Ruan Linglong was born into a family of military generals and had strength enough to lift a cauldron.
Her mother feared that, like her cousin, she would earn a fearsome reputation that scared off good families and leave her unable to marry. So from childhood, her mother taught her to pretend to be frail and helpless.
After all her tireless efforts at disguising herself, the day finally came when the emperor arranged her marriage to the Sixth Prince, Xiang Bowen, who was rumored to be just as delicate and helpless as she was.
The whole capital agreed that these two sickly weaklings made the perfect match!
But no one expected that Xiang Bowen wasn’t so innocent either!
He was…! He was also pretending to be weak, a two-faced schemer!
