【An overthinking, emotionally tangled transmigrated heroine x a suspicious, overimaginative emperor】
- Mind-reading trope, misunderstandings all around, mostly sweet romance
**
Wang Yiyi transmigrated into the daughter of a minor fifth-rank official in the Jiuguang Kingdom. She entered the palace through the selection, was made a Talented Lady, and was sent to the most remote corner of Broken Jade Pavilion.
While everyone else entered the palace to compete for favor, she just wanted to lie flat. She spent her days eating and sleeping, striving to become the most invisible worker in the harem.
Her only problem was that the current emperor, Fu Yunjian, seemed to have a knack for catching her at exactly the wrong moment.
She complained inwardly about the emperor being late, and Fu Yunjian immediately put on a cold face. “How dare you.”
She lamented that she hadn’t gotten to eat the braised goose feet, and Fu Yunjian turned around and asked, “Who refuses to perform?”
The eunuch replied, “Your Majesty, it’s Talented Lady Wang.”
Wang Yiyi: ???

Fu Yunjian could hear a woman’s thoughts.
Her words were deferential and humble, but her thoughts were full of shocking, irreverent phrases. Things like “office drones,” “slacking off,” “overtime,” and “getting killed off.” He had never heard of any of them.
Every woman in the harem was racking her brains to win his attention. Only she was doing everything she could to hide in a corner.
Fu Yunjian was convinced this woman was deeply calculating.
The more she seemed to want nothing, the more she must be playing hard to get. The more she avoided him, the greater her schemes must be.
