Restless Period

Shang Zhu had a hair-trigger temper. Even a passing dog would get slapped twice.

To avoid inconveniencing others, Shang Zhu stayed home and traded stocks, trading until she lost track of day and night and drove everyone away. Her fiery temper had made each of her boyfriends suffer terribly.

Strangely enough, her exes both loved and hated her, remaining hopelessly devoted and repeatedly acting out scenes of clinging to her and rekindling their relationship.

Now Shang Zhu was single again.

Suddenly, matchmakers began showing up at her door in droves.

Every potential match they introduced was none other than Pei Jingyue, the volatile head of the Pei family.

Pei Jingyue had taken control of the family business at a young age. He was ruthless and decisive, and had offended plenty of people.

Some people deliberately arranged a match between him and Shang Zhu, hoping to see the two of them enter a business marriage and make a spectacle of themselves.

Onlooker A: Anyone who’s dated Shang Zhu has come away battered. If Pei Jingyue marries her, she’ll probably make his life hell.

Onlooker B: Like attracts like. Those two troublemakers getting married should count as a public service.

Onlooker D: I heard Pei Jingyue is really controlling, and Shang Zhu has a hair-trigger temper. They’re perfect for each other!

Late at night in the quiet villa,

Shang Zhu glared furiously at the man in front of her. “You’ve got some nerve marrying me. Don’t you know what I’m like?”

Pei Jingyue smiled. “It’s not that you have a bad temper. They’re just not understanding enough.”

Shang Zhu: “…”

Shang Zhu thought no one could put up with her, until she met Pei Jingyue. This guy really knew how to keep his cool!
