Enchanting, bewitching airhead beauty x aloof, sharp-tongued powerful official
Tang Zhilu is well-known throughout the capital as an airhead beauty.
Though her head is empty and her father holds a low-ranking post, she's voluptuous and alluring, and beautiful enough to make up for it.
She obeyed her parents' wishes and married Jiang Ji. On their wedding night, her handsome husband received an imperial decree ordering him to go to Jiangnan to investigate a case.
He was gone for three years.
The romance novels say:
[A good match can be preserved, but a doomed relationship should be cut short. A marriage contract cannot confine a woman's spirit.]
She and Jiang Ji are a doomed relationship, and she has evidence to prove it.
One, he doesn't want to share a bed with her.
Two, he doesn't give her money to spend.
Three, he never sends her letters.
Doesn't that mean he doesn't love her?
What's the point of having a pretty face? She wants to seek her own happiness.
So she sent a divorce agreement to Yuzhou,
and received a letter of release from her husband.
Jiang Ji returned from Qingxi Province after solving a major case. The emperor was delighted, and promoted him straight from Investigating Censor to Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. He instantly became one of the most powerful figures at court.
Jiang Ji was promoted, but Tang Qingluo's father got into trouble. He had backed the wrong Second Prince, and the whole family was in danger.
"A'luo, if you can't win Jiang Ji back, you can start preparing your father's funeral!"
Jiang Ji ran into the little wife he'd divorced at a teahouse.
Heard she'd hit her head falling off a horse outside the city?
She deliberately dropped her handkerchief for him.
Deliberately fell toward him.
And even wanted to ride in his carriage...
Was she... trying to seduce him?
"Does Lord Jiang have a woman he likes?"
"Yes."
Tang Zhilu felt as if she'd been struck by lightning, tears welling in her eyes: "!"
"But she once said she didn't like me."
Tang Zhilu's eyes lit up: "(☆ω☆)~"
Jiang Ji narrowed his eyes, uncertain.
Could she like him again?
*
In private, Tang Zhilu bit her handkerchief in frustration. She was no longer the good-for-nothing Tang A'luo she used to be. To save her family's lives, she had to become a shrewd, captivating woman.
She'd pretend to have amnesia and do whatever it took to hook Jiang Ji all over again!

Pre-collection novel: Husband, I'm Not an Airhead
Spoiled airhead beauty x cool, stern, dependable husband
Yu Ning was delicate and sickly, with a breathtakingly beautiful face. She was universally acknowledged as the most beautiful woman in Jiangnan.
She had a childhood sweetheart who was also her fiance, and her father was the prefect of Yuzhou. Her life had been carefree and smooth from childhood onward.
Pei Yu was the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate and a trusted aide of the emperor. Though handsome, he had never married because he was said to bring misfortune to his wives.
He came to Yuzhou under imperial orders to investigate a case. The prefect of Yuzhou, whose official record had been mediocre for years, decided to follow Princess Pingyang's example and offer Pei Yu a beauty.
That day, Yu Ning drank a spiked medicinal soup, entered the wrong room, and in her panic left behind one embroidered shoe as she fled the next morning.
When she returned home, her father was stripped of his post and arrested for massive embezzlement. Because of the huge sums involved and the officials implicated in the capital, he was soon to be escorted to Changjing.
Yu Ning had no choice but to seek help from her childhood sweetheart and fiance, but he only wanted to cut ties with her. He not only thought her stupid, but also resented that she was now the daughter of a criminal. He had long since stopped wanting to look after this sickly beauty who had nothing but a pretty face.
With nowhere else to turn, Yu Ning tearfully begged Pei Yu to take him to the capital.
The man stared at the embroidered shoe on her foot. "What will you offer me in return?"
The young woman was teary-eyed, nearly crying her heart out.
"I have nothing left. I hear Lord Pei can't find a wife. If you don't mind, A'ning is willing."
"A'ning is gentle and sweet, dignified and composed. I'll be sure to take good care of you, my lord."
Knowing she was the only woman who could get close to him, Pei Yu went along with it and accepted her offer. He needed a suitable wife to manage the household.
Only later did he learn that she was nothing like the gentle, sweet, dignified, and composed woman she'd claimed to be...
The real Yu Ning was incredibly spoiled.
She wanted silk and satin to wear, and delicacies and pastries to eat.
She couldn't stand the cold or filth.
She feared the cold, hardship, and being startled...
He could put up with all that.
There was only one thing he couldn't abide:
If he was even a little too rough at night, she would send him off to sleep in the study for three days and three nights...
How could he stand that?

Mr. Jiang should be anxious when Sister Bao stops chasing her [Cracked]
I only get one or two months of silver every month, my cousin-in-law is cheating on both sides, and my mother-in-law doesn't care about the baby girl, so just make peace with her [laughing and crying]
[Bad laugh][bad laugh][bad laugh] I also like A Luo's soft look [dog head]
She deserves to be called a stupid beauty, but even if Changfeng doesn't call her Madam, she can't just call her Tang's, it's too rude [laughs and cries]
Jiang Ji looks like the stingy Bara's main wife, but in fact he doesn't even have a status. I hope he realizes it later and opens his eyes to A Luo.
The mistresses and mistresses are all out. Mr. Jiang is in danger😄
[Orange Candy] I got it, the idiot beauty is my favorite
The beauty trap will be useful in the future, haha😄
The two men were full of hostility, and Sister Bao's reaction was: What's going on with them? [Loading]
Hahahahahahahahaha big misunderstanding [dog head]
