I read the first 4 chapters in translation and finished it in MTL. Cute and Heartwarming story.

It's short and sweet and you can't help but say this is it? WHYyyYyyY???!! (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`) The MC is likable the ML is doting and misunderstandings are gone so quick you father couldn't even say he's going out to buy milk.

10/10 for a quick read, a toothache inducing sweetness and a trouble free read, my mind can rest at ease.

An undervalued younger son of a merchant's concubine loves from a distance the scholarly upright betrothed of his brother. His position in his family is meager with only his mother's love to support him. He spends his days avoiding ab*se at home by working in the single tiny embroidery shop he was given by his father. His brother was given sixteen.

Spoiler

This story has a cinderella like vibe in that our MC is worthy but his future happiness depends on the misfortune of his love and his own willingness to commit fraud.

[collapse]

All of this leads to a sugary sweet and kind romance between two decent people. The world and secondary characters are thin but support the story. Our two leads have interesting backstories and personalities.

Spoiler

The inherent trust and respect they display towards one another AND others is refreshing.

If you are in the mood for a short sweet story of love I recommend this story. <<less

This is such a sweet story, but it's not just fluff. It's about learning to value yourself, the value of kindness over wealth, and how to not get complacent or only judge based on the status quo (since nothing is guaranteed in the future).

I love the trust in the main relationship, and how they help make each of other better. It's such an ideal of what to aspire to in a romantic relationship.

This is a wonderful read. The way it was written made the pacing of the story seems slow, but it's actually not slow at all. It's because the atmosphere is so mellow and full of warmth that it seem so slow and easy-going (if that even make sense) 🥺, idk it's just my personal feeling.

Their marriage is fateful.

Their interactions are always sweet, fluffy and mellow. I love it so much.... more>>

Spoiler

I can't imagine how it would be if the ML actually marry the older brother since their personalities are gravely conflicted.

Honestly, ML is such a wonderful person. He's warm, gentle and polite, not just to MC but towards other people as well. This is so great. It portrayed his identity as a scholar very well. To tell the truth, my heart melted into a puddle reading this. 😭❤️ The ML is too much to my taste! The MC is also very dedicated and loyal. Although he's timid, he can also become strong when it's time to protect those he loves, such as his mother and ML. The fact that he never keep any secret from ML is truly the best. It saves them from any unnecessary dramas and misunderstandings. They will definitely live well together. Thank you for the translation! <<less

Must read

Such a simple feel good novel.

Harmonious couple

No lack of communication; both talk to each other about everything

No misunderstandings (just a bit but was sorted out super fast)

You can feel the loving atmosphere between them.

Totally recommended

Short and Sweet story.. A perfect light read, with a couple that actually communicate with each other ❤️

Cute!! Just pure fluff, with a loving couple basically from the get go. It's a short story so not too much substance, but nice for a wholesome quick romance!

Very simple and predictable story but ultimately a pleasant read. MC and ML pursue a simple and affectionate love life without any unnecessary misunderstandings. Very good to read when you want to take a break from long, angsty novels

This was a great story about valuing ones own worth. I love the CP's progress, and how YXX encourages XL to recognise his worth.

Short and sweet

Ohhhhh!!! Short but sweet!!!

Probably the rating's much higher only if other reviewers did rate it with stars. Anyway, as long as they are happy with the story, then I'm good.

Thre's nothing complicated with the story, very simple and the flow is just right. It's a feel good novel, if you need a break from noir or tragic novel, then this one is highly recommended.

I like the relationship of our ML and MC, they trust and love each other unconditionally. The "accident" brought them together and there's just fluff after that.... more>> The MC's a sweetheart and the ML's a gentleman and a very doting partner.

Although, I want more chapter or extra chapters but thinking about it, I am still satisfied after reading the last part. Oh well, some good things come in small packages and this is one of them!

Enjoy!! <<less

A nice read. It's what a story could be without all the fuss and dogblood drama.

It's easy to read without any complication in the story.

In the end I liked it more than 'long' novels we alrady read on the site.

Fluffy and wonderful. The plot isn't heavy, but it's also not boring at all. The story is rather short at 15 chapters, but oh my god, there's more characterization to these characters than some novels that are 150+ chapters. Read this if you need to heal your heart.

Short and sweet. Despite the name that reminds me of a certain horror film LoL. Only 15 chapter, I wouldn't mind reading more of MC & ML story, but alas, there's no more, not even extra.. MC is a lovely, sweet concubine son, ML is a gallant, gentle scholar. I'm happy that MC's insufferable half brother is rarely mentioned in the story. No one needs to suffer his presence after all. A quick read that is so sweet it makes your teeth ache.

aww this was adorable! I loved it so much. The relationship between the MC and ML is so freaking healthy oh my god. They understand each other and trust each other. And above all,

They

Know

To

COMMUNICATE!

They don't jump into conclusions, its so great. Because I get so frustrated when the main couple don't communicate with each other and just make up their own answers instead of taking to their s/o.

But that wasn't a problem here.

Overall a great read to pass your time with and fill your heart with fluffy goodness of domestic married life.

P.S hope Xiao Xin and his parents burn in hell💜💜 <<less

A story with a plot that could’ve potentially been stretched out with dog-blood scenarios but chose the road less traveled & was instead wholesome & straightforward

Aww... this is a short sweet story. Not much happening but still a good read.

Somehow, I feel like that the MC and ML are fated? haha

This novel makes me feel that maybe unlucky event will brings us to great fortune in the future :)

... more>> Also, what I really like is that the MC/shou is the one who falls in love first and actually shows it!! >< this troupe is my weak point haha

Do I recommend this novel? Short read, sweet story, likeable protagonists, no heavy plot, yes I recommend it :) <<less

Definitely would read this again. Very cute and simple I want kiss them both 😭

If you’re still hesitating whether to read this or not, READ IT! This is your sign.

This story is so wholesome that my heart felt full, istg. I never felt this way for a long time lmao. It’s just so... heartwarming I feel like crying (which I did btw). This story is pure perfection aaahh! This is perfect for people who just finished a heavy drama. It will surely lift your spirits uwu. I hope you don’t miss this out~

Sooo good, definitely so good!

Everything fell into the right place, the romance was short but not forced, arghhh I hope I can fall in love like this someday!

The only con? It’s too short 😭😭
