[A self-conscious, sensitive, love-struck godlike prince x a clear-eyed yet kind reborn princess who was married in someone else’s place and is a painter]
After being reborn, mortal princess Jiang Lingsi discovers that the tragedy of her previous life was a “romantic tribulation script” devised by the gods. Her entire life of enduring humiliation and loving devotedly had been nothing but a joke.
More absurdly, the husband she cursed day and night for dying young had loved her with all his heart.
In her previous life, whenever she got drunk, she would crawl into his bed.
If she reached out, he would press his face into her palm like a puppy.
When she complained that he was too thin and didn’t feel nice to touch, he worked out day and night to build his strength.
Even when she cheated on him, he would simply pat down his clothes and accept it with a smile.
Whenever Jiang Lingsi sobered up and found herself in that jinx’s room, she would give him an earful. He would gently coax her into drinking the bowl of memory-erasing medicine.
And whenever she drank too much, she would somehow end up in his bed again.
Of course, Jiang Lingsi learned all this only after she died. But what surprised her most was something else entirely:
Her frail, helpless mortal husband was actually a terrifying figure whose name struck fear throughout the highest heavens.
Back on the day she was married off in someone else’s place, she takes the initiative to wield her sword and protect him, clearing his name.
He, meanwhile, pulls out every trick he can think of.
“Princess, an insect bit me… Could you have a look?”
Then he slowly lifts his shirt, revealing a perfectly sculpted six-pack.
A few things to note about this story:
1. This isn’t a pure wish-fulfillment story. The author is committed to giving every character depth.
2. The leads are both faithful to each other! The male lead was faithful in both his previous and current lives, in body and heart. He’s completely love-struck.
3. The characters aren’t perfect. Both leads have their flaws, especially the heroine, so please give them room to grow.
4. There’s no deliberate hostility toward women. No harem infighting or extensive rivalry between women.
