Pure sweetness, no angst, first love for both, love at first sight. A cute little sweet treat, please add it to your collection. If it's not your thing, feel free to check out my other stories. I'm firmly committed to one-on-one relationships in both body and heart.
Xu An and Lu Lin first met on the night of the Shangyuan Festival when they were children. Little Xu An watched Lu Lin float a lotus lantern and swore he would marry her one day, whether he had to throw a tantrum, roll on the ground, or wheedle her into it.
When Lu Lin first saw Xu An, she was struck by how cute he was. Then she watched him run over to her, buying her candied hawthorns, pastries, and hairpins until he'd spent all his money. He even nearly gave her the jade pendant he was wearing. As they parted, she asked Xu An, "Why are you being so nice to me? The teacher says you must have an ulterior motive."
Xu An's little face flushed red. Blushing and unusually shy, he said softly, "You're so pretty. Would you be my wife? I'll always treat you even better than this."
And so that promise came true, lasting a lifetime.
Lu Lin hadn't known at first that Xu An came from such a prominent family. Having a family like that could be a real headache. Sure enough, when Xu An had to take up an official post in a border town, and the fate of his family was at stake, Lu Lin stepped forward.
"Wife, this is so hard QAQ~"
"It's all right, husband. This is a student I've sponsored. He'll help make sure nothing goes wrong. And if he can't, I've sponsored plenty more just like him."
"Wife, the city is so poor, and the rich families have joined forces QAQ"
"Don't worry, husband. I'll open a branch of my shop here!"
"Wife, the barbarians are attacking. Run! I'll hold them off!"
"Don't worry, husband. I've already contacted General Chang, who's stationed nearby. Neither of us will come to any harm."
"Wife, you're amazing!"
"Don't you think I'm overstepping?"
"Of course not! I'm so happy I got to marry someone as amazing as you." Wife, you're the best, let me cling to you~
Mutual doting.
