Mad Minister, You’re Destined to Be Mine!

[Taking her by force + groveling to win her back + both leads are sexually inexperienced]

The eldest son of the Yun family could easily have inherited his father's position, but he made his way through sheer ability. He passed the county-level exam at twelve, the provincial exam at fourteen, and the palace exam at sixteen. By twenty-two, he had become the Grand Secretary, wielding immense power at court.

People said he was a ruthless killer who showed no mercy.

Three years ago, the Du family was slaughtered. Du Wanyue refused to believe it was an accident and insisted on going to the capital to clear her father's name.

The Yun and Du families had been friends since their grandfathers' generation. Now that the Du family had fallen on hard times, Old Madam Yun took Du Wanyue into her home.

Desperate, Du Wanyue begged Yun Mutian to clear the Du family's name. He readily agreed, and the Du family's injustice was finally righted.

The old madam had hoped to bring the two together, but Du Wanyue politely declined the match.

At last, she had found a man who seemed right for her,

but love was never going to be easy.

“Why not marry me? That would spare us both a lot of trouble. And you could still wait for him.”

Du Wanyue agreed through her tears. But after they married, he was no longer content to treat her with nothing but respect.

Just when Du Wanyue thought he was sincerely trying to build a life with her, she discovered that he was the one responsible for sending the man she loved into exile.

It had all been part of a scheme he had planned from the start.

Completely broken, Du Wanyue demanded through her tears:

“Was it you? Were you the one who got him exiled to Ningguta...?”

“Why did you have to take away the only thing I had?”

Yun Mutian was wreathed in fury, his eyes hard and ruthless.

“You said you'd repay me for the rest of your life.”

“You were always destined to be mine.”
