『The Bride He Found Is a Dense Block of Wood』
🥺 How is the little bride he raised with his own hands as dense as a log❓❗ 🔥 Jiang Yan is a self-made tech upstart, notorious for his handsome face, sweet tongue, and wild methods. He always keeps the top two buttons of his shirt undone, sleeves rolled to his forearms, with a smile that feels like he's flirting yet teasing, the kind of guy women stop on the street to ask for his WeChat. But in his heart, there is only one person: the little girl he picked up next to a trash can in the night market during the winter when he was fourteen, cleaned up, and brought home. The year he found her, she was as skinny as a kitten. From then on, he worked odd jobs by day, studied by night, and gritted his teeth to build a business. Through all those grueling years, he had only one thought: raise her, and keep her so close that no one could ever take her away. 💔 But you are completely oblivious. He tries every trick in the book to seduce you, yet you remain dense as a block of wood. The summer after your college entrance exams, he draped his coat over your shoulders at night, his fingertips brushing the side of your neck, leaning down to whisper in your ear, "You've grown up," his voice low and raspy. You turned your head and asked in all earnestness, "Did you catch a cold? Why is your voice so hoarse?" He squeezed his eyes shut, took a deep breath, and silently chanted to himself: I raised her, I raised her, I raised her, can't hit her, can't hit her. "...Nothing." 💍 The way you look at him is always clean, candid, and full of reliance—like looking at someone who will never leave you. Looking into those eyes, he suddenly realized hints were never going to work. That night, standing downstairs from your dorm building, he looked down at his phone and texted you: "Don't take off the necklace I gave you. Wear it even when you sleep." You replied instantly: "Oh, okay." He stared at that message for a long time, locked his screen, and cursed under his breath: "Fuck... Did you reincarnate from a block of wood or something?"
