After the Marquis's Heir's Mother Remarries, He Is Consumed by Regret

Su Wan and Shen Huaixu were promised to each other when they were young. They grew up together, but just as they were preparing to marry, Shen Huaixu led troops into battle. Before leaving, he promised that he would honor their engagement when he returned and never let her down.

For the next three years, she cared for everyone in the marquis’s household as his fiancée, thinking of him constantly and waiting for his return.

Three years later, Shen Huaixu came back with another woman, who was pregnant, breaking the promise he had made.

“Su Wan, Wan’er saved me at the border. We love each other. I want to make her my secondary wife and bring her into the household alongside you. If you agree, I’ll treat you with respect.”

Su Wan looked at the man who had betrayed his word and sneered. “Ha! Do I look that desperate? Why would I keep a piece of secondhand trash like you?”

She turned away and ended their engagement. Using the reward she had earned, she secured an imperial marriage decree and married upward to Gu Jinyuan, the emperor’s most beloved prince.

After their wedding, Gu Jinyuan could not keep his hands off her night after night. Watching her sleep beside him, his heart brimmed with joy and contentment. The woman he had secretly loved for years was finally his wife.
