Marriage first, love later | Devoted to each other | Sweet romance
After being rescued from the water, Yun Xiu realized she might be in serious trouble!
Her family consisted of no one but an orphaned girl like her and a younger brother who was deaf and mute, and they didn't have a single coin to their name...
Sure enough, a relative soon came by, "kindly" offering to arrange a marriage for her. After all, her father and brothers were dead, and there was no man in the family to take charge. But as Yun Xiu's memories gradually returned, she remembered that the man they wanted to marry her off to was old enough to be her grandfather.
With no other choice, Yun Xiu could only ask Xue Chongshan for help. He was the first person she had seen when she initially arrived in this world.
"Brother Xue, let's get married!" Yun Xiu said bluntly.
Xue Chongshan: "..."
He pretended not to hear her and walked right past her.
He thought Yun Xiu had to be crazy to say something like that right at his doorstep. Didn't she care about her reputation?!
"My brother saved your life!" Yun Xiu pressed on. "I jumped into the river because I was being forced to marry. By saving me, you actually made things worse for me."
At Yun Xiu's heartless words, Xue Chongshan's expression darkened. Then he saw her stubbornly holding back her tears.
"...I'll think about it."
As he kept thinking about it, he gradually let things take their course.
No matter how often Xue Chongshan later tried to reclaim his dignity as a husband, he always ended up falling for every smile and frown of Yun Xiu's.
