After a while, the two had reached the point of secretly pledging their lives to each other.
Lu Jun relentlessly pursued the original owner of the body, even using his family's influence to create opportunities for them to meet by chance.
The brilliant strategist and the brilliant writer by his side repeatedly offered their advice, while he also showed off his limited literary talent.
It was another classic hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress story.
Finally, he even staged a self-inflicted injury ruse.
Want to win the heart of a beauty.
Unfortunately, the original owner already had someone in his heart, and only had eyes for Sun Xiucai, so let him give up on that idea.
Lu Jun's heart was shattered.
He was angry and resentful, but he really liked it...
The colder the other person was to him, the more he felt an intense, itch-like desire to escape...
He was determined to have her!
Love is possession!!
The Lu family made a high-profile marriage proposal.
After consulting with the original owner of the body, Yu's father and mother firmly refused.
They only have this one precious daughter. Even though the Lu family is powerful and influential, the Yu family is not without powerful backers.
There's no reason to sacrifice a daughter's happiness just to avoid offending the Lu family.

She became indifferent to Sun Xiucai but developed feelings for Lu Jun.
Lu Jun's moment of glory has arrived; the change in the beauty's attitude towards him makes him feel elated.
I feel like I've become a winner in life.
A few days ago, he visited his grandmother, Cao Xiangu, who was practicing Buddhism in the deep mountains.
He learned that the woman he had his eye on was destined to marry Sun Xiucai.
He cried like a bullied child in front of his grandmother, threatening to kill himself.
"Waaaaah... It's not fair! Why, why?! How can a pheasant be worthy of a phoenix? How are they even a match? How is this a preordained marriage? What was God thinking?... If I can't marry Miss Yu, I won't live anymore..."
Cao Xiangu was almost driven to the brink of collapse by her good-for-nothing grandson.
Thinking about it carefully, my grandson is right. How can a pheasant be paired with a phoenix?
So be it! Those who cultivate themselves are inherently defying the will of Heaven.
For the sake of my grandson's happiness, what's wrong with sacrificing half of my cultivation to defy fate and change their destiny?
In the end, Cao Xiangu agreed to help her grandson get married.
