Lin Mengqiu was reborn in the year she came of age. Shen Che, heir to the Prince of Nanyang and the man who had once saved her, was crippled in both legs by a vicious plot. The refined young nobleman became a dreaded villain, despised by everyone. His temperament changed completely, and his moods became unpredictable. After he had tortured four successive brides to death, her eldest sister was next in line to marry into the prince’s household. So, the day before the wedding, Lin Mengqiu slipped into the bridal chamber and saved her sister, then put on the wedding dress and climbed into the bridal sedan herself. No one knew that this cripple, whom everyone thought cruel and violent, was her guardian angel, the benefactor she had yearned for all her life. * After the wedding, Lin Mengqiu worked every day to keep her secret safe and earnestly played the part of her gentle, virtuous “older sister.” When her husband beat someone, she had to pretend to be frightened while cleaning up the mess. When the elders wanted to give her husband concubines, she had to graciously accept them. She hid her real self in a little notebook. “Light rain today. My husband went out and got soaked all alone. My heart aches. I want to hug him so badly.” “Cloudy today. My husband looked so handsome beating people up, just as mighty as he was when he was little!” “Sunny today. Mother sent my husband a maid. She actually flirted with him! Boo hoo, bad woman, stay away from my husband.” Today... it seemed her secret identity had been discovered, and her notebook too! Before Lin Mengqiu could escape, Shen Che blocked her by the desk in his wheelchair. In a hoarse voice, he fixed her with an unpredictable gaze and asked, “Tell me, what do you like about me?” An unpredictable, sickly-sweet villain x a sweet, clever girl who can act and deceive, and wants to protect her benefactor One-on-one, both leads sexually inexperienced; the male lead’s legs will recover.
