The Fussy Heiress Faked Amnesia, and the Buddhist Gentleman of the Capital Broke His Vows

[One True Pairing | 1v1 | Transmigrated in Body]

Shen Jiaojiao awakens and discovers that she is the vicious supporting female character in a wealthy-family novel, doomed to a tragic end.

Because of their childhood betrothal, she clings to the male lead and makes his life miserable at every turn. In the end, he flies into a rage and sends her to northern Myanmar, where she disappears without a trace.

When she sees the male lead preparing to break off their engagement for the woman he has always loved, Shen Jiaojiao is so terrified that she signs the breakup papers that very night and hightails it out of there.

To survive in the ruthless capital’s elite circles, she sets her sights on the male lead’s uncle, Fu Yanshen, a man with unrivaled power who is rumored to be ascetic and desireless.

Fu Yanshen is always fingering his prayer beads, cool and aloof as a flower blooming high on a mountain peak.

Shen Jiaojiao cautiously tries to win him over. “Uncle, I’m afraid of the dark. Can I hold your sleeve?”

“Uncle, I don’t like him anymore. Please don’t send me away, okay?”

She thinks she’s doing a good job of acting meek and obedient, never realizing that Fu Yanshen has already seen through everything.

Until one day, she is backed into a cramped corner.

The rosewood prayer beads he never lets out of his hands are now wrapped tightly around her wrist.

The ascetic’s eyes are bloodshot at the corners. His thumb strokes her lips as he speaks in a hoarse, dangerous voice: “Jiaojiao, now that you’ve tempted me, don’t think you can stop halfway. Don’t call me Uncle. Call me husband.”
