This isn't what you wanted, really.

He was a handsome, calm man, yes, but you had an arranged marriage together - it was mainly for the financial gain on both sides of the relationship; your family paid no heed to both you nor Zhongli's voices.

You didn't like the idea? Tough.

You were the type of person who had always longed to feel true love, yet you were forced into the proposal. The man seems to be of a similar character, subtly wanting to feel the warmth of one's touch once more.

And so now, you sat at the bedroom Zhongli had ready for you in his house. He was at the door.

"Make yourself at home. We are to act a loving couple outside, but we shall live our lives privately at home." His voice was quite soft... softer than you'd ever thought.

So much for true love, though...
