The Wicked Lady Seeks a Husband, and the Cold Young Lord Sends Betrothal Gifts Overnight

When Ming Tang chooses a husband, she looks at his face first, then his courage. Xie Zhibai passed both tests. She announced at a spring banquet that she was seeking a husband, and that very night he showed up at her door with betrothal gifts, leaving no time for anyone to gossip until dawn. Ming Tang was pleased, and decided to lay out the rules of married life as well. He could live in her residence. He could attend banquets with friends. And he wasn’t allowed to get jealous if she occasionally took a few extra glances at handsome men. Xie Zhibai didn’t nod again. With a smile, Ming Tang passed her round fan to someone nearby, deliberately testing his reaction. The next moment, the fan landed in the hands of the heir, Lord Xie. “Your Highness, we haven’t settled the jealousy rule yet.” Ming Tang had meant to tease this proper gentleman, but later discovered that even when he wanted to get close to her, he could always find a perfectly respectable reason. She couldn’t help feeling a little indignant. She was the one who’d asked for a husband, so why was she the first one whose heart started racing?
