I was the famous beauty for miles around.

Oval face, shapely figure, hardworking.

Suitors came asking for my hand from one end of the village to the other.

He was the only scholar in the several villages near us, with clean, handsome features, a gentle way of speaking, and a scholarly air no one else had.

My parents said he had a bright future ahead of him. If I married him, maybe I’d even end up a government official’s wife someday.

They were only half right.

Shen Jingzhi did indeed earn an excellent ranking later on.

But he was also unexpectedly taken back by the General’s Mansion and, in the blink of an eye, turned into a young master from a powerful family.

He didn’t want anything to do with his past anymore.

Neither I nor my mother-in-law was wanted anymore.
