Seven months after Shi Miao and Min Ting registered their marriage, they finally moved in together. At that time, the two still weren’t very familiar with each other.... more>>

Their colleagues were full of curiosity. Coming from an average family, how had she managed to marry into a prestigious family in Beijing’s elite circles? And how had she made Min Ting insist on marrying no one but her?

There was no such thing as “no one but her.” The marriage was merely a convenient arrangement, devoid of love.

Before the blind date that led to their engagement, the only interaction Shi Miao had ever had with Min Ting was years ago during a game of Truth or Dare, where she had kissed him on a dare.

But because so much time had passed, and they hadn’t known each other back then, he no longer remembered her.

Min Ting had only one criterion for his future spouse: she must not love him.

He didn’t have feelings to offer in return, and marriage, to him, was merely a way to placate his family.

Half a year after registering their marriage, they moved into their marital home. On the first night, he had a social engagement and returned home late.

Shi Miao had fallen asleep on the sofa in the living room. She seemed to be dreaming about something sad. Normally so composed and cool-headed, she was quietly sobbing in her sleep.

Min Ting called her name softly, “Shi Miao.”

She didn’t wake, and tears clung to the corners of her eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, he pulled her into his arms and comforted her for a long time. <<less

Before their arranged marriage, Min Xizhi learned that Fu Yanzhou had feelings for someone else. He had secretly inquired about that woman’s well-being, showing a tender side she had never seen before. During their wedding, he asked, “Are you sure you want to marry?” Min Xizhi smiled and replied, “Why not?” He said, “Are you willing to confine yourself in a marriage devoid of emotions, only for the sake of benefits?” She didn’t want that, so she would make him fall in love with her and witness his tender side once again.... more>>

However, two years into their marriage, she still couldn’t make him like her. He remained cool and distant. Min Xizhi decided to end her obsession and absurdity towards Fu Yanzhou, presenting him with divorce papers.

Fu Yanzhou hesitated, but ultimately signed them. Concerned, he asked, “What are your plans now?” Min Xizhi didn’t reply aloud, thinking to herself, “From now on, I’ll no longer secretly love you and forget about you.”

After the divorce, Fu Yanzhou inexplicably couldn’t let go of Min Xizhi. He asked his secretary, “What has Xixi been up to lately?” Pausing for a moment, he continued, “How is she doing emotionally?” Secretary: “I heard she’s been going on blind dates.”

Fu Yanzhou fell silent.

A few weeks later, Min Xizhi confronted him, “Why did you ruin my blind dates?” Fu Yanzhou: “I’m sorry for what happened in the past.” He said in a low voice, “Xixi, would you like to start over with me?” Min Xizhi was momentarily stunned. “There’s no need. I’ve already moved on.”

Fu Yanzhou said, “It’s okay if you’ve moved on. I’ll keep you in my heart.”

In the eyes of others, she’s a proud and spoiled young lady, and the one thing Fu Yan Zhou dislikes the most is someone with a proud personality like hers. She was the one who proposed the arranged marriage, thinking that Fu Yan Zhou would refuse.

After marriage, she suggested sleeping with her head on his arm. Fu Yan Zhou disagreed, “You slept with my left arm last night, and it’s affecting my golf swing today.”

Min Xi said, “Then I’ll sleep on your right arm tonight.”

Fu Yan Zhou: “…” He pointed to the other side of the bed, “Sleep over there.”

Min Xi’s self-esteem was hurt, so she lay down with her back to him. Fu Yan Zhou sighed and pulled her back into his embrace, offering his arm for her to rest on.

After two years of marriage, Min Xi felt that she still couldn’t make Fu Yan Zhou fall in love with her; he only indulged her. She decided to end her years of infatuation with Fu Yan Zhou and handed him a divorce agreement.

Fu Yan Zhou hesitated for a long time, but eventually signed it and asked, “What are your plans now?”

Min Xi didn’t respond. But she thought to herself: I won’t secretly love you anymore; I’ll forget you.

After the divorce, Fu Yan Zhou couldn’t let go of Min Xi. One early morning, his secretary called him and nervously reported, “Min Xi has been busy with blind dates lately.” He thought he misheard, “Busy with what?”

Secretary: “Busy… with blind dates.”

When Min Xi was about to go on a blind date, Fu Yan Zhou intercepted her. She couldn’t believe that this man would actively pursue someone. He had flown back from another city in the middle of the night and appeared at her doorstep early in the morning. He looked at her and said, “Xi Xi, do you want to start over with me?”
