In her previous life, Yan Zhiyue volunteered to marry Qi Huairen, the heir to the Marquis of Zhenbei, in place of her legitimate older sister. Both his legs were disabled.
After they married, Qi Huairen was always cold toward Yan Zhiyue.
Yan Zhiyue knew Qi Huairen wanted a divorce, but she didn't. She was determined to cling to him.
People's hearts were made of flesh. One day, Qi Huairen would surely fall for her.
Yan Zhiyue did everything she could for Qi Huairen, but even on the day she died, he had never fallen for her.
The young man who had once given her a sprig of plum blossoms was, in the end, not the one meant for her.
In this life, the Qi family came to ask for her hand, and Yan Zhiyue refused despite her parents' pressure.
But her parents couldn't bear to let their legitimate daughter marry a cripple, so Yan Zhiyue was forced to marry Qi Huairen after all.
She expected to be treated coldly again, just as in her previous life. But Qi Huairen seemed like a different person. Before the wedding, he showered her with attention; afterward, he fussed over her and granted her every wish.
One day, Qi Huairen got carried away during their marital relations and forgot he was supposed to be an invalid.
Yan Zhiyue: This man was faking his limp?!
Qi Huairen: My dear, let me explain.

In his previous life, Qi Huairen thought Yan Zhiyue had been forced to marry him, so he made things difficult for her at every turn, hoping she would give up and divorce him, then find someone more suitable.
Until Yan Zhiyue died.
In the past, whenever he turned over, he would see Yan Zhiyue sleeping peacefully. Now, when he turned over, there was only empty space. She was gone.
Reborn, Qi Huairen hurried to the Yan family to ask for her hand, only to hear Yan Zhiyue say she wouldn't marry him.
How could that be? Yan Zhiyue was his wife. She had been in his previous life, and she would be in this one too.
