[Intense push and pull + mutual salvation + chasing his wife to the crematorium + multiple identity reveals + powerful female lead and political scheming]
From the start, she’s in a death cell, with a red-hot branding iron pressed against her face. Jiang Mian doesn’t cry. She just yawns. “If you’re going to kill me, hurry up. Don’t keep me from sleeping.”
Jiang Mian was a System mission-taker who had once perfectly played the villainess, tricked the male lead out of everything he owned, then faked her death. She never dreamed she would be dragged back into the original novel’s world and transmigrate into the body of an enemy spy who’d been captured!
And the pitiful little prince who used to be bullied by everyone had become Shen Yuan, the ruthless Regent of Great Yan, whose power overshadowed the court.
“Want to live? Fine.” The man gripped her throat, his eyes filled with the madness and hatred of having regained what he’d lost. “You owe me your life from five years ago. I’ll make you pay it back, inch by inch!”
Jiang Mian had planned to coast through life and keep her head down, but the storyline had already gone off the rails.
