My Arranged Marriage Partner Is a Suit-Wearing Tough Guy

The second-born daughter of the Li family had a rough life. Just after her birth parents found her, they decided to marry her off for an alliance, claiming she was a disappointment.

Her marriage candidates were mostly playboys who cared only about looks, nothing like the candidates for the eldest daughter.

Until one day, Tan Ning came downstairs and Chen Shu pointed at her. "I want her."

Before the wedding, Chen Shu told Tan Ning, "As long as you behave yourself, I'll make sure no one ever puts you in chains again."

Tan Ning was shamefully moved. On impulse, she blurted out, "Do you have violent tendencies?"

Chen Shu gave Tan Ning's slight frame a long, complicated look. His voice was steady, just like him. "No, but you can."

**

Chen Shu of the Chen family was a talented young man, a rich and generous brute in a suit who made countless people covet him.

Looks weren't everything. Everyone knew he was a celibate bachelor who had no interest in women, much to the regret of countless wealthy young ladies.

Recently, rumors had it that the Chen and Li families were forming a marriage alliance, and the bride was the second daughter, who had only just been brought back and was unknown to the public.

When someone asked Chen Shu to confirm, he offered a single explanation: "I like obedient, well-behaved women."

Everyone in their circle understood. Who didn't know that Chen Shu had once declared he would marry a woman whose abilities matched his own?

That put everyone at ease. Even the celibate bachelor couldn't escape the fate of an arranged marriage.

The second daughter of the Li family probably wasn't good enough for Chen Shu. It was just her bad luck.

**

Tan Ning had always thought Chen Shu married her simply to fulfill an obligation. When a friend asked her what it was like to marry a celibate bachelor,

she made a rare joke. "Aside from seeing the bed and ending up with aching hips and knees and feeling exhausted, there's nothing bad about it."

Her friend was happy for her. When she asked how Tan Ning would describe Chen Shu, Tan Ning fell silent, then finally said,

"He's a dazzling, distant person."

Chen Shu, who had come to take his wife home, gave them a long, inscrutable look from behind.

That night, a certain man went at it with particular gusto, breathing against her ear. "Now that I'm dazzling, wife, tell me, what part of me is distant?"

The youngest daughter of the Sang family was as beautiful as a celestial maiden, worrying her old father sick.

The reason was that his charming, coquettish daughter had a notorious knack for attracting "crazies."

At five, a boy from kindergarten brought her gold every day, intending to play at keeping her like a treasure in a golden house.

The little princess Sang donated it to the charity box and said gratefully, "Thank you, but I don't like shiny gold things. Next time, could you not try to tie our shoelaces together? Someone might trip."

At fifteen, a boy from high school ambushed her from behind with a drugged handkerchief, intending to play a game of "Close your eyes, it's dark."

The little princess Sang knocked him down with one punch and said gently, "I'm very delicate, you know. Don't ambush me from behind next time. You could get hurt."

At eighteen, a sweet-tempered senior stood on the roof of a building and loudly confessed his love, declaring that he would jump if she turned him down.

The little princess Sang pulled out a grammar guide. "Senior, you used the wrong grammar. Aww, you're top of the class, so how could you get it wrong? You're no longer my forever idol."

The little princess Sang was worried. The little princess Sang sighed. She wanted a sweet romance, but it was just too hard.

After giving it a lot of thought, she decided to find someone gentle and powerful to protect her and put an end to her damned special ability.

As it happened, the frail childhood friend next door seemed perfect. He was gentle, came from a powerful family, and if she married him, she could do whatever she wanted!

"Brother Pei, even though you're frail and don't like going out, we know each other inside and out!"

Pinned against the wall by her childhood friend, he said, "...Okay."

Later, the little princess regretted it bitterly. As expected, she couldn't escape her special ability. After picking and choosing, she'd chosen the craziest one!

Now she was getting to "know him inside and out" every single day!

A coquettish sweetheart who could melt your heart x a sickly yandere who could scare you to death

Ye Cheng had no other love in life besides good food. So when a rare delicacy was presented to him by his subordinates, he immediately brought it home to share. The family each took a bite, and soon the plate of mushrooms was empty. They were so fresh!

Suddenly, the world spun and his vision turned green. His heart clenched, and he shouted, "They're poisonous!"

Before he could finish speaking, thump, thump, thump, the three members of the family toppled over in a row.

The last thought of the youngest daughter, Ye Panxi, was: "There's still one bite left on the plate. I didn't get to eat it. What a waste!"

When Ye Panxi woke up again, the world had changed. She had been taken to a strange place where all the women had short hair and were skin and bones. They were even saying she was unfilial and had pushed her parents into a river.

Was she that kind of person? The most she'd ever done was grab the last bite on a plate!

Strange place, strange people. She glanced to the side and saw a couple of unfamiliar, skeletal people lying beside her. Tsk, Ye Panxi had a bad feeling.

Those eyes said it all: they were the people who had eaten the poisonous mushrooms and dropped dead together.

She didn't dare say anything. How had her perfectly good parents suddenly changed so much?

After a kind villager described the situation at length, the Ye family had an idea of what was going on. Ye Cheng might have been no more than a low-ranking county magistrate, but he kept his cool. He looked at his wife and daughter. "Don't worry. I've got this!"

Then came the face-slapping, and it came fast.

The county magistrate father, who couldn't lift a hand or carry a load: "What? Carry a hoe and farm the fields?!"

The beautiful mother, who loved looking good and enjoying life and didn't like raising children: "What? We can't even dress warmly?! And three kids?!"

The daughter, who loved good food with all her heart: "What! We can't even eat our fill?!"

The family stared at one another. What kind of human misery was this? Even a refined person had to curse at the heavens: "Damn you, Heaven, for doing this to me!"
