The Villain's Wife

Lily Qin's life was shattered at twenty when her stepmother, stepsister, and former fiancé conspired against her, making her a national laughingstock. She disappeared, only to resurface seven years later as the formidable "Miss Tycoon." Now, at twenty-seven, Lily is a successful, beautiful, and intelligent businesswoman who commands a multinational company abroad. Despite her triumphant return and the expectation of revenge, her true focus is on expanding her empire, driven by a desire for profit rather than vengeance. Meanwhile, Zhuo Jingren harbored a secret childhood love for Lily. He pledged to become wealthier than her, leaving an orphanage to build his fortune. Upon his success, he returns to find Lily engaged and seemingly forgetting him. Mistaken for an escort after an encounter and now running away from him, Lily enlists the feared mafia boss, Zhuo Jingren, as her bodyguard, commissioning him to "wreak some havoc." As their dynamic shifts, Lily's focus on money is juxtaposed with Zhuo Jingren's playful pursuit, leading to a "shameless" exchange where Lily, a self-proclaimed independent woman, considers accepting his body as compensation.
