[A food blogger transmigrates into the sickly legitimate daughter, and when her secret identity is exposed, Prince Jing pursues her through a fiery road of regret]
Lin Qingyue transmigrates into the legitimate daughter of the Anyuan Marquis’s household, a girl everyone can bully. By day, she coughs up blood and pretends to be frail; by night, she scales walls to sample every street snack in Bianjing. She secretly opens a restaurant and builds an intelligence network, all so she can earn enough silver to run away and live freely.
Prince Jing, Zhao Heng, is ordered to marry the “sickly beauty” to bring him good fortune. But he discovers his fiancée vaulting across rooftops at midnight and devouring roast chicken, then turning around and using sweet-and-sour ribs to win over his hidden guards. When he is forced to invoke their marriage contract to seize power, she tosses down a divorce agreement and sneers, “Your Highness, I have no interest in helping you rule your kingdom.”
Later, countless lanterns blaze for her at the greatest establishment in the martial world, while the emperor himself blocks her getaway carriage. Zhao Heng tears up the imperial edict and charges through the flames, his eyes bloodshot. “Qingyue, I want both the throne and you.”
