Jiang Chenyu was a beautiful young girl who had long been the target of her lecherous stepfather’s obsession. Desperate and with nowhere to run, she one day seized the chance while her stepfather was away from home. She tossed out an embroidered ball to choose a husband.
Who would’ve thought that the handsome man who caught it turned out to be penniless and homeless, only able to marry into her family as a live-in son-in-law? With her stepfather about to return, Jiang Chenyu decides there’s no better time than now, and promptly drags the man straight into the bridal chamber.

Shen Hetang, on the other hand, had transmigrated into this world, without the original owner’s memories, homeless, and nearly starving to death. She suddenly caught an embroidered ball that fell from above. Her eyes sparkled as she held it. This wasn’t just a marriage token, it was a golden meal ticket!
Married life begins:
Jiang Chenyu teased coquettishly: “Husband, why don’t you take off your clothes?”
Shen Hetang replied seriously: “I’m not hot.”
Jiang Chenyu glanced outside. The sun was blazing so fiercely even sparrows were diving headfirst into the pond to cool off then looked back at her husband, wrapped up tightly in three thick layers.
Her heart, itching to make a monk break his vows, grew all the more restless. Later, when the truth finally came out, she was a little stunned. But Shen Hetang, long since teased into falling for her, had no plans of letting her go and simply turning the mistake into reality.
“A tale of a woman disguised as a man, marriage before love, and love growing through playful deception.”
