Mr. Sloth Among the Thorns

Everyone in their circle says Xia Yi, the eldest daughter of the Xia family, is a madwoman who never listens to reason. She has a terrible temper and an iron will. Instead of behaving like the heiress of a pharmaceutical company, she insists on doing things that defy convention.

After fleeing back to the Xia family, she sets her sights on Qi Wei, the sickly new butler.

In a house where even your every breath is watched, two outsiders find themselves drawn together.

She uses him as a convenient target to fend off her family.

He uses her temper as cover while secretly plotting to avenge his father.

Everyone thinks it is nothing more than a transaction in which each gets what they want from a wealthy family.

Even Qi Wei believes that once he has his revenge, he can come to his senses and walk away whenever he likes.

Until the game spirals completely out of control. To keep her safe behind him, he is willing to give up the last shreds of his life.

They agreed it was only an act, but in the end, both mad fools meant it.
