The Concubine Is With Child

[She was the second young master's maid, but became the first young master's bedchamber attendant.]

Qing Huan thought she was the luckiest maid in the world. The second young master of the Duke's manor had taken a liking to her and promised to marry her in a bridal crown and robes.

But as soon as the scoundrel passed the imperial examinations, he married a noblewoman from a prestigious family instead, then shamelessly threatened to take Qing Huan as a concubine!

Qing Huan dried her tears and turned around to throw herself into the arms of the heir, a cold, handsome man of great power and status.

If she was destined to become a concubine anyway, she might as well choose the most powerful man of all!

Later, the scoundrel regretted everything. Weeping bitterly, he told her, "Qing Huan, I've realized that you were the one I truly loved all along. Just wait. I'll defeat my big brother and take you back!"

Qing Huan gave a cold laugh. "I appreciate the thought, but I'm a woman of noble status now. You, dear, are beneath me!"
