I Won't Be a Wife in a Powerful Household

Truly rebellious, falsely obedient × an old-fashioned, rigid traditionalist

Xu Yingzhou transmigrated here over ten years ago. She kept a low profile and took care not to draw attention to herself, afraid that anyone might notice she was different.

The only rule she ever broke was choosing a husband she liked for herself.

He came from a family of upright, strict principles, and was outstanding in both appearance and talent.

His only flaw was his dull personality and the endless rules he imposed. Even in bed, he was rigid and methodical, never allowing things to go on beyond the allotted time, even if neither of them had found release.

At first, Xu Yingzhou thought, Fine, fine. No person or thing is perfect. As long as he doesn't take concubines or visit brothels, so what if he's strict? I've been constrained for over ten years. What could a few more rules do?

But eventually, pushed to the brink, eyes reddened and frustration with nowhere to go, she grabbed the cold man as he pulled away and pinned him down...

Just as expected, he ordered her to shut herself away and reflect on her behavior, condemning her for "excessive indulgence and a lack of feminine virtue."

After countless little things piled up, Xu Yingzhou finally snapped. She flung a divorce letter in his face.

To hell with being a highborn lady! Whoever wants it can have it!

This old lady is done serving you!
