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

Uncle Xia began to enthusiastically strike up a conversation with Huo Shiqian.


As they chatted, Uncle Xia learned that Huo Shiqian had previously been part of the provincial city's military force and only recently been transferred to another unit.


After a moment's thought, Uncle Xia asked, "We have someone from our village named He Qing who's in the provincial city's military force. Mr. Huo, you served there before. Do you know him?"


A flicker passed through Huo Shiqian's eyes.


Originally, he only remembered the face, the person who often followed at the heels of his competitor Qiao Canmou. But after that incident occurred, he had looked into He Qing's specific circumstances.


"I've heard he's being considered for a promotion? Do you know anything about that?" Uncle Xia continued, seizing upon Huo Shiqian's acknowledgment.
