The Miu family of Jingjia was a distinguished, ancient house, famous for its strict family rules. Yet somehow, it had produced Miu Jiayue, a spoiled young heiress.

She moved freely through high society and exuded charm everywhere she went, winning countless admirers who were eager to fall at her feet.

Then news broke of an alliance between the Miu and Qi families, sending shock waves through the entire Jing circle.

Qi Heng, the head of the Qi family, had been sent abroad at the age of five. Before turning thirty, he was already in charge of a multinational business empire.

Few people had ever seen his face. All they had heard was that he was so disciplined he was dull, and so abstinent he seemed cold.

His preferences could hardly have been more different from Miss Miu's.

-

They met for the first time on the day they registered their marriage. Qi Heng wore a custom-tailored suit, looking both distinguished and distant.

When they returned to the Qi residence, he courteously opened the master bedroom door. "Miss Miu, you'll stay here from now on. It gets plenty of light."

Then he pointed to the room at the end of the hall. "I'll stay in that one, so I won't bother you."

Miu Jiayue stared at his dazzlingly handsome face. Coming to her senses, she smiled, dimples appearing in her cheeks. "Oh... how about we don't sleep in separate rooms?"

-

After the wedding, rumors spread everywhere.

People said Miss Miu was unhappy with the Qi family's endless rules and had made life at home unbearable.

Some even claimed relations between the Qi and Miu families had frozen over, and their marriage existed in name only.

Then, at a certain banquet, Miu Jiayue made a grand entrance with her arm affectionately linked through Qi Heng's.

Miss Miu wore a champagne-colored gown, with a hairpin set with diamonds worth tens of millions. Compared with before, she looked even more like a pampered, spoiled darling.

As they passed the dessert table, she gave the man's arm a coquettish shake. "Qi Heng, I want that."

The entire room fell silent. The man rumored to be aloof and reserved gently raised his hand and brushed the cream from the corner of her lips with his fingertip. "All right. Eat slowly. No one's going to take it from you."

Everyone assumed the couple were merely putting on an act. Later in the evening, several young heirs even came over to "catch up" with Miu Jiayue.

But that night, amid the rising steam, the man's lips traced every inch of her, his desire barely concealed.

"Hm? Miss Miu, wasn't I good enough to you last night?"

"Why are you looking at other men?"

[Bonus Scene]

After they married, Miu Jiayue learned that the way to deal with Mr. Qi, so disciplined and proper, was to entice him a little at a time.

So...

The first time:

"We're married already. What's wrong with letting me feel your abs?"

The second time:

"We're married already. What's wrong with giving me a kiss?"

Later on:

"We're married already, so let me... Mmph... You brute!!"
