In her previous life, Xie Jinyao wanted nothing more than to earn her family's love. But her father only had eyes for her half-sister, and her mother treated her merely as a tool for winning favor. Even her fiance broke off their engagement for the sake of her half-sister.
Just as Xie Jinyao was feeling lost and helpless, someone drugged and kidnapped her. When she woke up, she had returned to the age of fifteen.
Reborn, she no longer wanted to please a father who never saw her or a mother who only used her. She only wanted to save the elder brother who had died unjustly in her previous life, and to break off the engagement she had been bound to then.
But after she ended the engagement, she began to see her friend Lin Xun's elder brother, the young marquis of the Pingnan Marquis household, showing up before her all the time, taking her horseback riding, hunting, and fishing.
The young marquis had always been an elegant and upright man, but he seemed strict in everything he did and often wore a cold expression. Xie Jinyao had been afraid of him since childhood. Until one day, the young marquis asked her, "How about marrying me?"
Xie Jinyao was about to refuse, but when she saw his icy gaze, she stammered, "All right."
Later, while discussing the marriage, her friend told her, "Did you know? My elder brother has painted so many portraits of you in his study. He's liked you for a long time."
After they married, Xie Jinyao went to the study. Her heart skipped a beat. It was true.
Generally speaking, this is not a sadistic story. The heroine is more mature, so it is not a cool novel. The focus is on the heroine's self-growth and healing. 😳😳😳😳😳If you like it, add it to a bookshelf.
Some things can only be understood by reliving your life. I once wanted to get my father's love and tried hard to express myself, but in the end I was always ignored and used. It is better to be free and be yourself.
