[Complete] The full story is finished. See below for the blurb for my upcoming novel, My Brother's Darling Wife. Please add it to your collection, dear readers~
After transmigrating, Xu Qingru went from being the founder of a business empire to a badly injured refugee. Fortunately, Jiang Shangqing, who had returned home to observe mourning, saved her and took good care of her, helping her escape her predicament. But it turned out that Jiang Shangqing was trapped in a difficult situation too, unable to make any headway.
When she saw the remarkable Jiang Shangqing being worn down by the trivialities of business until he was gaunt and exhausted, she finally took pity on him. Using repayment for saving her life as an excuse, she did everything she could to help him hold on to the family business his late father had left behind.
Over the next three years, she helped Jiang Shangqing grow the failing family business into a thriving enterprise. Her talent was part of the reason for its success, but so was his unconditional trust in her and his indulgence of her.
But once Jiang Shangqing could no longer hide his feelings for her, his usually kind mother looked down on her humble background and deemed her unworthy of being his wife. So she pretended not to notice the deep affection in his eyes and quietly left.
After leaving, she made a living by selling wine and performing, then raised funds to set up a workshop. She moved freely through the bustling streets and became a scheming merchant, widely criticized by others.
Jiang Shangqing returned to government service and used his extensive knowledge to safeguard the peace of the realm and its people. High in the halls of power, he purged corruption and became a virtuous, incorruptible official praised by all.
The distance between them was like a chasm, and they should never have crossed paths again. Yet Jiang Shangqing went to every length, even risking his reputation, to keep entangling himself with her.

The young woman had slender jade-white fingers and a tender look in her eyes. She gently wrapped her arms around his neck and murmured coyly, "Could you give me a little more time? I want to stand by your side openly and honorably."
Jiang Shangqing's warm eyes overflowed with tenderness. He gazed ardently at Xu Qingru and indulgently replied, "All right. I'll wait."
Later, after she used her business acumen to resolve a crisis threatening the realm, the emperor wanted to arrange a marriage for her by imperial decree. She flatly refused.
Only then did Jiang Shangqing realize that she had been deceiving him all along.
He wanted her to stay by his side of her own free will. If she wouldn't, then she would stay by his side anyway. He would never let her leave him again.
The refined and otherworldly Young Master Jiang went mad from that moment on.

Upcoming novel: My Brother's Darling Wife. Please add it to your collection, mwah
Chu Nanxi was born with a heart condition and was often tormented by pain.
Her idol brought her a great deal of joy and courage.
One day, she opened her eyes to see her idol's handsome face right in front of her. Overcome with excitement, Chu Nanxi threw herself at him. "Waaah, big brother!"
Chu Ran blushed and struggled free. "M-My lady, don't do that. Men and women shouldn't be so familiar."
Chu Nanxi's mind filled with questions.
Her idol hadn't been filming a costume drama lately!
.
The moment she realized she had transmigrated, Chu Nanxi smacked her thigh with delight!
Hahaha! Could there be anything better? She had transmigrated right into her idol's bed! She didn't need to follow his career anymore! She was going to be his darling wife!
She thought it was a heaven-sent encounter, but she never expected that each of her later attacks would hurt so much she'd be better off dead...
.
Li Ding'an, the crown prince of the fallen dynasty, was as handsome as a painting and possessed an extraordinary air.
He could read at three and take part in government at six, earning a reputation as a prodigy. But he was born at the wrong time. After the Chu Kingdom fell, he assumed the name Chu Ran and went into hiding in a remote corner of the land.
Unable to let go of the hatred he bore over his country's destruction and his family's deaths, yet grateful that the world was now at peace, he had no desire to stir up trouble. Chu Ran chose to live out his days as a poor farmer. He never expected the young woman he had rescued by chance to insist on marrying him!
His quiet life gained a little vitality because of her, but fate always loved to play cruel tricks...
*
The young woman's lovely face was pale. She leaned against his chest and murmured weakly, "Big brother, it hurts so much. Maybe I should just die."
Chu Ran was heartbroken. "Don't say things like that. I'll find the best doctor and get you cured."
When he was nine, his country fell and his family was destroyed, and he had been powerless to stop it. He couldn't stand by and watch her suffer for another ten years.
If fate meant to take her from him, then he would defy heaven and change her destiny!
He would make sure she lived!
The crown prince of the fallen dynasty, whose whereabouts had been unknown, finally emerged from the mountains...
Theme: May you find someone to weather every storm and walk through life hand in hand.
Emmm, these people are so annoying. The heroine doesn't want to be alone and beautiful?
Jiang's mother refused to get married at first and now she doesn't want to get married. She said that all the reasonable reasons were given to her. To put it bluntly, there is no one in the world who is worthy of his son. She should disappear as soon as possible. This kind of mother-in-law exists. If she stays married, she will suffer for the rest of her life.
Qingru, now you know, don't trust Jiang Shangqing again!!! Run quickly!!!
Good-looking(??ω??)??
Congratulations on the completion, spread the flowers ~ very beautiful!
Good fight, hahahahaha
Hahaha, my daughter is jealous
Finished spreading flowers oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
It's very sweet, but it feels like it's gone and my heart aches.
I was originally wondering if Qingqing was really abducted by a boy from the Lu family in the end, but then I thought it would be good to stop time at this moment. When she grows up, they will also grow old. Two people who are not in good health will easily make people worry about gain and loss. The author's summary of happiness at the end is also very good. I feel that you are a person with full of emotions inside. No matter how sophisticated people are in reality, they still retain a little innocence. There are already many sophisticated people, so what's wrong with retaining this innocence? Just like some people who claim to be rational ridicule sensibility, the essence is simply fear. They are afraid that sensibility will become their weakness and that they will be injured because of their sensibility. This is actually a kind of cowardice. They dare not face sensibility. How do you know that sensibility can also bring people strong faith and strength? (Quietly asking a side question, it should not be considered ky. I think the author has always called himself a "stupid author". Could he be a loyal player of the paper wedding dress game?)
