Contract Countdown: Fox Immortal, Don’t Think You Can Shake Me Off

Su Xiaoxiao has been unlucky since childhood. At nineteen, she faces the greatest crisis of her life: a year ago, through her own thoughtlessness, she disrupted the cultivation of Tu Shan Qingyan, the Fox Clan's imperial lord, leaving him gravely injured. Her grandmother gives her life in exchange, binding Su Xiaoxiao to a life-saving contract with the fox immortal. If she can't make this cold, sharp-tongued fox immortal fall in love with her before she turns twenty, the contract will backfire and kill her.

To stay alive, Su Xiaoxiao launches herself into shameless, devoted-puppy mode, trying every trick to please her gorgeous, seductive creditor. He goes from finding her annoying and hurling cutting remarks at her to worrying when she gets hurt, and the iceberg slowly begins to melt. But this unusual “contractual romance” infuriates Bai Qianrou, the fox immortal's childhood friend. At first, Bai Qianrou looks down on Su Xiaoxiao's obsequious attempts to win her favor. Then jealousy drives her to lay traps at every turn. Faced with attacks from the shadows and head-on, Tu Shan Qingyan finally stops standing by. He goes from ignoring Su Xiaoxiao to becoming fiercely protective of his wife, sheltering her beneath his wings.

This is a fast-paced, sweet romance in which life itself is the wager, with a lovers-to-lovers pursuit that puts the hero through the wringer. It's also the legend of an ordinary girl who defies the odds and rises to become a queen.
