A warm-faced, cold-hearted, ruthless princess vs. a cold-faced, warm-hearted, fiercely loyal bodyguard
Love at first sight + love that grows over time + mutual salvation
The heroine focuses on her career early on, the hero in the middle, and a power grab later...
Wei Yang had parents who were fiercely biased in favor of men, and a childhood steeped in darkness. She hid her marriage from them, hoping it would free her from the pain of her upbringing. But on what she thought would be the happiest day of her life, her mother found out anyway. In front of everyone, she beat and humiliated Wei Yang, triggering an episode that led to a car accident. Wei Yang then transmigrated to an unknown ancient era, becoming Ye Weiyang, the noble yet infamous and wicked Princess Fenglin.
As it turned out, Ye Weiyang was also a pitiable woman, unloved by her father and mother and disdained by her husband. Worse still, Wei Yang arrived while Ye Weiyang was fleeing assassins who were hunting her down.
She later discovered that even the personal maid who had been by her side for over a decade seemed suspicious...
From then on, she stopped trusting anyone around her.
Her husband disdained her? Divorce him and be done with it!
Her parents didn't love her? Leave home and live on her own!
She would rely only on herself, grow stronger, and make herself happy without needing anyone else.
But just as she tried to build a happy life on her own, more misfortunes kept befalling her. And with each new hardship, Ye Weiyang realized she seemed to be caught up in a vast conspiracy...
Even so, she refused to give up on uncovering the whole plot. Along the way, she also noticed something strange about the bodyguard assigned to protect and watch her...
Perhaps he felt more for her than she had thought. Maybe his feelings weren't limited to duty and using her for some other purpose...
