Reborn, I Married the Heir Instead, and the General Regretted It

【Reborn + He tries to win her back but fails + The second male lead rises to the top + Unrequited love becomes mutual + One-on-one, both pure】 In her previous life, Jiang Zhixu and the young general Xie Yuxiu grew up together and fell in love. But when he returned victorious from battle, he claimed a dancing girl had saved his life and insisted on bringing her into the household as his concubine. The dancing girl later died saving him. Though Jiang Zhixu and Xie Yuxiu still went through with their betrothal for various reasons, they spent half their lives making each other miserable. Only after faking her death and escaping did she meet the person truly worthy of her heart. She was reborn on the day Xie Yuxiu asked whether she wanted to break off their engagement. This time, she said, “Let’s end it.” He offered to make it up to her. She said, “I’ve always heard that the heir to the Prince of Chu is a fine-looking gentleman. General, how about you repay me with a marriage to him?” The heir to the Prince of Chu, Chu Mingyuan, was his cousin… He agreed. Later, he came to find her on a rainy night, drenched to the bone. “Zhixu, I regret it.” But Chu Mingyuan caught him by the wrist. “Yuxiu, she’s your cousin-in-law. Please behave yourself.” One wrong move, and the whole game is lost. From then on, all he could do was watch them from afar, harmonious as a pair of zithers, never daring to overstep.
