The Playboy Is Hard to Give Up

[The text may be revised from time to time, but the plot hasn’t changed. No need to reread~]

[Pampered young master] x [Ruthless junior sister]

[Wording is being revised from time to time. No changes to the plot ^^]

The Marquis of Anyang had a concubine named Jiang Furi, a ravishing beauty with a delicate, willowy figure.

Just two days after entering the residence, she was so frightened by an assassin that she wept like a flower in the rain, making the marquis’s heart tremble along with her tears.

Little did she know that as soon as the marquis left, someone came and snatched away the handkerchief she had used to wipe her tears.

The man was strikingly handsome, his expression languid. He was none other than the eldest young master, Bei Heng, a notorious womanizer who roamed everywhere in search of fun.

Jiang Furi offered a polite smile. "You must be the eldest young master. You’re every bit as dashing and dignified as the rumors say."

Bei Heng leaned against a pillar in the corridor, several hidden weapons in his hand. Rather than smile, he replied mockingly, "Concubine, you’re not as frail as the rumors say."

Jiang Furi resented Bei Heng for seeing through her identity. Just as she was about to get rid of him, she accidentally stumbled upon Bei Heng’s greatest secret.

With no other choice, she fled the marquis’s residence in a hurry.

Who would have thought fate would play tricks on them and bind them together again?

Traveling together wasn’t difficult. They both had dirt on each other, after all. It was just a mutually beneficial arrangement.

Unexpectedly, one day the arrogant, ill-mannered Bei Heng patiently asked Jiang Furi about her personal affairs.

His expression darkened as he looked at the token of love she had given someone else, and he asked in a low voice, "Have you found someone you like?"

Jiang Furi didn’t want to reveal her feelings, and she didn’t even understand what it meant to like someone. She merely brushed him off, saying that he knew nothing about the pure friendship between other people.

She hadn’t expected her casual remark to hit a nerve. His expression grew even more sour as he enunciated, "You mean I’m dirty?!"

Even if Jiang Furi thought so, she wouldn’t be so cruel as to say it out loud.

From then on, Jiang Furi felt that Bei Heng had changed somehow. She couldn’t say exactly how, but he kept looking for excuses to get close to her.

After going through life and death because of him, Jiang Furi decided to find a man willing to marry into her family and spend the rest of her life in peace.

A matchmaker arrived with a young man to propose, only for Bei Heng to appear before everyone in a state of undress. His haughty air vanished as he sat down on the ground.

Jiang Furi was frantic. She whispered angrily, "Can you just get lost?"

Who could have known he would have no shame at all? He calmly demanded an explanation. "What about those times you took liberties with me? How do you plan to account for them?"

The entanglement between the two, after traveling side by side for so long, was impossible to untangle.

But why bother drawing clear boundaries?

The world was in chaos. What could they not accomplish if they tried?

Still, Bei Heng never imagined that although he tried, he wouldn’t get the result he hoped for.

Years later, the bustling market where Bei Heng appeared was filled with anxious people and a deathly silence.

Everyone whispered about who would be the next person slaughtered, when the brutal ruler, still dressed in his court robes, chased a shopkeeper out of a store.

The usually mild-mannered shopkeeper flew into a rage. "Are you here to wreck my shop?"

Bei Heng smiled instead of getting angry and gently coaxed her. "Of course not. I’m here to take my wife home."
