In order to marry a good husband, Liu Yuru had been a model lady for 15 years; but on the eve of her engagement, she was forced to marry Gu Jiusi, a well-known playboy from Yangzhou.... more>>

To marry such a person was to ruin one’s life.

Especially because after marriage, she learned that this person was also forced to marry her.

Liu Yuru was heartbroken, and after locking herself in the room for three days, she came to a realization.

Marrying such a dandy, why should she remain a perfect young lady?

So on the third day of marriage, the famously gentle lady shook her hands, carried a knife, and used all her courage to go to the brothel.

To the drunken Gu Jiusi, she said –

Get up!

After that, Gu Jiusi’s life was full of ups and downs.

Whether he was a miserable dandy or a great official, this woman stood beside him.

She supported him with her weak and delicate body, and told him, “get up.”

So even if he was cut to pieces, he would struggle from the mud, grit his teeth, carry her on his back, and walk through this life.

For the first 15 years of Liu Yuru’s life, she thought she was living only to find a good man.

It wasn’t until she met Gu Jiusi that she understood that a good man would help you realize that you live only for yourself.

— May this body of flesh and blood shield her from the wind and rain, protect her dress from dust, and protect her temples from frost. <<less

Before Luo Wanqing was nineteen, she was well-known as a noble daughter from a medical family in Jiangnan. She had a gentle and courteous fiancee, Jiang Shaoyan, and generous and loving parents. At first glance, her life would be smooth sailing till the end.... more>>

After she turned nineteen, soldiers broke into her house, killed all the men in the family, and exiled the women. She was painfully waiting for her only hope in prison, expecting Jiang Shaoyan to redress the injustice and save her from misery. Yet all she received was a dagger and a bottle of poison. Jiang Shaoyan told her it was a long road to the border and asked her to stay chaste for him. So she took the dagger and returned.

For revenge, she disfigured her face, took the place of a convicted prisoner, fought bloody battles on her way, and entered the Inspection Department as a pardoned prisoner. On the day she met her superior, the news came that her substitute 'Luo Wanqing' had died unexpectedly in exile. That night, the third prince, Jiang Shaoyan, who had returned from the countryside, set up a memorial tablet for his deceased wife in his mansion.

Luo Wanqing, covered in blood, was kneeling in the courtyard when she heard the god-like Inspector's cold voice. "Once you walk through the door of my Inspection Department, you belong to me, Xie Heng. State your name."

Luo Wanqing tightened her blood-covered hands, grasped the token on the ground, and raised her clear and bright eyes.

"Your servant, Liu Xiniang."

#For other people, he was a demon, but for me, he was a deity. "

#I was on a boat sailing on the clear stream, but in the blink of an eye, I accidentally got lost in turbulent waves# <<less

Li Rong married Pei Wenxuan at the age of 18.... more>>

Li Rong used Pei Wenxuan’s family background to avoid disaster, and Pei Wenxuan used Li Rong’s identity as Princess to establish himself.

They married for political reasons, without the slightest bit of affection.

Later on, she lost herself in the midst of wine, song and dance. As for him, he had a home yet did not bother coming home because he already had someone in his heart…

Husband and wife for 30 years, yet nothing between them but power.

In the end, it was hardly surprising that someone turned them against each other, leading them to die under each other’s schemes.

However, when they woke up, they had actually returned to the year when they were 18 years old, returning to the most difficult time in their lives.

So Pei Wenxuan went to look for Li Rong.

“Does Your Highness feel that we should go through this marriage again?”

“Let’s do it…”

“Then this humble one must get rid of your ‘Guest Official’ first.”

“Do you think I’ll let your sweetheart off?!”

After a long wordless silence, Pei Wenxuan spoke again: “How about we bear with one another for the time being? In two years, when we each have power in our hands, you and I will divorce. From then on, if there are grievances, settle those grievances, if there are grudges, settle those grudges. What does the Princess think?”

Li Rong hesitated for a moment, and then said: “Fine, go ahead with it first…”

Later, Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong secured the power to control the Imperial Court. Seeing Li Rong write up the divorce letter at home, Pei Wenxuan looked left and right, considering the situation from all angles, then finally walked into the study. “The children are already this old, how about we keep living like this for a while?” <<less

She was an utterly ordinary woman.... more>>

From a family that favored sons over daughters, to a job with meager pay, and a husband who was taciturn.

She thought she would forever remain ordinary until one evening when her husband didn't come to pick her up.

Misfortune struck suddenly, and she began to live in darkness, fearing that someone might say she attended a party that night or that someone might mention she wore a dress that night.

She feared her husband accusing her of infidelity and her family condemning her as immoral.

Until everything became unbearable, her typically silent husband sat on the couch, finished his last cigarette, and looked at her crying in the corner, utterly broken.

"What have you done wrong?" he asked.

Then he took her hand, called the police, hunted down the culprit, and appealed. 

Using his remaining life and risking his life, he sought justice for her, sought fairness, and gave love.

The road is long, life has cliffs, but there is always an end to this despair.

[The story of a heroine who, after being hurt, stands up again with her husband's support, facing her original family, facing herself, learning love and life.]

PS:

1. The heroine is not a perfect victim; she starts off weak but gradually grows stronger.

2. Dark beginning, healing ending, complete HE (Happy Ending), overall tone of "though thousands may oppose, I'll go forward," so it won't be overly sweet or cheerful, but the ending won't be stifling.

3. Several hundred thousand words, not your typical romance.
