At the hairpin banquet, the Xie family broke off the engagement in public.
In full view of everyone, Pei Lingyi did not cry or make a fuss. Instead, he turned around and proposed to marry the Xie family's mortal enemy - Gu Yanci.
In her previous life, she trusted her relatives, respected her marriage contract, and abided by the rules. However, in the end, her stepmother misappropriated her dowry, her concubine stepped on her to get the upper hand, and she was abandoned by a scumbag, and she died quietly.
In this life, she no longer talks about feelings, only about settlement.
She would take back whatever was taken from her.
Anyone who ruined her reputation would be ruined even more thoroughly.
She will not let go of anyone who owes her life.
Everyone said that Gu Yanci was cold-hearted and ruthless, and was not a good match.
But only Pei Lingyi knew that the sharpest knife in the world was sometimes best suited to be held in his own hands.
She borrowed a marriage to get into the game, and he used her to break it.
At first, everyone got what they needed, but later they fell step by step.
