Sister Lin Gets Married Again

- A slow burn, with surprises later! Really!

- This is a novel where the man gets put through the wringer, trust me!!!

At twenty-five, Lin Shengsheng had never been in a relationship. Then, in a single moment, she transmigrated and became a heartbreaker who had married every kind of person under the sun: nobles, commoners, gods and immortals, demons and monsters.

The first time she married, her husband was Song An, her senior apprentice brother. His smile was like a cloud on the horizon, pure and beautiful. Unfortunately, he was blind, had trouble speaking, and was terminally ill: beautiful to look at, but useless in practice.

So when he said he wanted to marry her, Lin Shengsheng thought she must have misheard. A man with those shortcomings wanting to marry a sweet, clever young woman could only be motivated by lust or shamelessness. She gave him a thorough tongue-lashing and spat right in his face.

But Song An was set on marrying his junior apprentice sister, Lin Shengsheng.

She was driven to desperation. She bit his mouth until it split, leaving a terrible gash on his lips, then watched helplessly as someone broke his leg, leaving him unable to walk ever again...

Surely, after all that, he wouldn't want to marry her anymore...

Who would have guessed that the very next day, he'd come knocking again, leaning on a broken walking stick?

Cornered against a wall, she felt a warm, soft touch press against her lips, like a dragonfly skimming the water. It was there for an instant, then gone.

"Shengsheng, I'll marry you."

W-who could possibly resist that? He was a handsome man, after all. Since he was so shamelessly persistent, she might as well... give him what he wanted. Whether or not she married him could wait. First, she'd have him.

The first time Xu Tingyun married Lin Shengsheng, he was ten and she was sixteen. It was arranged by their parents to bring good fortune.

He couldn't stand the sight of her. He was the second son of the River God, destined to marry the noble daughter of the Sea God when he grew up. How could he let himself be stuck with an ugly woman like her? So he ignored her, teased her, and even locked her in a water dungeon. She seemed not to care at all and kept smiling at him, tears in her eyes, making his heart uneasy.

Many years later, their parents arranged another marriage. The ugly woman was secretly sent away and offered as a bride to the Demon King. He went mad searching for her, but all he found was her corpse.

"Shengsheng, since you married me, you can only be my wife, in this life and every life to come."

Later, a strange tale spread through the streets. The Changliu River in the Northern Territory turned red overnight, and a blood-soaked white dragon burst from its depths, soaring into the sky and diving back to earth, killing the Sea God and the Demon King, all so he could bring a corpse home as his bride.

[Reader's Guide]

1. Seven worlds, six romances, five ex-husbands (the final life is a little rough on the heroine [but she's clever and doesn't let herself get hurt]; in all the others, the men are the ones who suffer, and suffer terribly. So yes, this is a novel where the men get put through the wringer!!! If you read it and think the heroine is being mistreated, come yell at me.)

2. 1v1 from beginning to end, both leads are single and chaste. The heroine is actually 25, and the hero is 26.

3. Both leads transmigrate. They save each other (the heroine travels from the first world onward, while the hero travels from the last world backward).

4. This isn't a tragic novel; it's light and cheerful.

5. Includes divination theories such as Qimen Dunjia, Zi Wei Dou Shu, and Mei Hua Yi Shu. The author knows a little, but isn't an expert. Anyone who knows about metaphysics is welcome to chat with me~
