The Unfaithful Woman's Third Marriage

A cool, aloof immortal who bears the weight of the world x an earnest, kindhearted, slow-to-catch-on physician Who gets married to the same person three times? For the first wedding, she brings only her love and asks for nothing but to be by your side. For the second, she demands money and status, insists you invite her three times and refuse her three times, and expects you to come a thousand miles to fetch her. For the third, she wants nothing at all. She wants your life! Zhu Yunshu has been married twice. Her first wife was Lin Zhuxin, a peerless prodigy she could never hope to match. By a twist of fate, Zhu Yunshu saved Lin Zhuxin’s life, so naturally Lin Zhuxin had to repay her by marrying her. Overflowing with joy and bashful anticipation, Zhu Yunshu went to join her destined partner, only to be publicly scolded in the wedding hall for using a favor to demand repayment and foolishly imagining she had a chance. Overnight, she went from a phoenix soaring to the treetops to the laughingstock of the world. Her second wife was still Lin Zhuxin, but this time their positions were reversed. After failing her tribulation, Lin Zhuxin’s mind regressed to that of an innocent young girl, and Zhu Yunshu, out of a physician’s benevolence (no, because she was broke and wanted a hefty fee), saved her. But Lin Zhuxin, with her damaged mind, was much more lovable than the proud, high-and-mighty woman she used to be. With an innocent and sincere girl’s heart, she knew nothing of weighing pros and cons, only that they had to rely on each other. Zhu Yunshu admits she has no backbone. She fell for her again. But once bitten, twice shy. You were the one who threw me out last time, so you’ll have to meet a whole list of conditions if you want me back. Her partner sent a grand bridal sedan with eight bearers, a road paved with auspicious clouds, and came a thousand miles to welcome Zhu Yunshu home again. But at the wedding hall, someone appeared and told the sect’s immortal maiden that she and Lin Zhuxin had been betrothed long ago, and Lin Zhuxin had simply forgotten. She accused Zhu Yunshu of taking advantage of her. How could someone as proud as Lin Zhuxin be trapped in a love that offered her nothing? Once her mind was restored, she discarded her wife like a worn-out shoe and joined forces with an immortal maiden who matched her in strength. Zhu Yunshu knew they could only grow further apart. She watched Lin Zhuxin rise to great heights, then devoted herself to cultivating her medical skills. But after successfully passing her tribulation and achieving fame and success, Lin Zhuxin came back again. Having learned her lesson twice, Zhu Yunshu had finally seen the light: if you can’t hold on to the sand, you might as well let it scatter. Zhu Yunshu had moved on, but Lin Zhuxin couldn’t. The sand she tried to scatter would only come back on its own. The above is told solely from Zhu Yunshu’s perspective. Neither woman is a scumbag or a doormat, and it has a happy ending. Coming next: My Dao Companion Is a Little Demon World-weary demon hunter x crafty little demon who can’t quite figure things out After Xu Qianling, whose devoted love had gone unreturned, was skinned and dismembered, she was reborn in the flames. After narrowly escaping death, she swore never to give her heart to anyone again. Demons born of the same root: kill! Immortals who aren’t of our kind: kill! And Song Yusheng, the demon-hunting celestial master, most of all: kill, kill, kill! Oh no, she nearly got killed instead. If you can’t beat them, join them. Besides, this little immortal, who gets by on her father’s influence, moves freely between the worlds of yin and yang. But why is this little immortal so nice? Could she have an ulterior motive? Oh, well. I’m living under her roof, so I might as well play along. But how did our fake romance turn real? Theme: A day of marriage earns a hundred days of affection, but a hundred days of marriage make for an even deeper grudge.
