Synopsis

Tycoon vs. Sweet-Talking Princess | Coming Soon: Married Life Takes Over

Shang Ziyi is the most precious little princess of the Shang family, cherished by everyone. Fair-skinned and beautiful, she's a sheltered flower who has lived a proper, uneventful life for twenty-three years. But one night, she lost her composure and boarded a top-of-the-line luxury cruise ship.

The following month, she stared at the two lines on the pregnancy test and froze. I'm... pregnant??!!!

After thinking it over for three days, Shang Ziyi decided to get an abortion. But secrets never stay secret. Someone leaked her pregnancy, and eight luxury Bentleys blocked her way as she headed to the hospital.

A man stepped out of one of the cars. He was the father of her child, Fu Zhou, the most aloof and chaste man in Jingbei.

Shang Ziyi stepped out of the car, trembling. With red-rimmed eyes, she spoke in a sweet, coquettish voice. "I've been hiding from you for ages. What do you want from me?"

The man clasped her slender wrist and wrapped an arm around her waist, holding her captive in his embrace. His voice was low.

"Marry me."

-

The Fu family of Jingbei is the leading financial dynasty, richer than a kingdom. Its head, Fu Zhou, is cool and restrained, strict with himself and courteous, composed and dignified. The proud, noble young master is unmatched, and everyone in high society praises him.

In his life, he had never done anything he couldn't control, except that night. He thought it had been nothing but a dream, until he heard the news that she was pregnant.

Marriage was put on the agenda.

The two families had arranged the wedding, but Shang Ziyi had plans of her own and deliberately made things difficult.

"I want a castle wedding, with white roses flown in from France."

"The carpet has to be imported, too, and run all the way from outside to the bedroom."

"I want a royal wedding dress, with at least a hundred diamonds."

"The crown has to be the same as the royal family's."

"Also, the bed has to be custom-made. I can't sleep on a bed that costs less than a million."

"The bathroom can't be too small. I won't feel at home unless it's at least a hundred square meters."

Shang Ziyi spoke as she sized him up. "If you can't manage all that, we don't have to get marri-"

The man interrupted her with a faint smile. "I'll prepare everything exactly as you said. In addition, the betrothal gifts will be ten billion, plus ten private resort islands."

Shang Ziyi: "But..."

Fu Zhou: "And my entire fortune."

-

After they married, Mrs. Fu became even more spoiled. She wouldn't eat this or that.

Fu Zhou coaxed and fed her, and even cooked for her himself.

Mrs. Fu clung to him and asked, "Do you love me more, or the baby?"

He smiled.

Then he whispered into her ear, "Aren't you my baby?"

-

The spoiled young lady and the financial tycoon had completely opposite personalities. Nobody thought their marriage would last, and everyone guessed they'd divorce within a year at most.

But one day a year later, a shocking trending topic appeared online: a man pressed a woman against him and kissed her passionately in a parking lot, his gaze utterly besotted.

Onlookers: "And this is what they call getting divorced??!!"

Everyone thought their encounter had been a coincidence. Only Fu Zhou knew the weather forecast had already warned that the sea would rise that night and storms would hit.

He had deliberately risked it all and ordered the cruise ship to dock by the shore.

Coming Soon 1: Married Life Takes Over [Pregnancy First, Love Later]

Blurb:

Su Xiyao is the youngest daughter of the Su family, cherished by everyone. A sheltered flower, proud and noble, she's famously unapproachable in their social circle.

The young lady has a secret nobody knows: she's a crybaby and tears up at the slightest thing.

One day, she argued with her father and ran away, only to wander into a decadent establishment.

Unable to hold her liquor, she accidentally went into the wrong room.

The following month, she trembled as she stared at the ultrasound report. How could I have... gotten pregnant just like that??!!

Su Xiyao didn't dare tell anyone. She quietly arranged for a private jet so she could make her escape.

Just as she reached the tarmac, someone blocked her way.

The man grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, his voice restrained and controlled. "Where are you planning to go with my child?"

Su Xiyao: ...Run away with the baby.

-

The third son of the Shang family, Shang Xuan, is a young master from a top-tier wealthy family. Dashing and carefree, with an easy grace, he's a prominent figure whom everyone in high society wants to get close to.

He's also the man noble young ladies are all competing to marry.

Yet he has no interest in marriage, and at twenty-seven, he still hasn't found anyone he loves.

He thought he'd live that way forever, until a drunken mistake one night led a delicate young woman into his room. The girl seemed made of water, and spent the whole night crying in fits and starts, as beautiful as pear blossoms in the rain.

And things got even messier when she became pregnant.

Shang Xuan: "Let's get married!"

At first:

Shang Xuan: "We can each live our own lives after the wedding."

Later: "Well, I can't get enough of this."

-

Marriage alliances between wealthy families come with plenty of rules.

Su Xiyao: "I won't marry you unless the bride price is at least five billion."

Shang Xuan tightened his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace, his eyes shining. "Ten billion. Not a penny less."

Nobody thought their marriage would work out. One was too cold, the other too delicate. They were completely incompatible. Some even vowed they'd divorce within a year.

A year later, photos of the two of them passionately kissing by the sea were revealed. The man looked at the woman with tender, loving eyes.

Everyone: ...How the hell could they still get divorced?

-

Little scenes:

1.

After they got married, Su Xiyao cried even more often. Shang Xuan coaxed her helplessly. "What will it take to make you stop crying?"

With teary eyes, Mrs. Shang said, "Sleep in the guest room tonight."

Shang Xuan's Adam's apple bobbed again and again. He lowered his voice and said, "Actually, maybe you should just keep crying."

2.

Mrs. Shang's beloved nightgown had been torn to shreds. She pushed open the study door, crying, "This is all your fault."

Shang Xuan lifted his chin slightly and pointed to his Adam's apple. "Here, bite me."
