Marrying an Old-Fashioned Man for the Second Time

Her Rescue of a Venomous Snake is now available!

Every morning when she woke, Pei Jingque would ask her maid the same question: "How is my reputation today?"

The maid would reply, "My lady, your reputation is even worse than it was yesterday."

Pei Jingque nodded with satisfaction. What reputation did she have to begin with?

As the daughter of the Duke of Cheng'en, Pei Jingque was a notorious libertine in the capital. Everyone scorned her, yet they couldn't help watching her beautiful, uninhibited ways.

Her fiancé, chosen for her when she was young, did not suit her. She went straight to his home and tore up their betrothal agreement. Later, she married the man she had chosen with great fanfare, only to kick him to the curb a few years later.

Perhaps she had lived too recklessly. She didn't make it to twenty-two before she had brought about her own death.

Reborn, she had only just divorced her second husband when Pei Jingque recklessly set her sights on someone who was practically courting death.

Gu Qiao, the current Grand Secretary, and the paternal uncle of her first fiancé.

Everyone in Shengjing knew that Pei Jingque, daughter of the Duke of Cheng'en, was a shameless libertine. Any family that cared about its reputation looked down on her.

Later, the Crown Prince made a mistake, and the Empress was confined deep within the palace. The Pei family had lost its powerful backing, and everyone waited to laugh as Pei Jingque was ground into the dirt.

No one expected her to transform herself and, as a twice-married woman, become the wife of Grand Secretary Gu.

Bah! That shameless, wicked woman must have seduced Grand Secretary Gu!

The first time Gu Qiao met Pei Jingque, she was his nephew's fiancée.

The second time, she had married someone else in grand style.

The third time, she was in his bed...

She had never deliberately tempted him. All there was, was a desire he could no longer suppress.

Next book: After Marrying Up

After a flood in July, Xue Hantao buried her uncle and aunt, then nervously made her way to the capital alone.

Her paternal uncle had a daughter who had married into a family in the capital years ago. Xue Hantao came to the capital to seek refuge with her cousin.

The Xue family was a humble household, and her cousin had married into an ordinary family as well. Before setting out, Xue Hantao had prepared herself for a difficult life under someone else's roof. But she never expected that when she saw her cousin again after all those years, she would have become a Consort Shu in the imperial palace, with the emperor's child in her womb.

In August, her cousin gave birth to the emperor's only son and was made a Noble Consort. Xue Hantao, too, received a marriage arrangement bestowed by the emperor.

In September, this young woman from a humble family, orphaned by the loss of both her parents, married Cui Bochong, the heir to the Duke of Dingguo, a man renowned for his peerless beauty. She became the heir's wife.

When asked what life was like after marrying up, Xue Hantao had only one thing to say: It was so exhausting!

But after sneaking a glance at her handsome husband beneath the candlelight, her heart turned sweet again.

Sweet romance, married first then fall in love, both leads are virgins.
