The Country Life of a Village Girl

At their first meeting, Gu Mu saw through her disguise.

The girl had snowy skin and almond-shaped eyes, with her hair tied up in a man's style. Her coarse clothes could not hide her flawless beauty. When those brilliant eyes turned toward him

He twirled a golden wild chrysanthemum between his fingers and smiled. "So innocent. You deserve to be cherished like a little sister."

When he heard she had secretly accepted a marriage proposal, he crushed the pearl earrings he'd bought for her.

"Then what am I?" He pressed her against the wall, trapping her. "You got engaged without asking your older brother?"

The girl's deer-like eyes glistened with tears. She softly called, "Third Cousin..."

Her sweet, gentle voice melted his resolve. He rubbed the top of her head and sighed. "That hunter isn't good enough for you. Your older brother will find someone better."

.

She had been nothing more than a pawn in the hands of the powerful.

As lowly as dust, she did not even have the right to look up at the noble young ladies.

Until that rainy night

The third young master of the Jingwang Marquis Household had lost his memory. Gripping her sleeve, his beautiful features set in stubborn determination, he asked, "If you say you're my wife, why won't you sleep with me?"

Inside the gauzy bed curtains, he held her fast, leaving her nowhere to run. Her eyes reddened at the corners, and she called out in a trembling voice, "H-husband."

The most reckless and carefree young man in the capital eventually fell into the gentle trap she had woven.

After recovering his memories, Gu Mu looked at the residence, burned to the ground and left empty, and coughed up blood.

"Very good..." He stroked the broken jade hairpin pillow and laughed like a madman. "So it was all just a beautiful dream."

Later, everyone in the capital knew that the most arrogant and unruly Third Young Master of the Gu family was searching for someone like a madman.

Later

When she was forced to kneel before him, her once-gentle older brother stroked her neck with a smile.

"Little sister, do you still want an ordinary life?"

Golden chains clinked as he bent down to murmur in her ear:

"Since you lied to me..."

"You'll spend your whole life making it up to me."
