The Madam Only Wants a Divorce

Scheming, theatrically unhinged fake madman x resilient, sunny, pitiable girl // Married first, love later / sweet romance

Only after Qin Shu married into the Mu family did she learn that Mu Shaotang was a notorious madman throughout Dongling City.

And she was simply the best candidate the Mu family could find to suppress his violent aura.

On their wedding day, Mu Shaotang never set foot in the bridal chamber, leaving her to spend the night alone.

When it was time to visit her family, Mu Shaotang went mad in front of the whole Mu household rather than accompany her.

Qin Shu thought she would spend the rest of her life in the Mu household, bearing all those grievances, until a man who kept climbing through her window barged into her quiet life.

As time went on, Qin Shu became more and more afraid of him.

Because he was far too bold! He dared to care about her, dared to touch her hair, dared to... Qin Shu's thoughts were in disarray. When he came over to take her hand, she slashed his palm with her hairpin.

She never imagined that the scar she had made herself would one day lie on her husband's palm.

At first, Mu Shaotang thought Qin Shu was a spy planted by someone at his side.

Unable to do anything about this wife someone had forced on him, he could only disguise himself as his own bodyguard to investigate her.

He never expected to get hooked on the act.

Unable to forget the beauty he'd seen beneath her bridal veil that night, he became obsessed with climbing through her window.

He had planned to find the right moment to reveal his identity, but before he could say anything, the beauty had already noticed something was amiss.

Exposed, Mu Shaotang carried her back to their room at a run and swallowed his pride to soothe her. But the beauty silently wept, her hands shaking like leaves, and handed him a divorce agreement she'd prepared long ago.

Mu Shaotang (putting on a fierce face): "No one in Dongling City wanted to marry me in the first place. Now you want to divorce me and leave me a cast-off husband?"
