[Angst First, Then Satisfaction]
Qin Wan had been adored in the marquis's manor for fifteen years, until one day her father returned from the border with a young woman. He said she was the daughter of a deputy general who had entrusted her to him, and ordered everyone to treat her like family.
From then on, Qin Wan's lively, spirited nature was called unruly, and her quick tongue was branded arrogant and overbearing!
Her parents' affection went to Su Yan'er. Just because Su Yan'er complained, her eldest brother slapped Qin Wan in public, her second brother spoke cruelly to her, and her twin third brother never gave her a kind look.
At the empress's birthday banquet, Su Yan'er accidentally fell into the water. These so-called family members said nothing but how pitiful Yan'er was. They wouldn't even listen to Qin Wan's side of the story.
The empress sent her to Leishan Temple to become a nun for two whole years, and her family never once asked after her.
Just as Qin Wan looked at the ruler marks covering her body and gave up hope, Heaven granted her another chance.
This time, she finally understood what she'd done wrong: she'd been wrong to hold on to even a shred of hope for those so-called family members!
In this life, she knew exactly who in the marquis's manor deserved her sincerity, and who did not deserve forgiveness!
But somehow, in this life, they seemed to have come to their senses.
Her brothers knelt before her one after another, crying and begging, "Wan'er, we were wrong. Please forgive your brothers!"
Her father, whose every thought had been consumed by his old friend's daughter Su Yan'er, walked unsteadily up to her. "Wan'er, I was blind. Please forgive your father just this once!"
But she turned away without a trace of reluctance and threw herself into the arms of the man whose eyes held only her.
