- Flirtatious, lively heiress x sly, elegant businessman
- Seven-year age gap
As a member of the Shu family, Shu Weisheng had known since childhood that her future husband would be a man named Lu Chilin.
She didn't meet him until the night before their engagement. Dressed in black and every inch the gentleman, he spoke elegantly and carried himself with ease among their elders.
She unwrapped a piece of candy and popped it into her mouth, then stepped in front of him with a sweet smile. "It's a pleasure doing business with you."
Lu Chilin looked at her and returned her handshake with a faint smile. "Happy wedding day."

Shu Weisheng understood the value of this business marriage. They would put on a show in public, but in private they would stay out of each other's way and each do their own thing.
Luckily, her husband was easygoing, indulging her in everything as though he had no limits.
Shu Weisheng: I was a hundred thousand short when buying a bag. Send me some money.
Lu Chilin: Account number.
Shu Weisheng: I'm not coming home tonight. If Dad asks, please make up an excuse for me.
Lu Chilin: Okay.
Shu Weisheng: The paparazzi got photos of me with him. Send someone to take care of it right away.
Lu Chilin: .

Lu Chilin knew better than anyone how much Shu Weisheng loved to have fun.
But he thought she would grow up eventually, and he was willing to stay by her side while she did.
That day, heavy snow blocked the roads. Lu Chilin leaned back in the car to rest, worn out, when his phone vibrated. He looked down and saw a message.
Shu Weisheng: I've fallen in love with him. Let's get a divorce.
It was the only time he didn't reply to her message.
When the snow stopped, he arrived home, still chilled, and met the eyes of the woman on the sofa, calmly video-calling someone.
His hand, veins standing out, pulled at his tie. His voice was full of restraint as he said:
"Shu Weisheng, do you think I don't have a temper?"

Later on, in the heat of the moment, Shu Weisheng threatened divorce again.
He covered her lips, his unusually cold breath brushing her ear.
"Say those two words again. I dare you."
