The Crown Prince's Bedchamber Maid Wants to Reach the Heavens

Xu Yan was born a wealthy heiress, but ended up as the Crown Prince's concubine-in-waiting in the cold palace. At first, she planned to just give up and coast.

But seeing that the Crown Prince was even more of a slacker than she was left her unable to eat or sleep, so she rolled up her sleeves and got to work.

Xu Yan rubbed an onion in her eyes, and instantly burst into tears: "Your Highness, please pull yourself together! I can't go on without you!"

She was gentle and considerate, clever and courageous, and cared nothing for fame or fortune, willing to be his nameless, unacknowledged concubine.

Moved by her, the Crown Prince became convinced that she loved him desperately. He regained his resolve and decided to fight for his career again, for her sake.

On the day he reclaimed his position, assassins attacked him, and Xu Yan accidentally took a blade meant for him.

As the Crown Prince stared at her in shock and anguish, they both plunged off a cliff.

They were transported back to the modern world.

The wealthy heiress was back, and Xu Yan was happy again!

She kicked the stunned Crown Prince away without a moment's hesitation.

The Crown Prince gritted his teeth and demanded, "Didn't you say you could never love anyone but me in this life?"

Xu Yan swirled her glass of red wine, stood in her high heels, and held her chin high. "You believed me when I said that? It was all an act."

Worn down by modern life, the Crown Prince was a complete wreck. He swallowed his pride and turned to her for help.

He served her tea, came whenever she called, and slept on the hallway floor. In the end, he took a knife for the heroine during a home invasion.

As Xu Yan stared at him in shock and confusion, they were struck by an electric shock and collapsed.

And then the two of them were transported back to the ancient world.

Reader's Guide:

1. The blurb should make it clear enough: the Crown Prince has to fall in love first.

2. The heroine is heartless early on, but not a bad person. The Crown Prince is never a bad person, and from beginning to end, he loves only the heroine and has no one else.

3. Only the heroine is guaranteed not to suffer. No such promise for anyone else.

4. A simple, beginner-friendly writing style, not packed with quotable lines. An alternate history with no research into specific dynasties. More to come.
