Rugged Tyrant x Gentle Beauty
An Luan came from a distinguished family of scholars and was a gentle, cultured young woman.
An Luan married Pei Song, believing they would spend their lives together, growing old hand in hand.
Then she discovered that a door, always kept locked behind a high wall, had been left ajar. Through the window, she heard someone inside breathing hard.
Pei Song explained that he thought she was narrow-minded and couldn't tolerate him keeping a mistress.
Just then, chaos erupted in the city. As An Luan lay dying beneath a blade, she finally saw that the mistress Pei Song had protected looked seven-tenths like her.
So she had been a substitute all along...

An Luan was reborn at the age of eighteen, just as she and Pei Song were discussing marriage. She was fretting over how to call off the engagement when a prince of another surname forcibly took her as his wife.
Rumor had it that this prince, Fu Lingyun, had three heads and six arms and a violent temper.
On their wedding night, she nervously fell into a pair of strong, broad arms. Looking up, she met his deep-set eyes, which seemed strangely familiar.
He gazed at her with adoration, lowered his head, and kissed her.
