A genuine flirt x a fake aloof beauty
After her family fell into decline, Shen Shuang, who had been pampered since childhood, was sent by her parents to the capital to live with her cousin, a high-ranking official.
Her parents placed great hopes in her, hoping she would marry her cousin, support the family, and restore its former glory.
So Shen Shuang put away her spoiled ways and carefully did everything she could to please him.
One enchanting night, she summoned up her courage, dressed in sheer, misty gauze, and climbed into her cousin's bed.
But her cousin was noble and cold, and had no interest in her. He unceremoniously flipped her off the bed, then looked down at her with frosty eyes.
"Shen Shuang, why are you trying so hard to please me?"
Shen Shuang ran out of her cousin's room in tears and swore she would never marry him, even if she died.

Later, her family found another high-ranking official's only son in the capital. He was handsome and graceful, warm and gentle, and devoted to Shen Shuang. He could also support her family, so Shen Shuang decided to marry him.
But on the eve of the wedding, her cousin came stumbling into her room, drunk.
Those eyes, usually filled with the chill of mountain snow, were now burning with heat.
"Jiaojiao," she heard her usually composed and self-possessed cousin whisper hoarsely in her ear. "Be good."
Deep in the night, the fragrant breeze stirred the gauze curtains, revealing beneath them a delicate, trembling face glistening with tears.
Shen Shuang started crying again.
Weren't you the one who despised me? Sob.
