My Wife Is Twelve Years Younger Than Me

Wen Ting’an, thirty-three, is the quintessential charming playboy, notorious throughout the business world for his womanizing ways. His father, Wen Henian, has been urging him to settle down for years, but Wen Ting’an always brushes him off with the same excuse: “Give me a few more years to have fun.” Watching his son cycle through one woman after another, Wen Henian grows increasingly desperate. Then the Ban family is hit by a sudden financial crisis, leaving Mr. Ban with his hair turning white overnight. Wen Henian pays him a visit and offers to inject capital into the struggling business, on one condition: Mr. Ban must marry his daughter off to Wen Ting’an. Mr. Ban politely declines. “My eldest daughter, Ban Ruo, already has someone she loves.” Wen Henian smiles. “Don’t you have a younger daughter?” Mr. Ban shakes his head. “Ban Ban is only twenty-one. She’s too young.” Just outside the door, Ban Ban has overheard everything. She pushes the door open and steps inside, her voice soft but resolute. “Dad, I’m not a child anymore. My sister has someone she loves, so let me do it.” Ban Ruo is frantic, tears spilling down her cheeks. “Ban Ban, you have no idea what kind of man Wen Ting’an is!” “I know.” Ban Ban lowers her head, twisting her fingers nervously. “He’s a womanizer, but he’s still a member of the Wen family. He can help us. Dad, let me marry him.” Their first meeting takes place at the Beifang Hotel. Dressed like a little porcelain doll, Ban Ban looks soft and delicate, with fair skin and a sweet, quiet demeanor. She sits at the table without saying much, looking almost too innocent for the occasion. Wen Ting’an glances at her. A round face, almond-shaped eyes—she looks like a tiny kitten that hasn’t quite grown up yet. When his friends ask, “So, you’ve met your bride-to-be? What do you think?” He answers flatly, “She looks like a daughter I’m supposed to raise.” — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: My Wife Is Twelve Years Younger Than Me — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
