In his previous life, Shen Guiyun lived for twenty-three years and was a "remaining" daughter for sixteen years and a "make do" wife for a few years.
There are daughters in the Shen family. The eldest sister is as bright as a spring flower, and the younger brother is as precious as a jade. Only she is the dust caught in the middle, the addition in the marriage, and another shadow that the husband looks at through his eyebrows.
He mistakenly recognized her as his sweetheart because of his eye disease, and she made a mistake in her life because of her cowardice. She made medicine for him, sewed clothes for him, and spent countless cold nights waiting for a door that would not open for her. It wasn't until she became depressed and became ill, that she finally saw clearly that the bronze mirror wouldn't answer her because she had never asked herself.
Looking back again, the day the marriage was granted by the imperial decree.
My sister is still arrogant, her parents are still partial, and the marriage that requires her to be a "dowry" is still in front of her.
Only this time, Shen Guiyun knelt down upright, his voice was as light as a fallen leaf, but it silenced the whole hall:
"My daughter doesn't want to marry."
She wants to be her own pearl, not anyone's dust. She studies, does business, earns a future, and spits out the complaints she swallowed in her previous life word by word into her own world.
But the man who treated her coldly in the previous life actually cured his eye disease in advance in this life, and blocked her way in front of everyone's astonished eyes.
His eyes were clear and he spoke word by word:
"Miss Shen Er doesn't want to marry because I haven't done a good enough job."
"In this life, I will chase you again."
——
She thought rebirth was escape, and he thought rebirth was atonement.
Little did he know that in the entanglement between the two lives, she was never the first to be tempted.
