[The Fugitive Saintess of Miaojiang x The God of War Who Talks Himself into Love]
Reborn once, Zuo Jinye no longer wants to be a sacrifice.
She is the Saintess of Miaojiang, born with a “blessed” bloodline, yet betrayed by those closest to her.
When she opens her eyes again, she is still the inconspicuous Seventh Young Lady of the Zuo family.
This time, to hell with the shackles of being a saintess, to hell with love that ends in tragedy, and to hell with duty to family and country. All she wants is to protect her loved ones in this life and shut the doors on the world for a few peaceful days.
But the trees may wish for stillness, yet the wind will not cease.
Within the family, her gentle, legitimate elder sister smiles with a knife hidden behind her back, while even her seemingly loving grandmother has her own motives;
In the capital, her childhood friend, the son of a military family, leaves for the frontier because of her, while Qin Yinnian, the cold and fearsome Marquis of Yanbei, gazes at her with ever-deeper eyes, as if he can see through the disguise she has worn across two lifetimes.
Worse still, the “fate” from her previous life follows her like a shadow. The prophecy of Miaojiang's Great Shaman, and the secret hidden deep within her bloodline that seems capable of stirring up the whole world... all threaten to shatter her dream of lying flat.
Zuo Jinye rubbed her brow and sighed.
Then, unhurriedly, she drew the poisoned silver hairpin from her sleeve.
If she could not escape, then she would stop running.
In this life, she would tear apart this man-eating chessboard with her own hands.
[Reading Guide]
1. Clear-headed, decisive heroine x outwardly cold, inwardly warm hero (only toward her): The heroine is no pushover, has her wits about her, and takes revenge on the spot. The hero starts out as a cold, aloof man of action, but later becomes a love-struck, devoted dog. The two strong leads join forces.
2. Face-slapping twists to the extreme: Domestic and palace intrigue intertwine with political schemes, with plots within plots and schemes within schemes. Anyone you think is good or bad could turn out to be the opposite.
