【Mind-reading + super strength + face-slapping + devoted couple + raising kids + zany comedy + love after marriage】
(An outwardly aloof, devoted mind-reading husband × a fierce, protective wife with super strength)
There was a butcher’s shop east of the city. The butcher’s daughter, Yue Zhen, was unbelievably strong and exceptionally fierce.
The butcher was at his wits’ end. Despite spending a fortune on countless matchmakers, he couldn’t arrange a single marriage for her.
Everyone in the city thought the girl would never marry in her entire life.
To everyone’s surprise, the famously flirtatious Prince of Xin, Pei Zhu, actually petitioned the emperor to marry the butcher’s daughter.
The townsfolk were shocked, thinking the playboy had turned over a new leaf and fallen for the butcher girl.
Before the wedding.
Yue Zhen: He’s handsome. I want to take him home and keep him.
Pei Zhu: She actually wants my body!
After the wedding.
Clingy Prince of Xin: Sorry, I was totally wrong. My wife is brave, invincible, and insanely cool! As long as she loves me, that’s all that matters! Who cares about the empire and all that stuff?
Workaholic Yue Zhen: No one told me there was a kid at home too? I’ll have to earn more money to support this whole family. I’m exhausted. Wait, why are so many people lining up to climb into my man’s bed? Fine, fine. Line up nicely, one at a time. Go feed the pigs. Not one of you is leaving until they’re well fed.
And so a new rumor spread through the capital: the Prince of Xin’s consort was fierce and jealous, and she kept the Prince of Xin’s household in constant turmoil.
Someone boldly asked the Prince about it at court. He smiled faintly. “I’m afraid of my wife. So what?”
At least that’s better than being one of you who has no wife to dote on you!
A little scene:
Pei Zhu: Honey, if Xiao Hei (the pig) and I fell into the water at the same time, who would you save?
Zhenzhen (without hesitation): You.
Pei Zhu was overjoyed. “I knew you loved me most, honey!”
Zhenzhen: Xiao Hei can swim. You’re terrible in the water.
Pei Zhu: …
