[Delicate, Scheming Beauty vs. Sickly, Black-Bellied Young Lord]
"In her previous life, she didn't realize until the moment she died that what she thought was a mutual love had been an utter deception from beginning to end.
The scumbag young lord loved her, protected her, married her, and did everything for her only to pave the way for his white moonlight.
Though she was the legitimate daughter of a marquis's household, the scumbag and his lover joined forces to torment her. Her family was destroyed, and she was thrown into the imperial prison and sentenced to death.
She opened her eyes and was back at sixteen!
In this life, she would make those two vile people pay!"
Yu Tao transmigrates, but unfortunately, not as "her". She becomes the wicked woman from that villainous couple.
A wolf in front of her (the reborn heroine), a tiger behind her (a treacherous minister and faithless man).
Yu Tao squeezes her eyes shut. Her life is in grave danger, and she may not live to see tomorrow.
To escape the plot and return to a peaceful life, she punches her way through the heroine's entourage and sheds the label of the busty, brainless supporting character.
So what if the heroine is reborn?
She's seen it all and knows how to play cute. If she wants to be a bad woman, then she'll be a bad woman, and she'll get what she wants.
But what's with this sickly scumbag of a young lord?
Isn't he supposed to be heartbroken and full of regret, begging the reborn heroine to look at him?
Why is he clinging to her every day, demanding a commitment?

In Shengjing, one man stands above the rest. The young lord is sickly and short-lived, yet peerlessly handsome and favored by the emperor, treated better than the princes. Unfortunately, he's picky, and no one has ever caught his eye.
Yet this young lord, who has never paid anyone any mind, saw her once and grabbed the front of her clothes, refusing to let go, as if he'd found a treasure.
One day, the sickly beauty held her hand, coughed up blood, and then coughed again and again. "Benefactor, you saved my life, so I should repay you with my own. Besides, I'm already yours. You have to take responsibility for me."
