Sweet and angsty + a broken relationship that won't be mended + uncle-in-law romance + the second male lead takes the crown + true and fake heiresses
The opening is a little angsty, but, but, our male lead treats the heroine like a princess!
Three years ago, I went from being the eldest daughter of the Jiang family to the daughter of a human trafficker, despised by everyone.
My childhood sweetheart and fiancé abandoned me, and even my loving parents and brother wanted nothing to do with me.
Overnight, I became a cautionary tale for all of Kyoto.
People branded me vain, a compulsive liar, shameless, cruel, and as venomous as a snake or scorpion.
Three years in prison.
It took only three years to go from Kyoto's most privileged socialite to someone as lowly as dust.
Those three years behind bars taught me to keep my head down, to give in, and to beg for help. If I didn't, those people would torment me even worse.
For three years, I was the “real heiress's” personal blood bank. After I got out, they still forced me to donate blood, but another draw would kill me. I didn't want to die, so I could only run, only escape.
I attached myself to Kyoto's living King of Hell and climbed into his bed. Rumor had it that he was ruthless and had killed countless people. But my face was the only thing I had going for me, and I couldn't think of any other way.
I never expected the living King of Hell to have other feelings for me.
