    Summary

    When Hua Cheng loses all his memories of Xie Lian, afflicted by a tricky curse, there’s only one way to get them back: Xie Lian has to get Hua Cheng to kiss him.

    It shouldn’t be too difficult, right?

    Xie Lian has a plan.


    “Greetings, Chengzhu,” Xie Lian said. “Apologies for the intrusion. Actually, I’ve been gifted to you by the heavens as a…”
    His voice caught.
    “I mean, to—”
    Xie Lian’s cheeks suddenly felt hot, and his palms grew damp under the rope binding his arms together. Beneath Hua Cheng’s piercing stare from above, he lost his cool.
    “As your,” he stammered. “Um, as—well—if you want, I’ve been sent to you as—I’m here to be your—”

    Summary

    Since Jiang Fengmian's untimely death, the Jiang clan has become more and more isolated under the lightning whip and iron fist of Madam Yu. With the threat of the Wen clan rising, the Lan clan finds that they need an ally.

    Fortunately, the Jiangs have a son of marriageable age.

    More fortunately, Lan Xichen thinks Jiang Wanyin is just beautiful.

    Unfortunately, Madam Yu has a ward: the uncontrollable menace, Wei Wuxian. Under the terms of Jiang Fengmian's will, she cannot get rid of him until he, too, gets married. But who would want to marry a disastrous, untamed water shrew like Wei Wuxian?

    Based loosely on the plot of The Taming of the Shrew, by William Shakespeare.
