Lin Pingping was so beautiful that everyone said it was a pity he had grown up in a village. With his looks, he would have been more than qualified to marry into a rich family!
In his previous life, Lin Pingping was deeply affected by these remarks. Longing for a better background and a wealthy marriage, he left Chaxiang Village and returned to the Chengyang Earl's estate. In the end, it cost him his life.
Reborn, he got a second chance.
Lin Pingping: I need to get married before they find me!
So, as Gu Qiying passed by on his way to school, Lin Pingping slipped and stumbled. Gu Qiying reacted quickly and caught him.
Lin Pingping: Scholar Gu, you risked your life to save me. I have no way to repay you, so I'll give myself to you!
Gu Qiying: ??? Who am I? Where am I? What did I do???
In a fit of righteous indignation, Lin Pingping demanded to get married: Gu Qiying, you just touched me, so you have to take responsibility. You have to bring betrothal gifts to my house tomorrow and ask for my hand!
Gu Qiying: I just...
Before Gu Qiying could finish, the young man opposite him burst into tears and cursed him as a heartless scoundrel.
Gu Qiying: I'll marry you!!! I'll come ask for your hand tomorrow!
Lin Pingping immediately stopped crying and grinned slyly. “If you don't show up, you're a puppy!”
This was the man who had remained unmarried his whole life for Lin Pingping in his previous life. Lin Pingping had already made up his mind: he'd marry him, even if he had to throw a tantrum and refuse to take no for an answer.
