Jiang Si was born into a distinguished family, raised in luxury, and mutually in love with the nobleman she'd been betrothed to since childhood. She was the envy of every young woman in the inner quarters.
She thought her life would be peaceful and smooth from beginning to end.
But on her wedding night, just as she happily climbed into the bridal sedan, someone knocked her unconscious and buried her alive.
She watched helplessly as her father turned against her, her elder half-sister took her place as the bride, and her stepmother schemed for her wealth. She also learned that the so-called nobleman she was to marry had been the mastermind behind the murder and robbery.
She never imagined that the one who gathered her remains would be her lifelong nemesis, the Seventh Prince, feared throughout the court and the land.
Seventh Prince Xiao Li was violent and cruel, a mad dog with no restraint.
Yet this madman had a memorial stele made for her as his deceased wife and kept incense burning for her in the ancestral hall.
On the first anniversary of her death, he raised an army in rebellion.
He took the heads of all four members of the Jiang family, including her betrothed,
then stood before her grave in blood-soaked clothes and killed himself.
Only then did she understand what Xiao Li had meant when he said, "I can't live without her."
Jiang Si, who had witnessed it all, was reborn on the night before her wedding.
In this new life, she could no longer let any of it happen.
Wearing her wedding dress, she ran out of the Jiang family home in a panic and ran straight into the Seventh Prince, Xiao Li.
She grabbed his hand and said:
"Xiao Li, marry me!"
The woman before him had suddenly changed her attitude toward him. Barefoot in her wedding dress, she had run right up to him.
Xiao Li remembered that only the night before, she had stabbed his shoulder with a dagger.
He seized her by the throat:
"Jiang Xiange! What trick are you trying to pull now?"
Jiang Si could barely breathe as he choked her. Summoning her last bit of strength, she dared him: "You... you wouldn't dare?"
His grip loosened. She dropped like an autumn leaf, gasping for breath. Through the heavy snow, the man said coldly:
"Tell the whole city: the Seventh Prince is getting married tonight."
P.S. The male lead is a lunatic with a twisted personality, but once he gets the reassurance he needs, he turns into a good dog.
