————This Novel's Synopsis————

At the age of six, Jiang Ciying was sold by human traffickers to the Xie Residence, becoming a personal maid prepared by the Xie family's step-madam for her daughter. When she was fourteen, the young lady suddenly passed away from a severe illness. Unable to bear the blow, the Xie family's step-madam fell ill from grief and mistakenly identified Jiang Ciying as her own daughter.

A fake young lady appeared in the prominent household. The Xie family head, with a wave of his hand, allowed Jiang Ciying to enter the academy with the Xie family's children to study poetry and literature. Except for the Xie Madam, the rest of the Xie family were indifferent to her. Even though her status in the residence was awkward, it was much better than her previous life as a servant.

If only Jiang Ciying had not developed the foolish desire to fall in love with Xie Huaijin, the eldest legitimate son of the Xie family.

One day, by accident, the young girl's secret feelings written on a poetry slip were revealed. While gravely ill, Madam Xie forced them into an engagement using her impending death, thus making the brilliant, dignified, and noble Xie Huaijin, a scholar with boundless prospects, her husband.

After marriage, the two treated each other with respect, like honored guests. Jiang Ciying could not find a single fault with Xie Huaijin, yet she also couldn't feel an ounce of his concern.

One day, when she saw Xie Huaijin and Miss Su laughing together from afar, she suddenly remembered the rumors circulating in the capital all these years. Whenever people's scornful gazes passed over her, they would always say that Xie Huaijin and Su Xuerou were the perfect match.

And she was the villain who broke up a fated couple, forcefully interfering under the guise of filial piety.

She no longer wanted to be the villain.

The next day, she left a letter of divorce and went to Jiangnan, which was mentioned in the young lady's letter.

Xie Huaijin was the eldest legitimate son of a century-old aristocratic family. He was brilliant, cold, and noble, flawless like white jade throughout his life, except for a slight blemish in his marriage.

Others told him multiple times that since his stepmother was gone, this absurd marriage could naturally be annulled. He would always just give a faint glance. When his friend asked in surprise if he had truly fallen in love with that servant, he coldly replied, "It's merely a matter of marriage, arranged by my parents and matchmakers."

——Until he saw the letter of divorce on the table.

His friend picked it up with a smile and flicked it, saying, "At least she knows her place."

But they didn't see Xie Huaijin behind him, staring intently at the letter of divorce, his knuckles white, his body radiating coldness, like snow rustling down from a branch.

Later, the Eldest Young Master Xie, whose self-restraint and etiquette were praised by the world, caught his wife who had fled to Jiangnan.

In the cramped room, with dim light, he slowly clasped his wife's trembling soft hand, his voice cold and clear, "Madam, it's time to go home."
