Coaxing My Sweetheart

Jiang Suiyuan was a country girl the marquis's household had brought back from the countryside. Everyone in the capital looked down on her, especially her refined and elegant fiance.

She swore to make everyone in the capital see her in a new light.

After staying cooped up for three whole days, Jiang Suiyuan finally came up with a brilliant plan:

She would win over her imperial cousin and ask him to arrange a marriage for her!

She refused to believe they would still dare look down on her once the emperor had arranged her marriage!

Lu Shixing was poisoned as a child and suffers from a strange illness. Whenever it flares up, blood is sure to be spilled.

Until his little cousin Jiang Suiyuan entered the palace.

She was unsophisticated and vain, with none of the elegance expected of a noble young lady.

But she told him amusing tales of country life, described the lively year-end ceremonies to thank the gods, and excitedly picked the first peach blossom of the new year for him.

...He could put up with her, just this once.

On the day Jiang Suiyuan turned eighteen, after two years of her wholehearted devotion, he magnanimously agreed to grant her one wish.

Her eyes gleamed with anticipation. "Really? Anything I want?"

Lu Shixing nodded.

Even if she greedily wanted to be empress, he could reluctantly grant her that.

"You want to be empress..."

"I want you to arrange a marriage for me, Cousin!"

Lu Shixing: ?!

All of Jiang Suiyuan's careful flattery and tender affection had been for another man.

Lu Shixing, who had not had an episode in a long time, gripped her chin. His eyes reddened as he gritted his teeth:

"Jiang Suiyuan, dream on!"

[Quick Guide]:

1. One-on-one romance, both leads' first time, happy ending. The male lead is the adopted son of the female lead's aunt. They are not blood relatives; the cousin act is just part of the game.

2. A healing, sweet romance about a young man and woman falling in love. This is not a forced romance.

3. The male lead isn't that crazy. He's just a sick little "kitty." The female lead strokes his fur a little, and he gets better again.
