Never to Find Her Again

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Since childhood, I had known that I was destined to become the wife of the Xie family’s third son.

Xie Shen Zhi was devoted to Buddhism, so while other girls flew kites and played on swings, I spent my days in the Buddhist hall chanting scriptures.

Xie Shen Zhi practiced martial arts and admired women with steadfast, resilient spirits, so I learned to ride horses for him. Even when I fell and broke my leg, I didn’t shed a single tear.

I gave everything I had to become the kind of woman he liked.

Yet, he fell in love with someone entirely different from me.

The engagement could not be annulled, so I ended up marrying his elder brother, Xie Wang Zhi, who was renowned for his ruthlessness.

After the wedding, Xie Wang Zhi was just as the rumors described—indifferent to women.

Only once, when Xie Shen Zhi, in a drunken stupor, blocked my door, Xie Wang Zhi shielded me behind him and cast an indifferent glance at his younger brother before speaking coldly:

“She is now the Eldest Madam of the Xie family. What business do you have seeking out your sister-in-law in the middle of the night?”

Su Mu Yun is in love with her fiance, Xie Shen Zhi but he falls in love with another woman from different social status and background. As the marriage was profitable for both families, the FL decided to marry his elder brother, Xie Wang Zhi instead.

I loved the subtle romance and compatibility between Su Mu Yun and Xie Wang Zhi. Both of them were bound by their duties but that didn't stop them from doing what they wanted. An immature man like Xie Shen Zhi can screw off elsewhere🙄

For a... more>> short story, I wanted it to continue longer. Would definitely recommend. <<less

It’s a love after marriage story.

What I enjoyed about this story is the FL’s calm demeanour. When her love for the ex fell through, she analysed the situation and her own heart and knew it was not meant to be.

Later on when she discusses this with the ML, I love her statement when she says:

"What I fell in love with, perhaps, was not Xie Shen Zhi (the ex) himself, but the time and energy I poured into chasing him. All these wasted years were nothing more than my own self-inflicted... more>> torment."

What a strong FL. I love her. Would read a whole novel about her. <<less

Hhhhhhhh..... the best story is always the shortest, aren't they? Well, not always but you know what I mean.

I at least want to see more dog food from the main couple, how could you do this to me 😫

Overall, no regret. Still love the story, suited for a short story. I love MC's character & I like the ML, they suited each other. Thank goodness she didn't married her ex-fiance or else their characters would've clashed bcs that ex of her is childish as hell, none the wiser

Okay novel that follows along the intro... no surprises. FL is pragmatic and was sincere to her fiancé but the fiancé was too immature to appreciate FL.

Spoiler

FL realized that her fiancé had fallen in love with someone else. She didn’t want to live her life fighting for her husband’s affection with his true love. So she initiates the swap out of fiancé to the elder brother. Surprisingly the elder brother agreed, even though he had the clout to disregard his father’s pressure.

Later, the original fiancé and his true love fell out. He regretted his past actions but it was too late.

I loved how she didn't despair and instead took matters into her own hands once she saw the situation as it was. She gave her childhood and youth being devoted and dreaming of the wrong person, but she had enough discernment to dig herself out of that affection and chose a different road.

✨ A Must-Read Gem! ✨ First and foremost, a huge shoutout to the translator for their incredible work! The translation was smooth, making the reading experience so enjoyable. 💖 Now, onto the novel itself—chef’s kiss 👌. The plot was captivating from start to finish, proving that a short story can still pack a punch. Every moment was worth it!

What I truly adored was the female lead. Finally, a woman who values herself! No foolish delusions, no waiting around hoping a man will magically change—just pure self-respect and the strength to move on.... more>> We absolutely LOVE a smart, non-naïve heroine who knows her worth. 💯 If you’re looking for a short but satisfying read with a strong female lead and a well-crafted plot, this novel is absolutely worth your time. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ <<less

This story really portrayed the sentence: "Sometimes, what you think good for you isn't actually good and what you think not good is actually good for you". Xie Shen Zhi might a good match for MC in term of family background, personality, etc while ML, who had a bad reputation and the son of concubine, was a bad choice. But MC still chose to marry ML anyway.

Spoiler

Her choice was actually out of helplessness because she couldn't defy the emperor decree so if not marrying Xie Shen Zhi, her only choice was to marry ML. But MC also thought that ML had a bright future since he was a jinyiwei.

[collapse]

But MC's gamble to choose ML paid off because ML really treated her well.

Spoiler

Although they were married, ML didn't touch MC yet because he was unsure of MC's feeling towards him and Xie Shen Zhi. But after they had a heart to heart talk and spent more time together, they finally became husband and wife for real.
