Ruan Zhu, the Hong Kong circle's department-store princess, comes from a family that owns a department store and more than a dozen brands that print money like golden geese laying eggs. Her family is worth hundreds of billions. For twenty-two years, she lived recklessly, spoiled and willful, flaunting her bold and carefree nature. The only time she ever got into trouble was when, after drinking at a friend's wedding, she was overcome by lust and abducted the groom's older brother, then ran away once she sobered up.
But she got unlucky and ended up pregnant, so she had no choice but to marry him. It was a business alliance, at least, and she could tell herself she was contributing to the family business. After all, the prize she'd abducted was Shen Yujian, the head of a top-tier family in Beijing's elite circle.
But!!! She may have been tricked into a marriage of convenience!!
Her man is all looks and no use!!
Before their reckless encounter, she'd been taken by his face: cool and restrained, dangerously alluring, and the perfect embodiment of all her fantasies about men. So, emboldened by alcohol, she made her move!
Only after they married did she discover that, though her husband was mature and courteous, he was also rigid, humorless, and focused entirely on making money. What was she, chopped liver?
The queen of being difficult was devastated!
For the sake of a happy life ahead, she decided to reform her rigid husband through hands-on practice.
Before his reform, Mr. Shen's daily routine went like this: wake up and run at six, eat breakfast at seven, go to work at seven thirty, then spend the day working. He usually got home at six to have dinner with his little wife, then handled work in his study. At nine on the dot, he would appear in front of her, confiscate her phone, supervise her bedtime, and read to the baby in her belly for prenatal education.
After his reform, the serious Mr. Shen's style changed to this:
Working from home, a perfect husband who takes care of his little wife's every move and turns into her twenty-four-hour butler.
"Baby, it's time to drink some water."
"Baby, are your legs sore? Let me massage them."
"Honey, you haven't paid any attention to me in ages. Stop looking at that little brat. He's ugly as sin. I'm much better-looking."
"Zhuzhuer, I miss you. When are you coming back?"
"..."
Whenever Mr. Shen goes on a business trip, he personally picks out gifts for her.
His little wife loves having fun and sometimes comes home drunk. Mr. Shen patiently removes her makeup and applies her serum, toner, moisturizer, and eye cream, just as she taught him.
