[Sweet romance + substitute bride + fake relationship turns real + political intrigue]
[Possessive, tsundere, jealous prince × sweet-talking survival expert]
Jiang Jinshu dreams of her own gruesome death. To change her fate, she's forced to marry Feng Hansheng, a prince of an enemy kingdom said to be ruthless and cruel. Everyone knows Feng Hansheng hates the Jiang family. Sending a daughter to marry him is no different from offering up a living sacrifice. Feng Hansheng looks ready to kill her at any moment, so to stay alive, Jiang Jinshu grits her teeth and spins one sweet lie after another, using love confessions as a shield.
Feng Hansheng: "Jiang Jinshu is a shallow fool. She thinks a few sweet words will make me fall for her. Ha."
Jiang Jinshu: "But you seem to be enjoying it."
Later...
Under the moonlight in the woods, he finally says, "I like you. Could you please not like anyone else?"
Looking into his sincere eyes, she wants the ground to swallow her whole.
She married him to carve out a way to stay alive.
But Feng Hansheng knows nothing of that.
All he knows is that, for the first time in his life, he has laid his heart bare and offered it to her.
