The Mad Young Lord’s Captive Darling

Modern-day office worker Shen Yuetang transmigrates into a book as a cannon-fodder maid and becomes bound by the rule “death means returning.” She tries every way she can to die so she can return to the modern world, but ends up drawing the attention of Gu Jin, a cold and unhinged young lord.

He holds her life in his hands and keeps her imprisoned by his side. “Want to die? Ask me first.” Forced to kneel, kept against her will, and controlled by his mind-reading ability, they’re locked in an intense push and pull. She is determined to escape, while he has fallen for her.

When she fakes her death, thinking she’ll finally be free, she runs into Gu Jin in a small town in Jiangnan. Smiling, he closes in step by step. “If I don’t chase you now, you’ll disappear for good.”

A devoted couple with no stand-ins: watch the unhinged young lord win back his wife, as the proud maid and he go from “fighting in a cage” to saving each other.
