Story blurb:

Luo Yanze, heir to a secluded family, is exceptionally handsome but extremely frail. The head of the Luo family has searched far and wide for famous doctors, but none can cure his most treasured grandson. In the end, he takes the advice of a charlatan and asks the Hua family for one of their daughters to marry Luo Yanze.

The Hua daughters are all beautiful and talented. When they hear they're expected to marry Luo Yanze, a frail, sickly man with little name recognition among high society, they each bring a temporary boyfriend back to the Hua family and firmly reject the match.

The biased Hua Dongliang, faced with his current wife's tearful pleas, has no choice but to set his sights on Hua Rong, who grew up in a mountain temple, and send her to marry into the Luo family...

Luo Yanze is against the idea. He gathers a group of people to give his future wife a warning. Then, to his astonishment, he watches the girl who perfectly fits his every ideal perform a flawless Five Elements Fist routine and take everyone down in three minutes...

Luo Yanze: "...To keep the old folks from getting upset, I'll make a sacrifice and reluctantly agree to this marriage."

He falls for her!

Next up: The Princess Consort Only Wants to Be a Widow

On the day the third daughter of the Duke of Rong's household turns sixteen, at the hour of the dragon, Prince Zhan breaks off his engagement to her and marries her second sister instead. At the hour of the goat, the emperor issues an edict betrothing her to Xiao Yu, the only prince of another surname in the Great Sheng Empire.

At the hour of the rooster, news arrives that Xiao Yu has died in battle. At the hour of the dog, the humiliated and mocked third daughter hangs herself from a beam with a white sash.

Mu Shisheng is killed in an explosion while carrying out a mission. When she opens her eyes, she discovers she's become the third daughter of the Duke of Rong's household.

She has a prince's manor, servants, heaps of silver, guards and stewards, and no man around to bother her (a mansion, a luxury carriage, people to wait on her, a huge inheritance, and a widow's single life).

Marrying into the family will give her a noble title and let her run the household. It's practically the ideal life Mu Shisheng had always dreamed of in her previous life.

She eats well, sleeps well, and waits for her wedding day. Then she happily marries Xiao Yu's memorial tablet and plans to live a life of luxury as a leisurely princess consort.

Just after she finishes taking stock of the manor's riches, she suddenly hears that Xiao Yu has returned to the capital...

Mu Shisheng: Can I still ask for half the estate and a divorce?

Little scene:

At their first meeting, Xiao Yu says, "As long as you obediently do as I say, I'll make sure you have plenty to eat and drink. When we divorce, I'll also give you a substantial sum to live on..."

Later, Xiao Yu says, "As long as you don't divorce me, I'll do whatever you say. Everything I own is yours too..."

Love, Right on Time

When Wen Yixin married Pei Jin, she was still thinking about someone else, someone she had loved with all her heart.

That person was her first love. They had been together for seven years. When he forced her to leave, the love they'd once sworn would last forever turned to poison, piercing her heart and eating away at her until she could hardly bear the pain.

After they married, they treated each other with respect and lived in harmony. Their life looked calm and uneventful, at least to her.

Until the night of their first wedding anniversary.

Candlelight, red wine, a diamond ring, a luxurious suite: the scene seemed strangely familiar.

She was very drunk, her senses muddled, and a familiar figure appeared to overlap with the one before her...

As they lost themselves in each other, she dug her nails into Pei Jin's back and tremulously called out the name she'd kept locked away deep in her heart for so long: "Jiang Heng!"

She waited for him to ask for a divorce. She would accept any terms. After all, he had always been proud, and there was no way he could tolerate such a humiliating disgrace.

Three days passed, and still nothing happened.

She was so anxious she could barely sit still, suffering as though she were being slowly tortured. She printed out a divorce agreement and finally went to find him. "I'm sorry. Let's get divorced."

The carpet was full of burn holes, and cigarette butts littered the room. The man's hair was disheveled, and he looked haggard. He took the divorce agreement, tore it to shreds in front of her, and spoke through bloodshot eyes, his voice vicious: "Divorce? Don't even think about it.

"So what if you're in love? It's not like I can't give you love!"

Love has to come at the right time. Wait for me to dig him out of your heart, then put myself in his place!
