[She follows her mother into a new marriage + clear-headed heroine + never looks back + both leads reborn + contrasting couple + male lead falls for her on his own + beloved by all, lighthearted]
In her previous life,
Shen Nianli gave her heart and soul to the Shen family, exhausting herself to the very last drop.
Yet she ended up being forced around by her father and brothers, exiled in her younger sister's place, and stripped even of her identity.
Forced to swallow a deadly poison, she knew she had little time left. She went mad and set a fire that consumed every ungrateful wretch, making sure they all died with her!
When reborn and given a chance to choose again,
her younger sister, Shen Yingying, acted completely out of character, crying and making a fuss about staying with their father and brothers to "fulfill her filial duty."
Shen Nianli sneered.
Without a moment's hesitation, she chose to follow her mother into a new marriage and enter the Ding'an Marquis household, said to "eat people alive without spitting out the bones."
She wanted to see whether the Shen family could rise to greatness without her.
But who could have guessed...
How could the Marquis's household be so different from what she expected?
The second brother of the household, rumored to be cold-blooded and violent, actually scoured the world for rare treasures just to make her smile?
The capital's number-one wastrel, her third brother, transformed overnight for her, taking command of the army and standing guard by her side with his sword?
Even her fourth brother, who had been a fool for years, studied hard and passed the civil service examinations, rising to the imperial palace to win her a noble title with his top-scholar honors?
The father and brothers of the Shen family, who once discarded her like trash, saw her become the darling of the Marquis's household and bitterly wept with regret, repeatedly kneeling and begging her to return.
But now, if they wanted to lay a hand on her,
they would have to get past her new family of "madmen" first.
What surprised her most
was that the powerful, ruthless chief grand secretary was quietly closing in...
In public, he was a cold official who dealt out life and death with decisive ruthlessness.
In private, he pinned her against a wall, his breath hot and his gaze tender, tempting her to lose herself.
"A Li, would you let yourself fall for me?"
This is mindless writing that defies common sense and logic.
This is so good! It's unlike any other similar novel. The female lead is really pitiful at the beginning, but I hope she gets better later on. Author, please keep updating! I can't get enough! Sisters, everyone come and read it!
