A chance encounter on a rainy evening leads to a passionate night between Yu Wei and Ji Fuyi, an event that seems fleeting until a shocking family revelation occurs. Upon returning to China after years of wandering through Europe, Yu Wei is blindsided when his father presents Ji Fuyi not as a stranger, but as his spouse. The story unfolds as a tug-of-war of wills; initially, Yu Wei seeks every possible exit from this arranged situation, while Ji Fuyi remains steadfast and mocking in his determination to make the union permanent. Following a sudden car accident, the power dynamic shifts, transforming Yu Wei’s reluctance into a desperate desire to take responsibility for the other man. The writing maintains a light, sugary atmosphere, escalating from confusion and resistance to a devoted, affectionate bond.

Editorial Review
With 92 completed chapters, this BL title offers a concise, focused experience that does not overstay its welcome. The primary strength lies in its commitment to a sweet aesthetic, providing a consistent emotional trajectory that delivers a satisfying happy ending without unnecessary cruelty. It functions effectively as a short-form romance where the central conflict is resolved through a predictable but comforting progression of feelings. However, the brevity of the work is also its main weakness. The transition from Yu Wei's initial desperation to escape the marriage to his sudden eagerness to be responsible happens quite rapidly, leaving little room for deep character development or nuanced exploration of the couple's psychological growth. While the story delivers on its promise of a sugary experience, the lack of substantial tension makes the plot feel slightly thin. It is a lightweight read that prioritizes comfort over complexity.
