In my previous life, I was the one who cleaned up after my sick mother. I was also the one who saved a noble, and should have been the one to make a good match with him.
But I was also the one who went without food and warm clothes, and the one bullied by my own siblings.
My whole family favored the others so much that my mother drugged me and sent me to the Duke's manor, where I was made the heir's concubine to bear him an heir in my sister's place. Unable to endure the humiliation, I hanged myself.
Reborn, I no longer cared who wanted to uphold chastity or who wanted to obey the rules of filial piety and propriety.
There is no shame or honor in doing what it takes to survive. Even a woman brought in to bear an heir can take her place in the household.
When I first entered the manor, the abstinent heir kept his distance. “You can stay and serve me, but don't get any ideas.”
But when I had accomplished my goal and was ready to leave, his eyes reddened and his voice turned hoarse. “Luo Qingyan, it's my turn to take care of you now. You're not allowed to leave.”
