Synopsis

[New author, new book. I won’t abandon this story, so please show your support!] Content notes: This is a completely fictional setting. No transmigration, no System, no rebirth. A lighthearted, slice-of-life sweet romance. The leads will have a child, and the hero can embroider. Both leads are inexperienced, one-on-one romance, two-year age gap, with the man older. #Adorable, bold young lady × gentle, sly top scholar# The Minister of Rites said that Wang Zhaohua had the talent to come first in the imperial examinations, but he ended up placing third. After looking over the exam papers, the minister praised him, saying his name and appearance might have had something to do with it. If that was so, then he must be destined to become a top scholar. At sixteen, he had a bright future ahead of him. Wang Zhaohua merely smiled, thinking of that charming young lady. Xilan, my lady… Meng Xilan was the youngest legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites. She was dazzlingly beautiful, pampered, and domineering. But he didn’t think she deserved to be called domineering at all. Would she accept him? Wang Zhaohua wondered, feeling a little worried. He needed to find her. He couldn’t let her overthink things. Whatever happened, Wang Zhaohua would marry Meng Xilan. That was a fact. If she didn’t accept him, then he would just have to… court her properly. He would make her agree to let him be her husband. He was two years older than her, so he ought to think of her more and take good care of her from then on. Of course, that was the best way to look at it. Surely it had nothing to do with how adorable Xilan was? #I’m terrible at writing blurbs, so please head straight to the story.#

Why isn't there even one? Why do women's videos nowadays emphasize that abusing your wife is a temporary pleasure, and that abusing your wife is always a pleasure? Is it so hard to find books about strong women and humble men? Does the heroine have to keep her heart beating and maintain her dog-licking state even after abusing her wife to death?
