Qian Jiaoniang, a peasant girl who endured nine bitter years during wartime, learns that her husband, Xing Muzheng, has returned triumphant from the battlefield, shedding his armor and returning home in glory as a Marquis.
She eagerly prepares herself to be the honored Madam of the Marquis household—only to discover that her husband has brought back a refined young lady he intends to marry as a equal-wife.
Qian Jiaoniang thought, Fine, so be it! After all, she’s illiterate and not worthy in his eyes. As long as she and her son can eat and live well, she won’t fight it.
But at that moment, Xing Muzheng suddenly goes…. mad?
The cold, repressed male lead turns into a lovesick, obsessive man—with a serious possessive streak.
Reading Notes:
- The male lead goes insane early on, but recovers quickly.
- Husband acts like a jerk for a moment of satisfaction—then enters the “chasing wife in crematorium” phase.
