A woman disguised as a man, a cold-blooded assassin VS a “pampered wife” of a prince, plus a long, painful chase to win her back.
While carrying out a mission, the assassin Su Qi rescued a gravely wounded, imprisoned beauty from a brothel. Frail and all alone, the beauty was taken in and fed and cared for. Su Qi thought she had found herself a kept beauty, but the other was really a dragon trapped in shallow waters, destined to soar as soon as the winds and clouds turned in his favor...
Xiao Shuo, the heir to a prince, was ambushed on his way to the capital. Just as he was enduring humiliation after humiliation, Su Qi came to his rescue, only to brazenly announce that she wanted to keep him?
Unforgivable! Absolutely unforgivable!
Once he regained his identity, the first thing he would do was teach this shameless brat a lesson!
After becoming crown prince, the vindictive Xiao Shuo made Su Qi his personal guard. But as they spent day after day together, he gradually developed feelings he could never speak of...
Xiao Shuo at first: A man... There's no way I could fall for him! It must be an illusion!
Xiao Shuo later: Maybe gender doesn't have to be such a hard-and-fast rule...
Much later, they both discovered that the other hadn't been telling the truth.
Xiao Shuo was thunderstruck: You're a woman?! How dare you deceive my heart!
Su Qi: As if you haven't lied to me plenty! The musician turned out to be a crown prince, and the delicate flower turned out to be a schemer. I'm done putting up with this!
On the eve of the crown prince's wedding, Su Qi faked her death and escaped. From that moment on, Xiao Shuo began his long, painful chase to win her back:
Wifey... You got me and then stopped cherishing me. You used me and abandoned me! Sob, sob...
Su Qi: ...Get away from me!
As she ran and he chased, Su Qi's mysterious origins gradually came to light...
