[Older Brother Steals Younger Brother's Wife + Deliberate Provocation + Ruthless Female Lead + Scheming, Sickly Man]
After transmigrating as the daughter of her father's sworn enemy, the first thing Jiang Jinyue did was wipe out the whole family in one fell swoop.
In her previous life, her half-sister stole her husband, seized her dowry, and took her identity. Jiang Jinyue retaliated by producing proof of her half-sister's affair, ruining her reputation!
Her father favored her spoiled half-brother? Jiang Jinyue presented a petition and sent the pampered boy straight to prison, where he died far from home.
All Jiang Jinyue wanted was revenge. She had no interest in love. But one admirer after another kept throwing themselves at her.
A dark, possessive heir imprisoned her, chaining her ankle. The heir leaned close to her ear like a venomous snake beneath the water, his gaze sinister. "Elder Sister, we're the closest people in the world. You can only be mine."
At long last, she escaped, only for the gentle and refined Grand Academician to humble himself for her. His eyes reddened. "You were supposed to be my wife. Could you... please not leave me?"
Everything had gone off the rails, and now that sickly, powerful minister was joining in!
Wasn't he supposed to be cold, restrained, and on the verge of death? Why was he competing for her, fighting over her, and getting jealous?
She could put up with a sweet-faced schemer, but what was with all the deliberate provocation?
One day, Jiang Jinyue tried to use a bowl of chicken soup to make him cough up some manpower...
"You ate it and drank it," Jiang Jinyue said, eyes wide as she challenged him. "Don't tell me you're planning to skip out on the bill?"
"You held me and kissed me, too." Xie Qinghe suddenly leaned closer, speaking with utmost intimacy. "Does Miss Jiang really not intend to give me a title?"
"Are you trying to go back on your word?"
