Lu Songyu was a notorious rich young heir from a prominent Beicheng family, wayward and indulgent, with a wild streak that knew no bounds.
When he reached the age to settle down, all his friends had found partners, but he was still chasing after women.
So the Lu family arranged a marriage for him.
What shocked everyone was that Lu Songyu, who had always looked down on marriages between wealthy families, actually obeyed his family's arrangements and got married in a whirlwind ceremony.
His childhood friends in their social circle all gossiped:
"What does he see in her? Why the rush?"
Young Master Lu held a cigarette between his long fingers, slightly raised his sharp chin, and casually answered with just a few words:
"She's obedient. Less hassle."

Jiang Wanyin was gentle by nature. She had been everyone's first love back in school and had never fallen out with anyone. She even calmly accepted the marriage her family arranged without asking her.
Unfortunately, the man was the Lu family's heir. Everyone in Beicheng knew Lu Songyu was a thoroughly rotten bastard.
Her friends felt sorry for her.
Jiang Wanyin, however, was happy.
Because Lu Songyu had been the secret, passionate crush of her girlhood.
And the brick wall she had thrown herself against without a second thought.
Three years into their marriage, Jiang Wanyin was tired.
Even the most fervent love could be slowly worn away by life's trivial annoyances and the other person's lack of effort.
She took out a divorce agreement.
Her heart raced despite herself, and she still held on to a shred of hope for him.
Lu Songyu stubbed out his cigarette and signed his name without even looking at the agreement.
Just like everything else about him, he didn't hesitate or drag things out.
At that moment, Jiang Wanyin finally let go.
She decided to think of all the love she'd poured into him over the years as having been wasted on a dog.
Later, Lu Songyu regretted it. He did everything he had once scoffed at to try to win her back, becoming a laughingstock among his friends.
That day, he stood in the pouring rain all night, convinced Jiang Wanyin would soften. But he watched as she slowly approached, accompanied by a refined, elegant man who patiently held an umbrella over her.
It was Shen Shiyan, his sworn enemy, whom he hated with all his heart.
The diamond ring worth a fortune on Jiang Wanyin's finger gleamed brilliantly. Her lovely face was distant and cool:
"Mr. Lu, please show some respect. I'm married now."
