Married first, fall in love later / face-slapping romance
Xie Lanzheng had always kept a secret love deep in her heart, hidden for years and known to no one.
But one day, her brother Ying Fuan found out she had been following her secret love.
From then on, Xie Lanzheng and Ying Fuan became sworn enemies!
Fate had other plans. At a peony banquet, Xie Lanzheng and Ying Fuan were both poisoned with an aphrodisiac.
One night of passion, and what a mess it was.
Even worse, the poison would flare up every full moon.
It would happen seven times in all. If they didn't have sex to cure it, they would die suddenly.
Xie Lanzheng: Let's get married. After seven times, we must divorce!
Ying Fuan: Divorce! We absolutely have to divorce!
Ying Fuan had a terrible impression of Xie Lanzheng.
Flirtatious, wanton, and shameless.
He was a thousand times unwilling to marry her, but agreed for the sake of curing the poison.
They would divorce later anyway. It was no big deal.
But as time passed, he fell for her. His heart began to stir.
The thing Ying Fuan regretted most in his life was agreeing to Xie Lanzheng's request for a divorce...
