*The powerful minister still hasn't turned over a new leaf today, and he's as sick and doglike as ever.

Yue Lanyu, the only daughter of Prefect Yue, was a beauty famed throughout Jiangnan. Since childhood, she had been engaged to Wei Zhanchen, the youngest son of Duke Wei.

Unfortunately, Wei Zhanchen was suddenly poisoned and attacked before the wedding. They said he wouldn't live more than three years.

Worried for his daughter, Prefect Yue broke off the engagement and married Yue Lanyu to Su Ziyao, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.

Who could have guessed that Su Ziyao already had someone he loved? The Su family had only coveted the Yue family's wealth. As soon as Yue Lanyu arrived in the capital, Su Ziyao sent her away to a country villa.

Reborn into a new life.

On her wedding night, Yue Lanyu met Director Wei for the first time.

His face was deathly pale and gloomy, that of a sickly man, but beneath his clothes his physique was strong and muscular.

The dreaded Director Wei of the capital leaned against the bed, gazing indifferently at that peerlessly beautiful face.

"Your husband is frail. I'm afraid I won't be able to satisfy you, Ah Yu."

Yue Lanyu's lashes trembled, and she couldn't bring herself to look up.

Only the next day, with tears at the corners of her eyes, did Yue Lanyu say, "Since your poison hasn't been cured, my lord, you should get plenty of rest from now on."

In his previous life, Wei Zhanchen had only learned that his engagement was over after waking from the poisoning. Now, looking at Yue Lanyu beside him, he curled his lips into a cold smile. "What? Am I still not as good as that dear cousin of yours?"

Yue Lanyu: ...? This is bad.
