The Bad Bride

[A revenge-seeker determined to destroy her husband's family x an aloof beauty who has died once and still hasn't learned her lesson]

If anyone had told Bai Meike before she turned twelve that one day she would willingly marry someone she didn't love, she would have spat in their face.

As the daughter of the Left Censor-in-Chief, she had loving parents, a kind elder brother, and a sweet younger sister. If she couldn't find someone she liked, so what if she never married?

Then, when she was twelve, the Duke of Qin falsely accused the Bai family of crimes. The men were beheaded, the women exiled, and even on the way to exile, assassins were sent to wipe them out.

In one night, her family was destroyed. She could find no reason to go on living except revenge.

She lived without a name for five years. At last, she found an opportunity to change her name and marry into the Qin household.

She wanted every member of the Qin family to suffer what she had: a ruined family, stripped of their roots and names.

-

Qin Helin was the legitimate son of an old and distinguished family, courteous, proper, and reserved.

After marrying his wife at twenty-three, he gave all his tenderness to her alone. They read poetry together, drank tea, and stood by each other through thick and thin.

She was the person he cherished most in his life, his one and only wife.

But on the night the Qin family fell, he meant to trade his life to keep his wife safe. Instead, his usually gentle and frail wife slowly drove a blade into his neck.

Outside, servants fled in every direction, screaming and wailing. His wife's voice rang clear in his ears:

"I'm sorry I've been lying to you all this time. My real name is..."

"Bai Meike."

When he opened his eyes again, he was back on his wedding night. Staring at that familiar, lovely face, Qin Helin's gaze turned icy. He was determined to repay her for every last thing he had suffered in his previous life.

But later, when Bai Meike really died, he thought that dying with her might be a fine thing after all.

He doesn't care about what came before. He only wants to travel through wind and rain and be the one she comes home to.

One couple, 1v1, happy ending

1. The heroine fakes her death in the blurb.

2. The hero is reborn after the heroine kills him in his previous life. She really does stab him to death.

3. The leads have no children in either their previous or present lives.

4. The leads have no family feud. I won't say more, as it would spoil the story.

Hope you enjoy, dear readers!
