Also known as Who Shall I Share It With?

The powerful Marquis of Linjiang had a fiancee from a merchant family. She was no good at music, chess, calligraphy, or painting, but she was especially skilled at calculation and spending money. At first, Song Heng thought this was truly an ill-matched union.

Later, Song Heng thought, They match. Damn it, they match perfectly. Anyone who says otherwise, drag them out!

One day, the people of Chang'an were abuzz with accusations that Marquis Song Heng of Linjiang abused his power and was fond of slaughtering people.

Shen Ruo was furious. She clapped her hands, called over her maid, exchanged thirty thousand strings of copper coins, and set up a stall at the East Market entrance.

Anyone who praised Song Heng could collect ten copper coins. There was no limit.

The crowd soon grew boisterous. For the first time in his life, Song Heng learned that compliments such as "kind-hearted" and "loves small animals" could actually be applied to him.

The following is the blurb for the new story.

Three years ago, Qin Zhi was rejected by her childhood sweetheart. They parted ways, with one heading west to Chang'an and the other going north.

Three years later, Qin Zhi arrived in Chang'an for the first time and met her childhood sweetheart, who had risen to a high position. He kept making pitiful little noises to curry favor with her, and she thought he was sick. Seriously sick.

One day, Cui Xun fought a great battle against the enemy. After winning, he returned, clutching his chest and frowning as he asked, "Why did you do this to me?"

Qin Zhi, having no idea what he meant, felt her heart tighten. Could he have mistaken her for a spy? She asked timidly, "What have I done?"

Cui Xun's frown eased. "You made me fall for you this much."

Qin Zhi fought the urge to draw her blade and said, "I think you have a sickness."

Cui Xun replied, "You're right. I'm sick with lovesickness."

Qin Zhi cursed inwardly: ...He's really sick!

And seriously sick at that.

You have an illness, and it's called lovesickness.

Reader's guide: 1. The female lead can fight, but the male lead is even better at it.

2. An unconventional second-chance romance, childhood sweethearts rekindle their relationship.

3. There is a reason for the rejection in the blurb.

Theme: Even if spring returns, who shall I share it with? I shall share it with you.
