[This novel has been revised. Pirated versions don't make sense, so please support the official release.] [Coming soon: Jasmine Love Poem. The second male lead takes the spotlight, with a marriage of convenience turning into love.] 1. Yun Qing had loved sticking close to Qi Han ever since she was little. The reason was simple: Qi Han was handsome. Seeing them together, the elders of the Yun and Qi families smiled and arranged a childhood betrothal for them. From then on, a little tail always followed Qi Han around, tugging on his sleeve and begging for a hug. "Big Brother, Mom says you'll marry me one day." "I'll be really, really good." Qi Han's friends teased him about having a little wife who was always keeping tabs on him. But the proud, strong-willed boy wanted to do as he pleased and didn't want to be tied down. He mercilessly trampled on her feelings, yet grew used to everything she did for him. Yun Qing always thought she wasn't good enough. She even started learning to cook, then happily brought Qi Han something she had made, only for him to throw it away without a second thought. One day, she accidentally overheard Qi Han talking to his friends. "Who'd marry that clingy pest? She's so annoying." Yun Qing finally gave up and went abroad as an exchange student. 2. Only after Yun Qing left did Qi Han realize what he had lost. His heart felt empty. Still, he held on to hope. Yun Qing still liked him. How could she forget all those years of growing up together in just a few years? But when they met again after she returned to the country, she was arm in arm with a man whose looks, figure, and presence were every bit as impressive as his. Qi Han panicked. His lips trembling, he asked, "Qingqing, who is he?" The girl who used to follow him meekly everywhere smiled brightly and openly at him this time. "My boyfriend." The man beside her was elegant and composed, smiling at her with indulgent affection. "Darling, what do you want for dinner? I'll make it for you." Yun Qing pouted at him. "I want braised pork. This time... I'll make it for you." Qi Han's pupils contracted. That was the first dish she had ever learned to cook, just because he loved it. Back then, he had tossed it aside as if it were nothing. 3. Lu Lingze, a business prodigy, was ruthless and merciless, and kept his distance from women. Everyone knew his name and feared him. What no one knew was that nine years ago, after his mother died, he was driven out of his home and wandered from place to place, trudging alone through the darkness. A kind, smiling girl gave him a steaming boxed meal, and he saw hope again. From then on, for nine years, all his longing and affection were for her. Watching her pour out her heart again and again, only to be treated coldly, made Lu Lingze's heart ache. Yet there was nothing he could do. Now, at last, he could embrace his goddess and shower her with love.

Once they got together, she was obedient and sensible, never picking fights or making a fuss. She carefully maintained their relationship, even though he was cold and taciturn, and never returned her affection. On her birthday, she waited all night, full of anticipation, and called him countless times, but he never showed up. When a sudden bout of stomach pain sent her to the hospital, she discovered him tenderly caring for another woman. He showed her a patience and tenderness Shu Mo had never seen before. 2. Shu Mo came to her senses and decisively ended their relationship. Heartbroken, she sat sobbing quietly on a bench by the road. Before long, the sky darkened and rain began to fall. A man holding an umbrella patterned with jasmine flowers stood before her. He looked languid, pain filling his peach-blossom eyes, and his voice was warm and magnetic. "Little Jasmine, don't cry. Your Second Brother Rong is here." Seeing the girl with tear-blurred, sorrowful eyes made his heart ache. After taking her home, he went to get justice for her. He struck without mercy, his gaze fierce. "Xie Yan'an, you're not worthy of her love." It was the first time he had ever lost control. 3.

On the cover were the words: Mon petit jasmin My little jasmine.
