After My Elder Sister Stole My Fiancé

Coming soon: The Legitimate Eldest Daughter. Please add it to your reading list, thank you~

When Yu Jinnian was nearly of age for her hairpin ceremony, she finally returned to the capital to live with her parents. There, she also met the man she wanted to spend her life with: Prince Jin, Xiao Chenling.

Like a heavenly god, Xiao Chenling saved her from danger. At a banquet, he gave her a pair of mandarin duck pendants, promising her a lifetime together. And when a crowd of noble young ladies sneered and mocked her, he stood up for her beneath his umbrella.

He cupped her face in his hands and said adoringly, “You’re so beautiful.”

Only when her older sister broke off her engagement did Yu Jinnian learn that all his affection and love were because she had a face identical to her sister’s.

Her sister wept bitterly. “I knew him first. I never imagined he’d treat you as my substitute. Don’t worry, little sister. Even if it costs me my life, I won’t ruin your marriage.”

Then she turned and truly hanged herself. Yu Jinnian was left to face everyone’s blame.

So that was it. The affection she thought came from more than a decade of longing was a lie. The bond she thought her twin sister shared with her was a lie. Even Xiao Chenling’s promise that they would be together for life was all a lie.

You want him? Then he’s yours!

Yu Jinnian turned and walked away without hesitation. Behind her, a young man smiled warmly, a tenderness in his eyes she had never noticed before.

One-on-one romance, a groveling arc, and a new male lead.

Blurb for the upcoming novel:

Su Yuan, the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, spent her whole life following the rules. She obeyed her father and entered the palace to become empress, then helped the young prince ascend the throne and became empress dowager.

But when the deposed crown prince surrounded the imperial city with his troops, her family forced Su Yuan to shoulder all the emperor’s wrath on their behalf. Her own mother, Madam Su, gave her a cup of poisoned wine, ending Su Yuan’s life in her twentieth year.

When she opened her eyes again, Su Yuan had returned to the age of fourteen. She was still the prime minister’s eldest legitimate daughter, the most distinguished young lady in the capital.

But this time, she had no intention of being the model noblewoman.

She would be reckless and enjoy herself to the fullest. Yet when she glanced back and met the gaze of the crown prince who had been her enemy in her previous life, she panicked and fled.

Theme: Be self-reliant and independent. Don’t be a clinging vine.
