My other book, A Handbook for Raising the Crown Princess, is now open for reading. Please add it to your collection QAQ
Chu Cheng is a stunning beauty, raised in the lap of luxury. Unfortunately, she has suffered from a heart condition since childhood. She can barely walk without gasping for breath, and the doctor says she won't live to see twenty.
By coincidence, Lu Changzhou, heir to the Pingyang Marquis's household and the unreachable dream of every noblewoman in Bianjing, has a strange illness and coughs blood every day. They say he doesn't have long to live, either.
Both families are frantic and want to try a wedding to bring good luck to the sick.
Chu Cheng clutches her chest and says, “My lucky husband has to be better-looking than Lu Changzhou.”
Lu Changzhou laughs coldly, coughing blood as he does. “My lucky bride has to be gentler than Chu Cheng.”
Everyone knows the two sickly young people can't stand each other. Neither would ever choose the other. Until one night at a palace banquet, Chu Cheng is set up and drinks wine laced with something. By a twist of fate, she takes refuge in Lu Changzhou's room.
The next day, the two, their innocence gone, sit in silence for five hours before having no choice but to discuss marriage.
The girl angrily bites the back of Lu Changzhou's hand and snaps, “I'm not marrying you! There are plenty of lucky husbands better-looking than you!”
Lu Changzhou strokes the deep tooth mark and coaxes her. “But there isn't a lucky bride gentler than you, so I'm afraid you're the only one for me.”
The man coaxes and cajoles until the girl finally agrees to the marriage. But after returning home, Chu Cheng regrets it. They're both so sickly, won't they end up killing each other if they marry?
After much thought, Chu Cheng decides to lie low and flees with her bags in the middle of the night.
The next day, Lu Changzhou comes to propose. When he learns she's vanished, the young marquis, who usually never shows his emotions, turns grim and crushes the cup in his hand on the spot...
That night, imperial guards surround the capital, and flames light up the sky. Chu Cheng is caught in a dark alley.
Lu Changzhou sits astride his horse at the front. All tenderness is gone from his eyes as he says coldly, “You think you can have your fun with me and then abandon me? Don't even think about it!”
Chu Cheng: “Waaah...”
After that, the two sickly young people can only bring each other good luck. But no one has faith in their marriage. Everyone knows they're both frail and were born with unlucky fates that bring misfortune to family and friends. They're all waiting to see which of them will bring about the other's death first.
But half a month after the wedding, Lu Changzhou is strong enough to lift a sword. Six months later, he can go to war. A few years after that, they're both alive and well, and Chu Cheng is pregnant.
It is a stormy day, with thunder rolling and lightning flashing. Lu Changzhou, now regent, abandons the emperor and his ministers and rushes home through the rain.
The man covers Chu Cheng's ears with his hands and kisses her forehead. “Don't be scared. I'm here.”
A delicate, sickly beauty x a man who pretends to be aloof but is actually cunning and possessive

Coming soon: A Handbook for Raising the Crown Princess
Wei Miao is the awkwardly situated adopted daughter of a duke's household. She's quiet and stammers when she speaks. After her true origins are revealed, she is sent to a temple for a life of religious study at the age of five.
Life at the temple is hard. The monks mistreat her, someone steals her allowance, and the food is both scarce and awful. Wei Miao is hungry every day.
A big brother lives next door. He's as handsome as an immortal, kind, and gentle. The food in his house smells so good it carries for miles, and Wei Miao longs for a taste.
One day, she gets too hungry to hold back. She picks up her little bowl, knocks on the neighbor's door, and asks timidly, “C-can I eat at your house? Just one... one bowl.”
After that, Wei Miao often shamelessly goes next door to mooch a meal. But Big Brother never minds. He even asks thoughtfully, “How many bowls would you like today, Shui Shui?”
The crown prince is the subject of rumors everywhere. People say he's vicious, and that if you say the wrong thing, he'll turn you into a human-skin lantern.
Wei Miao hunches her shoulders. “The crown prince is so scary. I feel sorry for anyone who has to be around him.”
Big Brother nods as he feeds her. “They really are unfortunate.”
Wei Miao says, “If I insult him, will he hear me? I could get my head chopped off.”
Big Brother pinches her chubby cheek. “He wouldn't have the heart to.”
Later, when Wei Miao comes of age, she has to return to the capital to marry. She has always thought Big Brother is an unlucky scholar who keeps failing the exams and is still a bachelor at his age. Poor thing.
Grateful for all he's done, Wei Miao says, “Don't lose heart. I'll find a way to get you a wife.”
Big Brother smiles meaningfully. “You promise?”
Then one day, Wei Miao accompanies the Duchess into the palace. The crown prince arrives, and everyone kneels in silence. Wei Miao sneaks a look up and meets a pair of smiling eyes.
The man reaches out to her. “Shui Shui, come here.”
Everyone thinks the adopted daughter is studying at the temple, and that even if she isn't being tormented to death, she's become a coarse little nun.
But at the palace banquet, the young woman is breathtakingly beautiful, with a quiet, graceful bearing. At the Eastern Palace, the people from the temple treat her like royalty, and the moody crown prince himself picks up a pastry and feeds it to Wei Miao. “Open wide.”
You've been mooching food and lodging for so long. It's time to become my crown princess.
The child he raised will be his for life.
The blurb has been screenshotted.
Theme: Stay hopeful and move forward bravely.
To be honest, after reading this, I still refuse to believe that my money was actually spent on such an article. After reading it in one day, I had mixed feelings in my heart, with only one word: loss. When I first saw this introduction, I thought it was a good start to the story. It was indeed a good start, but it was also the biggest selling point of this story. Whether it was the memories of the heroine's past life or the hero's accidental recollections of the past, including the so-called small foreshadowings, I was almost completely unfazed because I could guess the ending when I saw it. Of course, as a book about rebirth, I cannot ask the author to be very original in his writing. However, if we ignore the hypocrisy of the female protagonist, the mindless machinations of the male protagonist, the single-cell strategy of the villain, and the logic bug of the male protagonist's 43-year-old adoptive father who has been a womanizer for many years but falls in love with a girl sixteen years younger than him at first sight, what other shining points can we find in this article. Of course, the male and female protagonists are indeed very sweet. If you don't watch it with your brains, it's really good. In short, I have a lot of things to do and am picky. Please don't listen to me and don't worry about falling into the trap.
In fact, I thought I was a be in my previous life, but turned into a he. This way I can't live up to their dreams. Oh, I want to see the abuse.
Ahhhhhh, why do I feel like I am angry at someone else?
Love talk boy? The scheming and dog-like regent
I have a question, wasn't Chu Cheng dead in his previous life? When Lu Changzhou came back, there were only corpses.
Dear, after you finish writing the story about your past life, can you thank the princess and Meng Yan? And Lu Shao marries a wife, (I want to see Lu Shao get slapped in the face, preferably the one where the young daughter-in-law falls in love at first sight, hehehe)
Eh~ Take it by force, oh, oh, oh, I thought it was Chu Chengcheng who took the initiative.
How to participate in the lottery?
Frog: Solitary, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely—!
Lu Changzhou:=Dan=No barking! Getting married this month!
Mr. Hou is domineering, this time I support you in snatching a woman, I will give you this military shovel, and dig hard for me!
