The Concubine-Born Daughter Takes Her Sister's Place, and the Ruthless General Dotes on Her

Fu Yunqian was the most overlooked concubine-born daughter in her family.

She knew she wasn't clever and was slow to react. With no birth mother to protect her, the only way to survive in a sprawling household was to be obedient, keep her head down, and curry favor with her stepmother.

So when her stepmother smiled and asked her to marry in place of her pampered legitimate elder sister, into the fearsome Great General's household, she nodded.

Gongs rang and drums thundered as red candles burned bright. The moment her veil was gently lifted, Fu Yunqian's delicate shoulders trembled. She timidly raised her eyes and blurted out, "The general isn't ugly, either..."

The usually stern Great General Chen Chun froze at her words. Looking at the delicate beauty before him, he let out a low laugh, the frost in his eyes melting away. "Oh? Then, my lady, are you satisfied with your husband?"

Fu Yunqian's blush spread from her face to the nape of her neck. Clutching her handkerchief, she replied in a voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz, "I-I am satisfied."

Chen Chun had lived a decisive, ferocious life, crossing mountains of blades and seas of blood. He had never known retreat or caution, until he married his timid, delicate, soft and sweet little wife.

The great general, who had dominated battlefields, learned to rein in his fearsome temper and lower his voice.

Others feared him, but he was always afraid of frightening his little wife.
