[No rebirth, no transmigration, no golden finger; native to the ancient setting; both leads are each other’s only partner; sweet romance; happy ending.]
Su Yuwan was an orphan who was tricked into marriage. Her chastity was taken, her parents were brutally killed, and even the last of her family’s property vanished without a trace.
The day after the man she loved locked her in a woodshed, she was to be sold off. But she was unexpectedly rescued.
From then on, she awakened to the truth and embarked on a path of revenge.

Ye Huaijin was a young man of mysterious family origins, with exceptional looks, martial arts skills, and intelligence, but absolutely no gift for conversation.
A hapless man who had been jilted again and again met a heavily pregnant woman hoping to enter a sham marriage.
They hit it off at once and married that very day.
After the wedding, Su Yuwan used ruthless methods to send everyone who had hurt her to prison. Then she turned around and found herself gathered into his arms.
“Why dirty your hands with those beasts?”
Su Yuwan raised an eyebrow. “Once I’m done dealing with them, it’ll be our turn to settle accounts.”
The night was sultry, and the red candles flickered.
Somehow, as they settled those accounts, she ended up getting counted in too.
A sweet and delicate beauty whose awakening came late × a loyal, ruthless minister who says little and gets things done
