Synopsis

Shen Huaijin, heir to a Duke's estate, was as handsome as a jade tree and an orchid, but he was a good-for-nothing who spent his days chasing women, drinking and indulging until he was utterly worn out.

He even kept a mistress on the side.

Only Qin Chuxue knew the truth: his wastrel act was fake, and so was his supposed impotence!

As she cursed him, Qin Chuxue lay limp in bed, as if he had drained every ounce of her energy.

She wanted little more than to cling to her patron's coattails, live comfortably in this little courtyard with food and drink, and settle into a peaceful life.

But Shen Huaijin disappeared for two whole months. Only then did Qin Chuxue learn that he was engaged. Of course he had no time to think of her anymore.

Qin Chuxue wasn't upset. She simply packed her things and fled.

Unexpectedly, that night,

The Imperial Guards sealed off the city, and Shen Huaijin strolled over. Gone was the wastrel she knew. His eyes were cold and ruthless, yet his voice was tender as he murmured, “Xuexue, have you had enough fun?”

The Concubine’s Mother Catches the Eye of Someone from the Capital

I can't remember if the heroine was reborn or transmigrated. Her mother was a concubine in a wealthy family. A high-ranking official came to the capital and saw her mother kneeling in punishment at the ancestral shrine. He thought she looked delicate and alluring, and fell for her at first sight. The head of the family gave the concubine to him to curry favor. When the heroine was a little over ten, she went to the capital and met a frail prince.
