Back then, Si Qi chased after Pei Zhengye relentlessly and was rejected, becoming the butt of everyone's jokes. The gag followed her throughout all four years of college.
Who would have thought that three years after graduation, Si Qi would become Pei Zhengye's lawful wife?
Si Qi jolted upright from her deathbed. "What do you call this? Waiting for the rabbit to come to you. Revenge is a dish best served ten years later."
At the winter charity gala, Si Qi was an invited guest whose spending put everyone else to shame. She bought a century-old, one-of-a-kind porcelain vase at the sky-high price of tens of millions.
If she couldn't have Pei Zhengye, at least spending some of his money would make her feel better.
Si Qi pushed open the door, and a dark shadow fell over her.
"Give me your card."
Si Qi froze for half a second, then laughed. "Does it hurt to see me spend that little?"
Pei Zhengye took out a card. "Use the primary card. There's no spending limit."
Staring at the card, she remembered the first thing he'd said on the day they registered their marriage: "You can have unlimited money, but not love."
Si Qi took the card with a smile. Having money was enough. What good was love?
-
The eldest young lady of the Si family, Si Qi, was famously a fake heiress. To preserve her wealth and status, she shamelessly pursued Pei Zhengye. After marriage, she lived extravagantly, indulging day and night.
Everyone knew Pei Zhengye hated her to the core, and even Si Qi believed it herself.
For six months after their wedding, Si Qi put on a show of extravagant spending while secretly transferring assets behind his back. Then, one day, she saw that her balance had grown so large it made her eyes swim.
Si Qi asked for a divorce.
Pei Zhengye slowly hung up his clothes, completely unruffled. "If you transfer assets during a marriage, you may receive a smaller share or none at all in the divorce."
He sat on the leather sofa, crossed his long legs, and rolled up his sleeves. "And with my team of elite lawyers, what little you get won't even be enough to maintain your crocodile-skin Hermes bag."
He raised his eyes, his smile unreadable. "Still want a divorce?"
Si Qi nearly choked, then immediately changed her tune and threw herself at him. "Honeyyy, I was only joking."
