A major scandal has rocked Jiangcheng: the eldest grandson of the city’s most powerful family, the Zhan family, has married a country bumpkin the Tang family brought back from the countryside.
A wild girl from the sticks and a disabled, consumptive invalid: they’re equally matched, a perfect pair!
But then the country girl transforms into a long-legged beauty with fair skin, and a secret identity for every occasion. Powerful figures flock around her, all vying for her favor.
The disabled, consumptive invalid gets back on his feet, too. He spends all day chasing his wife for kisses, cuddles, and pets, and, while he’s at it, driving people away, driving people away, and driving people away again…
Married life.
“Ah Chu, you said you’d never leave me.” Lord Chen, the terror of the underworld, clings to his wife’s slender waist and pouts.
Tang Chu rolls her eyes, her temper flaring. “Five times a day, at every meal, plus afternoon tea and a midnight snack. When will this ever end?”
He’s perfectly satisfied, his tone brazen. “It won’t. Anyone who dares take your life, I’ll wipe out their entire clan.”
