[Historical Romance] [Male Lead Gets His Happy Ending] [Second Male Lead's Groveling Redemption] [Mutual Firsts] [Sweet with Angsty Moments]
Is he a carefree young rake, or a noble heir who keeps his talents hidden?
She is an unfortunate orphan whose parents both died, but also a clever, resourceful woman who never forgets her path to revenge.
Revenge? Palace intrigue? Political schemes? A bloody path of vengeance begins here. Along the way, she fights shoulder to shoulder with that carefree young rake, and the two gradually fall for each other.
Mu Qingqian said to Mu Chuan, "You're getting married. We need to keep our distance."

At first, Mu Qingqian didn't like Jiang Yu'an, the rakish young noble, one bit. Later, she realized his carefree manner was just a mask. Once she saw past it, all she wanted was to be close to him, day and night.
At first, Jiang Yu'an was often sarcastic and scornful toward Mu Qingqian. Later, he realized she wasn't the spoiled, headstrong woman he'd imagined. He fell in love, and all he wanted was to be with her, day and night.

Jiang Yu'an answered readily, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he took the opportunity to capture her lips.
What a scoundrel! Qingqian cursed him inwardly.
But her resistance was soon swept away by that passionate kiss, leaving her utterly defenseless. It seemed every sensation in her body had been heightened...
Her defenses were breached, layer by layer...
