In her previous life, Qing Junfei refused to marry in the princess's place and was beaten to death by the empress in front of the palace gates. By the time the bridal sedan arrived, her body was mangled beyond recognition.
Reborn, she returns to the day of the wedding, amid ten miles of bridal finery and a celebration throughout the land.
Qing Junfei grits her teeth. "I'll marry him! Why shouldn't I?"
She thought she'd become a mere ornament in the marquis's estate, live out her days without interacting with the young marquis, and enjoy a quiet life of her own.
Who could have guessed that Xiao Yiliang, the cold-faced marquis of legend, would be so much more clingy than she'd imagined?
In the kitchen, Qing Junfei reaches for the vegetables soaking in water, and Xiao Yiliang takes both her hands, gently breathing warm air over them. "My Jun'er is so delicate. What if the cold water hurts your hands?"
In the courtyard, Qing Junfei reaches down to pick up some soil for planting flowers, and Xiao Yiliang brushes the dirt from her palm. "The soil is filthy. What if it gets your hands dirty, my Jun'er?"
As everyone frolics around the estate, Qing Junfei is just about to tug at someone's sleeve when Xiao Yiliang pulls her into his arms. "My Jun'er..."
Qing Junfei sighs. Why is this marquis nothing like the man in the rumors?
