The people of Dafang village all say, the personality of the Lian family’s eldest daughter changed dramatically after her engagement was cancelled by her fiance’s family. She became extremely forceful and unreasonable.

After hearing this, Lian Fangzhou secretly thought: Forceful? My parents are dead, my little brothers and sister are still young, with no one lending a helping hand, there are too many people looking to bully us showing up at my door! There’s still the most shameless pair of uncle and aunt eyeing our few acres of land, and even scheming to sell me off as a concubine! Treating my siblings as servants at their beck and call! If I was not forceful, how would we be able to live in peace? Don’t tell me that I should act like the previous Lian Fangzhou and die from extreme anger?

In order to quell this bunch of demons, break out a wide path to walk on, angelic faces are useless, only the tricks used by malevolent spirits are the way to go!

Chu Ruoyan, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Chu's household, saw her betrothed's family perish in battle—all except her fiancé, who survived but was left crippled.

Everyone assumed the engagement would be called off, yet the Chu family's heiress proceeded with the wedding as scheduled, uttering just two words: "I consent."

No one knew Chu Ruoyan had suffered a nightmare.

In the dream, she broke off her engagement with Yan Zheng. Three years later, while being courted by the heir of Pingjing Marquisate, rebel forces stormed the capital.

The city became a blood-soaked hellscape. Atop the walls stood the rebel leader—none other than Yan Zheng, who had just been appointed Chief Grand Councilor!

He beheaded her prospective groom, slaughtered the entire Pingjing Marquisate household, then subjected her pleading father to relentless humiliation until the old man leaped to his death from the city walls.

Upon waking, Chu Ruoyan made two immediate decisions:

Marry him. Then kill him.

Fate proved unpredictable. While the second resolution remained unfulfilled, she somehow became the most revered woman in the realm.

Xu Qiu traveled to the body of a tragic son-in-law.

His wife was missing, his aunt despised him, his mother-in-law spitted on him, and even dogs shook their heads when they saw him.

But from now on, they could all hear Xu Qiu's inner voice.

[Qin Jianjia, a nominal wife, a female general of the dynasty, but unfortunately she was dismissed soon and ended up being beheaded]

Qin Jianjia, upon hearing this, stared at her husband Xu Qiu.

[Qin Yumo, my wife's younger sister, was cheated of money and sex soon, and finally committed suicide because of humiliation due to her family's involvement.]

After hearing this, Qin Yumo dropped the osmanthus cake in his hand, his face full of astonishment.

[My mother-in-law was framed and slandered, her reputation was greatly damaged, and she died by hitting the wall to prove her innocence. She was really a family of loyal heroes, and the whole family was well-organized]

My mother-in-law froze in place.

...

Many years later.

The Sixth Princess An Lan, "Even if he is a son-in-law, the one I choose is mine!"

Crescent Pavilion Master You Qin Hyun-ya: "I have planned to give up my throne to him. I am willing to assist him. He is my hope."

Qin Jianjia: "Ah... then who am I?"

Soon, Xu Qiu suddenly realized that he, who was originally despised by dogs, suddenly became so popular. This plot seems to be wrong?

[Slow-paced, growing male protagonist]

Yang Chen was laid off, and was about to take the compensation and leave, when the system suddenly came!

[Ding! Mission target found, system activated! ]

Target favorability +1%, daily salary +10,000!

Full value 100%, one million deposited into your account every day!

There are also hidden rewards such as luxury cars, skills, god-level physique, etc.!

Looking at the cold and beautiful female CEO in front of him, Yang Chen silently raised the corner of his mouth.

A few years later, when everyone was laughing at him for being a gigolo, he calmly checked his account balance.

"Excuse me, I'm going to buy an island."
