[Drama-queen heiress VS cold-on-the-outside, warm-on-the-inside young master]
What’s the first thing you do after being reborn?
Xu Yun: Corner him and force him to marry me.
She chose the wrong man in her previous life, lost her family, and died full of regret. Only as she lay dying did she learn that Ning Hangzhi had even given up his shares for her. This time, she swears she’ll cling to him for dear life and, while she’s at it, grind her ex-husband into the dirt.
So on the first day after being reborn, she shows up at the entrance of Ning Group in her pajamas and shouts, “Ning Hangzhi! Will you marry me? We can get the license with just our ID cards!”
Ning Hangzhi walks around her without changing expression.
The next day, she blocks his car with a banner. “Fine if you won’t marry me. How about dating?”
Ning Hangzhi backs up and takes another route.
On the third day, she storms into his office with a packed lunch. Inside, she’s made a heart out of ketchup, with a little note beside it: You don’t have to eat it. Just look at me. I won’t charge you.
Ning Hangzhi picks up his chopsticks and stabs the heart to pieces.
The whole city watches the spectacle: Miss Xu has gone crazy.
Until one day, Ning Hangzhi finally corners her against a wall. “What exactly are you trying to do?”
Xu Yun pulls out a family heirloom sachet, presses it into his hand, and rises onto her toes with a beaming smile. “I’m trying to trick you into becoming my baby’s daddy.”
Ning Hangzhi clutches the sachet, the tips of his ears turning bright red.
As for Lin Yu? The night he plays guitar and sings “Love Me” outside her window, only to get doused with dirty foot-washing water, Xu Yun squats on the balcony, snacking on melon seeds as she watches the show. She casually messages Ning Hangzhi: “Husband, look! Someone’s showering with the window open!”
Ning Hangzhi replies with a period.
Well, that’s progress.
