In her previous life, she was the eldest daughter of the Mo family, but her cousin schemed to steal all her family’s property. Her family was destroyed, and even her unborn child was not spared.
Luckily, she was given another chance at life, with her space intact. This time, she was determined to protect her family, punish wicked women, take down scumbag men, and live life to the fullest as a new version of herself. (That was the plan, anyway.)
Who knew that, in broad daylight, someone would bully a “delicate, virtuous man”? She rushed forward to his aid and loudly declared, “I’ll protect you!” Before she could even settle the infighting at home, she was swept into an even bigger web of schemes and deceit.
And the person she was protecting wasn’t some “delicate, virtuous man” at all. He was Xue Baochai wearing Lin Daiyu’s face: cold, heartless, devious, and full of schemes. He made her lose both her dignity and her heart.
He said, full of hope: “Wife, you have to protect me.”
She said, having seen through his act: “Tsk~~~”
He said, turning his head away with a hint of sadness: “You don’t want to?”
She said through gritted teeth: “I’d be delighted!”
Fine, she would join him in matching wits, fighting evil, and upholding justice. Together, they would create memories of their own.
