Two Husbands

Unhinged heroine / twin substitute / If the whole world turns against me, I'll take revenge on the whole world

*

Qiao Yuanhua, the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, and the Seventh Prince, Ye Nanxing, met as children and fell in love. The emperor personally arranged their engagement. They were a match made in heaven.

A grand bridal procession stretched for ten miles, and the whole city celebrated.

When her veil was lifted, Yuanhua looked at the man she hadn't seen in years: strong brows, bright eyes, and an extraordinary bearing.

The red candles flickered. Her cheeks flushed, and she couldn't help softly calling, "Brother Nan."

She didn't know that when he heard those words, his cold, proud eyes turned bloodred. Loathing her to the utmost, he pinned her beneath him and tormented her again and again, as if to take revenge.

That day, the wedding night Yuanhua had anticipated with all her heart became a nightmare she could never bear to recall.

Day after day, people gossiped about their storybook marriage.

Yuanhua was trapped deep in the inner residence, her love slowly dwindling in endless darkness. "Brother Nan, have you... forgotten me?"

Ye Nanxing gazed down at the woman in his arms with tender affection, then suddenly turned sinister. He lifted her chin and murmured like a ghost, "Yuan-yuan, how many times have I told you? What should you call me...?"

"Mo... My lord."

"Good girl."

He smiled, at last getting what he wanted. Yuanhua, however, wept and chose to give everything up.

During the two years Yuanhua was gone, Ye Nanxing went completely mad.

A political upheaval swept through the court. Everyone feared for their lives, all terrified of this fiend from hell.

The day he found Yuanhua, she had a baby in her arms, and at her side was...

A happy family of three.

He clenched his fist, a strange smile curling his lips. "Brother, now that you've recovered, are you trying to take everything back again?"

They both froze.

Ye Nanxing reached out and pulled Yuanhua tightly into his arms, his voice hoarse. "Yuan-yuan, you're the only one I don't want to give up to him... even if you mistake me for him..."
