    Our acquaintance began on a winter afternoon when I was sitting reading outside a shop. He and his friend passed by, and it was love at first sight. I was also instantly smitten, but I was just a Cinderella. In his presence, I was arrogant and domineering, sharp-tongued. He came to my side time and again, but each time I drove him away with my insults. Finally, I angered him with my harsh words and drove him away. When we met again, I had been dating a jerk for over a year. Kaihai started appearing around me again, and he even got his best friend to be my confidante, subtly persuading me to change my mind… My heart gradually softened…

    The male lead seduces the female lead and provokes her. The female lead believes they dated before marrying, while the male lead thinks she's using her cleverness to force him to marry her—it's hilarious! Every time the male lead gets jealous, he crawls around in a dark, manipulative way, acting like a green tea bitch while maintaining the status of the empress and the behavior of a mistress, desperately comforting himself: "As long as I live, you will all be concubines!" It's incredibly appealing.
