The Frail Beauty Is Spoiled by a Powerful Tycoon [Reborn]

The sickly Jiang Shu was reborn, back to a time before the Jiang family claimed him.

As the Jiang family's abandoned son, Jiang Shu spent his first eighteen years enduring one hardship after another.

He was ostracized at school and abused at home. When the Jiang family finally took him back as their real young master, he gave his heart to the wrong people and was forced to marry in his younger brother's place, to Xie Ruiyi, a ruthless business tycoon.

His whole family looked forward to seeing Jiang Shu suffer after the marriage.

But to everyone's surprise, after the wedding, Xie Ruiyi, whom outsiders called cold and heartless, gave Jiang Shu all his tenderness.

Whenever Jiang Shu woke in a panic in the middle of the night, he would see Xie Ruiyi half-reclining by the bed, gripping his hand tightly.

He would turn down every work commitment to teach him to write and paint at home, and take him on trips to the mountains and rivers.

When Jiang Shu was delirious, he would softly call his name.

On the brink of death, a tear slid from Jiang Shu's eye. "I wish I could have met you sooner."

When he opened his eyes again, Jiang Shu's gaze was filled with ruthlessness.

This time, I'll make my own way to you.

When he learned his adoptive father was involved in fraud and kidnapping, he pretended to be weak while secretly gathering evidence, then sent him to prison in one fell swoop.

When he learned a classmate had hired someone to beat him up, he changed clothes in secret and watched as the classmate was mistaken for him and beaten badly enough to land in the hospital. The classmate had brought it on himself.

When he learned his younger brother had scalded him, he watched coldly as his brother's attempt backfired and he fell face-first into a pot of boiling broth, horribly disfiguring himself.

His birth parents looked at him in terror and knelt to beg him: His younger brother was already disfigured. Couldn't he be the one to marry Xie Ruiyi?

Jiang Shu's eyes were resolute. "He's mine. No one can steal him from me."

His parents said one thing and did another. They secretly moved the wedding date forward and sent his younger brother in his place.

When Jiang Shu heard, he yanked out his IV, grabbed a knife, and stormed straight to the Jiang family home.

But there he saw Xie Ruiyi send his younger brother packing, then declare in front of the entire Jiang family that he wanted only Jiang Shu.

Feeling that familiar warmth once more, Jiang Shu shed a tear for the first time. "Why?"

Xie Ruiyi took his hand, which was bleeding profusely. "I just realized that without me around, a certain little guy can't take care of himself at all. He gets bullied until he's covered in wounds."

Xie Ruiyi said, "I couldn't stand it, so I came to stand up for you."
