In her previous life, Jiang Mengli went from being the beloved legitimate daughter of the Grand Preceptor to an ill-omened woman said to bring death to her husband and family. Guilt over her husband’s family made her endure every torment her mother-in-law put her through. In the end, though, it was that very mother-in-law, whom she had treated with the utmost respect, who brought people to cut the flesh from her body. Only then did Jiang Mengli learn the truth: her husband, who had died young, was now a high-ranking official with wealth and status, and had married another woman. It had all happened because she bore the bones of a phoenix. Her half-sister and her mother-in-law’s family had conspired against her, leaving her with a vile reputation and her family destroyed.
Reborn, she was still a wife of the Qin family. This time, she would turn everything upside down and make the scumbag who betrayed her pay! But on her wedding night, Xiao Chuyue took her innocence.
Xiao Chuyue held immense power, and beauties of every kind eagerly offered themselves to him. His ruthless ways made people tremble at the mere mention of his name.
Yet he never laid a finger on Jiang Mengli.
Later, when Qin Moyuan was arrested, everyone assumed she would be exiled thousands of miles away along with the Qin family. But to their surprise, Xiao Chuyue brought her back in the dead of night. The next day, dressed in finery and a magnificent headdress, she accompanied Xiao Chuyue to the execution ground to watch over the proceedings, meeting Qin Moyuan’s astonished gaze head-on.
Not bad
