Gu Yushi rose to fame at a young age, becoming the youngest top scholar in the imperial exams. He was favored by the Emperor and wielded immense power.
Everyone envied Feng Wenyu—after all, she was his wife of twelve years. In all those years, Gu Yushi never took a concubine. The household was hers alone.
But no one knew the truth.
In those twelve years, they had become strangers under the same roof.
When she longed for his company, he never had time.
When she was angry, he merely cast her a cold glance and said,
“Stop making a fuss.”
Feng Wenyu was slowly being driven to madness.
The day Gu Yushi learned that Feng Wenyu had been involved with an actor of lowly status, he was suddenly reborn—sent back twelve years to a time before they were married.
Proud and arrogant, Gu Yushi couldn’t understand how she could betray him—especially with someone so beneath her.
Determined to change the future and cut ties early, he brought their engagement token to the Feng household to break off the engagement.
He had imagined many reactions from her.
But he never expected her to agree so easily.
Gu Yushi: “She agreed?! Just like that?!”
—
Feng Wenyu found her fiancé… strange.
At the banquet, he ignored her completely.
He was no longer gentle or considerate.
When she heard he wanted to break off the engagement, she felt a flash of indignation—but deep down, she also felt an unexpected sense of relief.
So be it.
If they couldn’t even have a conversation now, why spend a lifetime together?
