Who could have guessed that the original story’s love-rival supporting heroine would be the white moonlight of a million readers? The readers’ pent-up resentment somehow made its way through popular book reviews into the mind of Li Chaoge, the character in the story. A paper-doll character doomed to a tragic ending was awakened by the reviews.
“Is our princess, who was a force to be reckoned with in the beginning, really just going to become a prop for the leads to flirt over later?”
“Unacceptable! Li Chaoge deserves a complete life that shines!”
She hurled the broken engagement letter at Xie Qining’s face.
Then she turned to the court, playing both sides and working with the original heroine and others to take control of her life again.
As she delved deeper, she discovered that behind the backdrop of the original sweet romance lurked a shocking twist. Someone she had once trusted had two faces!
Her ex never expected that the moment Li Chaoge ended their engagement, a crowd of men would be fighting to win her over.
The austere court official applied pressure in public. “I never competed for her before because her heart belonged to you. From now on, I, Su, will give the young lord no more chances.”
Her fiercely passionate sworn younger brother closed in step by step. “You look at Sister the same way I do. How innocent can your feelings be? You’d be better off gouging your eyes out.”
For some inexplicable reason, Xie Qining grew jealous. “Li Chaoge, come here! I’ll reluctantly give you another chance.”
Together, they investigated embezzlement, fought a naval battle at the seaport, and defended Shengjing...
After everything they went through, Xie Qining finally realized what kind of woman he had lost.
The proud young lord knelt for a long time, eyes red as he pleaded, “Zhaozhao, don’t go.”
Li Chaoge gave a quiet snort. “Why shouldn’t I? Without you, life is a breeze.”
