In her previous life, Liu Fuyue had a sworn enemy who competed with her over everything. Reborn ten years in the past, she decided to head to the capital early and build up her influence while her rival was still young.
Who could have guessed that on the way to the capital, she would unexpectedly save her rival and her stepmother, who had been driven out of their home and were on the verge of starving to death?
Her rival was already hateful at such a young age, but her rival's mother was the complete opposite: not only was she beautiful, she was also as gentle as flowing water.
Liu Fuyue had only remarked on the difference between mother and daughter, but her rival, who was only ten, somehow concluded that she had feelings for her mother and insisted on marrying the woman off to her.
Liu Fuyue was at a loss for words. She was just about to refuse when she caught sight of her rival's mother's captivating face.
Remembering that the beauty was destined to die young in the original timeline while protecting her rival, Liu Fuyue acted on impulse and reached out to her. "Would you be willing to marry me, madam?"
The beauty's eyes shifted, and she looked slightly astonished.
Astonishment wasn't an answer. Liu Fuyue was about to ask again when she saw the dazed beauty shyly nod.
A blush spread across her snow-white skin, slowly blooming outward, growing deeper and wider...
So beautiful.
Marry her!
She was going to marry her rival's mother!
Whoever tried to stop her would have to fight her for it!
[Bonus Scene]
Chi Tanyan was reborn.
She vowed to change the fate of her aunt, who had died tragically. Then she discovered that she had taken the surname Liu, and that her aunt had married the enemy who had killed her in her previous life.
This was certainly bad news.
But Liu Fuyue had avenged her and her aunt, and doted on her aunt in every possible way, never refusing her anything.
She decided to let go of her prejudices.
Liu Fuyue was a good person, just... a bit of a flirt.
The decisive, ruthless Liu Fuyue from her previous life became like a vine around her aunt, clinging to her day after day. Even when she spoke, her voice turned soft and timid, and she was always pretending to be pitiful.
Feeling the death glare from her former rival, Liu Fuyue tightened her arms around Chi Jingxue.
Leaning her weight against Chi Jingxue, she complained pitifully about her rival: "My lady, Xiao Yan is glaring at me."
Chi Jingxue furrowed her brow slightly. "Xiao Yan, Fuyue is your stepmother, after all. Even if you don't like her, you should still respect her."
Liu Fuyue held Chi Jingxue tight, casting a sidelong glance at her rival, whose mouth was twitching as she struggled to speak. She felt even more pleased with herself.
Her wife loved her most!
