Modern girl Xia Anqing accidentally transmigrates into a book, becoming a despised concubine-born daughter and cannon fodder. On her wedding night, the cold-faced prince, reborn to take revenge, grabs her by the throat:
“Xia Anqing, don't think I wouldn't dare kill you!”
She is so wronged she's trembling. “Your Highness, I truly had no plans to assassinate you!”
In her original life, she was framed by the Third Prince for plotting against Leng Yuxiao, and met a grisly end. Now forced to marry into the prince's manor, she faces a reborn tyrant husband watching her like a hawk, while her legitimate mother and sister keep launching attacks from behind. Even serving tea earns her a patch of red burns from boiling water.
“This maid can't be allowed to live.” She turns the blame on someone else, but Leng Yuxiao narrows his eyes and scrutinizes her. “Who are you, really?”
She advances step by step, clearing the original owner's name while protecting her frail birth mother. “Mother, I swear I'll get you out of this den of wolves!”
Meanwhile, Leng Yuxiao grows more and more bewildered. This woman is cunning as a fox one moment, delicate as a willow the next, and even dares to touch his abs. “It's an auspicious day. Shall we retire for the night?”
When the truth comes to light, he grips her waist and sneers. “So what if you transmigrated? No matter what, don't even think about escaping again.”
