Rong Yufu has skin as fair as snow and is naturally beautiful.

After an accident left her kidnapped by bandits at a temple, she was rescued by Pei Jinheng, the heir to the Duke's mansion, who happened to be passing by.

They fell in love at first sight, won their parents' approval, and were joined in marriage.

Unexpectedly, just before the wedding, Pei Jinheng had an accident and vanished without a trace. The Pei family then brought back Pei Suzhou, who had been raised elsewhere.

The two were twins, but because of a Taoist priest's prediction that one brother would bring misfortune to the other, Pei Jinheng was born frail while Pei Suzhou was born a freak.

To hide Pei Jinheng's disappearance, the Pei family had no choice but to make Pei Suzhou pretend to be his sickly older brother.

Full of anticipation, Yufu married him, never imagining that on their wedding night, the gentle, refined Jinheng of her memories would suddenly turn cold and ruthless.

After their marriage, Yufu kept to her duties and did her utmost to play the part of a virtuous wife and mother.

But her husband's gaze grew stranger with every passing day.

At last, one day, she stumbled upon two identical men in her husband's study.

-

Pei Suzhou had been branded from birth as ill-fated, with a fearsome appearance and misfortune clinging to him. His own twin brother was frail from childhood, and the family blamed everything on him.

He thought he would have to live hidden away like this for a long time. Then one day, dressed in wedding clothes, he took Pei Jinheng's place at the wedding.

When the bridal veil was lifted, it revealed a face of captivating beauty.

A wicked thought suddenly arose in Pei Suzhou's heart.

He wanted to take everything from Pei Jinheng, including the woman before him.

He was the one who exchanged vows with her, and he was the one who shared her wedding night. Even the children they might have one day would carry his blood, Pei Suzhou's blood.

This would be his greatest revenge against Pei Jinheng.

-

Pei Suzhou thought he would never fall for Yufu, since the person she loved with all her heart was his brother. But later, when the young woman wept helplessly and begged him to let her go, he tenderly wiped away her tears and stroked her lips, saying slowly, “A Fu, don't cry. It's bad for the baby.”

At that, she cried even harder.

The Pei family had twin sons. The elder was gentle as jade, a model of an aristocrat; the younger was ruthless and secretive, a presence kept out of sight.

Yufu thought she had married Pei Jinheng, bright and pure as the moon. She never realized that the man who kept her company day after day was Pei Suzhou.

On the day she learned the truth, she was desperate and helpless. But the man remained unhurried, his eyes bloodshot with obsession as he gently caressed her cheek.

He could give up anything.

Except her.

He would never give her up.

Jiang Mian lost both her parents, and the grandmother who had always cherished her passed away from illness. Fortunately, her maternal uncle sent someone to bring her to his home.

Although Jiang Mian lived cautiously, her days were peaceful enough until one day she accidentally discovered her uncle's real reason for bringing her there: he intended to offer her as a gift to a powerful court official.

Unwilling to let others dictate her fate, Jiang Mian turned her attention to her cousin, a man always known for his aloof purity and indifference to worldly affairs.

In fact, she had been deeply impressed by Shen Ji from the very first day she met him.

She was peerlessly beautiful and dazzlingly alluring. If she made an effort to be pleasant, no man could refuse any of her requests.

But he was the one exception.

He looked down on the world, and when the cold sword in his hand rested against her delicate, soft neck, he seemed not to realize that the person before him was a beautiful young woman.

Yet it was precisely his cold indifference that gave rise to an indescribable thought in her mind:

She wanted to drag this exalted, sacred man down to earth, to see him succumb to desire for her, unable to restrain his feelings.

Only then could she escape her uncle's control and marry the man she loved.

Jiang Mian had always believed she loved Shen Ji.

It wasn't until later, when the man became utterly infatuated with her and fell deeply in love, just as she had wanted, that she realized things weren't so simple.

If she spoke a few extra words to someone else, he would pin her against a door when they were alone and force her to call him “older brother.”

Or if she smiled a few times at some young man, he would say nothing to her face, only mutter darkly behind her back, “If you like that young master's looks, why don't I strip off his skin and make a gift of it for you?”

Only then did she realize that the man before her wasn't as free of desire as she'd thought. He was a madman who had hidden himself exceptionally well.

She trembled, regretting more than anything that she had ever provoked him.

By day, he was her “respected” cousin.

At night, he seemed like a different person, often stealing kisses while she slept.

At last, Jiang Mian could no longer bear this suffocating life and decided to find a chance to leave.

Just then, her childhood sweetheart appeared. It turned out that he was the very man her uncle had intended to offer her to.

Jiang Mian had no romantic feelings for her childhood sweetheart, but at that moment, she truly saw him as her only lifeline.

Marrying Song Mingyan might be far better than staying by her cousin's side.

She secretly planned her escape, treading carefully so her cousin wouldn't find out. Little did she know, the man had seen through her intentions all along.

On the day of the wedding, she climbed into the bridal sedan bound for the Song residence and felt a little relieved. But when the bridal veil was lifted, she couldn't believe she was looking at her cousin, wearing a languid yet triumphant expression.

“I had no idea there was someone else in your heart.”

He spoke with a smile, but there wasn't a trace of amusement in his eyes. Jiang Mian could even see a hint of violence in them.

Before she could cry out in shock, he continued, “Tonight is our wedding night. No one will come and disturb us.”

She thought she'd finally escaped.

But she had never been free of his control.

And he...

Could be both her cousin and her husband.

The leads are not related by blood, and each has their own identity.
