Wait, Why Are You a Pillow Princess?

Qiao Wan's wife is a domineering CEO with a slim waist and long legs, practically the picture of a workaholic. But after a year of marriage, their relationship is even purer than friendship.

Her mother was frantic. If they couldn't win Shang Shixu's loyalty completely, how could they ensure their investments would keep paying off?

Her mother fretted endlessly. If things continued like this, her daughter would surely be looked down on by the Shang family.

Her younger sister even offered her a terrible idea: "I've got some aphrodisiacs, sis. Just make her yours first!"

Qiao Wan rejected them all, because she knew this was the world of a novel.

Shang Shixu was the female lead, while Qiao Wan wasn't her destined partner. She was just a vicious supporting character who would bring the main couple together.

Shang Shixu didn't love her. Even if the book had her having sex seven times in one night, she still had to keep herself chaste around Qiao Wan, her arranged-marriage partner.

Not only that, in the future, she would ruthlessly abandon Qiao Wan for getting in the way of her free love. The Qiao family company would go bankrupt, and Qiao Wan would have to make ends meet working in nightclubs.

After becoming aware of her situation, Qiao Wan decided to follow the plot obediently, then ask Shang Shixu to go easy on her family's company.

There was only one week left until Shang Shixu's destined partner appeared. Qiao Wan bought a plane ticket and prepared to run.

But that night, a fierce storm hit and her flight was delayed. Shang Shixu caught her and brought her home.

-2-

On the first night after her failed escape, Qiao Wan learned from her mistake and tried again.

She put on a show, shedding a couple of tears as she claimed her grandmother was sick and needed her care. Her acting was terrible.

But Shang Shixu merely gave her a languid glance and silently agreed.

Qiao Wan was overjoyed and packed her bags again.

She began imagining her wonderful future: sunshine, beaches, beautiful women, and a life of comfort.

But halfway through her sweet dream, a strange sensation woke her up.

On the first night after her failed escape, Shang Shixu, who was supposedly frigid, kept her up all night, having sex seven times.

The next day, Qiao Wan couldn't get out of bed.

Qiao Wan was completely bewildered, but seeing Shang Shixu acting as if nothing had happened, she decided to do the same.

Day after day went by. To outsiders, Qiao Wan was still the arranged-marriage wife Shang Shixu didn't love. Her family and friends continued to worry about her, wondering when she'd be dumped.

Qiao Wan just smiled without saying a word, rubbing her sore waist as she counted down the days until her next escape.

She picked up her luggage, but before she could get out the door, a call from one of Shang Shixu's friends stopped her.

On the phone, her domineering CEO wife was crying drunkenly:

"We've been married all this time, and she's never once made the first move on me. You know I've always been the princess, lying back and letting someone else do all the work. But now look at me, I'm the one doing all the work..."
