I Was Born to Play with Romance

[Dual Powerhouses] [Mystery] [Court Politics]

One-on-one romance: a free-spirited, socially fearless heroine VS a cold-on-the-outside, clingy and scheming hero. HE

Zhao Shuxing's lifelong ambition was to become a carefree wanderer, unbound by anything.

She'd while away her days flirting with handsome young men, living freely and enjoying every moment.

Who could have guessed that one day she'd stumble into a trap, lose her body, and be left with nothing but a wisp of a soul drifting through the world? Then she fell right into the palm of a mysterious immortal master, who kept her firmly in his grasp.

The immortal master was peerlessly beautiful, but no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't win him over.

After she found her body and regained her memories, Ji Mufeng came after her, demanding that she take responsibility. Little by little, she let go of her playful ways, willingly severed all her other romantic ties, and devoted herself to him alone.

One mystery after another, and the mastermind closing in at every turn, ultimately pointed to a bloody case sealed away for ten years.

As the realm fell into turmoil, Zhao Shuxing set aside her carefree ways and accepted the path fate had set before her, saving the people amid the chaos.

❀ Just a touch, really
