Summary
Fan Changyu wants to have sex and her husband quite likes that idea.
-
“We could consummate our marriage.”
He jolted. A physical, full-body thing. The hand which had been resting on the table between them swung wide and knocked his cup, splashing tea; he scrambled to save it before it hit the floor and shattered, and there was about three seconds of mad grabbing and clanging before Yan Zheng finally stabilised himself, setting the cup down with a faintly trembling hand. When he looked up, his face was a rosy pink beneath the candlelight, and little wisps of hair had escaped his topknot, falling loose over his cheeks. “What?”

Summary
She thought so cheaply of his affection, of his desires? When he’d so foolishly allowed himself a glimmer of hope that for once, someone would choose him?
Fine.
If he couldn’t have her free choice, he would make her see him in every meal enjoyed, in every cup of tea savoured. She would think of him when she wrote, when she played the qin, when she bathed, when she opened her eyes in the morning.
He had not a moment of peace from her, and yet she saw so little of his worth, feared him like he was some sort of beast.
Fine. It was fine. He would show her what he was capable of.
He would make her crave him.

Summary
Jiang Xuening is a poor student and an unruly young woman. She offers nothing of value to Yan Lin, but dares to accept his regard anyway. Xie Wei is not pleased with their entanglement, and is pleased even less when she comes to him requesting special instruction with the offer of nebulous service in compensation.
She doesn't mean what he gleans from her offer, but his own interpretation is superior. The service he demands from her will force her to part from Yan Lin, sparing his cousin the headache of an unworthy woman and a lifetime of strife. There are other benefits, of course. Actions with only a single benefit aren't worthwhile.
