go back to an old flame."
