Shang Miaoli never imagined she'd get married at twenty-three, much less to a man seven years older than her.
A man so stiff and unromantic he was downright boring.
After they married, she made a scene at every turn. She barged into his conference room, picked the flowers he liked best... She did things like that more than once or twice.
Yet he seemed to have no temper at all. He never got angry, just calmly carried on with what he was doing.
Under everyone's astonished gaze, he introduced her: "This is my wife, Miaoli. She wanted to say hello to all of you, right, darling?"
Shang Miaoli's pranks kept backfiring on her.

"A man like him would never find a girlfriend if he weren't married to me!"
Shang Miaoli had complained about Zhang Mingli to her friends many times.
When she wore a short skirt, he said, "I suggest you change your clothes."
Shang Miaoli sneered. Of course he was stuck in the Qing dynasty. He'd never seen the world and couldn't even accept a woman wearing a short skirt. Was she married, or had she gained a father?
Just as she was about to blow up, he added, "The high today is below ten degrees."
Shang Miaoli choked on her words, then managed to say, "Well, thank you."
She took endless pleasure in "tormenting" Zhang Mingli, but never got a reaction out of him.
At last, Shang Miaoli decided it wasn't fun anymore and came up with another plan.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and sat on his lap. Shang Miaoli breathed sweetly into his ear, her voice honeyed, though her words were pure provocation. "A gentleman of noble character? So, are you a gentleman, or a eunuch?"
For once, his expression turned cold. "Get off my lap. Now."
"No." Shang Miaoli lifted her chin, looking utterly sly. "Not unless you're willing to divorce me."
Without a moment's hesitation, he said, "Impossible."
