Description
Song Liang Zhuo is a young and poor county magistrate. Qian Xiao Qi’s father is a rich man. Qian Xiao Qi falls in love with Song Liang Zhuo the moment she sees him. Each day she waits outside the court’s gates to see him, hoping he will glance her way once. She patiently waits for him to notice her for two years, but he ignores her. She realizes it is futile to wait for someone who does not know she exists and she gives up pursuing Song Liang Zhuo.

Song Liang Zhuo despises the shallow young girls who pursue him, but his heart softens seeing Qian Xiao Qi waiting for him to look at her for two years. He relents and he asks for her father’s permission to marry her.

Qian Xiao Qi marries Song Liang Zhuo, but she loses her memory. Qian Xiao Qi’s maid tells her how much Qian Xiao Qi loves Song Liang Zhuo. Qian Xiao Qi does not remember why her old self loves someone who despises her. She asks Song Liang Zhuo to divorce her. But he tells her that her father will not give her wedding dowry to him to help poor villagers living in provinces which are affected by floods… until her father is holding a grandchild so he refuses to divorce her. She promises him she will find a way to get her father to give him the wedding dowry without her being pregnant, and she will find him a new wife if he promises to divorce her.

Song Liang Zhuo slowly falls in love with his wife. But he is too slow, because his wife secretly regains her memories… she remembers her pathetic old self for loving the heartless Song Liang Zhuo and she makes secret plans to run away.

  3. Fellow Sect5 Daoist says:

    how many chapters does this web novel have?

  4. Meowchie says:

    The heroine is so cute. :3

    Thank You For Translating This Novel💞

  6. soysuva says:

    Hello! Just curious, is the novel still being translated or is it dropped? I hope it hasn’t been dropped as I find the story and plot directions pretty interesting. I’m thankful for both translators and editors of this novel for sharing this wonderful story with us! /😘/~💛

    • Chiyomira says:

      Still translating. Sorry, been busy w/ life lately. You can check where I’m stuck at by looking at the procrastination progress widget on my site.

      • soysuva says:

        Yep, checked it out. Thanks! I really like XQ, but I’m still holding a grudge on the male lead. Until he shows improvements and accepts that he did cause her to lose her memories from hitting her and not try to put the blame on her like it was her fault, I’ll then forgive him. Sorry for my rant on the male lead and I hope this doesn’t discourage you from translating as I do find the story pretty interesting so far. Thanks for translating again by the way! 😘

      • Eunie says:

        Err hi!!! Chiyomira-sama trungy’s site is no longer available so some of my friends were quite reluctant to read Xiao Qi even though it’s such an amazing read and Xiao Qi is very funny (and Mother Song is just awesome) but they can’t read chapters 1-8😭

        • Chiyomira says:

          Ooh, I’m happy and kinda feel bad to hear that. Right now Xiao Qi Wait is at a pretty tense part so I wanted to show the end of what happens with Zixiao before going back and retranslating the first couple chapters… but after seeing your comment and checking, it looks like the conflict won’t be resolved until a couple weeks’ worth of chapters. Hahaha, this is so evil, but I’ll probably translate this week’s chapters, then go back and fill in the first chapters. XD

    Hi Chiyomira,
    First, thank you for translating this.
    Second, any tips for learning Chinese to read web novels?
    Thank you. 🙂

    • Chiyomira says:

      You’re welcome. 🙂
      Well, first it’d be helpful to have some basic foundation for Chinese vocabulary. I can’t really recommend any site because I’m fluent in conversational Chinese and just skipped straight to reading. But I recommend you pick a site that looks like it has a lot of lessons in grammar as well as in words, then stick with it until you go through all it has to offer.

      Once you have that, it helps to start off with watching some Chinese dramas with Chinese subs. Then you can start reading web novels online with a dictionary. There’s really helpful google chrome chinese dictionaries now. This is the one I use: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/zhongwen-chinese-english/kkmlkkjojmombglmlpbpapmhcaljjkde
      Though it’s really good, there’s a lot of Chinese sayings and combinations it doesn’t include, so sometimes you might want to copy the text and paste it into google and click a link like ‘baidu’ or ‘baike’ that will explain the Chinese saying in Chinese. Otherwise phone apps are good, I haven’t really found one I’m satisfied with yet but the “Chinese English Dictionary” has a very clean layout and is pretty good.

      At the start you might have to go really slowly with a dictionary, but you’ll start recognizing the more common words and eventually will be able to get the gist of the story even if you don’t know all the words and you can do some reading even without searching every word up. Good luck and have fun~

  8. Reeg says:

    This is one of my favorite novels 💜💜
    Thank you so much~

  9. Jovi says:

    Loving this.

  10. Zyxaliath says:

    ….
    The poor guy…
    Hope Song Liang Zhuo will poison him…
    Since, if you cut his things off he would die, and no grandchildren, nor poison him so he would slowly die
    (>w< hehehe)

    Chiyomira-san, thank you for a the lesson in Chinese
    …I won't get in trouble for the top part right?
    It's very varies tho… so…

  11. Huepute says:

  12. Tia says:

  13. Cathy says:

    Thanks for the update.

  14. Maggie says:

    trungtnguyen123 webpage has been taken down. Is there anyway you would be able to translate those chapters again? I would really like to read this without skipping the intro.
    Thanks 😀

    • Chiyomira says:

      What really?? If I knew earlier I would have finished reading his(or her?) series rather than saving it for later… Thanks for letting me know though. I’ll see about translating those chapter in a week or so.

  15. Lareb says:

    Where can I read chapters 1-8? The domain for trungtnguyen123 is expired so there’s no content there.

  16. Khukaimonster says:

    I want to read this but the first few chapters are not available 🙁
