Transmigration + Historical Romance + Bickering Couple + Light Political Intrigue + Women's Growth
A modern-day overworked office worker transmigrates to ancient times and becomes the expendable wife of an undercover agent. She's a good-for-nothing, terrified of dying, and has no golden finger to help her, so she can only rely on herself to gradually learn and escape danger. The hero became an undercover agent to save his father and brothers, and has been lying low for three years. To avoid getting married, he asks the Imperial City Bureau to provide him with a "wife." Their first meeting is a dead end. He keeps trying to send her away, but can't manage it, so they have no choice but to live under the same roof and pretend to be a loving couple. Without realizing it, they fall for each other, and things take a turn in the opposite direction.
"My lady, please stop trying to lose weight."
"Why?"
"Well, it's embarrassing to say. I'm afraid you'll hit me."
"Go ahead. I promise I won't hold it against you."
"Well, you're no longer as delightful as you once were."
A flurry of thwacks.
"I'll beat you to a pulp, you shameless jerk!"
