Three Years as a Slave, and Now the Entire General's Household Regrets It

Pei Yin spent twelve years as the Sheng family’s eldest legitimate daughter. When the real heiress returned, Pei Yin was sent to the imperial singing and dancing academy as punishment. After three years as a slave, the people from the General’s Mansion finally came to fetch her. But she no longer wanted this family. She turned and left the General’s Mansion without hesitation. The Sheng family scoffed. “Without the Sheng family, she’s nothing but a criminal slave. After she’s suffered enough, she’ll come crawling back.” Not long after, a genius doctor appeared in the capital, earning everyone’s admiration. She could revive the dead and restore flesh to bare bones, but she had one rule: she wouldn’t treat anyone from the Sheng family. Then a wealthy merchant rose to fame, calculating every move and breathing life into half a street that had been on the verge of collapse. But none of the shops welcomed the Sheng family. Even the increasingly celebrated Imperial Preceptor at court declared that no one from the Sheng family would be accepted as a disciple. When the Sheng family learned that all these people were Pei Yin, they began to regret everything. They came to her every day, trying different ways to beg for forgiveness, and blamed her for not telling them who she was sooner. Pei Yin said, “You promised that after I served as a slave for three years, we would have nothing more to do with each other.” Only then did the Sheng family realize they had truly lost Pei Yin forever.
