A Shy Sweetheart Reborn as the Love-Struck Crown Prince's Ex-Wife

[Severely socially anxious, timid money-maker × delusional, obsessive tycoon who thinks everything is about him | Jealous puppy husband | Three-month escape countdown | Both chaste, happy ending]

Shen Niantang transmigrates into a book.

She becomes the obsessive ex-wife who tried to force herself on Lu Shiyan, the heir to Beijing’s most powerful family. She drugged him and faked a pregnancy, only to be sent by Lu Shiyan to a psychiatric hospital, where he tortured her to death.

When she opens her eyes, she’s straddling Lu Shiyan, his collar hanging open and his face grim.

Only three months remain before the tragic ending of the original story.

Shen Niantang is so painfully shy that even saying a few extra words to someone makes her ears turn red. She’s terrified and scrambles into a corner.

Fight for his attention? Not in this lifetime!

She stays up all night drawing up an escape plan:

Later, Shen Niantang gets a job at Gu Yanzhou’s design studio.

That night, Lu Shiyan emerges from the bathroom drenched, bare-chested, droplets of water clinging to his eight-pack abs.

He pins Shen Niantang to the sofa, his rough fingertips stroking her swollen lips. His voice is as hoarse as sandpaper scraping across a surface:

“He buys you milk tea and you smile at him? Shen Niantang, who’s your man?”

When the three-month countdown ends, Shen Niantang takes her escape fund, slaps the divorce papers against his face, and prepares to leave for good.

But the next second, Lu Shiyan, restored to his status as a trillion-yuan tycoon, loses his mind.

He braves the storm alone and pins her in a shadowy corner of the balcony.

His phoenix eyes bloodshot, the man pulls the black silk tie from his neck and wraps it around his own wrist, loop after loop. He kneels humbly at her feet and reverently kisses her jade-like toes.

“Niantang, don’t go… I’ll give you my money and my life. Please, deceive me one more time.”
