Xue Ning's entire family died in battle. She grew up in the Marquis of Xuanyi's household and deeply adored Su Zhan, the heir who had grown up with her since childhood. With a cup of spring wine laced with something extra, she fulfilled her wish and became his wife. Later, Su Zhan rose to become the all-powerful Grand Secretary. The two of them appeared respectful and harmonious, and were once considered one of the rare love stories in the capital. Everyone said that she, an orphaned girl, was blessed to marry such a man. Only she knew how many lonely, silent nights she endured alone. He had a "white moonlight" he loved but could never obtain-and he had never loved her. Because she had once offered herself to him, he despised her. So he sent her away to an old country estate for five years. She sent letter after letter back to the capital, but none were ever answered. Helpless and alone, she was eventually burned alive in a fire set by others, dying with hatred in her heart. ... After being reborn, the first thing Xue Ning did was overturn the cup of spring wine that had originally been prepared for Su Zhan. Then, she carefully chose a fiancé for herself. At a family banquet, with relatives gathered, Xue Ning walked up to Su Zhan, her arm hooked around her fiancé's. "Grand Secretary, this is my fiancé. Please look after him in the future." The always cold and restrained Grand Secretary instead began to crumble, his eyes red: "Xue Ning... I was the one who knew you first!" *Original Translation* ©All Rights reserved

For three years, Gu Lianhua, the hidden heiress of China's second-wealthiest family, devoted her life to a man she believed was her destiny. Stripping away her noble identity, she worked tirelessly in cafés and as a delivery girl, enduring scorn from her boyfriend Zhao Rui's family. By day, she scrubbed floors; by night, she hid her genius in programming and stock trading, amassing a secret fortune meant as a gift for their future together. But love betrayed her. Zhao Rui took a mistress-Shen Meilin, an illegitimate child of a distant branch who falsely claimed to be the Gu family's beloved granddaughter. When Rui and his family chose Meilin over Lianhua, discarding her with cruelty and humiliation, Lianhua's fragile devotion shattered. What Rui did not know was that he had scorned the true Gu heiress. Behind her quiet endurance stood three fiercely protective brothers and a secret engagement to the heir of China's wealthiest Lee family. Lee Jianyu, broad-shouldered and powerful, had never forgotten the petite girl who defended him when he was a mocked, overweight teenager. He had waited years for her return-and now, he would burn the world to protect her. From ashes of love, flames of revenge will rise. Rui, Meilin, and all who scorned her will regret their cruelty, as Lianhua ascends not only as the Gu heiress but as a queen of her own making. At her side will stand Jianyu-the man who saw her when she was invisible, and loved her when the world turned away. This is a tale of betrayal, hidden identity, vengeance, and love reborn.

When the news of her marriage to the elegant and noble young master of the Pei family came out, everyone said they were a perfect match. But a perfect match is one thing, a marriage without love is like a pile of loose sand, sooner or later existing in name only.

Looking at Shan Yin, who feigned composure and poise, Pei Yunhe raised an eyebrow and made a note of it. - A month into their marriage, Shan Yin fell ill, and the Pei family went to great lengths to bring in renowned physicians from prestigious families.

From then on, the rumors were dispelled, and Shan Yin and Pei Yunhe became the model couple of Nan Qiao.
