Shan Qihuan was born in the complicated and wealthy Shan family, with many brothers and sisters, he has outstanding abilities, less than thirty years old but already the CEO of a listed company, he is the best among the young generation of the Shan family.
Because of his father’s absurd dream, their family had to choose one person to marry a prodigal son who was without learning or skills, smoking, drinking, and clubbing, who fight for the affections of a man at the banquet and was pushed into the swimming pool, this man is said to be the only grandson of his father’s late old friend.
After a calculation by a certain magic stick, Shan Qihuan was selected among the many brothers.
Scoff.
After he gets married, he will definitely neglect the prodigal son, no pretense, let the other side retreat in face of difficulties.

On the wedding night, Shen Yuhan stood nervously in front of Shan Qihuan, ready to unbutton his suit.
Shan Qihuan, who was very resistant to getting close to others, wanted to wave his hand away, but when he gently held the other’s hand, the latter raised his head.
Shen Yuhan blushed slightly and asked him softly: “Husband, do you want to rest?” That’s what the people here call their husbands, right?
Being looked at by the beauty with clean eyes, Shan Qihuan took a deep breath: “Rest.”
So I persevered, hoping at some point the plot would actually develop but in all honesty, this has become exhausting to read.
I’m all for cute cry baby MCs who are vibrant and charming.
This MC is a crybaby who lacks all charm. All the author talks about is how virtuous he is as a wife and how beautiful he is. He has no desire for independence, the education he talks about is just basic understanding of how to live in a modern world and then don’t get me started on how he exists to put down the modern woman.
I started finding his coquettishness offensive because it was written at the expense of independent female characters. His husband is supposed to be so intelligent yet has not straight out asked him why he’s so different? Not noticed the significant difference in his behaviour? Like common sense would tell you that trauma can trigger personality changes but not to the point of how the MC behaves.
This story is pretty much a traditional BG and the only satisfactory aspect I got from it is the showcasing of a male character written typically the way male authors write female characters.
Also I don’t get why authors always write the MC as so excessively virtuous that they cannot be active participants in the bedroom. There was a specific line that irked me to no end where the MC says he’s definitely not looking forward to the next time they sleep together. Like you might as well say that only one party is enthusiastic whilst the other feels like it’s rape.
This type of characterisation needs to stop. It’s exhausting.
