[1v1 + face-slapping + loyal hero + happy ending + no saintly heroine + equally matched leads + knew from childhood]
Decisive, motherly female lead | Flirtatious, clingy, love-struck male lead
The century-old Shen family produced a martial prodigy, so to keep their youngest daughter from causing even more trouble, they packed her off abroad as an exile.
Twelve years later, the eldest Shen daughter was forcibly summoned home for an arranged marriage, only to discover that her childhood betrothed had changed from the eldest son of the Qin family to the Qin family’s “eldest son.”
The Shen heiress laughed in disbelief. After all, a person’s weight in an argument depends on her status.
So at the lavish engagement banquet, she went after both families with all her might. The old-fashioned patriarchs were left speechless, and the head of the Qin family was forced to lie down and go to sleep...
But her former betrothed had been glued to her ever since they first met in Yuncheng, constantly putting on his “miracle An’an” act to seduce her. The Shen heiress figured she might as well take what was offered.
When it comes to playing with men, she knows exactly what she’s doing.
Qin An escaped the Qin family by the skin of his teeth and rose to become a feared figure in northern Y Country. He never imagined that the notorious southern underworld figure known as “King Yama Calling the Roll” was the Xiao An he’d thought about day and night, or that his wife controlled business giant YK Group.
He couldn’t help her much with her career, but at least he had the looks she liked, and he could use every trick in the book to seduce her.
If he wanted a wife, he had to fight and compete for her. As head of the Qin family, he had no reason to give up his place!
