A Marriage Contract for the Flower Festival

The End. I’d love a five-star rating if you enjoyed it. Thank you! My next book is Gentle Marriage. Married first, fall in love later | Complete strangers | Slow-burn romance | He falls first Gentle, aloof lawyer × steady, cunning diplomat 1- A year after graduating, Wen Qianyue married a stranger. The day before they registered their marriage, she met her future husband, He Jingyao, a man as refined and gracious as a spring breeze beneath a clear sky. He was a rising diplomat, and they came from completely different worlds. The day after their wedding, He Jingyao received an assignment overseas for a one-year posting. When he returned, Wen Qianyue wasn’t there to meet him at the airport. His younger brother stammered, “Sister-in-law is at a bar.” It was He Jingyao’s first time setting foot in a bar. Wen Qianyue sat in the middle of a sofa, pointing in his direction. “Not him. He’s too old.” The man pinched the bridge of his nose and calmly said, “Wen Qianyue, come home.” Wen Qianyue squinted at him for a long moment. “Who are you? What right do you have to boss me around? Even my ‘dead’ husband doesn’t care what I do.” His younger brother: Sister-in-law, good luck. After a wild night, Wen Qianyue woke up with a hangover and aches all over. The refined, elegant man stood beside her. “Do you know who I am now?” 2- After getting married, the two of them had little in common beyond their physical chemistry. He Jingyao often worked late into the night, and their only conversations were before bed. A marriage with no foundation of love could fall apart at any time. Even their friends thought so. He Jingyao only cared about affairs of state. Why would he care about romance? Later, at a friend’s birthday party, He Jingyao stayed by Wen Qianyue’s side all evening. When the first snow fell over Beicheng, he thoughtfully draped his coat around her. “Careful. Don’t catch a chill.” Her heels were rubbing her feet raw, so he swept her into his arms. “Be good.” Their friends were stunned. Was this really He Jingyao, the aloof man they knew, who could argue circles around everyone? And that wasn’t all. He Jingyao received another overseas assignment, this time for over a month. When he returned, the steady, composed man scanned the crowd waiting at the airport, but couldn’t find Wen Qianyue. That night, in a haze of passion, He Jingyao held Wen Qianyue captive in his arms. A light sheen of sweat beaded at the hollow of her throat. His voice was hoarse. “Wife, you didn’t come to meet me again.” A Little Extra After He Jingyao became the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ new spokesperson, he wore a moon-shaped tie clip and cufflinks to every press conference. People speculated about why. At last, he revealed the truth: “I’ve been in love with Wen Qianyue for ages.” He added a crescent moon. “On a flower-bright evening beneath the moon, you’re by my side. This is just right.” Theme: Make the most of every day!
