#Assassin Princess Consort * Yandere Disgraced Crown Prince# [Roguish and full of tenderness] **[Sickly, cunning, and devoted to one alone]
Original title: After Transmigrating Into a Book, the Disgraced Crown Prince Keeps Breaking Character
She is a blood-tempered blade, yet insists on being a springtime songbird. He is trapped in a cage, yet lifts his head to catch the spring light.
Luo Yuan: "I am snow without warmth, and he is a night without an exit. We are each other's antidote and make each other whole. We are... very important to one another."
Xiao Jin: "In this world, neither of us is a puppet for others to manipulate. But I... am willing to let you manipulate me."
Luo Yuan, a top assassin from the twenty-second century, is ruthless yet frank and carefree. By chance, she transmigrates into a book and meets Xiao Jin, a disgraced crown prince who had transmigrated into a game earlier and suffered greatly there. He is obsessive, suspicious, and cunning.
One must complete a System-bound mission: help the second male lead rise to power. The other must achieve the game's objective: make a comeback, or remain trapped in the story world forever.
So Luo Yuan uses her intelligence and wit to help Xiao Jin level up and fight his way through one challenge after another. They bicker, break up, and get back together, progressing from a gloomy, desolate abandoned palace to the magnificent, gilded hall of supreme power.
They go from distrusting one another to becoming comrades who would risk their lives for each other, and from holding back to finally opening their hearts and falling truly in love.
But when the missions are complete, the truth of the world becomes clearer, and they discover something even more terrifying... Luo Yuan and Xiao Jin may not even exist in the same dimension...
Reader's Guide:
1. The heroine transmigrates into a book, the hero into a game, and the second female lead into a book. Expect a melodramatic, anything-goes mix.
2. The heroine is strong and the hero is weaker, but that doesn't mean he is weak in every way.
3. Set in an alternate history, with plenty of original worldbuilding.
4. There is a System, but it barely features and can almost be treated as a chatty messenger.
Theme: Never give up on pursuing happiness. Live bravely, and love bravely.
