Your Fragrance Fills My Sleeves (Reborn)

[Preorder: The Violent General's White Moonlight. Please add it to your collection.]

- Sweet romance / male lead reborn / a seemingly gentle but secretly cunning chancellor forcibly takes his amnesiac childhood sweetheart / childhood friends defeat the newcomer

Gu Wanqing, the Grand Tutor's daughter, is peerlessly beautiful, clever, and eloquent. She is the number one beauty in the capital.

When she comes of age, suitors nearly trample the threshold of the Grand Tutor's residence in their eagerness to marry her.

But Gu Wanqing falls for a minor assistant instructor at the Imperial College at first sight and insists on marrying him.

On the day of the wedding, Wei Chen, the current chancellor who grew up with Gu Wanqing as her childhood friend, arrives uninvited.

In full view of everyone, the chancellor, always upright and proper, self-disciplined and scrupulous about etiquette, forcibly takes away Gu Wanqing, dressed in her phoenix crown and bridal robes.

After leaving the Grand Tutor's residence, Wei Chen throws Gu Wanqing onto the couch in his carriage.

Her phoenix crown askew and her dark hair loose, Gu Wanqing glares at him, shocked and furious. “A Jin, have you gone mad!”

She can't believe that Wei Chen, who used to be gentle and modest and always treated her with propriety, would do something so outrageous and immoral to her.

The man's handsome face is cold, and his whole being radiates murderous hostility.

His phoenix eyes are red at the corners, fierce and restrained. Yet when he looks down at Gu Wanqing, his gaze is tender and full of devotion.

His eyes pass over her glaringly bright wedding clothes. He bends his tall frame, braces both hands beside her, and slowly presses down toward her.

“...Qingqing, since you insist on becoming someone's wife, then from this day on, be my wife, Wei Chen's.”

“I won't!”

Wei Chen leans his handsome face close, wipes away the vivid lipstick on her lips, and bites her hard. “You don't get to decide.”

[A companion to The Possessive Chancellor's Daily Devotion to His Wife]

[Multiple rebirths / sweet romance, marriage before love / the second male lead can't win her back]

In her previous life, by imperial decree, Ban Yao married the Prince of Ding, a man of both literary and martial accomplishments, refined and upright.

She knew the Prince of Ding didn't like her, but thought that with enough warmth and devotion, she would eventually melt his heart.

What she didn't know was that he already had a white moonlight in his heart. That was why he treated her coldly after their marriage and never once entered her chambers.

Three months into their marriage, the Prince of Ding welcomed his white moonlight as a secondary consort. The two were deeply in love.

Ban Yao's heart turned to ashes. With no intention of coming between them, she resigned herself to a lonely life.

Later, the political situation shifted dramatically, and the Prince of Ding ascended the throne. Ban Yao, who should have become empress, was instead accused of plotting to kill the secondary consort and the child in her womb, then imprisoned in a cold courtyard deep within the palace.

The new emperor hated her to the core. He broke both her legs, blinded her, and tortured her day after day, determined to make her wish she were dead.

Ban Yao suffered beyond endurance, yet was forced to cling to life for several years.

Only on the day the emperor and empress announced that they were expecting a child did he finally grant her a cup of poisoned wine, allowing her to find release.

As death approached, Ban Yao calmly closed her eyes, smiled in relief, and shed tears of blood. “Zhao Xuan... I regret marrying you.”

The man who was now Son of Heaven felt his heart tremble. An indescribable ache filled his chest, and his stern expression softened.

-

Reborn, Ban Yao returns to the day Zhao Xuan takes a secondary consort.

Guests arrive one after another. Among them is Helian Xu, a cavalry general who has just returned in triumph from a southern campaign.

She runs into him in the back garden of the Prince of Ding's residence, and he blocks her path, asking coolly, “Do you regret marrying the Prince of Ding?”

Ban Yao freezes for a moment, vaguely recalling that in her previous life, this was the last time the two of them met.

He had asked her the same question then.

But at the time, he was a stone-faced, hot-tempered, blood-soaked, murderous general.

Everyone regarded him as a fiend, holding him in awe and keeping their distance.

Ban Yao had done the same, so her answer had been: No, I don't regret it.

But now...

She gazes steadily at the handsome, heroic man before her, his features bold and striking. Her heart stirs. “If I regret it, General, what will you do?”

The man seems to have planned this long in advance. His voice is cold. “I'll petition His Majesty for an edict permitting you to divorce him.”

Ban Yao is surprised, then overjoyed, before suddenly hesitating. “Then... how should I thank you, General?”

Helian Xu's gaze suddenly darkens. His eyes linger over her face for a moment, his Adam's apple rolling as he answers in a low, husky voice: “Give yourself to me and marry me instead.”

Ban Yao: “???”

-

Later, Ban Yao really does divorce her husband and remarry.

On the day she and Helian Xu wed, Zhao Xuan, usually cool and restrained and scrupulous about etiquette, gets dead drunk and follows the wedding procession all the way.
