[Rebirth, revenge on scumbags, sweet romance, devoted to one another]
The eldest daughter of the Ruan family was cherished and indulged, a peerless beauty in the capital. Yet her once-sincere heart was ground into the dirt by the sisters she had trusted.
Reborn, she escaped that confining world and began to plan her every move. This time, she would hold her life and death in her own hands.
The young man was handsome, dashing, and dazzlingly confident. Ruan Qing had kept him in her heart for ten years without ever glimpsing his feelings. So that night, all she could do was vaguely feel her ears growing warm.
She cried for the young girl’s secret longings over those ten years, and for the betrothal between her and Gu Heng that had gone unfulfilled in her previous life. But Gu Heng was always like this: even when he wasn’t at fault, he was willing to bow his head to her.
How could she not cry?
Beneath the bright moonlight, the young woman was soft and alluring. The young general who had fought on the battlefield buried his face in the crook of her neck and murmured in a muffled, tender voice, “Ruan Zhizhi, I thought you didn’t want me anymore.”
Gu Heng’s arms were warm. Ruan Qing only heard the wind and a whisper in her ear. By the time she came to her senses, her thoughts were already in disarray. All she could manage was a tearful reply: “Hm? What?”
Gu Heng said nothing. Instead, he guided one of Ruan Qing’s small hands to his heart and said in a rather suggestive tone, “Ruan Zhizhi, I actually heard your heartbeat that night!”
At last, a secret love stepped into the light. Love was a feast for two.
