(A gorgeous eldest prince who seems like a frivolous playboy but is actually deeply calculating VS an elegant beauty with a prominent family background, high emotional intelligence, and a saintly heart)
When she wakes up, Da Lu Annuo discovers she is living in an ancient romance novel.
She is graceful, wealthy, and born into a distinguished family. She is the male lead Tuoba Junxi’s childhood sweetheart and the ultimate plot device in the romance between the leads.
In the story, she devotes her time, money, and connections to Tuoba Junxi. When she learns he has fallen for the “Cinderella” heroine, she sets aside her status and befriends the girl, helping the couple succeed in love and in their careers. She is the very picture of selfless devotion.
In the end, heartbroken by unrequited love, she falls gravely ill. Every doctor in the capital says she cannot be saved, yet after Tuoba Junxi makes an earnest appeal, she accepts the heroine as her sworn younger sister.
The day Tuoba Junxi marries the heroine is the day of her funeral rites on the seventh day after death...
“Ugh...”
On the bed, Da Lu Annuo rubs her temples.
It’s true that she likes Tuoba Junxi, but if she had known how things would turn out, she wouldn’t have foolishly put herself through all that pain.
From today onward, her heart is closed to love. The young lady raised by the Da Lu family wasn’t born into this world to suffer and be mistreated!
But... why does an outwardly righteous eldest prince keep becoming an unexpected variable in her plans?
A certain devious schemer’s inner monologue: Heaven knows, some people will never get close to you in their whole lives unless they resort to a little scheming (shrugs and smiles)
