After My Husband Fell for Someone Else

Coming soon: "The Mute Bride." The blurb is at the very end.

My name is Gu Zhao. I used to be a person, but now I'm a ghost.

When I was alive, I promised Li Mingqi that we would belong to each other for our whole lives.

As a ghost, I wanted to see whether he could keep that promise.

I watched him hold my corpse and grieve as if his heart would break.

I watched him vow to live and die with her.

I watched him become like a walking corpse and swear he would never marry again.

I watched him take a new consort five years later.

I watched him and his new wife live in harmony, have children, and love one another.

I watched their children grow up as he forgot me a little more each day.

Only when he, too, lay in that cold coffin

did I suddenly realize that I had been a ghost for twenty-eight years...

Once, you said we'd be together for our whole lives, that I would be your only one. But in the end, you broke your promise.

It turns out love changes in an instant. Forever is just a phrase to set the mood.

Just when I thought I could finally be free, I woke from a sleep and found myself back at twenty-one.

Looking at my unchanged face and the man I once loved, I felt that my heart had died long ago.

The point of being reborn is to make up for past regrets, but they had already missed each other across time and space...

Coming soon: "The Mute Bride"

In fairy tales, lies make your nose grow long.

In this dynasty, things are even more extreme: if you lie, you get killed!

Li Zhen, an office worker ground down by her job, transmigrated to an ancient world that was even stranger than it looked.

Everyone could only tell the truth. The only ones who could lie were the exalted emperor and those who had been "possessed."

Li Zhen's vision went black. She might as well have gone back to being a wage slave...

Luckily, she transmigrated into the body of a mute. Unable to speak, she naturally couldn't lie, and so she survived by sheer luck.

That was until she met Prince Jin, Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu of the Northern Bureau specialized in capturing people suspected of being "possessed." It was probably something like the Eastern Depot's Embroidered Uniform Guard.

His job was a headache, and he was being pressured to marry. He was exhausted in both body and mind.

Hey, there's a mute here. I'll marry her.

Li Zhen: Don't come any closer!

Thesis: Cherish the present.
