Love in the North

[Coming-of-Age + Childhood Friends + Long-Standing Plan + Regretful Chase + Military Marriage]

“Don't you plan to take responsibility for me?” Lin Beishen, the second young master of the Lin family, stared at the woman in front of him.

“Master Shen, we're both adults. You know how this works.” She grinned and held a finger to his lips as he tried to say more. “Shh.”

The Lin family was the most powerful of the four great families in the capital, Shangjing. His slightly roguish eyes fixed on the woman in front of him. “Can I go back to my room and sleep tonight?” She looked at him, icy-cold. “No.” He immediately put on a solemn expression, saluted, and replied with perfect seriousness, “Yes, ma'am.”

Later, at a family dinner, Lin Beishen turned to the eldest Lin brother beside him. “Big brother, do you and sister-in-law sleep in separate beds?” Lin Beiyi looked at his wife beside him. “We make up after arguing in bed, so no.” Under everyone's curious gaze, Lin Beishen turned to the woman eating beside him. “Wife, let's make up in bed too! No sleeping apart!” The woman, looking embarrassed by everyone's concerned attention, said, “We were just joking.” Lin Beishen nodded in agreement with a satisfied smile.
