Inferior to the Dawn

"An evenly split marriage, 100% happiness."
Su Jin, the adopted daughter of the Su family, falls in love with her elder brother, Su Mubai, in her youth.
In the beginning, he promises her, "After you graduate from university, we will get married."
However, he ends up marrying someone else.
Later on, she gets busy attending blind dates and tries to enter an ordinary marriage with a heart that's nothing but cold and dead.
Jin Hengyuan is cold but handsome—he's her nth blind date.
The first time they meet, she wants to scare him away. "If you think it's suitable, we can get registered tomorrow!"
He smiles. "I'm going on a business trip tomorrow. I'll be there in the afternoon!"
In the afternoon, she becomes his wife.
...
She is a quiet woman who doesn't fight or argue.
He has no house, but she says it's fine.
When it comes to meals, she insists they split the bill evenly.
When it comes to sleeping, she insists on sleeping in separate beds.
When a woman clings onto him, she ignores her and turns to leave.
Even with his daughter clinging to him, she only frowns and tries to keep her composure.
A hidden marriage. No one knows that they are husband and wife. Nor does she care.
After being plotted against and sent to the police station, he comes to her rescue. Finally, he loses it and starts scolding her, "Must you be so stubborn? Why didn't you call me when something happened? Do you think I'm dead?"
She pouts indignantly. "Jin Hengyuan, do you treat me as your wife? If you do, why did you choose to get married in secret?"
His anger turns into a smile. Good, she's finally angry.
This love was finally no longer his one-man show.
...
Small skits:
"Jin Hengyuan, I want a divorce!"
"Reason!"
"You lied to me!"
"How did I lie to you?"
"You're clearly an attorney. When did you become an errand boy?"
"Aren't attorneys supposed to run errands for clients? I take on all kinds of cases. Isn't this considered an odd-job laborer?"
"…"
Oh, damn it. How did she marry such a bully of an attorney?

The Perfect Hidden Marriage

Zheng Kai wanted to get that project that was in the Su Corporation's hands.

Jin Hengyuan downed the glass of wine in one go. The smile on his face was icy cold as he recalled the scene of him calling Su Jin the night before.

Sigh. She did not take him seriously after all. She only had that Su Mubai in her heart.

"Brother Jin, you're… fine, right?"

Because of his silence, Changning asked carefully over the phone all of a sudden.

Jin Hengyuan went to pour the wine.

"That Su Jin and Su Mubai seem to have an extraordinarily deep relationship. Otherwise, Su Mubai wouldn't have given such a big project to the Zheng Corporation just to protect Su Musheng. I've asked around. This pair grew up together since they were young. They were really very close before…"

Changning was at a loss for words. After a while, he spoke up.

"Brother Jin, I just want to say this. With your qualifications, you can have any kind of woman you want. Let go of Su Jin. There are plenty of young ladies with clean family backgrounds for you to choose from. There's no need for you to suffer by courting a woman who has someone else in her heart. If you don't have feelings for her and are just playing around with her, I won't say these words either. But you're not the kind of person who likes to play around. I'm just afraid that you'll let another woman break your heart."

Jin Hengyuan smiled lightly and sat on the sofa.

"Oh, I understand. You're revealing all these things to me at once to dispel my intentions?"

"Heh… I can't hide anything from you."

The two of them exchanged a few more casual words.

After hanging up the phone, Jin Hengyuan sat in front of the laptop and casually put down the wine glass in his hand. With a move of his fingers, he opened an encrypted folder and entered the password. All the photos that popped up were of Su Jin.

He flipped through them one by one. The past seemed to be replaying in front of his eyes too, and there was a feeling that could not be let go just because he wanted to.

He enlarged one of the most beautiful pictures and rubbed his thumb over that brilliant smile for a long time. He murmured a line.

"Su Jin, you're the one who wanted to get married. Since you married me, you can only be with me. I won't let you go easily for the rest of our lives. Even if I have to be a villain, I won't hesitate…"

Before getting off work, Su Jin called Musheng and told him about Zheng Kai's withdrawal.

When Musheng heard this, he immediately shouted, "Sis, I'll find a chance to thank him. You're not allowed to go, and also, don't forgive him just because of this. He let you down. That is forever unforgivable."

That tone made Su Jin very concerned. This pair of brothers used to be respectful to each other, but ever since Su Mubai married another woman and after Musheng went to beat him up, their relationship was like fire and water. If she let him go thank Mubai, would they start fighting?
