Description
Fu Ji Chen discovers that the woman who has been living with him for months and bossing him around is none other than Yu Qing, the youngest daughter of his business rival, the Yu family. Without hesitation, he personally orchestrates a dinner to expose her true identity. Yu Qing never expected Fu Ji Chen to witness the entire catastrophic fallout as her cover is blown. That night, she packs her belongings and moves out of his apartment. Fu Ji Chen stares at her for a long time: “Apologize to me, and I’ll forgive you.” Yu Qing smirks, “Shouldn’t it be you apologizing to me? Look what you did to my little disguise.” Fu Ji Chen: “…” He watches her play her manipulative games and personally drives her back to the Yu family home. Six months later, Fu Ji Chen and Yu Qing get married. Rumors spread in their social circle that Fu Ji Chen was forced into marriage due to an unexpected pregnancy. Friends come to persuade him, claiming Yu Qing deliberately concealed her identity to trap him with a child—a scheming woman not worth marrying. Fu Ji Chen replies: “I was the one who apologized. I was the one who actively pursued her. And I’m the one who wanted a child to bind her to me.” The first time Yu Qing met Fu Ji Chen was at a club tennis court, where she worked as a temporary coach. He tipped her generously. Their next encounter was in the workplace—she as a small legal department employee, and he as the CEO. After working late one night, a sudden downpour left her unable to hail a taxi. Fu Ji Chen offered her a ride. The road leading to her rental apartment was flooded, so they ended up at his place. She decided to forget everything that happened that night. Weeks later, they ran into each other at the company. Yu Qing greeted him casually: “President Fu.” Fu Ji Chen looked at her, “And your name?” “Yu Qing.” Fu Ji Chen nodded. Later, when Yu Qing leaned against him, she asked: “Did you really forget my name back then?” Fu Ji Chen replied: “No, I didn’t forget. That night, you mumbled your name while half-asleep, and I thought you said ‘Xu Xing.’ I searched the entire company but couldn’t find anyone by that name.” The female lead is a lawyer, aptly named, a stunningly beautiful woman who loves tennis. It’s love at first sight, and deeper affection upon their second meeting. A simple, light-hearted story. One-line summary: The bittersweet rise of a CEO. Theme: Love and redemption.

My Thoughts on Love and Him
"Love and Him" promised a rollercoaster of emotions, and I wasn't disappointed. This novel dives headfirst into the complexities of love, trauma, and family dynamics, all wrapped up in a compelling arranged marriage storyline. While it wasn't perfect, the journey was definitely worth taking.
First Impressions
Initially, I found the pacing a little jarring. The story jumps around a bit at the beginning, and some scenes felt rushed, leaving me wanting more depth. However, I quickly realized that the author was setting the stage for something bigger, and as I continued reading, the narrative became much smoother and more engaging.
What Works Well
The heart of this novel lies in its characters, particularly the female lead. She's not your typical damsel in distress; she's independent, a little unhinged (in the best way possible!), and fiercely protective of herself. Her fear of commitment, stemming from her parents' failed marriage, is palpable and makes her journey all the more relatable. The male lead is equally compelling. He's understanding, patient, and genuinely respects her boundaries. His desperation to win her over, once he falls for her, is both hilarious and endearing.
I also appreciated the family dynamics explored in the story. The side characters were well-developed, and their own relationships added depth and richness to the overall narrative. Seeing them support and tease each other created a heartwarming sense of belonging. The ending, while a tad cringey, still left me with a smile on my face.
Areas of Concern
While I thoroughly enjoyed the novel, the initial pacing issues did detract from the overall experience. A bit more polish in the early chapters could have made a significant difference.

Despite its minor flaws, "Love and Him" is a highly enjoyable read. The strong female lead, the understanding male lead, and the compelling family dynamics make for a captivating story. If you're looking for a romance novel with depth, humor, and a touch of unhingedness, I highly recommend giving this one a try. I'd rate it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
