For the first fifteen years of her life, Mu Yueci, daughter of a military family, had everything go her way. It left her with a headstrong, innocent nature and a tendency to hold a grudge. But just as she came of age, disaster struck from every direction!
“Everyone says Lin Sheng is cruel and ruthless! And he’s an old man, too, well into his thirties and still unmarried. There must be something wrong with him!”
“Just marry him. Since ancient times, haven’t all young women followed their parents’ orders and their matchmakers’ arrangements?”
I understood, of course. None of the girls next door had done otherwise. I could only tell my eldest brother, “If I ever get divorced, you’ll have to support me for the rest of my life!”
It sounded like an offhand remark, but now it seems this tragic marriage was destined from the start.
“Did you just call me your husband? Then let your husband dote on you properly...” Lin Sheng narrowed his eyes, a hint of amusement on his stern face.
The two clashed on their wedding night. It was only a month later that Lin Sheng spoke to Mu Yueci like this.
He didn’t know that her heart belonged to that graceful young man in white.
The one who had reached out to her and promised to take her away. The young man willing to give up the throne and his revenge for her.
After her family fell into ruin and she was driven to the brink of death, she rose from the ashes, reborn!
With the military books she had studied since childhood, she would plan each move carefully.
Could she change her fate?
Could she uncover her mother’s secret...
A word from the author: She is a clever schemer who still has a kind heart. Even if the whole world betrays her, she will never betray the world!
Male lead: Cunning, aloof, and jealous, yet clueless about love.
Male supporting character: The perfect man!
