They say Regent Shen Zhuye follows the path of severed passions, cold-hearted and devoted in this life only to the Great Qi dynasty.
That is, until he locks the calamity-bringing giant demon in the Frozen Pool, then offers her his very heart on a platter.
“The laws of Great Qi are antiquated, so I’ll abolish them for you. The moon over this world is cold, so I’ll warm it for you.”
Even if the whole world calls her a giant demon, he is willing to become her prison, confining her, cherishing her, and protecting her.
Only Zhu Ran knows that this unreachable regent is, in private, the biggest money-splashing investor in the Myriad Demons Group.
Others transmigrate to break a love curse. She came to whip the regent into shape.
She tracks progress in Excel, uses Feishu to chase the prince into doing his work, and oversees a business empire spanning Myriad Demons Express, Spirit-Demon Food Delivery, cross-border livestreaming, and more.
While the whole capital is still caught up in household intrigue, she and the regent have already used modern management methods to turn the world into a business simulation game.
The Empress Dowager berates him: “Shen Zhuye, you’re letting demons run rampant!”
Shen Zhuye gives a cold laugh and personally hands his princess consort a long blade, his eyes filled with the utmost obsession.
“I became her prison to confine her, and I protect her too. If this world cannot accept her, then I’ll rewrite its rules with my own hands, upon the ruins of this golden age!”
As for Zhu Ran?
She puts away the accounts ledger and casually strokes his scales.
“Enough with the theatrics. Hit your targets and you get a dividend. Break the rules and your salary gets docked. Those are the rules in our household.”
