Pure-hatred married couple, possessive coercion, pseudo-siblings
A darkened, domineering dragon-like genius x a delicate, ruthless, sickly beauty
Blurb:
Cheng Ling and Yun Yanci are a young married couple, and the most famously resentful pair in the Nineteen Provinces.
In the fifth year of their marriage, Cheng Ling's memories awaken: it turns out she transmigrated into this world.
This is an old-school, melodramatic fantasy novel.
The male lead is a young immortal lord, a beacon of righteousness, and the female lead is a universally adored goddess reincarnated.
They were fated to be together, but a supporting female character drove them apart for years.
Only after all the usual melodrama, with him chasing and her fleeing, a pursuit that turns into a funeral pyre, misunderstandings, and reconciliation, do they finally end up together.
The cannon-fodder who eventually dies without a bone left behind is her.
Cheng Ling: ?
Without a second thought, she goes to confront the person involved.
That night, Yun Yanci comes through the snow, wearing a black cloak with snowflakes still resting on his shoulders.
Amid the shifting lamplight, the man's features are indistinct. Only his smiling eyes shine like rosy clouds, as he says casually, "What a rare sight. I never thought you'd be the one to come looking for me."
Thinking of the unusually modern transmigration premise in the original story, Cheng Ling falls silent for a moment. "So, did you transmigrate here too?"
At that, Yun Yanci freezes, his dark eyes unreadable.
She gives a slow, cold laugh. "I never thought nine years of compulsory education could produce someone like you."
After awakening to the plot, Cheng Ling brings up divorce again.
Yun Yanci rubs his teacup and answers almost without hesitation. "A Ling, we are husband and wife who worshipped at the altar and sealed our bond."
"We promised that we'd be husband and wife not just in this life, but in the next and every life after. Even if we have to be entangled, we'll be tangled together, never fully severed and never letting go."
Cheng Ling frowns.
It was just a youthful joke, yet he remembers it so clearly. She has long since forgotten every word.
This man looks polished and noble, but in truth he bears grudges and is dangerous to the core.
If they were in the modern world, she would have called the police on him long ago.
Later, when the moment is right, Cheng Ling runs away again.
The night she is brought back, the bed curtains flutter, and the red candles flicker.
Furious, she buries her face in his neck and bites hard. "Go to hell!"
Yun Yanci draws her into his arms, gently strokes her slightly rounded belly, and smiles. "My dear wife, even if I become a ghost, I'll crawl back to find you both."
"After all, a family should be reunited, shouldn't it?"
Reader's guide:
* Sweet, angsty, and satisfying, this is an indulgent romance written to indulge the author's tastes. The romance takes precedence over the plot.
* From non-blood-related brother and sister to lovers, then a couple who pretend to have moved on but still love and resent each other, before truly becoming husband and wife.
* The timeline will include flashbacks. At its heart, this is simply a story told well.
* Many original settings.
* Two modern people transmigrate here. No System.
* More details will be added if I think of them.
