"Ruoruo, come on. Brother Lie will take you home."
Looking at Qi Lie's still-youthful face, Li Ruo, newly reborn, couldn't stop her vision from blurring.
In her previous life, she left her home to follow him to the capital. Their marriage should have been blissful, but a princess interfered, reducing her to a concubine of secondary rank.
She asked to be set aside, but Qi Lie told her to endure it.
So she gritted her teeth and endured, until she was bedridden with illness. Only after Song Heng came to the capital for her and was unjustly killed in prison under the emperor's suspicions did she finally understand.
She had been nothing but a pawn Qi Lie used to climb to power!
She didn't regret dying, but there was one person she had let down...
The demon said, "Do you know that if you make a deal with a demon, you will never be reincarnated?"
Li Ruo only smiled. "If I can't repay his kindness, how could I face another life?"
...The memory swiftly faded.
Li Ruo reached past Qi Lie and placed her hand firmly in the other person's.
"Song Heng, I'm so scared..."
Song Heng thought the girl clung to him because she had been frightened. It wasn't until later that he realized she was treating him like her father and showing him filial devotion.
But what was he supposed to do? He only wanted to marry her and bring her home as his wife...
P.S.:
After the heroine is reborn, she gets an outrageously powerful golden finger (not really), and is paired with the super-sweet Mr. Song, the tutor~
A cozy, sweet 1v1 romance, featuring a second male lead who chases his lost love to the crematorium.
