Lu Haoxue had always avoided her husband like the plague.
She discovered his secret. He had meant to kill her to keep it quiet, but was forced to marry her instead.
Everyone said it was a shame. A refined gentleman as handsome and outstanding as the top scholar should have married a highborn lady like Commandery Princess Qiongyang. Instead, he had brought home a sickly girl from a humble family. What a waste.

But when he learned that she loved someone else, his heart sank into an icy abyss.
Only then did he understand: this was the bitter fruit he had planted with his own hands.
