[Rebirth and Revenge + Face-Slapping Scum + Household Intrigue] I was the legitimate daughter of the General’s Manor. On the eve of my engagement to the heir, I was abducted in the streets.
When I was found, my reputation was in ruins. The heir had already broken off the engagement, handing the engagement jade pendant to my cousin.
Just as I was plunged into despair, Little Marquis He of the He family, He Lanci, unexpectedly proposed marriage to me in public with great fanfare, claiming he had admired me for years! Flustered and moved, I hastily married into the Marquis’ Mansion with a generous dowry.
After the marriage, the Little Marquis doted on me and treated me with tenderness.
When I was eight months pregnant, however, I accidentally overheard him talking to someone else: “The Little Marquis is truly resourceful. The Prince’s Mansion would never have married a woman with a ruined reputation. Only with Xia Jianxi’s reputation and innocence destroyed could Sister Yu Ruo marry into the Prince’s Mansion safely!” “Now that Yu Ruo has successfully married into the Prince’s Mansion, why must the Little Marquis continue to wrong himself by being married to this ruined woman?” He Lanci’s icy voice suddenly rang out: “Her maternal family is as rich as a nation. The dowry she brought is enough to fill the deficit of the Marquis’ Mansion. Even so, her entire family has to be grateful. If not for me, would she even be alive?” “Then, what about the bastard in her belly? Does the Marquis truly intend to let that bastard be born?” “What a joke. How could the noble household of my He family tolerate such filthy blood! It’s just a bastard. Bury it somewhere.” The shock sent me into premature labor. I fought to give birth to my child, only for He Lanci to crush its skull on the spot.
I was buried alive in the cellar, dying with a grievance that would not rest.
When I opened my eyes again, I had been reborn, returning to the day I was kidnapped by bandits and my reputation was destroyed.
