[Sweet and gentle, cool and aloof, a nuclear physics expert, the true heiress] Wen Tingxue
[Disciplined and principled, ascetic, a Chinese-style power player] Shi Qingyu
[Born a top-tier star, a professional at winning Dad over, everyone’s little ray of sunshine] Shi Xingche (Xiaoman)
Business tycoon Shi Qingyu is restrained and ascetic, renowned in their circle as a “Chinese saint.”
That is, until he meets nuclear physics PhD Wen Tingxue at a musical instrument workshop.
Cool as snow and naturally slow on the uptake, she is completely immune to all his subtle advances.
He gives her a priceless treasure. She earnestly returns the favor: “Mr. Shi, the radioactivity of this uranium ore should help you sleep.”
He gives an amused, helpless laugh, feeling out of control for the first time.
Then his family is struck by upheaval, and one night he loses control and holds her close. “Tingting, I can’t keep pretending much longer.”
She looks up at him, eyes clear. “Then… would you like to apply to become my lifelong research subject?”
Later, a business rival mocks Wen Tingxue for having degrees but knowing nothing about love.
Mr. Shi holds up their marriage certificate for all to see, his voice full of affection. “Allow me to introduce my wife. Her field of research really is me.” ❤️
