[Sweet, delicate assassin × unhinged emperor | He turned dark after she faked her death]
[Transmigrate into a book + System + Two powerful leads + Devoted to each other + Sweet romance, happy ending]
Song Chiying transmigrates into a book as a top assassin and binds herself to a System, relying on saving the male lead to stay alive.
She pretends to be a delicate little white flower and clings to the aloof scholar Nangong Yan.
After they marry, she effortlessly plays both sides of her life.
At home, she’s too frail to fend for herself; outside, she beats people up without mercy.
Her husband always takes her side without question: “My wife is right, whatever she does.”
She secretly paves the way for him, helping him rise from humble beginnings to become a regent, then fakes her death and returns to the modern world to lie flat.
She hasn’t even had a few days to enjoy herself when the System breaks down: “Host, help! The male lead has completely turned dark and gone mad! Come back now!”
When she opens her eyes again, the once-gentle young man has become a mad emperor with the power of life and death, searching everywhere for forbidden arts to resurrect his dead wife.
She enters the palace pretending to be a stand-in, hoping to shatter the idealized image of his lost love.
She trashes the imperial study, and he indulges her. She hits the consorts, and he dismisses the entire harem.
When rumors spread that he’s about to make her empress, Song Chiying packs her bags and runs away in the middle of the night.
But the man holds her tightly in his arms, his gaze burning with obsessive fervor.
“Yingying, you lied to me. You’ll have to make it up to me for the rest of your life.”
