A Deep-Dimpled Smile

The day after her twentieth birthday, Lin Tianmi was dragged by Qi Cheng to register their marriage. Qi Cheng was as shameless as ever, twirling the keys to his Maserati and grinning arrogantly. "Lin Tianmi, your man generously paid the nine yuan to get us married. Call it a birthday present!" Lin Tianmi regretted it almost immediately. Convinced she'd lost her mind, she stood outside the Civil Affairs Bureau and refused to budge, insisting she go back in and get a divorce certificate. Qi Cheng half-carried, half-dragged her home. The year she graduated, Lin Tianmi finally couldn't take it anymore. She packed a small bag and ran away from home, determined to "make it on her own," only to end up at the Qi family's company by a twist of fate. At first, Qi Cheng was utterly dismissive. He sat around smoking, waiting for her to give up. In his dreams, Lin Tianmi would cry and cling to his leg, sweetly calling him "hubby." The image made him laugh himself awake, so hard that even the village rooster lost its will to crow. Later, at a company dinner, Lin Tianmi introduced herself like this: "Unmarried, single, and still a young lady." When the news reached Qi Cheng, he dreamed that Lin Tianmi had put an enormous green hat on his head. He woke up furious and crowed like a rooster, and from then on, even the village hens lost their will to lay eggs... Rage gave him courage. At the employee meeting the next day, Qi Cheng blocked Lin Tianmi at the conference room door in front of everyone. The onlookers eagerly watched the drama, and even the people who got along with her, as well as those who didn't, figured she was about to lose her job. Instead, Young Master Qi gave a tight smile, pulled Lin Tianmi into his arms, and said: "Mrs. Qi, you've had your fun. Time to come home." A few friendly reminders: 1. This is a lighthearted, silly, sweet everyday romance with a honeyed flavor. Before you start reading, please set your brain aside with a little whoosh~ (I beg for mercy.) 2. The heroine is a little rascal, and the hero is a big rascal. The difference is their age. They're both equally shameless, so neither one is the more hard-done-by! 3. Our girl's name embodies her parents' fondest wishes: that their precious daughter would have a sweet life. The couple's names, Qi Cheng and Tianmi, are a perfect match and not the least bit half-hearted! Note: Posted March 6, 2019. I have a screenshot of the original blurb. Please don't copy my ideas. My next story will be this one. Please follow it: "Good Food Every Day" In the depths of winter, in November, Lu Rongrong found a man on the road who was so down on his luck he couldn't afford a meal. He was taciturn and barely showed any expression, wearing the same black outfit from the start to the end of the month... Rongrong's compassion overflowed, and from then on she had a new daily task: making sure he was fed. In the depths of winter, in November, Lu Ke came across a little airhead on the road. The woman was a ditz who got lost now and then, tripped while carrying a big delivery box home, and routinely spent half an hour backing into a parking space... Still, she did have one redeeming quality: those small, fair hands, barely half the size of his, could turn ordinary ingredients into incredible dishes he couldn't resist. At first, Lu Ke's opinion of her was: This woman is so noisy. Later, he decided: A little noise isn't impossible to put up with. Eventually, he wondered day and night: How can I make this ditz Mrs. Lu? Much later, Rongrong, who had somehow become Mrs. Lu without realizing it, finally caught on: A celebrated financial tycoon who couldn't afford food? A powerful venture capitalist down on his luck? Don't be so naive, or a big bad wolf will take you home to be his bride! A food-averse tycoon who can't stand noise and a chatty, scatterbrained little kitchen genius Theme: Stand on your own feet and begin a new chapter in life!
