An Nuan thought that she was going to have her happy ending, marrying the love of her life when the man left her on their wedding day. "Pei Zhi Yi, the moment you step into the elevator, it's over between us." An Nuan thought that she could stop her fiance from leaving, but that man still left for the other woman. The wedding hall was prepared and the guests had all arrived. With no groom beside her, An Nuan decided that she would marry anyone willing. “An Nuan, if you are willing, then how about considering me as your groom?” Unexpectedly, the young master of the Lin family, Lin Xiao Feng stepped forward to offer himself. An Nuan did not expect much from this marriage, especially when they both agreed that they were seeking to gain something through this marriage. Lin Xiao Feng needed someone as his wife in his political career. Meanwhile, she just needed to marry someone to get over Pei Zhi Yi. As someone who was disappointed by love, An Nuan no longer wanted to believe in love. She never thought that the marriage that she did not expect would turn out better than she had expected. Young Master Lin would pamper her and support her whenever she needed help. Wasn’t their marriage just for show? --- Cover Illustration commission by kirinlukis --- Shared universe with: 1.

Lin Xiao Feng turned away from An Nuan and looked at the teenage boys around them, letting An Nuan escape from that awkward atmosphere. He chatted with the boys while watching An Nuan through his peripheral vision.
His thought was on the scene at the center of the basketball court earlier.
An Nuan was so happy that she managed to shoot the ball into the hoop on the second try that she hugged him.
Lin Xiao Feng remembered how he froze the moment An Nuan's slender arms wrapped around his body. The sweet scent from An Nuan's shampoo wafted to his nose. It reminded him of sweet coconut.
He had almost thought that he was dreaming.
The hug lasted briefly.
But it does not matter.
What's important is… it was An Nuan who hugged him.
Lin Xiao Feng thought about his married friends' advice again.
It seemed that playing basketball was really useful.
