"Traditional embroidery, sewn by a ghost artisan with a century of experience. Setting the trends in the ghost world."

Wen Beizhi, dressed in a qipao, enters with graceful steps. She taps the model's chest with her folding fan. "Expert tailoring. Look how it accentuates his figure."

A ghost neighbor from the next city, clutching his burial goods: "Boss, I want to have some clothes custom-made this time. Do you think these things will be enough?"

Synopsis for the historical romance A Springtime Tryst

Ruan Mianshuang is the most beautiful woman in Jiangnan.

In the third year of Pingzhao, her family is struck by disaster. She travels from Jiangnan to the capital to seek refuge with her uncle, now a marquis.

But her aunt, Madam Shen, dislikes her and thinks she's too delicate and alluring.

To survive, she is cautious in everything she does.

Half a year after entering the household, she finally meets her cousin in name, Shen Yanqing, the youngest grand secretary in Xiyue.

Though captivated by his looks and physique, she only dares to retreat two steps and bow.

--

Shen Yanqing became famous at a young age and holds a high position. Cold and composed, he is like an elegant orchid and a fine jade, and the beloved of many noble young ladies in the capital.

The first time he sees Ruan Mianshuang,

he thinks his cousin is so delicate, just like the kitten he raised as a child.

He only means to take care of her a little, but ends up giving her his heart as well.

Well, if that's the case, what's wrong with keeping another kitten?

--

Three years into their marriage, Ruan Mianshuang has yet to conceive. Already feeling guilty, she unexpectedly learns the truth about her infertility outside Shen Yanqing's study.

Shen Yanqing is about to explain when an imperial decree arrives without warning.

Before leaving, Shen Yanqing tells Ruan Mianshuang to wait for him at home.

But his usually obedient wife dares to leave quietly, with nothing but a letter of separation.

The man laughs in fury.

Not long after, he finds the little liar in the water towns of Jiangnan, the one who promised to wait at home for him. As luck would have it, she's tugging at the doorway with her childhood sweetheart, a fellow townsman.

"Zhizhi, I'm not dead yet! Who do you think you're marrying while carrying my child?"

1v1, both are each other's first and only.
