Lu Xingzhou had always thought that Shen Shiqiu liked him, just like all his other admirers.
When it was hot, she brought him water. When it was cold, she brought him clothes. When it rained, she brought him an umbrella. On sunny days, she walked home with him. She never failed to ask after him and make sure he was all right.
So when Shen Shiqiu took advantage of his midday nap to lean quietly beside him and gently lift the hair from his forehead,
Lu Xingzhou assumed she was going to sneak a kiss.
Just as he was about to open his eyes and expose her...
The girl suddenly let go.
Shen Shiqiu sighed softly, her voice filled with disappointment.
"Why hasn't it been born yet?"
Lu Xingzhou: ???!!!
P.S. The heroine was ill in the past and believes she's a Pixiu, while her deskmate is a money tree that can give birth to little coins.

[Blurb 1]
After being deposed, Shen Shi'an fell from the lofty status of crown prince to that of a commoner, imprisoned in the Cold Palace with only one maid by his side.
The young maid was sensible and obedient, working tirelessly. Whenever she had something to eat, she saved it for the crown prince.
Unfortunately, the crown prince paid no attention to her. In Shen Shi'an's eyes, a maid was always just a maid.
He knew Ming Yao admired him, and he knew that when he was asleep, she would secretly call him her husband.
Husband. That was a title only the crown princess had the right to use. Ming Yao was naturally unworthy.
As torrential rain poured down, Shen Shi'an clamped his fingers around Ming Yao's neck, nearly choking her. "Remember your place."
He spoke coldly, flicked his sleeve, and left.
Ming Yao was left kneeling in the rain all night.
[Blurb 2]
After three years lying low and enduring hardship, Shen Shi'an finally reclaimed his position as crown prince and moved out of the Cold Palace.
A steady drizzle fell, just like on the day Shen Shi'an had been demoted.
His gaze was cold and heartless. He slowly turned the agarwood beads on his wrist as he listened to the trembling eunuch ask how Ming Yao should be dealt with.
"She's just a concubine." Shen Shi'an spoke softly, unconcerned.
He thought Ming Yao was lowborn, but she was pretty and obedient, and devoted to him. If she became pregnant someday, he could always raise her rank.
But Shen Shi'an never saw Ming Yao again.
On the day he returned to the Eastern Palace, a fire suddenly broke out in the Cold Palace. The blaze burned for three days and three nights. In the end, they carried out only one body, burned beyond recognition.
Shen Shi'an went completely mad. He thought Ming Yao had been lost forever in that fire.
Yet one day, while traveling south, he unexpectedly came across a woman who looked exactly like Ming Yao. She was holding a man's hand, and the two of them were leading a child.
The family looked blissfully happy.
The man also had a beauty mark beneath his eye, just like Shen Shi'an.
That was the place Ming Yao had loved most.
Theme: Live your life with determination.

New article "Broken Branches", please collect it! Copywriting In the tenth year after their marriage, Song Lingzhi finally fell in love with Shen Yanhan. The world only knows that the master of the Song family was far-sighted and promised Song Lingzhi to Shen Yan early. After Shen Yan ascended the throne, Song Lingzhi rose from a lowly merchant's daughter to the queen. However, no one knew that this marriage was arranged by Song Lingzhi shamelessly. Shen Yan liked gentle and virtuous women, so Song Lingzhi worked hard to play the role of a good wife. However, it is still far from enough. She watched Shen Yan carry newcomers to the palace door after door, and watched him and the imperial concubine playing the piano and playing the piano. Song Lingzhi finally became disheartened. When the oil ran out and the lamp dried up, Song Lingzhi returned to fifteen years old overnight.

However, she didn't expect that on her wedding night, she saw Shen Yan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. The man had a clear look on his face and stabbed her newlywed husband with a sword.

Once he was deposed, Shen Shi'an was reduced from the lofty position of the Crown Prince to a commoner, imprisoned in the cold palace with only one maid to follow him. The little maid is sensible and obedient, and works hard without complaining. As long as she has a bite to eat, she will leave it to His Highness the Crown Prince. It's a pity that His Royal Highness turned a blind eye to this. In Shen Shi'an's eyes, a maid will always be a maid. He knew that Ming Yao admired him, and he also knew that he would secretly call his husband when he was asleep. Husband, that is what the Crown Princess is qualified to call, and Ming Yao is naturally not worthy. The heavy rain was pouring, and Shen Shi'an pinched Ming Yao's neck tightly with his fingers, nearly suffocating him: "Remember your identity." He said coldly and left with his sleeves. Tuliu Mingyao knelt in the rain all night. After three years of dormancy and suffering, Shen Shi'an finally regained the position of crown prince and moved out of the cold palace. The drizzle is continuous, just like the day Shen Shian was demoted. His eyes were cold and ruthless, and the Canaan wood beads on his wrists were turning lightly, and he listened to the trembling servants asking how to place Ming Yao. "Just a concubine." Shen Shi'an said softly, not caring. He thought that Ming Yao had a humble status, but he was valued for being well-behaved and beautiful, and he was devoted to himself. If she got pregnant in the future, it would be okay to raise her status. It's a pity that Shen Shi'an didn't wait for Ming Yao. On the day of returning to the East Palace, things suddenly went wrong in Leng Palace. The fire burned for three days and three nights, and in the end, only an unrecognizable body was lifted out. Shen Shi'an went completely crazy. He thought Ming Yao had stayed in that fire forever. But he didn't expect that one day, when he was touring the south, he suddenly met a woman who looked exactly like Ming Yao. She was holding a man's hand, and they were holding a child. The whole family is enjoying themselves. The man also had a tear mole on his face, just like himself. That was Ming Yao's favorite place before.
