Concubine Favored Over Wife? I Refuse to Be the Lady of This Marquis House
Lin Yunwan, the legitimate daughter of the prestigious Lin family, married into the world of nobility as the wife of the heir, Lu Zhengliu, just as her family faced the loss of their noble title.
On their wedding day, her husband coldly declared, “Marrying you was never my wish,” and proceeded to neglect her for seven long years.
Throughout this time, Lin Yunwan clung to a sliver of hope for marital harmony, dedicating herself to raising the adopted son brought into the family from the clan.
It wasn’t until the adopted son achieved success that she found herself physically exhausted.
She thought her life was complete, fulfilled.
But on her deathbed, the adopted son revealed a bitter truth, “Mother? She is my mother! You are nothing but a cruel foster mother.”
Lu Zhengliu, with his lowly-born “cousin,” who was only fit to be a concubine, told her, “You’ve occupied the position of the main wife for twenty years. It’s time to return it to Bao’er.”
Lin Yunwan died of sheer anger.
Twenty years of devotion, handed over to someone else, even the child she raised wasn’t truly hers.
The bitterness of it all!
Reborn, she refused to let history repeat itself.
Those who dared to trample upon her and had their way, she vowed to make them bitterly regret their actions!
