The general guarding the border, Xiao Heng, was her deceased husband's sworn brother, harboring a secret love for her for five years. Propriety and social conventions stood between them. In the desolate border city amidst the snowstorm, he could only secretly care for her under the guise of caring for a widow—offering her warmth on cold nights, shielding her from gossip, and feeding her medicine while she was ill.

Her half-sister, who had usurped her identity and enjoyed great favor, repeatedly sent people to eliminate her. In each life-or-death crisis, he secretly shielded her from harm. Beneath the physician's duty lay a deep affection hidden for years, never daring to speak of it. Under the cold moonlight of the palace, the two gazed at each other, loving yet restrained, finding redemption in each other. The atmosphere is exquisite, a bittersweet blend of love and heartbreak, the mutual restraint is deeply moving. 📖 *Reborn on Engagement Night, Tearing Apart the Scumbag and Marrying a Top Tycoon* ✨ Tags: Rebirth | Revenge and Slap in the Face | Sweet Romance in a Wealthy Family | Contractual Relationship In her previous life, she was blinded by love and betrayed by her fiancé and hypocritical sister, resulting in the destruction of her family and a tragic death in an alley.

In her previous life, he silently protected her for ten years. In this life, the reborn heroine will not repeat her mistakes.
