[One-on-one romance + sweet love + love grows over time + faked death + groveling pursuit + happy ending]
[Warm on the outside, cool on the inside embroiderer × cold on the outside, shamelessly flirtatious prince]
The moment Shi Ran opens her eyes, she finds herself in the middle of a forced seduction.
The good news: she’s the one doing the forcing.
The bad news: her target is the amnesiac male lead, who will have her executed by slicing her to death a year from now.
In the original novel, Pei Qingyan loses his memory after being betrayed by a trusted aide and ends up in Yangzhou, where the original owner tricks him into coming home with her.
From then on, Pei Qingyan hauls sacks at the docks by day and serves the original owner devotedly at night, with not a shred of dignity.
Later, when the emperor comes south and finds Pei Qingyan, he turns around and has the original owner skinned alive.
So Shi Ran immediately decides: keep her head down, make money, and fake her death!
But the plot refuses to follow the script...
The original heroine has actually been reborn!
After she fakes her death, Pei Qingyan comes looking for her himself!
Her sworn enemy, who has always hated her, wants to marry her!
In short, everything has turned into a complete mess.
Better drink it while it’s hot.
