I Followed Orders and Refused His Gratitude for Saving My Life, and Now He Regrets It

The old Imperial Preceptor declared that the heir of the Marquis of Yongan was fated to suffer a calamity and would not live past twenty.

The heir, struck by seven arrows and barely clinging to life, was saved.

The old Imperial Preceptor added that if he managed to escape death, he would have to repay his savior by marrying them, thus settling the karmic debt and securing his continued survival.

The heir's family entered the humble residence of a sixth-rank official in the capital, carrying a jade pendant and lavish betrothal gifts.

My elder half-sister appeared before the heir ahead of me, took the jade pendant, and claimed to be the one who had saved his life.

My parents were overjoyed. They showered praise on my sister and the heir, completely forgetting that my sister had no medical skills.

I stood behind the screen, touching the scar on my face, and didn't step forward to reveal the truth.

In my previous life, I got my wish and married Cui Bin. My sister was scorned in the capital for falsely claiming my identity and was driven out of the city that very day.

Then, in the second month of my marriage, Cui Bin set fire to our home and burned me alive in my room.

He brutally killed me, the woman who had saved his life, solely to avenge the sister he loved.

Now that I've lived again, I'll bring these two lovers together and let them "share a bed in life and a grave in death."
