Lovesick, scheming heir: service and discipline
Low-energy, soft and sweet beauty: sensual and sincere
Both chaste, with a redemptive romance
·
Tan Nuoshui transmigrates into a book as the male lead Shi Xunye's former lover, a woman he remembers as shameless and fickle.
·
The original owner was lustful and mercenary. She used every scheme to control Shi Xunye, body and heart, and tried to manipulate him at will. She never imagined that one day Shi Xunye would transform into the heir of one of the capital's most fearsome and powerful families.
Before long, every one of her scandals and misdeeds is easily exposed. Her affairs and schemes are laid bare before the heir.
The original owner kneels and begs for mercy, but the heir need only lift a finger for people to rush to clean up the trash that is her.
·
Fortunately, Tan Nuoshui transmigrates just after Shi Xunye has confirmed their relationship. She hasn't touched his body or his heart, so if she handles things carefully, she still has a chance to survive.
Unfortunately, her life is full of unknown landmines, and she never knows which one will go off each day. Living in constant fear is exhausting for a low-energy office worker like her.
As Tan Nuoshui carefully defuses one landmine after another, she eagerly waits for the heroine to appear and take the hot potato Shi Xunye off her hands.
But on the day she arranges for him to marry the original heroine, she somehow ends up lying on the bed in his wedding suite.
His eyes are bloodshot. Both hands grip her waist, his long fingers digging into her soft flesh. He presses her hard and demands furiously:
"Miss Tan, what a clever little schemer you are."
"You let me go so easily? Why not scheme to the very end? You could have had your fill of me before calling it quits!"
