Early October

He is the most powerful man in the Imperial City, the master of the empire's rise and fall. Displease him, and your fate can be summarized in two words - Destruction!
But this arrogant woman does not regard him in the slightest!
Two years after marriage, she was all about clinging to him, and he was all about divorcing her; she tried innumerable times yet failed, but he successfully divorced.
Who would have guessed that on the first night following their divorce, she carefully strategizes and finally succeeds?
Ming Mei: "What crime have I committed?"
Kang Chen sat high on the judgment seat, "Theft!"
Ming Mei: "What have I stolen from you?"
"Heir!"

Secretly Adorable In Your Heart

Ming Mei stomped her foot, her heart understood; the reason Kang Chen had once again suppressed the idea of divorce was that he likely still harbored doubts about her.


Desperate yet unable to do anything, Ming Mei melded a playful, charming smile into her scheme.


"Well... sure, if you're willing to keep me around, then I'm perfectly satisfied. Who doesn't want to freeload? Maybe one of these days, I'll truly enthrall you, seduce you till you're head over heels, so much so that you can't leave me."


Kang Chen shot her a half-mocking half-smiling look as if to ridicule her daydreaming.


He replied indifferently, "Do you reckon your affairs outweigh national ones?"


This jerk! He was disdainful of her, suggesting that their divorce was negligible.


Ming Mei took a deep breath, saying, "Alright, if you don't want the divorce now, don't blame me if I change my mind later."


Kang Chen donned his military hat, and his imposing aura rose even more.
