[Stand-in for his one true love + rivals vying for her + ex-husband’s long road to win her back + amnesia + strong heroine’s comeback]
He once loved her with all his heart, but lost every memory of her after a near-drowning.
When Su Yunyi knelt in the snow to plead with him, Xiao Jinchen gave the Rejuvenation Pill to Qin Xuru instead,
crushing her sincere love with his own hands. “A mere merchant’s daughter thinks she can compete with Xuru?”
He personally raised the woman who replaced her to the position of Princess Consort, while humiliating his true love, Su Yunyi, at every turn:
“Only Xuru can be my principal consort. You’ll be demoted to secondary consort.”
“Secondary consort? I don’t even want to be your principal consort!” Su Yunyi tore up the marriage contract in front of Xiao Jinchen. She exchanged her entire fortune for a divorce and left without looking back.
She headed south to Jiangnan, where her grandmother, heartbroken over what she had suffered, sent out invitations far and wide to find her a match. Before long, heroes from across the land were vying for her: the heir of the Southern Frontier, the God of War of the Northern Border, a tycoon from the Eastern Sea… Even the crown prince was eager to win her favor. But after her heartbreak, she had already shut her heart to love. What could a man offer that a career couldn’t?
She opened an embroidery shop and founded schools for girls, building a commercial network that spanned the entire dynasty. She wanted every woman in the land to be able to support herself with her own hands and live with dignity!
When the amnesiac prince regained his memories, he came after her with red-rimmed eyes, begging her to take him back.
Su Yunyi merely gave her round fan a light wave and smiled sweetly.
“Your Highness, want to get back together? Take a number and get in line first.”
