The Legitimate Daughter Stirs the Spring: A Red Apricot Blossom Sets the Capital Abuzz

Word spread through the capital that the eldest daughter of the Minister of Rites had been seen cuddling with a man in a grove, cheating on her fiancé, only for her lover to abandon her afterward.

Fu Junyu was consequently jilted and became a laughingstock throughout the capital.

After it happened, Miss Fu was so ashamed and furious that she poisoned herself. Then, in the mourning hall, she came back to life after appearing to rise from the dead…

It was a bright May, yet heavy snow fell over the capital. Some said even Heaven was speaking up for Miss Fu, and that there must be more to the story.

Fu Junyu’s name rang throughout the capital.

Unable to withstand the pressure of public opinion, the Fu family sent their eldest daughter to Lan Yin Temple to practice Buddhism and repent before the Buddha.

After enduring a series of upheavals, Fu Junyu suddenly understood human nature. Her father’s heartlessness, her stepmother’s cruelty, and her mother’s murder had shown her the world’s fickleness and the warmth and coldness of human relationships.

Unwilling to accept her fate, she swore to find a chance to take revenge.

When Fu Junyu met Xiao Muyun again, she immediately started beating him. “You ruined my life. Today, I’m going to beat you to death.”

Xiao Muyun let her hit and scold him, merely saying, “What good will that do now? Why don’t I marry you instead?”

Fu Junyu said, “That’s exactly what I’ve been waiting to hear.”
