The Mad Chancellor Is Far Too Possessive

[A young lady whose family has been destroyed × a young, cold-blooded powerful minister, falling in love over time]

Under the emperor's suspicions, Su Heng's family is destroyed, and she ends up in a government-run entertainment house. To clear her father's name, she has no choice but to rely on Lin Cifu, a chancellor second only to the emperor, the Outcast.

Unable to bear his possessiveness, Su Heng decides to run away. Her first escape attempt fails, and she is caught and brought back.

He grips her chin, his gaze dark and sinister. “Hengniang, you really are so disobedient.”

Su Heng doesn't want to be his secret mistress. She pretends to give in, while waiting for her next chance.

At last, Lin Cijing receives orders to leave the capital. With his mother's help, Su Heng shakes off the hidden guards following her and escapes the city.

Fate has other plans. One day, when she returns from an outing, she finds the house so quiet it is frightening. She opens the door and sees Lin Cijing sitting directly across from her.

“Hengniang, I told you that you couldn't escape.”
