Toying with the Husbandly Prince, the Villainess Is Summoned and Cursed

[Fake gentle, truly cruel older woman x physically honest, scheming younger man]

Before Lin Jinjue went to the capital, she had done plenty of outrageous things.

The most outrageous was taking a lowborn servant as her male lover.

She'd seduced the boy, then kissed and humiliated him without restraint.

Lin Jinjue treated the story as an embarrassing remnant of her reckless youth and never mentioned it again.

After leaving Jiangdong, she turned over a new leaf and became a dignified woman, praised by everyone as steady and dependable.

The Matriarch Wen even paid a handsome sum to hire her as a tutor for her granddaughter.

Though physically frail and often ill, this noblewoman was quick-witted, and everyone in the household treated her with respect. It was truly an excellent position.

Gradually, Lin Jinjue began sharing meals with her by day and sleeping beside her by night.

Then, after a banquet one day, the other woman held her close, kissing and nuzzling her.

Lin Jinjue felt something that shouldn't have been there.

This was beyond outrageous.

She was so shocked she nearly turned and ran.

When Wei Lin was at the lowest point in his life, he met a noblewoman.

He did everything he could to win her over, willing to give up everything to stay by her side and face life and death alongside her.

But then his beloved vanished.

With his heart turned to ash, Wei Lin devoted himself to seeking immortality, summoning souls and consulting the gods.

Years later, he saw his long-lost beloved at his uncle's manor.

It turned out her name wasn't Yuan Qing. Her name was Lin Jinjue.

It turned out he was the real fool.

Hah.

Wei Lin fell silent for a long time.

From then on, a frail, beautiful “noblewoman” seeking to study took up residence at the Duke of Guo's manor.
