[Reborn with a pregnancy + the aloof beauty brought down from her pedestal + the pursuit of a wife after losing her]
Su Qingdai spent her whole life chasing Xie Linyuan.
In the end, she became a hostage and died a terrible death.
Reborn, she finally understood that a lofty beauty was not meant to be plucked. She would thrive on her own.
So she fled Xie Linyuan’s bed and resolutely drank the pregnancy-prevention potion.
Then she struck back at the scoundrels, making everyone who had opposed her fall to their knees and beg for mercy.
And that wasn’t all. She found the confidence to make her own way.
She opened a shop and counted her silver.
Her spice shop became a sensation, spreading from the neighborhood all the way to the imperial palace.
The little princess adored it, and even the emperor’s favored concubine couldn’t put it down.
As for her admirers, they lined up from the prime minister’s residence all the way to the city moat.
Just as she was enjoying her comfortable life…
Xie Linyuan panicked.
He had no idea what had gone wrong.
All he knew was that Su Qingdai had changed.
The younger woman who always got jealous and wagged her tail to win his favor was gone.
The girl who used to follow him around, bringing him meals and pastries, had disappeared.
The person who used to smile only for him now acted as though she couldn’t see him…
Everything seemed to have slipped completely out of Xie Linyuan’s control, and he grew more and more irritable.
Whenever another man looked at Su Qingdai, he wanted to gouge out the man’s eyes.
He insisted that he didn’t like Su Qingdai; he just wasn’t used to her being gone.
That is, until news of Su Qingdai’s pregnancy reached him.
At last, he went mad and pinned Su Qingdai fiercely to the bed.
With bloodshot eyes, Xie Linyuan demanded, “Tell me, whose child are you carrying?”
Su Qingdai gritted her teeth and lied. “It’s definitely not yours.”
That night, the cold and ruthless young master of the prime minister’s household drank himself into a stupor and cried “aggrieved” tears all night long.
Fortunately, the second female lead has done so many bad things, but nothing happened [punch out][punch out][punch out]
It's good to watch, but not many people read it. I hope the author won't stop updating.
It would be better if there were more updates [please update]
I should write some extras if it's not enough.
Finally finished reading it on June 30, 2026 @ punch-in person.
