Shen Dai is the illegitimate daughter of a prime minister, born to a dancing girl. At the prime minister’s residence, she is bullied by her legal wife and legitimate daughter. After she marries, her husband may be a son of a concubine, but he takes advice and works hard. With her support, he eventually becomes the heir to the Marquis of Jing’an’s title!
She thought she had finally come through hardship and would enjoy a life of honor from then on. Instead, she discovers that her husband has been hiding her legitimate sister in his study, where the two carry on an affair day after day.
He says, “Dear sister, you’re the one I’ve wanted to marry from the very beginning.”
“Only a legitimate daughter like you is fit to be my principal wife.”
When their affair is discovered, they cut out her tongue and cripple her legs to cover it up. They lock her in a cellar and torment her day after day. At last, her husband slashes her throat with his sword, and she dies consumed by hatred.
When she wakes again, she has returned to age sixteen!
Good people die young, while evil lives on. In this life, she swears she’ll never be good again!
Who says a daughter born to a concubine is lowly? She’ll prove everyone wrong. She’s determined to become the most noble woman in the world and crush everyone who once bullied and humiliated her beneath her feet, making them submit forever!
Didn’t her legitimate sister steal her husband in her previous life?
Then in this life, she won’t marry a son of a concubine or work herself to the bone to become a marquis’s wife. Even if she has to steal him, she’ll become the crown princess!
The crown prince mutters indignantly, “I wasn’t stolen. I willingly strayed from my marriage.”
After all, she was the one who gathered his remains in his previous life. He’s actually here to repay her kindness!
