[Beautiful, clear-headed female lead transmigrates into a book + an obsessive, possessive heir]
[Seizing her by trickery + gradually descending into madness + lust first, love later + chasing his wife and facing a long road to redemption]
Jiang Mi transmigrated into a book as a cannon-fodder female supporting character who had died tragically and been reborn. Taking the attitude of “I'm here now, so I might as well make the most of it,” she resolved to lie low until the very end.
By saving him in a “falling from the sky” rescue, she successfully latched onto a powerful patron.
She played the concubine, acted spoiled and domineering, and dispelled rumors, all so she could be a dutiful lackey.
She'd planned to earn enough silver and make a carefree getaway, but he seized her slender wrist, his eyes bloodshot. “Mi'er, where do you think you're going?”
At first: He was aloof, noble, and above it all. Becoming his concubine was her good fortune!
In the end: He lost himself despite knowing better, taking her by trickery and force. He treated her like a mistress and behaved like a brothel patron, all to keep her by his side.
Jiang Mi thought Song Jinyan wasn't up to the task. After one night, she learned he was more than up to it! Her back was nearly broken.
Watching the male lead ignore the plot and think only with his lower half, she knew one thing:
Run. She had to run!
He was destined to become a mad emperor who would surround a city with his army and slaughter everyone in the palace. What status did she have to share his bed?
She humored him and played along, only to find a chance to fake her death and escape.
She tried to put the plot back on track, but it went completely off the rails.
Good-looking, good-looking, good-looking
