[Free-spirited, sunny heroine VS struggling, lovable hero; marriage before love + strong hero and heroine + one-on-one romance] She is the only daughter of a great general, and he is the legitimate son of the chancellor. Civil officials and military generals have never seen eye to eye. Her father and the chancellor are bitter enemies, yet the Emperor issues an edict marrying their families together: Shen Mingzhu, daughter of the great general, is to wed Xie Yanzhi, the chancellor’s legitimate son. Her mother weeps as if her heart were breaking, while her father frets with worry. After comforting her mother and reassuring her father, Shen Mingzhu makes a momentous decision. The Shen and Xie families are enemies, so when she marries into the Xie family, she’ll become a troublemaker and make sure they never know a moment’s peace. Behind everyone’s back, she bets she can make the Xie family miserable within three months. Then she runs into her fiancé, who is out with his childhood sweetheart and even wants to fight her over a plate of pastries. She thinks Xie Yanzhi is too stuffy and hypocritical. He thinks she is rude, overbearing, and reckless. But just as she starts planning to divorce him, that pitiful young master of the Xie family looks at her with reddened eyes. “No divorce. I won’t divorce you.”
