[Transmigrate into a book + devoted to one another + tyrant + devoted to one another + multiple identities + the male lead may engage in twisted behavior such as imprisonment later on]
After transmigrating into a book overnight, Xiao Lian became a disposable character who was killed off early in a sweet romance novel she had read.
From the start, she was unlucky enough to get caught up in an assassin's attempt to kill the tyrant, Baili You, and lose her life.
But in reality, the original owner of her body was also a spy the male lead had planted beside the antagonist.
And yet... she hadn't died?
The rules for staying alive.
Rule number one: cling to the antagonist tyrant's coattails. At first, she only tested the waters, but later...
The antagonist tyrant seemed to become a different person.
(Closing in step by step) “What exactly are your intentions?”
Xiao Lian (earnest gaze): “I've admired Your Majesty for a long time, of course.”
*
(As if it were no big deal) “The ministers have petitioned for me to choose consorts. What do you think?”
“Your Majesty should indeed start taking in consorts.”
Baili You (gritting his teeth): “Is that so?”
*
“There will never be anyone else. From beginning to end, there has only been you.”
“Let me make you Empress, all right?”
Someone who was planning to fake her death and escape (Xiao Lian): (guiltily) All right...
All because one day,
the enemy kingdom's princess saw her and declared that she was the long-lost Saintess from the rumors.
At first, Xiao Lian didn't believe her, until her memories returned.
A long-planned fake death began to take shape in secret.
She faked her death and escaped, but the tyrant went mad.
She returned to her homeland with the princess, stirring up the political arena and plotting every move, until she and Baili You finally met as enemies on the battlefield.
Now they were truly face-to-face...
Baili You: “Empress, surely you've had enough of this little game of pretending to have amnesia...”
Xiao Lian: “Hey, why are you taking your clothes off!”
