Jiang Xinyi is the true daughter of the Marquis of Yongning’s household, who was lost and raised elsewhere.
Who could have imagined that on her very first day back, her brother would slap her to the ground just because she couldn’t answer one of her fake sister Jiang Baozhu’s questions? “Jiang Baozhu will always be my only sister!”
Her parents also made their position clear: “Baozhu is our only daughter.”
Desperate to win over the household, Jiang Xinyi tried with all her might to please them.
Then Jiang Baozhu falsely accused her, and she was locked in a woodshed for three days and nights, freezing, with no one willing to clear her name.
At last, she came to her senses.
At the betrothal banquet, she decided not to choose Gu Changqing, who had once claimed to love her but only had eyes and a heart for Jiang Baozhu.
But the day after the banquet, Gu Changqing came to her with red-rimmed eyes. “Xinyi, I was wrong. You said you loved me, so you can’t leave me.”
Even her brother, who had always looked down on her, was full of regret. “Xinyi, can you forgive your brother for all the foolish things he did?”
Her parents came to her too, supporting each other. “We were wrong before. Please forgive us.”
Too late!
Jiang Xinyi unceremoniously shoved them all out, then turned to the dignified man in the wheelchair. “I chose the wrong person at the betrothal banquet. Your Highness needn’t take it to heart.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, he pulled her into his arms and held her fast.
“Since you chose me at the betrothal banquet, you’ll never escape my grasp for the rest of your life.”
