Reborn as a Concubine: A Battle of Gold and Jade

Behind the high walls of the great household, Xu Xiaoxi deeply felt how hard it was to be a concubine-born daughter. She had a young lady’s body but a servant’s fate. If she did well, her legitimate younger sister saw her as a thorn in her side. If she did poorly, her concubine-born younger sister took her for an easy target. Even after she married, all that talk of a devoted couple and a peaceful home was a lie. In her previous life, her husband favored his concubine and neglected his wife. During their three years of marriage, she endured endless coldness. No matter how broad-minded she was, she could never earn the devotion of a loving couple, and in the end, she died along with her unborn child in a tragic conclusion. In this life, she did everything she could to find a different match and choose a better husband. But her husband was cold, the concubine was domineering, and none of the children were her own. Friendships could fall apart in an instant. By day she had to scheme carefully, and by night she had to work hard. Life as a second wife was one long misery. Then one day, news arrived that her husband had “killed his elder brother, seized the throne, and succeeded in his rebellion.” Only then did Xu Xiaoxi realize that she had returned to her childhood. She absolutely could not keep meekly enduring others’ abuse. Even as a second wife, she was still the legitimate wife. No one could stand in the way of her path to running the household! In a nutshell: This is a one-on-one romance between a fake white lotus and a supposedly aloof man. Their love grows over time until they’re sickeningly sweet together.
