Comments by paragraph are now open. If you bought the whole book, please leave a five-star review. Bows. Gentle woman x cocky king [1] Miao Lan is the model socialite of Beining: beautiful, gentle, well-read, and courteous. When her engagement was announced, the public expressed widespread regret. Her betrothed, He Jingtong, has a terrible temper and a sharp tongue. He's definitely not the sort to treat a woman with tender care. [2] Two years after their engagement, He Jingtong finally returns from abroad. At the welcome party, Miao Lan arrives late. After looking around for a while, she goes up and takes a man's arm, reminding him considerately, “Jingtong, you're in a good mood today, but don't drink too much.” Everyone there sucks in a breath. The man she's holding isn't He Jingtong, but his cousin, who looks about thirty percent like him. He Jingtong narrows his eyes behind the piano in the corner and raises his glass to her. “Miss Miao, are you nearsighted or just getting farsighted? I'll book you an appointment for surgery tomorrow.” [3] This couple, married in name only, seem bound to split up sooner or later. On He Jingtong's first birthday after their wedding, his friends throw him a party, but Miao Lan doesn't show up at all. His friends sigh. So she's not even pretending anymore. After several rounds of drinks, the birthday boy is nowhere to be seen, so everyone goes looking for him. To their surprise, on the terrace, He Jingtong has Miao Lan pinned firmly in his arms, but his voice sounds far more plaintive than anyone would expect: “You won't even celebrate my birthday with me. What did I do to offend you this time?” #Cocky king gets humbled and accepts his fate #When he's not being sharp-tongued, he's pretty sweet too #My wife loves me, my wife, come cuddle #Marriage first, love later; they get the marriage license and... Hilarious, would He Jingtong really wait until the next day? #Of course, his wife has to say yes first #Clearly, this is a lighthearted sweet romance The older sister and brother-in-law from my completed novel The Ninth Confession appear in this story.
