Gu Ning is a noblewoman from an illustrious family, with a lovely appearance. Sadly, her mother died when she was young, and she and her father are not close.
Fortunately, after she married, her mother-in-law treated her with affection, and she and her husband lived in harmony, respecting one another like honored guests.
Gu Ning was content and wanted to live out her days in quiet peace.
One day, she went to Puji Temple to burn incense and give thanks, where she encountered Fu Peiyun.
A celebrated but controversial first-rank general who had made a name for himself while still young, he was her cousin on her maternal side.
They had not seen each other for years. As Gu Ning passed him, she gave him a slight nod. "Cousin."
Gu Ning's eyes were clear. She had already let go of their past and begun a new life.
It was only later that Fu Peiyun realized she simply didn't remember.
Reading note: The characters are imperfect.
The female lead will only begin a new relationship after ending an existing one.
