Yandere Top Scholar's Clingy Love
Jiang Qingyao wakes up one day to find herself transmigrated as the legitimate daughter of the magistrate of Fuyang County.
As his daughter grows more and more beautiful with each passing day, suitors come knocking nonstop, leaving the county magistrate troubled.
It turns out that his superior has hinted that the girl should be sent into the palace.
Unwilling to let her waste her youth in palace intrigues, the magistrate thinks hard and hastily settles her engagement with the scholarly boy next door. After all, he watched the child grow up. His character is decent, and it is far better than being locked away in the palace.
After marriage, Shen Guan is attentive in every way.
Except for one strange obsession: everything must come in pairs.
Not only that, he insists on constantly clinging to and holding her close.
Fortunately, Shen Guan still has to study for the imperial exams. Qingyao often uses this as an excuse to make him spend more time in the study and less time in the bedroom, leaving her free to lounge around and sleep in until late morning.
But sometimes, before he goes off to the academy:
"I want the osmanthus cake from the end of East Street," she says.
The young man lowers his eyes, answering softly, "Alright."
Her eyes gleam with mischief.
"And also the crispy roast duck from West Street, the wontons from South Street, and the-"
Shen Guan frowns. "Jiang. Qing. Yao."
His handsome brows clearly disapprove.
She protests pitifully, "But you promised me last night."
Last night...
Indeed, he had been rather rough with her.
A flush creeps up the back of his ears. At last, he relents. "Fine. I'll bring them back for you tonight."

Until one day, Jiang Qingyao stumbles upon a thick stack of letters she once wrote to her cousin, a broken kite from when she was ten, even a small piece of clothing she had lost long ago-hidden away in Shen Guan's study.
Qingyao falls silent.
Uh... is my husband a yandere?
