[Coming Soon: Reborn as My Rival in Love, I Successfully Divorced]
Yao Niang is a winner in life in everyone's eyes. Born a country girl, she married into a marquis's household as the wife of its young heir.
Her husband, Gu Lin, is an exceptional man, famous from a young age and devoted to propriety.
People say Yao Niang is unworthy of being the young heir's wife, but no one knows that she nearly ruined her eyesight trying to save him.
To repay her, Gu Lin married her, and their life together was fairly loving and happy.
Who could have guessed that upon arriving in the capital, she would see the dazzling Princess Mingxi throw herself into his arms and pour out her tender feelings for him?
Only then did Yao Niang learn that Gu Lin and Princess Mingxi had grown up together. Even after he married her, the princess still refused to give up on marrying him.
Because of her lowly status, Yao Niang was demoted to concubine. She not only lost the child she was carrying, but was also burned alive in a fire.
She thought she had died, but when she opened her eyes again, she had become her own rival in love, Princess Mingxi, the woman who had caused her death.
Everyone knows Gu Lin loves Princess Mingxi more than life itself. For her, he forced his first wife to become a concubine and even plotted to take her life.
But who knew that Princess Mingxi was the one left alone in her chambers day and night, and that she was also the one poisoned and on the brink of death?
Gu Lin was a gentleman of noble character who followed the rules of propriety. Yet on the day Yao Niang died, he went mad and dug through the burned-out courtyard for three days and nights.
He hated the emperor and empress, hated Princess Mingxi, and hated himself even more! So he wanted to destroy everything.
When he learned that Yao Niang had been reborn and married someone else,
he tried like a rabid dog to pull her into his arms. His bloodshot eyes were filled with pleading. "Yao Niang, this time, let me be the one to wait for you, all right?"
Before Yao Niang could answer, the powerful and ruthless chief minister at her side kicked him down the steps.
Yong Xin's dark eyes were cruel as he smiled coldly. "Get lost! Stop dreaming!"
Everyone knows the current chief minister, Yong Xin, is corrupt, ruthless, and merciless.
But no one knows that every night he dreams of a woman beneath him, sighing softly. He has never been able to see her face.
Until he saw the former wife of Young Lord Gu. At last, the woman in his dreams had a face.
He has yearned for her through two lifetimes. This time, even if it ruins his reputation, he will never let her go.
