Blurb
Everyone in A City's upper circles knows that Ning Shizhi is a vulgar country bumpkin who stops at nothing. Thanks to her father's kindness to the Li family, she rose to prominence overnight and became Li Jingshen's wife.
Li Jingshen has always treated her coldly and looked down on her.
There are even rumors that Li Jingshen agreed to marry her only to secure his inheritance rights in the Li family. As soon as the old master steps down, Ning Shizhi will be thrown out.
Everyone in their circle is waiting to laugh at Ning Shizhi, and hoping to take her place as Li Jingshen's wife.
But just days before Li Jingshen took over the Li family, Ning Shizhi seemed to vanish from the face of the earth.
The next time Li Jingshen ran into her, Ning Shizhi was catching a thief after stepping in to help.
Ning Shizhi flashed him a brazen, carefree smile. "Big brother, can I borrow your car?"
Li Jingshen frowned. "Ning Shizhi, what are you up to now?"
But Ning Shizhi acted as if she hadn't heard him, floored the accelerator, and chased after the thief.
By the time Li Jingshen caught up with her, she seemed only then to remember who he was.
Ning Shizhi: "Oh, aren't you Li Jingyu's older brother?"
She seemed to have completely forgotten that she and Li Jingshen were married!
Li Jingshen's voice turned icy. "Ning Shizhi, how dare you forget me?"
Ning Shizhi was baffled. "I didn't forget you. Aren't you Li Jingyu's older brother?"
Li Jingshen: ...

Later, Li Jingshen pinned Ning Shizhi against the hospital corridor wall.
His eyes red, he demanded, "So now you're going to kill the version of you that loves me?"
Ning Shizhi's smile was faint as she replied, "Can you even tell which version of me loves you?"
