Eastern Romances

A good brother was troubled by the need to break off a marriage engagement,
After drinking, the young Marquis of Marquis Duanjing Residence, Yan Qing, was willing to take a stab for his good brother, "It's just a woman, right? I'll marry her!"
When the alcohol wore off, he looked at Ling Hua who had come to find him—
He regretted it so much his guts turned green!
At the age of thirteen, Ling Hua struck the complaint drum to bring a lawsuit to the Emperor's attention, daring to risk her life by dragging down the Crown Prince's Grand Tutor's family from power, saving the entire Ling Family and thus making a name for herself in the Capital City. Three years later, she reorganized the Ling Family, firmly grasping it in her hands, leaving no one able to shake it.
Every time Yan Qing mentioned her, he sighed with emotion, thankful he didn't marry this woman.
—In the end, he married her!

Yan Qing: A young man holding a grasp of the crisp breeze, intoxicating the verdant courtyard with the fragrance of orchids for miles
Ling Hua: Stained by the color of Begonia from Qiyun Mountain, worthy of plucking a single bloom to hasten the adornment of makeup

Laying It On Thick

Ling Hua hadn't gone far before she arrived in front of Yan Qing. She didn't speak to him and just sat down beside him.


Yan Qing, his eyes drunk, turned his head and saw a slender figure sitting beside him, a woman. He was stunned for a moment, "Why... are you also sitting here?"


Ling Hua sat very straight, her head not turning, "Is this roadside owned by your family?"


"Then why do you care where I sit? I just like sitting here."


He was silent for a moment, then attempted to get up and move away, but his legs were weak and his body was swaying. After sitting back down, he seemed rooted to the ground, unable to stand. With slight helplessness, he addressed her, "Miss, could you please sit a little further away?"


Yan Qing took a deep breath, "Why not?"


"Because you said this roadside isn't your property, why should I sit far away?"
