[Sweet Romance Between Two Devoted Partners, Long-Planned Pursuit, Serene Qipao Shop Owner Older Sister x Possessive, Unhinged CEO Younger Brother]
Mu Yuci woke up to find that she was a married woman.
Not only had she moved into her husband's home, she'd taken over his bed and him, too.
Her unfamiliar husband was still eager for more. He pressed against her waist, tender and wicked, a string of prayer beads around his wrist. He wouldn't slaughter gods or Buddhas, only cling to her.
“Be good, sis. From now on, I'm the only one allowed to spoil you.”

Everyone said Huo Yunting, the mad and violent man of the capital, was a lunatic. They didn't know he reserved all his tenderness for one person.
People wondered, “Doesn't Mr. Huo beat his wife? What terrible sins did she commit in her past life to end up stuck with such a disaster?”
But that woman was fiercely protective of him. “My husband is gentle and considerate. He's only a little possessive, that's all.”
Everyone laughed. Huo Yunting, gentle and considerate?
Sure. Adults are good at swallowing their pain and pretending everything's fine...

Later, someone asked in an interview, “Mr. Huo, why did you choose Miss Mu for a whirlwind marriage?”
Huo Yunting replied, “It wasn't a whirlwind marriage. I pursued Mrs. Huo for over a year.”
Word had it that the young master Huo was kicked out of bed by his wife that very night.
Mu Yuci thought about it and got even angrier. “For that whole year, I was the one pursuing you!”
The arrogant young master Huo sat outside the door hugging a pillow. “Boo-hoo, I'm the real disaster...”
“I'm the one swallowing my pain and pretending everything's fine, all right!”
