"Serious Blurb"

In his previous life, someone used him as a pawn, and a massacre wiped out every trace of affection between them.

He went to war at the emperor's command. After traveling day and night, battered and wounded, he rushed back only to hear the joyous music of a wedding procession.

At the time, he was a young general celebrated for his military achievements, while she was the newly-wedded Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace.

His eyes reddened. He reclaimed his identity, and the dynasty changed hands. She ended her life with a cup of poison.

When everything began again, he was a young, ruthless young general, a jade-faced demon. She was a radiant, charming Second Miss, sweet and lovable, with a mouth full of nonsense.

Little by little, she taught him what love was. She trusted him and relied on him. On a night of fire and snow, she gently shielded his eyes.

She said, "Don't look. Let's go home."

Jiang Zhan had never thought he was a good person.

At least, that was how he saw himself in both his lives.

But the Second Miss of the Song family was always clinging to him. He was sick of those perpetually dewy eyes of hers, and sick of how she burst into tears at the slightest thing.

Later, Jiang Zhan learned that Song Tangtang had a very dull sense of pain. She had only felt pain twice in her previous life: once when he was gravely wounded, and once when the Song family was slaughtered.

She had sought death so readily, so decisively.

She was such a delicate little girl. Had it hurt her?

It never snowed in Yaoge, but that winter was truly too cold.

She stopped smiling, stopped talking, and stopped crying. She didn't want him anymore.

He staked everything, like a gambler with nowhere left to retreat, his eyes bloodshot from losing. He wanted her to live.

Even if she hated him. Even if she never loved him again.

"Silly Blurb"

The rich and beautiful Song Tangtang woke up one day to find herself transmigrated into a book, becoming the Second Miss of the Prime Minister's household, Song Tangtang, a frail young woman who wouldn't live long.

After half a year of crying and throwing herself into danger, Song Tangtang finally accepted the mystical idea that she had transmigrated into a book, having learned her lesson the hard way.

Other people who transmigrated into books knew the plot inside out. She'd only read halfway before transmigrating, and could barely remember that there was a hidden main villain in the story. She hadn't even paid attention to how she herself died. Second Miss went silent. Second Miss suffered. Second Miss regretted everything. Second Miss banged her head against the ground.

From then on, Second Miss set out to win over the sickly, tsundere main villain, constantly stirring up trouble and changing her approach.

"Oh, kind and brave Young Master Jiang, did you drop this pure and innocent Song Tangtang? This seductive little vixen Song Tangtang? Or this master of the art of sweet-talking Song Tangtang?"

Jiang Zhan said coldly, "Get away from me. Scram."

2.

Recently, that brain-damaged Second Miss from the Song residence has been clinging to me like a piece of gum, forcing me into marriage before falling in love with me, spouting nonsense, and acting like a drama queen...

But what can I do? I think I'm kind of into it?

#Tsundere-to-true-love face-slapping and adorable drama queen

#Please note: The heroine is doted on by everyone, has no golden finger, and is no naive pushover. The villain is a real villain.

The leads will regain their past-life memories later in the story. One-on-one romance throughout.

#Content warning: The secondary couple has an angst-heavy storyline later on. Past and present lives. One heroine.
