Chapter 1: Died Unjustly
Chapter 1: Died Unjustly
Su Jinxiu, the legitimate daughter of a marquis, was pampered and spoiled from a young age. She was beautiful, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, and skin as white as snow; every smile and frown was captivating. Her talents were also outstanding; she was proficient in the arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and could compose poems and songs with ease.
In Su Jinxiu's heart, love was beautiful and sacred. She loved Gu Yu wholeheartedly, that elegant and talented man. Gu Yu was the son of a high-ranking official in the court. He met Su Jinxiu at a poetry gathering, and the two fell in love at first sight, thus beginning their passionate romance.
However, Su Jinxiu never expected that Gu Yu and her half-sister Su Yue had been in cahoots all along. Su Yue was pretty, but extremely cunning. She was jealous of Su Jinxiu's status as the legitimate daughter and everything she possessed, and longed to replace Su Jinxiu. To achieve this goal, she did not hesitate to join forces with Gu Yu to frame Su Jinxiu.
Under Gu Yu and Su Yue's meticulous planning, Su Jinxiu was gradually driven into a desperate situation. First, they fabricated evidence of Su Jinxiu's affair with an outsider, then they spread rumors within the family, falsely accusing her of various crimes. Su Jinxiu vehemently defended herself, but no one believed her. Incited by Gu Yu and Su Yue, her family members gradually lost trust in her.
"Su Jinxiu, you shameless woman!" The old lady of the Marquis's mansion glared at her, her eyes filled with disappointment.
"Grandmother, I didn't! I've been framed!" Su Jinxiu cried, pleading with the old lady to believe her.
"Hmph, the evidence is conclusive, and you still dare to argue!" The old lady flicked her sleeve and stopped looking at her.
Su Jinxiu looked at her relatives around her in despair; they were all filled with disgust and accusation towards her. Her father, the Marquis of the Marquis's Mansion, also looked at her with heartache, shaking his head and sighing.
"Jinxiu, you have disappointed your father greatly."
Su Jinxiu felt as if her heart was being torn apart. She couldn't understand why things had turned out this way. Gu Yu, whom she deeply loved, was now standing beside Su Yue, coldly watching her.
"Su Jinxiu, do you really think I love you? You're nothing but a pawn in my game." Gu Yu's words were like a sharp blade, piercing Su Jinxiu's heart.
Su Jinxiu died in despair and resentment. She lay on the cold ground, her eyes wide open, filled with bitterness and hatred.
She cried. She finally broke down. She never imagined that her sincere feelings would end like this. She hated Gu Yu's ruthlessness, hated Su Yue's treachery, and hated her own foolishness even more.
In her final moments, Su Jinxiu secretly vowed that if there were an afterlife, she would make them pay a terrible price!
Meanwhile, Su Yue and Gu Yu were celebrating their victory with great pride.
"Haha, that idiot is finally dead." Su Yue laughed extremely arrogantly.
"From now on, this manor will be ours." Gu Yu's eyes were filled with greed.
They thought everything was under their control, unaware that the gears of fate had already begun to turn, and a stunning reversal was about to unfold...
After Su Jinxiu passed away, her soul did not dissipate. Her resentment was too strong to enter the cycle of reincarnation.
Her soul seemed to float in the air, looking at her tragic end, her heart filled with resentment: "If there is an afterlife, I will make you pay a thousand times the price!"
Finally, guided by a mysterious force, Su Jinxiu's soul returned to the past.
