[Hostage princess VS a prince who plays dumb while hiding his claws] [Clever heroine and outrageous schemes; don't read if that's not your thing]
A surrender document saved her life, but also sent her straight into another kind of hell. Who says a hostage has to live like a miserable prisoner? She refused. She was determined to find herself a golden wing she could rely on, only to become the most dependable golden wing of all.
The prince she'd drugged said, “I'll marry you. If one day you don't want to go on, I'll set you free.”
Her future father-in-law, the emperor, said, “To become my daughter-in-law, you'll have to prove yourself worthy. Start by winning over the old ancestor.”
Who would have thought that the old ancestor would send people to summon her to the palace every few days? Chu Jinyu looked troubled. “It's not that I'm refusing to follow orders, but I'm just a tiny bit busy lately. I have to assist the Ministry of Justice with its investigations and provide leads whenever needed.”
Before long, this hostage everyone had trampled on became a prized catch. Some wanted to seize her openly, while others tried to kill her in secret. But who could control her fate? She could, of course!
