My Chancellor Father Humiliated Me, but the Powerful Minister Welcomed Me Home in a Grand Sedan

Everyone in the capital knew that the good-for-nothing son of a marquis's household concubine was going to marry the chancellor's daughter, who had been raised outside the household since childhood and had a bad reputation.

Everyone mocked them: "A good-for-nothing and a jinx, made for each other."

That night, Qin Tianmo, Cheng Baozhu's former brother-in-law from her previous life, blocked her in front of the Chancellor's residence.

His gaze was not as respectful as it had been in her previous life. His dark, calculating eyes were filled with possessiveness. "Zhu Zhu, everyone says we're made for each other. If you don't marry me, it would defy all reason."

Cheng Baozhu took two steps back. "If I marry you, may heaven strike me down!"

Having lived a new life, she naturally knew that this young man would one day rise to the highest ranks of the court and wield power over the whole realm.

She simply wanted nothing more to do with the marquis's household.

On her wedding night, Cheng Baozhu listened to the thunder and lightning outside, her face full of guilt.

Could it be that Heaven had really heard what she said?

Qin Tianmo smiled and drew her into his arms. "Don't be afraid, my dear. Even if Heaven strikes us, I'll make sure it strikes me and not you."

The people of the capital soon noticed.

Ever since the good-for-nothing son of the marquis's household concubine married the chancellor's jinx of a daughter, his fortunes had soared. He passed the imperial examinations, entered government service, and everything went smoothly.

Qin Tianmo looked down on the crowd. "Who says my wife is a jinx? My wife is a lucky star sent from Heaven!"
