Marriage First, Love Later

The full text is complete. My new novel, “Xiangshan Xunfeng,” has been released.
[Part 1]
After graduating, Wen Yang did two things.

First, she married the grandson of her grandfather’s old friend. It was said that the man she married was incredibly influential in Hong Kong, the top candidate to head a century-old family—Jiang Jifeng. He was handsome and refined, with captivating yet ruthless eyes, and a reserved demeanor.

He was the top man every woman in Hong Kong wanted to marry.

Wen Yang thought to herself: The more composed a man appears on the surface, the more promiscuous he is behind the scenes. She was certain he was a master of seduction. Fortunately, he wasn’t too invested in the marriage. He was in Hong Kong, she was in Beijing, and they could maintain a complete absence of contact after their marriage.

Second, she found a job in Beijing. The company was newly established, but the salary was high, and the boss was said to have a powerful background.
However, on the day the new president took office, Wen Yang learned that this powerful boss was none other than her promiscuous husband.

[Part Two]

Jiang Jifeng is a shrewd strategist in the business world, decisive and uncompromising. Gentle, gentlemanly, calm, and self -possessed are his hallmarks. In his thirty years of life, the first absurd thing he did was agree to his grandfather’s arranged marriage to his old friend’s daughter.

When a friend asked him what he thought, he lit a cigarette, nonchalantly saying, “Let it be. She’ll get impatient and file for divorce.”
He was cold and ruthless, treating marriage as a business transaction.
He didn’t invest, he didn’t take initiative, so she would naturally withdraw her investment.
However, Jiang Jifeng, who was always so meticulous in everything, repeatedly miscalculated when it came to Wen Yang.

Later,
Wen Yang made an extra cup of coffee and casually gave it to Jiang Jifeng.
Jiang Jifeng: “It’s just a contract marriage; you don’t need to care about me too much.”

Later still,
Wen Yang was having dinner with her colleagues, a minute late.
Jiang Jifeng: “Can’t you at least show me some concern?”

And then,
Wen Yang, who was supposed to go on a three-day business trip, was cornered in her bedroom by Jiang Jifeng.
Jiang Jifeng kissed her ear, his voice low and husky, and said, “Three days, that’s so long.”
He couldn’t stand it anymore.

[Mini-drama]
Wen Yang was staying in Jiang Jifeng’s room. That day, she mistakenly thought he hadn’t come home and video-chatted with her friend, complaining about Jiang Jifeng’s various obsessive-compulsive habits. At the end, her friend said, “He’s so handsome, just one look at his face and you’ll be fine.”
Wen Yang chuckled and said, “Haven’t you heard the saying?”
— “Handsome and charming.”

Later, Jiang Jifeng showed Wen Yang what it meant to be
— “Handsome and charming.
” Jiang Jifeng: “What are you tonight?”
Wen Yang was on the verge of tears: “Tonight I’m the school beauty, sob sob, you’re the school beauty’s bodyguard.” 1. SC

(same as above), the male and female leads are initially indifferent to each other, imperfect, each with their own motives, but become incredibly sweet later on.
2. All sweet.

Next book: “Xiangshan Xunfeng”
Those familiar with Lan Zhuofeng know that Master Lan has a white moonlight in his heart. He provides her with good food and drink, keeping her hidden away for four years. Finally, upon graduation, that canary kicked him to the curb.

No one can mention that woman’s name in front of him.

Until one day, that woman reappears in Xiangshan Ao.

–

Meng Xun, during his freshman year, accidentally entered Jinsha. From afar, he saw a man sitting on a genuine leather black sofa, his legs crossed with an air of nobility, his thin lips biting a card, his narrow eyes staring at the person opposite him. He pinched the corner of the card and removed it from his lips, revealing three Kings on the table. He said calmly and mercilessly, “I’m not trying to prove anything, but you played really badly.” “

Arrogant and disdainful of others,” was Meng Xun’s first impression of him.

Her friend said, “He’s quite influential in Xiangshan’ao; everyone calls him Master Lan.”

He was the respected Master Lan of Xiangshan’ao, unrestrained and free-spirited.
She was an ordinary person among the masses at A University, aloof and well-behaved.

The two were worlds apart.

She thought they would never cross paths, but she never expected them to be together.
Even more unexpectedly, she took the lead in this relationship, dumping Lan Zhuofeng.

–

The next time she saw Lan Zhuofeng was when her company required her to travel to Macau.

Without her, Lan Zhuofeng continued to thrive, full of vigor and ambition, still the Master Lan whom everyone respected and feared.

She also thought he had long since moved on.

But one day, the man lost control, cornering her on the corner of the boat, clinging to his last shred of dignity, gritting his teeth as he asked, “Four years, did you ever love me?”

“Four years, I lied to you.” She smiled faintly, her eyes devoid of any joy: “
Gambling breeds madmen, love breeds fools. Is Master Lan mad or foolish?”

“Say you love me,” Lan Zhuofeng’s eyes reddened, his voice humble, pleading with her with his eyes closed, “Say you loved me.”

[IV]

Later, on a mountaintop in Xiangshan’ao, Lan Zhuofeng spent a fortune building a kingdom solely for Meng Xun, naming it
—Xiangshan Xunfeng.

Some asked Lan Zhuofeng if it was worth it.

He smiled gently, watching Meng Xun walk towards him from afar, his eyes smiling, his voice low: “Meng Xun said she was lonely, that nothing in this world lasts forever. I want to be with her and tell her that my love for her is eternal. I want to give her my ideal kingdom, and she will be my eternal Queen.” 1

: The male lead is more humble than the female lead.
