    The female protagonist dresses up as a subjugated queen. In order to follow the plot, she pretends to be cold and aloof on the outside, but she is weird on the inside. Moreover, the male protagonist can hear her voice and is gradually attracted by the liveliness and fun of the heroine. Knowing that the heroine covets him in her heart, he secretly seduce the heroine or create opportunities for her to follow the plot. I think the author's writing style is quite smooth.
