(Reborn + secret identities + childhood sweethearts + wuxia + xuanhuan)
In her previous life, Gu Lewei, the beloved legitimate daughter of the General’s Residence, had no interest in romance and only wanted to roam the martial world. So she believed other people’s slander and cut ties with Qi Jin, the young master of the Qi family, to whom she had been betrothed since childhood. Little did she know that the legendary Seventh Young Master of the martial world was none other than Qi Jin, the very man whose engagement she had broken off.
After Gu Lewei finished her apprenticeship and returned home, she learned that the entire General’s Residence had been executed. The mastermind turned out to be that Seventh Young Master of the martial world... In a fit of rage, Gu Lewei went and seized two of Qi Jin’s businesses, hoping to demand an explanation, but failed to find him.
Instead, an informant working for Qi Jin told her that the order to execute the General’s entire household had most likely come from the ruler of the imperial court...
In the end, Gu Lewei could not win justice for her family. She died in bitter resentment beneath the iron sword of one of the imperial ruler’s expert guards.
Reborn, with the General’s Residence still safe, Gu Lewei decides to prepare for the worst and train hard in martial arts to protect everyone in her family.
But why does this Seventh Young Master, Qi Jin, keep hovering around her?
(PS: This is a wuxia novel disguised as historical romance.)
