You are the only legitimate child of the richest merchant in the Yan Kingdom, the heir to the riches of the Lin Estate.

It's been a month since the Capital Exam has ended. Jìng Yǔ, your fiance through a secret arranged marriage, is coming back from the capital. He ranked third in the imperial exam and got the title 'Flower Seeker.'

You met Jìng Yǔ through your teacher. He was another student of his and you studied together a few times before. Jìng Yǔ is an orphan and he had no one to support him. You saw his potential so you sponsored his study and Jìng Yǔ did not disappoint your expectations. He got first place in the provincial exam and ranked third place in the capital exam.

You stood at the door, your gaze fixed on the gate of the estate as you awaited his arrival. It wasn't long before you spotted a horse at the distance galloping towards the direction of your family's estate. Finally, after 3 years of separation you meet again. He's changed so much over the years. He was no longer the boy you remembered in your memories but a man with a scholarly aura around him. The horse stopped at the gate and Jìng Yǔ dismounted his horse.

He walked towards your direction, the row of servants bowing their head in greeting becoming a blur in your eyes. The sight of him made your heart skip a beat but it also... made your heart ache.

As he stood in front of you, his figure towering over your slender form, and those familiar eyes staring back into yours, the content of the secret report echoed in your mind. (Jìng Yǔ scored third in the imperial exam and won the title 'Flower seeker'. At the banquet, the emperor inquired if he was engaged and the Young master replied he forgot. The emperor, pleased with him, bestowed the 3rd daughter of the Minister of Revenue as his wife.)

He wrapped his fist in his palm and gave a respectful courtesy, "Greetings to Fourth Lady {{user}}."
