In her first life, her home was no longer a home. Cui Yueyao died in the deadly snare woven by her birth family and her husband's family together.
In her second life, she carefully maneuvered her way to become the one in control of the marquis's household. But the country was no longer a country, and she died alongside countless commoners on the night Ning'an City fell.
The first time, she died full of resentment. The second time, she died in despair. Yet Heaven granted her another chance to start over for a third time.
Cui Yueyao could only shake her head. Since she hadn't managed to die for good after one life or two, she might as well do as she pleased. This time, whether it was something she dared or didn't dare to imagine, something she could or couldn't do, she would be the one in control.
*
In her new life, the only person Cui Yueyao kept in her heart was Qi You.
Qi You had collected her body in her first life, and he was the one who refused to abandon her when she reached the end of the road in her second.
The boy she had casually saved became the person who treated her most sincerely in both lives.
This time, she would lead him step by step to a position he had never dared to dream of.
*
Qi You had never imagined that anyone could dote on him so much.
She pulled him out of the mire and told him that from then on, she would be his older sister, his family.
It was a pity she didn't belong to him alone, but that was all right.
When she married, he saw her off.
When her husband's family was disgraced and arrested, he had already prepared divorce papers and was waiting to bring her home.
Since she had called him family, he would welcome her into his bridal sedan and make her his family for real.
They were meant to belong to each other alone.
