Reborn: The White Lotus Wife Forces Her Husband to Go Straight

(I’m terrible at naming things. Read on and you’ll see.)

A deranged, devoted wolf of a deposed prince versus a drama-queen legitimate daughter

*

After being reborn, the first thing Tan Yuwang wanted to do was get married. Her target was the disgraced crown prince in the Cold Palace, who had been abused for ten years.

*

According to the rumors, he was solitary, aloof, and detached. He had endured ten years in darkness and suffered every torment, never once being loved or protected.

*

Tan Yuwang became his devoted wife, teaching him to calm his mind, saving his life, and showing him all the beautiful things the world had to offer.

*

Ye Niansi had never imagined that someone as lowly as him could be treated with such tenderness. Surrounded by the warmth Tan Yuwang gave him, he abandoned his schemes, withdrew from the treacherous palace, and no longer sought to join the struggle for the throne.

*

But one day, he discovered that it had all been a lie. The woman who had drawn him out of the darkness coldly turned a blade toward his throat.

*

It turned out she had never loved him at all. She had loved him only because she loved someone else.

*

One day, he easily claimed the supreme throne that countless people had fought tooth and nail to win. From his lofty seat, he looked down on all living things.

*

But she was no longer by his side. In truth, Tan Yuwang could have simply asked for his life. He had one to give, and he would have given it to her.

*

So why couldn’t she keep up the act of loving him?

*

“I even wanted to show off the scraps of affection you gave me. Why...”

“Ye Niansi, kill me, and forget me too.”
