She is a divorced woman cast aside by her husband.

He is the cold and unfeeling Prince of Jiaonan.

To investigate a cold case, he and she pretend to be husband and wife and travel to a temple. From holding hands to kissing, every moment of intimacy is an act performed in front of others. But the longer they keep up the act, the more real it begins to feel. When the case is solved and they return to being strangers, Li Zhixing can't stop staring absentmindedly at her graceful figure.

When he learns that she is to marry someone else, he casts aside his royal dignity and begs her in a humble voice: "Marry me. This time, I want us to be a real married couple... the kind who share a wedding night."

There will always be someone who brings you a cool breeze in the scorching summer, offers you ripe fruit in autumn, and gives you warmth in the bitter cold of winter.

New novel: The Ugly Wife Is Here

Everyone knows the two biggest jokes in Yanjing City. First is the Liu family's illegitimate daughter, who is unbelievably ugly. Though she is dignified in character, her face is covered in pockmarks, making her impossible to look at. The young ladies of the capital's social circle have privately nicknamed her Dongshi.

The second is Xie Tian, the second young master of the Xie family. Although he was born into a military household, an accident left him disabled in childhood, and he limps when he walks. He is also terribly conceited and admires the renowned beauty of the current Eldest Princess. Boldly stopping her carriage in the street, he pours out his feelings. Only after talking until his throat is parched does the carriage curtain finally lift. A young woman with a face full of pockmarks looks at Xie Tian uncertainly. "Young master, are you asking to marry me?"

Xie Tian: "..." Heaven and earth are my witnesses, I just stopped the wrong carriage.

Three days later, an imperial decree arrives, ordering Xie Tian, the second young master of the Chixi Marquis Manor, and Liu Chen, the illegitimate daughter of the Chief Secretary's household, to marry on a date to be chosen.

From then on, Yanjing City has a third joke.

Countless people wait eagerly for them to divorce, never imagining that their marriage will last a lifetime.

Theme: Get through the days of despair, and the days that follow will be full of hope.
