[Gorgeous, pampered little peacock x old-fashioned, abstinent, fatherly tycoon / marriage first, love later / age gap + size difference]
As the youngest daughter of a textile magnate, Lu Yiyue had enjoyed a life of ease since childhood, spending lavishly and indulging every whim.
Then, halfway through college, her family went bankrupt and cut off her allowance.
The once carefree Miss Lu, who had never blinked at shopping sprees, had to sell her beloved Hermès, Dior, and Chanel bags through tears just to get by.
As soon as she listed them, one person bought them all. Lu Yiyue looked him up and discovered the buyer was Zhou Xunzhi, a former military man known for his cold heart and unapproachable nature.
An elongated luxury car pulled up outside her shabby apartment building. Through the half-lowered rear window, the man’s sharply defined, strikingly handsome face came into view.
Lu Yiyue hugged her beloved bags, reluctant to let go, then brazenly said, "Actually, I’m an accessory to these bags. Why don’t you bundle me up and take me too?"

Zhou Xunzhi, head of the century-old Zhou clan, was famously aloof and old-fashioned, with self-discipline and propriety ingrained in his bones. He could not stand spoiled, pampered women.
When news spread that he had married Lu Yiyue, everyone in their social circle predicted:
That peacock of a young lady, the very embodiment of spoiled and pampered, would be thrown out within three days.
One day, an old friend dropped by late in the morning.
Instead of the Zhou Xunzhi who always rose early without fail, they found him looking drowsy and languid, his shirt collar open and rumpled, with several fresh scratches faintly visible on his chest.
They had barely spoken when the man paused to listen for two seconds, then rose and headed toward the master bedroom.
A soft, coy female voice drifted out: "You rascal, you’ve ruined another one of my silk nightgowns first thing in the morning..."
The petite figure was completely enveloped by the man’s tall frame. His low voice gently coaxed her: "I was wrong. I’ve already bought the private island you wanted. I’ll take you there on vacation tomorrow, all right?"
※ The young lady is 155 cm tall. She only wants sweetness, not hardship!
