Pian Fangfang

Meng Qianqian, at the age of 15, married into the Lu Family to bring joy to the elderly matriarch.

On the wedding night, urgent news arrived from the border that her husband had been commanded to go to war. Six months later, he tragically died at the hands of Beiliang soldiers.

Five years later, the husband who had been presumed dead returned, and by his side was an ethereal mute woman named Wan'er.

Lu Lingxiao said that Wan'er was the descendant of a loyal and righteous family, entirely different from her—a merchant girl reeking of copper coins. He claimed Wan'er was a true paragon of noble character.

Lu Lingxiao also said that Wan'er was an eagle soaring in the heavens, while someone like her was nothing more than a fragile flower, unworthy of comparison.

It was not until the land was broken, the city walls fell, and she wielded a Red Tassel Spear to crush countless soldiers that Lu Lingxiao realized he had misjudged her.

She was not a delicate flower confined within the depths of the mansion; she was the fiercest west wind of Yumen Pass.

Crowned by the Treacherous Big Shot

Faced with the impassive Meng Qianqian, Tao Shiyu felt her head throb.


Lowering her head, she took a deep breath, mustering her courage: "Even if you don't want to hear this, I still need to say it. To be honest, the reason I've humbled myself this much is that I need your help. The Xun Family has politely rejected the marriage proposal between me and Chen Long, saying that now that Chen Long is your guard, they can no longer decide his affairs. Only if you approve can the marriage proceed. If I don't get your permission, this marriage will fall apart!"


Oh, so the Xun Family is pushing the responsibility onto her?


Tao Shiyu choked on a sob and said, "I don't understand. It was all fine at first. The Xun Family were the ones who came to propose the marriage. Why have they made it so difficult for me now?"
