Marriage first, love later｜Chasing wife
Xu Mingshu has been disliked by her sister since she was a child, and her parents no longer love her because of this. Even the marriage was left to her because her sister refused.
Chi Jingchuan, the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, was a sixteen-year-old high school student and a twenty-two-year-old close minister of the emperor. However, he suddenly fell ill and was trapped in bed. He was certainly not worthy of the pearl of his sister.
But the engagement was finalized, so the Xu family had no choice but to let Xu Mingshu marry him instead.
On the wedding night, the man looked pale after getting married, and his eyes were particularly sharp. Knowing that he couldn't hide it, Xu Mingshu took the initiative to reveal the reason for the substitute marriage.
Chi Jingchuan said indifferently: "It's just for joy, it's the same for everyone." But Xu Mingshu was left alone to face the swaying red candle.
After the marriage, although Chi Jingchuan didn't love her, he respected her enough, and her life was much easier than at home. Gradually, he would gently sweep away the unmelted snow from her hair, and would also warm her cold hands...
Xu Mingshu thought she could finally occupy some position in Chi Jingchuan's heart, but on the day she was diagnosed with pregnancy, she heard the man's words as cold as ice: "Who can really love Yumu before the pearl?"
Mingzhu, Xu Mingzhu again, her sister...

Chi Jingchuan didn't care at all whether the imperial concubine was Xu Mingzhu or Xu Mingshu. As long as she stays on her own terms and doesn't interfere with his important affairs, he is willing to give her a prosperous life.
But Xu Mingshu was as guarded as a young animal, but couldn't help but reveal his soft belly to show his kindness, and the way he had the courage to call his husband endlessly was really pitiful and cute.
Chi Jingchuan is willing to give her more, not only to marry each other and stay together day and night, but also to sleep in the same hole after death.
Even though he had never believed in ghosts and gods, he knelt before the Buddha and made a sincere wish: "May my wife be in peace, be safe and happy all her life."
But Xu Mingshu disappeared, and Chi Jingchuan searched for his wife for a long time.
Reunited after a long absence, Xu Mingshu lowered his eyes and listened to the chirping of the young girl. When he saw the Chijing River on the other side, it was as quiet as sinking water, and there was no warmth in his eyes.
Chi Jingchuan was stunned. It was he who used love to pry open the lock on her heart, and it was he who hit her hard in the name of love.
No matter what the means, he will regain her love...
Demining:
1. Double C, cruel to the heart but not to the body, 4 years age difference
2. There is a misunderstanding between the male and female protagonists. The male protagonist has not fallen in love with others and behaved intimately.
3. A growth-oriented heroine, not a perfect heroine.
