Demon Painting

In her past life, Xia Chu lost her virginity before marriage and was scorned by her family as a wanton woman, forced to marry an old widower with a limp. Her aunt and mother died one after another because of her. Fleeing alone to the south to work, she suffered a hard life and eventually died tragically at the hands of a scoundrel. 
Reborn, she is determined to protect those who love her and those she loves, to rewrite destiny. Those who framed her, she will make them suffer the consequences; those who forced her, she will make them kneel and beg for mercy; and those who killed her, she will make them wish they were dead!
By the way, that tall, stoic man with good looks, loyalty, and skills, I might as well marry you since you’ve got it all.

After Marrying the Officer

"People who are upright are not afraid of oblique shadows, even if others point fingers," Xia Chuyi said indifferently. "Besides, by calling off the marriage, am I not doing He Qing and Xia Lan a favor?"


Upon hearing this, Mother Xia broke down completely and wept.


"Anyway, it's settled. I will go to the county town tomorrow for some business, I'm heading back to my room now," Xia Chuyi explained, then strode back to the attic.


As soon as she returned to the attic, she bolted the door and dived into the secret space.


The fresh air in the space instantly made her feel better.


As the saying goes, with loss comes gain. She probably was destined to be without kin, yet she had her own unique opportunities.


She would not force what couldn't be compelled.


Since time moved slower in the space, she busied herself inside sewing a backpack based on a future design, which she would use the next day, and then leafed through the "Heavenly Book" for a while before exiting the area to rest.
