Synopsis:
“Dual Male Leads”
A highly obtuse, vanity-obsessed CEO who loves makeup but is unfortunate-looking + A cold, sharp-tongued second-in-command who dreams of divorce.
Jiang You is plain-looking with a dull personality, yet he is the noble scion of A City’s business circle and the legitimate heir of the Jiang Group.
Having secretly admired Fu Jing for years, Jiang You mustered the courage to pursue him right before graduation, thinking he could marry him right after graduation.
Instead, he received a “nice guy” rejection.
No matter—he had money.
So Jiang You leveraged his family’s influence and Chaonengli (Money Power) to semi-force Fu Jing into marriage.
On their wedding night, Fu Jing kicked Jiang You so hard he broke three ribs. Eventually, they compromised and established a post-nuptial agreement: If Fu Jing still didn’t love Jiang You by age 30, they would divorce.
They were 22 at the time—eight years! Eight years!! Jiang You thought, even if love couldn’t grow over time, surely familiarity would breed affection?
But later, a terminal diagnosis shattered all Jiang You’s hopes and dreams.
He wouldn’t live to see 30.
——
The day Jiang You agreed to divorce, Fu Jing was overjoyed and asked, “What made you suddenly change your mind?”
Jiang You smiled bitterly: “I admit defeat, Classmate Fu Jing.”
Later, Fu Jing noticed Jiang You growing increasingly thin and asked, “Why are you getting skinnier?”
Jiang You: “I’m already ugly. I don’t want to get fat too.”
Fu Jing wanted to tell him to eat properly and stop losing weight, but having never spoken kindly to Jiang You, he ultimately just tossed out: “You look even worse when you’re thin.”
Years later, Fu Jing knelt on the ground: “Jiang You, let me be your dog for life.”
