Reborn, She Refuses to Marry and Takes It Easy, While the Duke Panics

In her previous life, Gu Qingyi rose from a village woman to the wife of a duke, envied by all. She enjoyed a moment of glory and a lifetime of beauty, yet lived cautiously, as if walking on thin ice.

She thought that once her husband died and her son inherited the title, she would become the matriarch and finally live without worry. But the child she had raised from infancy and nurtured with all her heart turned out to be the son of a concubine.

To inherit the ducal title legitimately, her adopted son sent her to her death with a bowl of poison.

Reborn, Gu Qingyi wants only a simple, peaceful life. She wants nothing more to do with He Zhen.

All she wants is to find a husband with no parents or clan relatives above him, and no younger siblings or sisters-in-law below him, and live a quiet, uncomplicated life.

Yet in this life, He Zhen clings to her like a vengeful spirit, ruining her marriage prospects and using every means at his disposal to force her to marry him again.

Gu Qingyi grits her teeth. What’s so bad about walking the same road as in her previous life? At least she knows exactly which people are monsters in disguise and which are demons.

This time, she’ll raise a child who won’t turn against her, then lie flat and enjoy her old age.

But in this life, He Zhen seems like a different person. He takes no concubines and keeps no bedchamber maids. He stands up for her at every turn, always puts her first, and goes out of his way to treat her well.

Gu Qingyi: “...”

Could this dog of a man have gotten a new soul?
