After Marrying the Disabled Prince, I Went Looking for Romance

[Transmigration + romance after marriage + heroine builds an entertainment career + the frail prince is secretly no innocent + lighthearted court intrigue]

A heroine who seems arrogant and domineering but is really a burned-out office worker who has given up × a hero who seems frail and gentle but is actually calculating and hiding his true abilities

After working herself to death from overtime, Chu Yao wakes up in the body of Chu Zhilan, the notorious legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Anning’s household, and is betrothed to the Seventh Prince, Xi Changze.

Word has it that the Seventh Prince was born premature, is frail and disabled, and has little time left to live. He is a living nightmare whom every noblewoman in the capital avoids.

Everyone else thinks she has the worst luck.

But Chu Yao’s eyes light up.

How is this a nightmare? It’s the perfect job for a peaceful retirement!

So she happily marries into the Seventh Prince’s residence, planning to listen to stories and watch plays every day, shop and spend money, admire beautiful people, and wait for her husband to meet his end so she can happily become a young widow.

On her first day in the residence, she discovers that her frail husband is far too good at acting pitiful.

“Do you despise me for being frail and disabled, my lady?”

“If you want to leave, I won’t blame you.”

Looking at the sickly beauty before her, on the verge of tears, her heart melts completely.

Fine, fine.

She can take care of a delicate husband along the way to retirement. That’s not so bad.

Only later does she learn that his disability is fake, his frailty is real, and so is his need to keep his abilities hidden to protect himself.

Meanwhile, the stories she casually writes and the card games she teaches people to play accidentally turn the entertainment scene, the world of noblewomen, and even the political landscape of the Sheng dynasty upside down.
