Synopsis

Flirting and pampering + reborn + both leads are each other’s only love + sweet romance + household power struggles + later, she runs away while pregnant

The unruly, rebellious heir to the marquis’s title x the silly beauty

In her previous life, Wen Jinli lived under someone else’s roof, constantly on edge as she made her way through the Marquis’s household. She had heard all kinds of stories about Shen Jingchu, the heir to the marquis’s title, and what a bully he was. Terrified of him, she had carefully kept her distance.

She never imagined she would be forced into a political marriage, and that the passionate young man would die for her on the battlefield.

“Wen Jiaojiao, are you going to keep hiding from me next time?” he asked, holding her carefully in his arms, his eyes red.

“Don’t hide from me in your next life, all right?”

…

In her new life, Wen Jinli once again stayed at the marquis’s residence. On her very first day, she took a whip for Shen Jingchu and gazed at him tenderly.

She was thrilled at the thought of getting close to him, not wanting him to cry so bitterly as he had in her past life. But instead, she made him suspicious. Convinced she was a spy, he treated her coldly.

“I don’t have a cousin,” he said, shutting her out completely. After that, she only called him “Heir.”

Wen Jinli’s eyes reddened with sorrow. When the Marquis’s household later brought up marriage, she turned it down.

Later, Shen Jingchu cornered her in the courtyard. Wen Jinli’s expression was cool. “Does the heir need something? Big Cousin is waiting for me.”

“What did you just call me?”

“...Heir.”

“You got it wrong. I’ll have Banlan eat you.” Banlan was the spiritual snake he kept.

The girl went pale with fright. “Brother Heir… mm…”

He pressed her down in the courtyard and kissed her. “Wen Jiaojiao, marry me?”

“I won’t be a rascal anymore. I’ll behave.”

No, I was just asking a simple question, absolutely no offense intended. Perhaps I'm mistaken, or maybe I'm hallucinating. Whatever the reason, I hope we can maintain a friendly and rational relationship and not let any misunderstandings damage our friendship. Finally, I want to reiterate that I absolutely meant no offense; I'm simply asking out of a spirit of profound inquiry into the nature of the universe and a pragmatic approach to seeking truth: "Your writing is so beautiful!"

I enjoy the back-and-forth between the male and female leads. The male lead is a bit arrogant and fierce towards the female lead, but he actually cares about her. The female lead was foolish in her past life and was manipulated by bad people. She's not very smart in this life either, but she still protects the male lead a lot. There's a misunderstanding between them, and I hope it will be resolved soon. I want to see a sweet romance.

How can it only have a 7.4 Rating? I can't accept this!!! Of the more than 400 novels I've read, this one is my favorite. I love it so much, I love it so much I'm retracting this; how can there be such an outrageous novel?

The plot is good, I've already read it, but I feel there are a lot of misunderstandings sometimes, and the plot drags a bit, so it's a bit tiring to read. I'm currently on chapter 80-something, and I hope I finish it soon!

It's very well-written; it really draws you in. But after reading dozens of chapters, it's gotten a little sad. Xiao Guai keeps getting closer to him, and he keeps avoiding her. It's really heartbreaking to read.

It's a great read, but the updates are slow. The author is probably just writing it for fun.
