[A sickly, flirtatious, aloof and calculating male lead x a highly skilled, coolly alluring, coquettish female lead]
After transmigrating into a book, Ye Ran becomes the unfortunate female supporting character, forcibly betrothed to the Seventh Prince of Great Yu, the original male lead’s uncle: a sickly prince rumored to die before the age of twenty-five.
The Ye family is so clueless! The prince seems gentle and affectionate on the surface, but he’s full of schemes in private. If Ye Ran marries him, won’t she be advertising herself as a spy and practically begging him to toy with her?
But Ye Ran is stubborn to the core. Run away? She never even considers it. Winning him over is the only sensible option!
But later,
he holds her close, teasing her until her heart and body are in turmoil.
Thirty miles beyond the military camp, a violent storm rages and war drums thunder. A woman stands before the troops with a white sword in hand. She flashes a brilliant smile, then sheaths her sword with effortless grace. The man rides up, lifts her onto his horse, and wraps his arms around her as he says,
“Why are you in such a hurry, Princess Consort? Eager to spend a romantic night in my tent?” His voice is low and seductive, his breath lightly teasing Ye Ran’s ear.
Ye Ran’s heart pounds. She forces herself to say,
“I don’t want that!”
But inside, she thinks, Please, Your Highness, stop flirting with me!
