After Faking My Death, the Mad Power Minister Chases Me to the Ends of the Earth

[Transmigrate into a book + possessive coercion + obsessive, unstable love interest + locked-room confinement + lie-flat heroine + mutual devotion] “You’ve already died once. Where do you think you can run now?”

After transmigrating into the role of the villainess, Ye Jianqing does everything she can to avoid her tragic ending, becoming even more wicked until the aloof male lead, Pei Wuyan, can’t stand her. On the day her mission is complete, she makes off with a fortune worth hundreds of millions, fakes her death in front of everyone, and heads straight to Jiangnan to buy a hundred mu of fertile land. At last, she can live in extravagant comfort, surrounded by handsome men.

But after just a few carefree years, aboard a pleasure boat in Jiangnan, the deranged, powerful male lead who was supposed to hate her to the core corners her against the wall, eyes red. Once a distant flower on a high peak, he is now consumed by fury. He strokes her trembling cheek, smiling with a tenderness that feels unhinged. “Qingqing, you made me suffer so much. This time, even if you die, you’ll die in my arms.”

When a heavy, icy gold chain snaps around her ankle, Ye Jianqing stares at the man who has completely lost his mind and panics. Wasn’t he supposed to hate me more than anything?

(She looks terrified on the outside, but thinks: This gold chain is solid gold. It’ll fetch a pretty penny. Fine, chain me up. I’ll just lie flat somewhere else!)
