[Traditional Historical Romance + The Hero's Long Road to Win Her Back + Scheming Heroine + Hidden Identity]
Until the age of thirteen, Cui Yunyu was the Taishi's legitimate daughter and a celebrated young lady of Dengzhou.
After thirteen, she took on another name and became Shuangjiang, a scullery maid in the Xie household.
When her family fell into ruin, all she wanted was to save enough money on her own, take her younger sister to find their father in exile, and live a quiet life.
But by chance, she was taken by the Xie family's eldest son after he was drugged.
She never expected him to take responsibility for her.
She kept to her place every day, focused only on saving enough to leave the estate, unaware that she had already fallen into one carefully laid trap after another...
The Xie family's eldest son, Xie Lingzhou, is noble and aloof, cold and merciless, and never pulls his punches in word or deed.
Yet the net he wove with his own hands opened again and again for that little maid.
The first time, he asked his mother for a favor for the first time in his life, just to change the maid's duties.
The second time, he took a blade for her to save her life and nearly lost an arm.
The third time, to protect her virtue, he did something unheard of and arranged a concubine-taking ceremony himself.
His mind was made up.
Even if a thousand people condemned him, even if everyone despised him, he wanted only her.
But three days later, a great fire took a life and burned away every trace of affection the eldest son had left for the rest of his life.
From then on, Xie Lingzhou fell seriously ill.
It was three years later, after recovering, that he went to the capital to take up an appointment.
One day, at a colleague's residence, he saw a woman.
Her hair was arranged like clouds, her brows dark and delicate, her manner gentle and elegant. It was the very woman who had haunted his dreams.
But before he could speak, she sharply scolded him:
“Where did this shameless libertine come from? Get out, now!”
At her words, the Xie family's eldest son, newly recovered from a long illness, staggered two steps.
Then he actually coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The writing style is very good and the writing is smooth. It is a good book
It's so good. I stayed up all night to read it. I was looking for something similar. It's the best one I've seen on Tomato so far.
It's beautiful, and the characters are well drawn.
I really enjoyed reading it. I started reading the first chapter and finished it straight away. I didn't get enough 🤦
Nice and good-looking plot closely linked
The plot is delicate and I am still looking forward to the new plot so far. I hope the author will update it as soon as possible 👍
