[Six failed attempts to win the male lead leave a clearheaded, unhinged marquis's daughter vs. a sharp-tongued young imperial tutor, brilliant in both letters and arms]
[Power couple + rivals competing for her affection + brilliant imperial tutor + selfish yet devoted brother + dark, clingy yandere]
After Jiang Yan died, she became trapped in a loop and had to win over Tan Yizhi, the male lead of a novel. But she failed six times in a row.
On her final attempt, Jiang Yan decided to kill him and end it all. Just then, Lord Xie, the imperial tutor, stopped her.
“Six times, Jiang Yan, and you still haven’t won him over! Is something wrong with your brain!?”
Later, he not only tried to “coerce and tempt” her, but also promised her the position of imperial tutor’s wife and half his realm.
Jiang Yan agreed, and Tan Yizhi’s favorability suddenly shot up to eighty percent!
Is “not loving him” the key to winning him over?
So Jiang Yan played hard to get with Tan Yizhi while plotting a change of dynasty with Lord Xie. Then her sister-obsessed half-brother appeared out of nowhere, becoming obsessively attached to her.
She thought that was the end of it, but everyone was hiding a secret identity. Lord Xie was not only the imperial tutor, but also the leader of the most powerful martial arts faction in the jianghu.
Her obsessive half-brother was not only the second-most powerful martial artist in the jianghu, but also the chief spymaster of an enemy nation.
Even Tan Yizhi, the man she was supposed to win over, turned out to be the son of the enemy nation's Grand Princess.
Jiang Yan felt as if every character in the book had awakened, and she could barely fend off these two men.
“Jiang Yan, keep trying to win him over. This time, I absolutely won’t let you down!”
“Elder Sister, I’ll take you far away. How about we live freely and happily together?”
The two of them tried to pressure and entice her: “Between us, you have to choose one!”
Lord Xie merely lifted his eyelids and looked coolly at Jiang Yan. “Go ahead and try choosing one.”
The writing is excellent, and the plot is wonderful. I don't know how else to describe it; although there's political intrigue, it always manages to subtly weave in a touch of warmth, making it a very comfortable read. Overall, everything is great! Keep up the good work, author! 😘😘😘
The interactions between the male and female leads are incredibly comfortable and feel very real. To put it another way, they make me feel like they're alive, especially the part where the male lead doesn't wash his feet before going to bed and the Xie family men don't like washing their feet—that really resonated with me (I'm secretly wondering if the author drew inspiration from everyday life). It felt very warm and relatable. Keep up the good work, author! I'm rooting for you! [KISS]
The plot is quite interesting.
I read it as a sweet romance novel, but the political intrigue was really hard to describe. Thankfully, the young couple was quite adorable, and the younger brother would have been a good match too, if it weren't for... Well, you know.
It's really good. Both the male and female leads are intelligent, and their interactions are very comfortable.
