Beloved by a Marquis After Being Cast Aside

[My first book. It's not good, so don't buy it.]

Like ordinary women everywhere, Wang Shuyi obeyed her parents' wishes and married, hoping to share a life of mutual affection and grow old together with her husband.

But after two years without a child, her husband and mother-in-law gradually grew displeased with her. All she could do was watch as a concubine was brought into her husband's home.

Little by little, she became a mere ornament, ignored by everyone.

She thought she would spend her whole life this way,

until a man barged into her life against her will...

Wang Shuyi struggled with all her might. "Please!"

Shen Lou released her lips, pressed against her, and brushed aside the hair stuck to her face, his breathing ragged. "Beg yourself."

Shen Lou held Wang Shuyi close and pointed at the person kneeling on the ground, her ex-husband. He coaxed her softly: "Hit him."

Wang Shuyi obeyed and reached out to slap the man.

Shen Lou gave a mocking laugh and pinched her earlobe. "Pathetic."

Then he turned and kicked the man hard in the chest.

The man collapsed, spitting blood and moaning.

Wang Shuyi turned her face away, trembling slightly.

Shen Lou gently patted her back and held her tightly in his arms.

"Don't be afraid."

Blurb for the recently completed Reborn: The Emperor's Pursuit of His Wife:

The late emperor's two sons fought over the position of Crown Prince and both ended up badly wounded, leaving the unremarkable Seventh Prince, Zhao Cong, to claim the throne.

After ascending the throne, the first thing Zhao Cong did was force Lian Cao's fiance to break off their engagement, then bring her into the palace as his empress.

Later, once his position was secure, he began to suppress the Lian family. Lian Cao's health also deteriorated amid the fear that consumed her day after day.

Watching her grow thinner by the day, his heart softened for a moment, but only for a moment. He turned and ordered her father and brothers executed.

As she lay on the brink of death, she had only one thing to say: "I'm leaving."

He knew those words weren't for him. She had left them for the person she had always held in her heart.

Zhao Cong smiled. She was dying, yet she wouldn't say a single word to him.

He slowly rose to his feet, turned around, and spat out a mouthful of black blood.

That year, he was twenty-six, and his hair had already begun to turn white.

Then he was reborn.

In this life, Lian Cao loved him.

Just as he was basking in his happiness, one night she pressed a sharp dagger to his throat.
