[Useless Beauty x Sickly, Scheming Big Shot x Both Pure x Eight-Year Age Gap]
Shi Xia grew up in a small county town. Deceived by her family, she married Jiang Yixing, the head of the Jiang family, who was supposedly on the verge of death.
On the day she married into the Jiang family, everyone waited to see her make a fool of herself. Some laughed at her, while others laughed at Jiang Yixing: a sickly man had married a pretty airhead, and he would probably tire of her in a few days. After all, everyone knew Jiang Yixing couldn't stand stupidity.
Shi Xia knew perfectly well what this marriage was about. She'd planned to either wait for her husband to die or for him to tire of her, then take the money and leave. But as they spent time together, she discovered that not only was her husband still alive, he was also paying her a generous salary of 100,000 a month to be his personal caretaker.
To keep this high-paying job with room and board, she planned to act a little smarter and more diligent. But she really was useless: she was no good at anything and always managed to make a mess of things.
Strangely, every time she caused trouble and looked timidly at Jiang Yixing, the sickly, cold-faced, scheming big shot would simply pull her into his arms and soothe her in a low voice. "It's nothing. I'll handle it. You stay right here and behave. You're not going anywhere."
Didn't he hate stupid people? How come he liked her more and more?
