CompletedSynopsis: [Hong Kong Circle Young Master X Pretty Gentle "Girl-Baby"]
["Wolf and Rabbit" Trope / Marriage First, Love Later]
The Xie family fell from grace overnight, but their only daughter married into the wealthy old Liang family in Hong Kong. Everyone ridiculed old Mr. Xie's clever tactics, effectively becoming in-laws with his former arch-rival.
Only Xie Qingci knew that this was merely a transaction between old-fashioned families, each trying to extract the last drop of blood from the other. When the time was right, they would go their separate ways, and a divorce agreement would be the best outcome for her and Liang Jingzhuo.
Their first meeting was before they registered their marriage. The man's suit couldn't hide his dashing and elegant demeanor, his handsome eyes exuding a unique masculine charm. He looked at her and said plainly, "Miss Xie, I don't like being forced."
His expression clearly showed reluctance. She expected that their future days would be like the legendary "husband isn't home much, plenty of money to spend without worry." She thought that wasn't bad; a marriage of convenience didn't need too many entanglements.
However, from their wedding night onwards, the husband who "didn't like being forced" appeared at home punctually after work every day. Despite having no emotional foundation, after submitting their physical examination reports, all the intimate acts a couple should have were performed without fail.
He would famously say, "Being physically loyal to your partner is the most basic respect for marriage." Although it exceeded her expectations, she could accept it. After all, a compatible partner was rare.
Until one day, Liang Jingzhuo, as usual, bought an old item for her at an astronomical price at an auction. She was to repay him with intimate acts for the return of her lost treasure. In a moment of passion, the man discarded his contraception and whispered, "No more, A'Ci, let's have a baby."

Liang Jingzhuo was named Jingzhuo because on the day his mother gave birth in Jingzhao, there was a sudden heavy rain. Later, he held a secret: on another day of heavy rain in Jingzhao, he, tired of dealing with family-arranged blind dates, saw a figure walking with an umbrella in a misty alley, and thus met the love of his life.
