[A spoiled, domineering, truly princess-syndrome young lady who's been indulged into having a terrible temper VS a composed, noble, endlessly accommodating disciplinarian Daddy who's only maximally controlling aboard the ship]
■ "When Yiyi was little, didn't you love riding me like a horse?"
■ "Who said I wanted to ride you like that, you big meanie Σ(°Д°"
Shang Baoyi was a notorious princess-syndrome girl, and had displayed astonishing levels of spoiled, overbearing behavior from a young age.
At eight, she could already order a newly acquainted older boy to serve her tea and water and let her ride him like a horse. She did it so naturally, as if the whole world were her servants.
Her far-sighted parents arranged a marriage for her early, hoping that her childhood sweetheart and fiancé would put up with her a little, given how long they'd known each other.
Who could have imagined that three months before the wedding, her fiancé Lu Zeyan would be unable to stand her spoiled, overbearing ways and run off with Cinderella?
He declared that he would never marry her unless Shang Baoyi got rid of her princess syndrome.
Shang Baoyi: Get rid of my princess syndrome? You might as well ask me to die!
The princess-syndrome girl had lost face, and she was furious.
To get her revenge, the princess-syndrome girl turned tearfully to the calm-faced older cousin of her fiancé. "Will you marry me? I want him to call me Sister-in-law!"
Just as he had patiently done this and that for her many years ago, Lu Mingye spoke in his usual unhurried manner:
"All right."
*
On Shang Baoyi's fifteenth birthday, Lu Zeyan had angered her, so she went to complain to the older cousin he was especially afraid of.
She wasn't close to this older brother, but that didn't stop her from bossing him around and demanding that he punish Lu Zeyan.
She brought Lu Mingye back to the garden and, emboldened by his presence, declared that she would take her revenge on Lu Zeyan.
A photographer happened to capture that moment.
Shang Baoyi smeared melting ice cream over Lu Zeyan's face. Lu Mingye stood three meters away as a background figure, his suit so immaculate that not a single crease was out of place.
Shang Baoyi could never have known that this was the moment Lu Mingye began wanting to stand by her side.
*
"Family responsibilities had dictated the course of Lu Mingye's life for twenty-eight years. This one transgression was the selfish desire he stole for himself."
"She was the one who first clasped his hand tightly. There was no way he would ever let go."
[She wants the stars and the moon, and all he wants is to surrender to her]
■ The heroine is truly hot-tempered and has princess syndrome. She's spoiled, overbearing, unreasonable, and best at making a fuss over nothing. When she's in the right, she pushes her luck even further and refuses to let things go.
■ She's willing to hit, and the hero is willing to take it. He falls first and adores her. He's a hypocrite with no bottom line when it comes to indulging her. A composed man in power before marriage, he breaks his Daddy persona's rules after marriage.
■ The hero's need for control and possessiveness are both turned up to the max, with a hint of taking what he wants by force. The heroine is a silly beauty who loves to play around and enjoys all sorts of wild play.
