I Made My Husband So Mad He Died Again

[Main story complete]

#See my other upcoming novel of the same type: My Cousin Died of Anger Again!

The only daughter of Yangzhou's richest man, Dou Luqiong, married Wei Jie, the second son of the Wei family in the capital, when she came of age at fifteen. He was ten years older than her.

After they married, Wei Jie slept in his study. Dou Luqiong tugged at his sleeve and pleaded, "Husband, spend some time with me."

Wei Jie wouldn't let her touch him in bed. At night, Dou Luqiong would roll into his arms and act coy. "Husband, Qiongqiong didn't mean to."

When Wei Jie went to the government office to work, he caught his wife, disguised as a low-ranking clerk, and tried to throw her out. Dou Luqiong wailed, "Sir, you've scared the life out of your subordinate!"

At last, Wei Jie could take no more and swore he would divorce his gluttonous, weepy, childish wife.

Then he was suddenly struck by terrible news: his wife had been kidnapped by bandits at the Lantern Festival, and her whereabouts were unknown. No one knew if she was alive or dead.

His strength left him in an instant, as if his soul had abandoned his body.

Ever since finding the divorce papers in her husband's study and reading all his complaints about her, Dou Luqiong had grown angrier by the day.

He said she was greedy. She was still growing! What did an old man know?

He said she cried too much. Well, he was always so sharp-tongued and got on her nerves!

He said she was too clingy. Dou Luqiong felt even more wronged. So you didn't enjoy it when I threw myself into your arms?

So she took advantage of being kidnapped by bandits to fake her death and escape back to her parents' home in Yangzhou.

What a jerk. I'm done having you for a husband!

Upcoming in my author page: My Cousin Died of Anger Again!

He Lan Xuan had been engaged to her cousin since childhood. They grew up together and were close as children. At first, her cousin was as handsome as Song Yu and as strong as Guan Yu, and he was reserved and upright. He Lan Xuan had no objections.

But after she actually married into the Chu family, she discovered that after all those years apart, the cousin who had once indulged her in everything had become a cold, aloof, pompous old stick-in-the-mud. He was insufferable.

She spent her days dressing up, applying makeup, and wearing a different outfit every day. Her cousin gave her a cold glance. "You should spend more time on serious matters."

She slept until late morning and rose lazily. Her cousin frowned. "What kind of behavior is that?"

Even in bed, he could pull away at the crucial moment and get up. "Once is enough. Don't be greedy." He didn't care that his wife was looking at him with irresistible allure.

He Lan Xuan was furious. I won't put up with you.

She spent as much money as Chu Yusheng had in his storeroom, buying jewelry and clothes to show off in front of him.

Chu Yusheng called her lazy, so she propped herself up on her pillow. "Mm. I'm certainly too lazy to deal with you."

At last, Chu Yusheng was panting in bed. A sly glint flashed in her eyes as she kicked him away. "A little friction is enough. Don't be greedy. Go hit yourself with a shoe insole a couple of times."

Chu Yusheng was furious.

Later, He Lan Xuan could no longer stand this miserable life and slapped him hard. "Chu, I'm divorcing you."

Chu Yusheng finally abandoned his reserve and rigid principles, pleading softly, "Cousin, you can't."

A story about a husband who fails to keep his wife in line and gets disciplined instead.

Both devoted to one another + marriage first, love later + four-year age gap + he has to win her back

Theme: Sincerity matters most.
