The first time they met, Jiang Chizhou was hanging out with a few buddies when he saw Yan Xi sucking on a bottle of Yakult.

"Knock over her bottle and teach her how cruel the world can be!"

Jiang Chizhou accepted his bet and knocked over Yan Xi's Yakult.

Crying, Yan Xi went home and saw her dad kneeling on a washboard because he'd made her mom angry.

She clenched her little fists. "When I grow up, I'll marry Jiang Chizhou and teach him how cruel the world can be!"

Years later, Yan Xi still gets mad every time she thinks about it.

Jiang Chizhou kneels on the keyboard. "Honey, I'm sorry. Can you leave the door unlocked tonight?"

[Before marriage]

Jiang Chizhou declared, "You've got no chance of getting revenge on me!"

Later, Yan Xi finally saw the light and set her sights on a kind upperclassman at school. Jiang Chizhou bought a whole truckload of Yakult to win her back. "Yanyan, I want to get a good, old-fashioned socialist beating."

[After marriage]

Newlywed Yan Xi, who married young, chats with her single friend. Her friend sighs, "I think I've fallen for a male friend I've known for years, but we're so close that I don't know how to make a move."

Yan Xi quietly raises her collar to cover the hickey and comforts her. "It's okay. My husband was really rough with me..."
