Before their wedding, Yu Sheng was deeply unhappy with his fiance.
A mere soldier, he was tall and looked fierce, always scowling with a murderous air.
One day, Yu Sheng saw him catch a thief in the street. One solid kick sent the thief flying several meters, and he lay there twitching before going still.
Yu Sheng burst into tears on the spot.
He thought, I'd rather die than marry Bian He.
-
Bian He couldn't stand his fiance either.
He was delicate, with slender arms and legs, and fair, soft skin. He also cried easily.
He could kill three delicate little men like that with one punch.
He thought, if I marry someone like him, the rest of my life is going to be a nightmare.
-
On their wedding day, Bian He lifted the red veil and saw two big tears roll down Yu Sheng's almond-shaped eyes.
His face was as lovely as a peach blossom, and his gaze as gentle as autumn water.
He was timid but bold enough to order him, "Y-you have to be gentle!"
Bian He gazed at him intently and bent down to kiss him.
"...All right."
-
The Yu family's sweet and delicate young man married the bravest young general in the land.
No one thought they were a good match. Some even set up bets, eager to watch the drama, wagering that they'd divorce within three years.
How infuriating!
That night, Yu Sheng put on a hood and covered his face, ready to bet that they'd divorce within three days!
He barely got started before he ran into Bian He, who had come to the gambling house in disguise.
Their eyes met. Desperate to save himself, Yu Sheng turned the accusation around: "You want to divorce me?"
Then Bian He took him along and bet all his private savings on "stay together."
From that moment on, one thin betting slip was his entire fortune.
Three years later, the couple's little ones had grown plump and rosy-cheeked, and the farce of their early days was long forgotten.
When the gambling house paid out, there were only two winners.
The whole city was abuzz, wondering who had been so prescient.
Yu Sheng flashed his little tiger teeth. Beside him stood Bian He, still radiating a fierce aura. Yu Sheng slapped two old betting slips down on the table.
"We're here to collect!"
