Not long after, Shen Yue says there's been a burglar at her house and she's scared, asking Lin Lu to stay with her.

A little later, when they're going to bed, Shen Yue moves closer and turns Lin Lu into her human pillow.

For five years, they share a bed and take care of each other.

I Married a Young Widow Whose Husband Was Cursed to Die is ongoing

Blurb

Jiang Huaiyuan, the eldest son born to a concubine, was treated as a thorn in her side by her stepmother from childhood. While her father was away and unable to return home, the stepmother had her adopted by the eldest branch of the family, whose head was presumed dead abroad, making her their heir.

But soon afterward, her nominal father not only turned out to be alive, but also returned with honors and imperial rewards, as well as a hereditary title. This once again pushed her into the center of a storm.

Her stepmother, after hearing some rumor from someone, found her a marriage she couldn't refuse: to a young widow from a distant branch of the imperial family, said to bring death to her husbands.

She wanted Jiang Huaiyuan to die in a way that would seem natural.

.

On the first day of their marriage, Jiang Huaiyuan shoved the bride aside, saying she was in the way of her nap.

On the second day, the bride was nearly molested, and Jiang Huaiyuan wanted to watch the show.

When it was time to consummate the marriage, Jiang Huaiyuan said, "My wife, I don't know the rites of the bedchamber."

The bride said, "I'll teach you."

Jiang Huaiyuan said, "I... I'm still young..."

A month after the wedding, the bride's family brought a vicious dog to their home.

The bride said, "I heard you want to take a concubine to give the Jiang family an heir?"

Jiang Huaiyuan: "..."

.

Years later, in the main hall of the Kingdom of Quzhao, Jiang Huaiyuan saw Huo Qing, the wife she had lost and longed for day and night.

The Empress of Quzhao asked Huo Qing, "Is this your kept lover in the Kingdom of Beijin?"

Huo Qing didn't even glance at Jiang Huaiyuan. She bowed and replied, "Yes."
