Synopsis

(The score is low because few people have rated it. Hopefully it will go up.) A heroine who seems poised and refined but is actually obsessed with fluffy things, and a hero who is aloof and elegant in public but innocent and a little clingy in private

[Gender-bender, female dominant, no role reversal + she pursues him + she is stronger than him + fast-paced sweet romance + both leads are each other's first]

For the first twenty-odd years of her life, Yan Qingci's heart was hard as stone. She thought love was nothing but a worldly affectation, yet the moment she first saw Gu Yuan, she was captivated by his looks.

A cool beauty with a beauty mark beneath his eye, heterochromatic eyes, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and a nine-tailed fox at that. He was exactly her ideal partner.

Yan Qingci hadn't planned on falling for him, but he was an innocent, awkward little fluffball!

At first, all he could do was address her distantly as "Your Highness."

But later, the usually cool and abstinent commander was pinned beneath Yan Qingci. His usually frosty eyes grew misty, and even his most private fox tail was rubbed until it flushed red.

When imperial officials pressed Yan Qingci to choose an imperial consort, the most self-disciplined and proper commander let his clothes slip halfway off, placed her hand on his snowy white fox ears, and murmured in a bewitching voice, "Your Majesty, shouldn't you give me a title?"

Content warning: The hero has a bit of a fox-spirit side. Once he falls for the heroine, he becomes proactive. The worldbuilding is full of authorial liberties, and all the political intrigue is just there to set up the romance between the leads. The romance is the main focus, so please don't scrutinize the politics too closely, I beg you. This novel doesn't hold up to close examination anyway.

Looking for a Book, Thanks!

The protagonist transmigrates into the world of immortal cultivation. Because his master mistakes his gender, he has no choice but to wear women’s clothes and becomes a Holy Land saintess. I think there’s a System, and he’s very powerful. It’s apparently a wish-fulfillment novel. Later on, I think they added a forum-style character introduction. That’s about all I remember. Please, please help!

So far, it's been great, no major flaws, and the main character's personality really resonates with me. I just hope the main couple's relationship doesn't fade later on. I've read many novels where the main couple's feelings seem to cool down towards the end. Having a secondary couple is fine, but it shouldn't overshadow the main couple.

This is so good! This book is really well-written; it shouldn't have such a low rating. It perfectly matches my tastes. The male lead seems aloof on the surface, but he's actually incredibly shy around the female lead. Plus, there's the fox's true form, and the tail and ears are like sensitive spots—it's incredibly delicious! I really don't understand why it has such a low rating.

It's great! The male lead's character is so incredibly appealing to me—cold yet alluring, and he's also so genuinely innocent. Our female lead absolutely loves him! Author, please update soon!

The more you watch, the more addictive it becomes. The interactions between the female and male leads flow naturally, creating a sweet romance with occasional moments of jealousy. The plot develops smoothly and steadily, without any melodramatic clichés. Highly recommended! 😘😘😘

There are no major flaws, and the romance between the male and female leads is really sweet and engaging, with a lot of suspense. 💕 It still looks great even after rewatching!!!

It's really good, and the characters are well-developed. The male lead is cold to outsiders but sweet to inside, and he can't resist the female lead's coaxing—she's so obedient and adorable! It's a sweet story with little political intrigue. Actually, if you don't look too closely, the little bit of political maneuvering is passable.
