[Powerful Possession + The Long Road to Winning Her Back]
After Xie Chichuan, heir to the Marquis of Changping, died in battle, his wife, Chu Siheng, discovered she was pregnant.
The whole marquis's household turned from grief to joy. Only Chu Siheng felt ice run through her veins.
After Xie Chichuan left for war, on the night she prayed for his safety at a temple, a strange man pinned her beneath him, leaving her unable to move.
The two events happened one after the other. She had no idea who the child's father was.
-
The marquis's second branch exposed Chu Siheng's affair in public, hoping to seize the title.
As a white silk cord tightened around her neck, Regent Xiao Li severed it with a single stroke of his sword.
“The child in her womb is mine.”
Her lover was so powerful that no one could do anything about it.
The white silk was replaced with red wedding silk, and the heir's wife became the regent's favored concubine.
Chu Siheng couldn't understand why he was helping to cover up the truth.
Xiao Li put on a virtuous act and claimed he was only looking after his old friend's wife and child.
Chu Siheng believed him.
Until one night, when a drunken Xiao Li barged into her room and revealed the familiar scar on his back.
The fiend who had ravished her at the temple that night had been him all along.
What old friend?
They were sworn enemies!
He had taken her as his concubine to humiliate Xie Chichuan.
-
Chu Siheng hated him and went to great lengths to escape.
But Xiao Li appeared before her, having carved his way through a mountain of corpses.
He smiled with absolute confidence. “Xie Chichuan is dead and buried. You can only be mine.”
- A stubborn stone, set on conquering jade.
