A soft and sweet heroine who's a corporate drone X a rising powerful official. Meng Chenglan wakes up inside an ancient romance novel she's only read one page of, as a flirtatious, scheming young general who hits on men all over the army camp.
She thinks she can live a peaceful life as long as she doesn't provoke the heroine. But the tides turn, family power struggles bring her crashing down, and she becomes the lowest-ranking bedchamber maid in the household of a rising powerbroker.
Meng Chenglan sees black. Since she's here, she may as well make the best of it, and decides to treat being a bedchamber maid like a job. Her “boss,” Jiang Zhiye, may be an iceberg who kills without mercy on the battlefield, but he's good to the people under him. Meng Chenglan works diligently, fulfills her duties as a servant in a powerful household, and saves every penny. She plans to wait until Jiang's properly matched wife arrives, then pack her bags, ask for a favor, and make a clean getaway. But why does her boss seem more and more displeased with her?
They spend their nights in passion, while by day he searches for a way to overturn the case against the sweet girl nestled in his arms. But Jiang Zhiye realizes that this ungrateful little thing is thinking of running away. No way. He'll drag her back and punish her until she can hardly walk.
“In my heart, you've always been my wife.”
