[Possessive Pursuit + Two-Faced Heroine + Sweet and Angsty Romance + Devoted Couple + Fantasy]
When Chu Xiangning was born, strange celestial signs appeared. Before she was even a month old, she was taken to the imperial palace to be raised and was named a Holy Maiden.
Holy Maidens must obey strict rules, sever worldly attachments, and be free of desire before they can show compassion to all. But she doesn't care for those rules. She never wanted to be a Holy Maiden in the first place.
Yet on the day she plots to escape the palace, Third Prince Sikong Muze sets a trap for her, and she becomes his concubine.
Arrogant and ruthless, Sikong Muze has never cared for anyone, yet he treats her differently. After being struck by a love gu, his affection for her grows like a vine, completely beyond his control. When he learns she is Sikong Ji's destined romantic trial, jealousy consumes him, and he forces her to repeat all night long: “Chu Xiangning only loves Sikong Muze.”
Okay, okay, the plot finally picked up.
