Uncle Steals His Nephew's Wife: The Cold, Possessive Imperial Uncle Can't Get Enough

[Both Leads Are Each Other’s First + Household and Palace Intrigue + Stealing a Wife + Winning Her Back + Rivalry Among Men]

Song Yaozhi transmigrated into a background character in a palace-intrigue novel. The book was full of schemes and power struggles, and someone died in almost every chapter.

To make it to the ending alive, she arranged a marriage for herself and got her wish: she married her childhood friend, Heir Apparent Xie Yunzhao.

Xie Yunzhao was kind, handsome, and came from a good family. He doted on her and even promised they would be together for life, just the two of them.

Just as Song Yaozhi was starting to think she had it made, she woke up one day in bed beside her husband’s imperial uncle.

His handsome face was devoid of warmth, and his whole presence was so stern that she couldn’t help shivering.

Fortunately, she soon learned that it was now five years later. She was already divorced and had married again. Her current husband was the very man she’d almost mistaken for her “lover”!

How had her husband changed? Where was the childhood sweetheart she’d had all along? Her new husband was also the coldest man in the capital. He didn’t look like the doting type at all! Song Yaozhi’s heart sank!

After nine years of war, Xie Heng finally reclaimed the lost territories and returned to the capital. The emperor threw a grand victory banquet. Xie Heng drank, and when he woke up…

He learned that it was now five years later. Not only had he married his nephew’s ex-wife, he even had a three-and-a-half-year-old son!

Xie Heng had once seen the young couple being affectionate and thought to himself: Have I lost all my morals? Did I force her into this marriage?

He had no idea what had happened in those five years, but since they already had a child, it seemed he’d just have to make the best of it.

At first, Xie Heng said, “As long as a husband and wife treat each other with respect, that’s enough.”

Later, he was the one who kept his eyes fixed on Song Yaozhi, unable to bear being apart from her for even a day.

Just as their relationship began to warm, Song Yaozhi’s childhood-sweetheart ex-husband returned to the capital…
