As a socially anxious homebody, Tian Dian hardly ever left the house except to go to work. A seasoned fujoshi and homebody, she never imagined she would choke to death on popcorn at the age of twenty-four.
When she opened her eyes again, everything around her was dark, but she could vaguely hear a gentle voice outside.
Tian Dian realized she seemed to be inside someone's belly, and the thought utterly horrified her.
After she was born, her parents gave her the adorable name Qi Ye Youyou. She was the only girl in the richest family in Beichen.
Perhaps because her family was so wealthy, plenty of people set their sights on her, but none of them truly liked her. They only wanted her family's money.
In a society that prized scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants in that order, she was bullied by many noble young ladies for being born into a merchant family. But it was fine. She was rich!
The Crown Prince wanted to take her as a concubine. No way! She wasn't going to serve him. Wasn't he just after her money?
“How about marrying me? I don't covet your money. I only want to marry you. I swear I'll take no other wife in this life. I can make you The Outcast, second only to me and above everyone else~”
Qi Ye Youyou gazed at the devastatingly handsome face before her. Her heart pounded out of control, and she wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth. No, he was several years older than her!
“But haven't you heard that older men know how to treat a woman?” The man caressed her fair, soft cheek and coaxed her in a low voice. “Besides, I'm only seven years older than you, Youyou!”
She absolutely couldn't let his handsome looks deceive her.
Unfortunately, her mouth was always quicker than her brain!
She married him, the man the world called the God of Slaughter: the Regent Prince of Beichen, Zhou Sheng Zhenye.
