[Sharp-tongued, abandoned daughter who never tells the truth and plays the pig to eat the tiger VS ruthless, fearsome regent]
[Madwoman VS madman]
“I won’t be an unwanted castoff forever. One day, I’ll stand on their heads,” Yin Yu told herself.
Yu means “leftover,” something extra.
Yin Yu was born into a prominent family, but she was sent to the countryside as soon as she was born. That was how she got her name.
The Yin family brought her back from the countryside so she could take the misfortune meant for their gravely ill ancestor.
Other girls wanted to marry the regent for love.
Yin Yu wanted to marry him to survive.
Who knew this man would be so hard to win over!
“Your Highness, I hear you like black. As luck would have it, I have a black heart. What a coincidence, right?”
The regent: “Get lost.”
Later, the regent asked her, “I treat you so well. Do you have a conscience at all?”
Yin Yu: “No. I told you from the start, I have a black heart.”
After that, his New Year’s wish every year was: “May you be safe and sound every year, and may we have abundance year after year.”
PS: Expect satisfying triumphs, sweetness, and angst. The strong female lead defies convention. This is a fictional setting, so don’t nitpick the details. Happy ending.
I highly recommend it, the pace is fast, the plot is not draggy, and the characters are cool. I like it and please update it soon! ❤️❤️❤️
