(Also known as Reborn to Marry Chen Xuanqing)
[A Fine Marriage Fanfic | Fans of the drama and the original novel are welcome]
In her previous life, Gu Jinchao gave her heart to Third Master Chen by mistake, only to lose her family and die alone in a secluded courtyard.
Only on the verge of death did she understand: Chen Xuanqing, the man she had longed for but kept at arm’s length, was the only one who had ever shed tears for her.
Reborn at fifteen, she would no longer be the capital’s foremost talented beauty, nor would she marry Third Master Chen, whose power shook the court.
In this life, she had just one goal:
To free Chen Xuanqing, a gentle, jade-like heir wrapped in a hard shell, from the shackles of the Chen family.
Chen Xuanqing thought she had come to ingratiate herself with the Chen family.
Until she took his hand in front of everyone and whispered:
“I didn’t come to be your third aunt. I came to marry you.”
Later, everyone in the capital knew that Third Master Chen’s nephew’s wife was the real power behind the scenes.
She outmaneuvered everyone in court politics and advanced step by step through the battles of the inner household.
And Chen Xuanqing, the aloof flower atop the high peak, willingly bowed to her, letting his proud and unyielding nature soften into tenderness.
