[Marriage Before Love]
1. Song Yi was ordered by imperial decree to marry Gu Huai, the third son of Prince Rui. Everyone said he was a foolish little boy.
Even the honest Prince Rui wasn't offended when he heard that. He told her, "My third son is someone you won't regret marrying."
Third Master Gu had once been elegant and handsome, with an imposing bearing, and was pursued by the women of Shengjing.
Then he suffered a serious illness. He lost his sense of taste and grew dull-witted, spending every day sitting foolishly on his bed and drooling.
Amid the jeers, Song Yi climbed into the bridal sedan. On their wedding night, her foolish husband ran out in a delirious frenzy.
The servants in the manor all felt sorry for the beautiful bride. Such a lovely young woman had married into the family only to become a widow in all but name.
But in reality...
"You little brat, go make me dinner."
"Come here and massage my legs."
"How much money did your father give you? Hand it all over. Don't you dare keep any secret savings, got it?"
2. Song Yi went out to have fun with the money her foolish husband had given her, only to have her purse stolen.
They said the owner of this place was quite mysterious. His businesses spanned every trade, he was ruthless and vicious, and no one had ever seen his true face.
As the enforcers closed in, Song Yi's legs went weak.
But just as they were about to put a sack over her head and tie her up to carry her away, a man approached at an unhurried pace.
His eyes were bright, his brows swept back to his temples, and his every gesture was carefree and unrestrained. His bearing was truly extraordinary.
The enforcers didn't dare slight him. They hurriedly knelt and greeted him: "Third Master."
The man came up to her. His eyes were dark and clear, his expression cool and proud, as he stared straight at her.
"What, are you craving your husband's cooking?"
