The Cousin Miss Married the Wrong Man

[Main Story Complete] [Preorder: Please add my next novel, Forced to Become the Crown Prince's Bedchamber Maid, to your reading list!]

Shen Tingyue was raised in the waterside towns of Jiangnan. She was beautiful and alluring, with a graceful, slender figure.

A letter arrived from her maternal aunt, a secondary wife in the Duke of Zhenguo's household, inviting her to spend some time in the capital. In truth, her aunt planned to marry her off to Lu Ting, the eldest son of the duke's first wife, to secure her own standing in the household.

Shen Tingyue often dreamed of a handsome, noble man. Every time she woke, the sheets beneath her were soaked. The man in her dreams had to be someone rich and powerful, so she decided to try her luck in the capital.

After Shen Tingyue, a young cousin by marriage, entered the household, the old madam and the couple heading the main branch took a strong liking to her. Her wedding was set for three months later.

One day, the Lu family attended a spring banquet at the palace. Shen Tingyue slipped and fell into a lake, and Lu Yun, the heir of the third branch, pulled her out.

Everyone lamented that Shen Tingyue's marriage to Lu Ting was over. They said that with her status, she could only become a concubine to the eldest son of the Princess Royal.

But Lu Yun proved himself responsible and was willing to marry her as his wife.

As she fell into the lake, Lu Yun gripped Shen Tingyue tightly by her slender waist. Biting her lip and trembling, she cried with a shy, pleading sweetness, "Uncle, please don't..."

Lu Yun sneered. Uncle? In their previous life, when she clung to his bed and called him "Lang," she hadn't acted so chaste.

[Coercive Possession] [The Pursuer's Regret]

A Fu was a little maid in the empress's flower room, with clear, limpid eyes and a delicate beauty.

She saved her own money as she waited to come of age and leave the palace, so she could spend the rest of her life with her beloved, the heir of Marquis Changping.

But Crown Prince Pei Shao of the Eastern Palace was about to marry a princess from a neighboring kingdom and urgently needed a maid to "test the bed." The reward was twenty taels of silver.

When her younger sister fell victim to misfortune, A Fu undressed, went barefoot into the crown prince's bedchamber, and took her sister's place in his bed.

That night, the broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted man was almost crushing her. A Fu gritted her teeth and endured his rough treatment.

The crown prince despised her low birth, but was thoroughly pleased with her body. He granted her a favor, telling her to think it over and give him her answer.

A Fu bowed in thanks, but after leaving, she accidentally ran into the second prince.

The beauty who had just been favored was dressed in white, barefoot, and glistening with sweat, her every movement alluring.

The second prince leered at her, determined to take such a rare beauty into his household.

A Fu refused to become a concubine. With nowhere else to turn, she went to the crown prince and begged him to save her, offering the favor he had granted her that night in exchange.

The beauty, nearly violated, wept pitifully. Her clothes had even been torn.

The crown prince gave a faint, mocking smile and said nonchalantly, "I grant your request."

A Fu was saved. But after receiving her manumission papers and leaving the palace, finally free, she spotted a lavish blue carriage waiting outside the palace gates.

She immediately understood: the crown prince had never planned to let her go!

The young woman knelt before him in tears, timid and sweet. "Your Highness, A Fu is free now..."

That night, after satisfying himself, Pei Shao patiently coaxed her for once. "I've already agreed to let you enter the Eastern Palace as a concubine. What is there to cry about?"

As A Fu stared at the figure she could barely endure, an unmentionable thought took root in her heart.

At first, the crown prince thought she was merely a shallow, foolish maid with nothing but a pretty face.

Since she had received his favor, he might as well keep her.

But after he returned to the capital in triumph and searched the Eastern Palace from top to bottom without finding A Fu, he finally understood: her gentle humility and pitiful sweetness had all been a ploy to buy time!

Months later, a crowd of soldiers suddenly gathered outside a cosmetics shop in Jiangzhou.

The Imperial Guards split into two lines. At their head stood a peerlessly handsome man with a wicked, sinister smile, like a demon from hell.

A Fu was so frightened that all color drained from her lips. She cowered behind her husband.

Pei Shao leaned close, his dark eyes cold and his voice sinister. "A runaway concubine, and you still dare to marry?"
