Everyone in Jinling envied Wen Zhuqing for marrying such a good husband.
Cen Guiyuan, heir to the Duke of Dingguo, was as elegant as an orchid tree, with impeccable character and noble bearing. He had placed first in the imperial exams on his very first attempt, was the dream man of countless Jinling girls, and had fallen for her at first sight.
Wen Zhuqing thought she had hit the jackpot, too. She devoted herself wholeheartedly to managing the household and being a virtuous wife.
Her mother-in-law loved imposing rules, and her sister-in-law made things difficult for her at every turn. Wen Zhuqing had no choice but to endure it all and keep out of their way.
Her husband wanted to bring his former fiancee, whose engagement he had broken, into their home as a concubine. Wen Zhuqing quietly accepted that, too.
He told her, "Zhuqing, I only pity her."
It wasn't until a banquet at their home, when she and the other woman both fell into the water, that Wen Zhuqing finally understood. Cen Guiyuan unhesitatingly rescued Zhai Yuanzhi, who had fallen farther away, and carefully wrapped his cloak around the woman's soaked dress, anxious to protect the reputation of his beloved concubine. He never even glanced in Wen Zhuqing's direction.
Only then did Wen Zhuqing realize that she was the one to be pitied.
A groveling-after-the-breakup story, with the second male lead ending up with the heroine.
New story coming soon, please add it to your reading list!

The Real Heiress Comes Down the Mountain [Historical to Modern]
Mu Ci never expected that a trip down the mountain would take her a thousand years into the future.
The good news: in this life, she's the daughter of a wealthy family.
The bad news: they only just recognized her as their own.
Meanwhile, Mu Linlang, who grew up cherished by the Mu family, is the one who really seems like part of their family.
The Mu family initially thought it wouldn't matter if Mu Ci wasn't exceptional. They could just keep her around as a freeloader.
But gradually, they realized that the daughter they'd brought back from a remote backwater was actually a true master.
Reading faces, fortune-telling, exorcising evil, catching ghosts: there was nothing she couldn't do.
Theme: You can't find true love by endlessly giving in.
The heroine is so miserable, her ex-husband is such a scumbag, and the dog emperor doesn't look like a good guy.
When I saw this chapter, I noticed that the emperor's name was in the introduction to the male protagonist... Could it be that the heroine ended up finding an emperor with a harem and a beloved concubine? It was so amazing that her ex-husband stopped taking concubines and turned around and found someone with a harem [Joker]
A wife is worse than a concubine, a concubine is worse than a thief, and a thief is worse than not being able to steal. . . .
Zhuqing finally made up his mind, it's not easy 🥺
Why is the heroine so unlucky? The current one is a scumbag, and the next one is an emperor who looks like he will kick the heroine away when he gets tired of it...
Curious, does the Dog Emperor truly love his former Concubine Liu? Compared with the heroine?
I burst out laughing [crying with laughter] The emperor's sarcasm was really spot on 😏 🧋
"Glaring at his sister-in-law, "Catch a big bug for the author~ She must be my sister-in-law, right?
I really wish it could be stretched a little more, preferably with an if line 🥺🥺🥺
I really like this story, but the ending is a bit unsatisfying. The tension between the male and female protagonists is okay. Modo Modo 😳
