General, I'm the One Who Saved You

[Mistaken Identity of Benefactor | Regretful Pursuit | The Crown Prince's Love Rivalry | Palace Intrigue and Political Scheming]

Lu Shiyuan has guarded the general's residence for three years, but it is nothing more than a cold cage.

A princess with no status or influence, she saved Huo Ting when he was gravely wounded five years ago. She gave him her whole heart and happily obeyed the imperial decree to marry him.

But on their wedding night, he coldly declared, "Don't think I'll ever touch you," then turned around and married Liu Ruyan, who had falsely claimed the credit for saving his life.

Liu Ruyan tormented her at every turn and plotted against her in secret. To take Huo Ting for herself once and for all, she even arranged for thugs to ruin Lu Shiyuan's reputation.

Just as Lu Shiyuan was on the verge of despair, Crown Prince Xiao Che burst in, drenched the attackers in blood, and rescued her from hell.

With a divorce decree in hand, she resolved to sever their ties.

But Huo Ting, once so cold and heartless, finally began uncovering the truth about what had happened at the temple all those years ago.

He came to his senses and desperately tried to win back the woman he had wronged for three years.

"Shiyuan, I know I was wrong. Stay by my side."

She raised her eyes calmly, her heart now a wasteland.

The crown prince, who had silently watched over her for years, was reaching out to her now.

One was the crown prince who had been by her side since childhood; the other, the general bowing his head to admit his mistake. Where should her heart turn?

⚠️ Content warning: The early chapters lean angsty, with the heroine enduring hardship and being wronged. She remains in a passive, suffering position for quite a while. This isn't a mindless wish-fulfillment story, and the pacing focuses on emotional tension. If you want the heroine to breeze through everything and win from the start, this may not be for you!

A good fit for readers who enjoy slow-burn angst, character tension, and can tolerate a frustrating start.

This is a newer author's work, with smooth prose and no major issues. It has a regular readership, so please think carefully before starting. If it's not for you, please don't be rude~
