Xie Heng is reborn on the proudest day of his life: his wedding night.
His bride is the transmigrator princess consort who ruined his kingdom and family in his previous life, and whom he despises with every fiber of his being.
Once a prince renowned for his military exploits, he was manipulated by her until he became a disgraced crown prince and died with hatred in his heart.
In this life, he has returned from hell, sworn to rip away her disguise and make her pay for her blood debts.
But when he lifts the bridal veil with murderous hatred etched into his bones, the face waiting for him isn't the deceitful, coquettish one he remembers.
The woman before him has eyes clear as water. As he reaches out to offer her the nuptial wine, she swiftly writes three words in his palm:
"Shall we work together?"
Shen Qingci knows she's transmigrated into the body of a villainess.
The System tells her she must follow the script, deceive the God of War prince, and steal his kingdom if she wants to survive.
But the moment she sees Xie Heng, she knows: this man's eyes conceal the flames and frost of someone reborn.
To hell with this garbage script.
She decides to come clean and forge an alliance with him, using a modern woman's ingenuity to make them an unstoppable team.
He teaches her the rules of survival in this world, and she helps him unravel the mysteries that lie ahead.
When Xie Heng realizes that this "transmigrator" is nothing like the woman he remembers from his previous life, and that she keeps saving him from danger, he is left confused:
Should he take revenge, or... pull her into his arms?
And neither of them knows that another, more dangerous "kindred spirit" is lurking in the shadows, watching this splendid kingdom from afar and hiding within the game of chess woven from rebirth and transmigration...
