Foolish, sweet, and adored by everyone, her match is a gloomy man with an overwhelming possessive streak
Novel Blurb:
When she was little, Si Qingying moved with her mother into Prince Rui's estate after her mother remarried.
Because her mother was favored, Prince Rui loved her too, treating her wonderfully, almost as if she were his own daughter.
Prince Rui even arranged a marriage for her, to Cui Changyan, the eldest young master of the Duke of Dingguo's household.
On her wedding day, she suddenly realized that she was living inside an angsty novel she had read in her previous life.
The original heroine, Cui Changyan, had been raised as a boy. She passed the imperial examination as the third-ranked candidate and entered the court, seemingly rising smoothly through the ranks to become chief minister, enjoying a life of boundless glory. In reality, she was abused in body and spirit by powerful men from every faction, then kept in a little golden cage for their humiliating games.
The supporting character, Si Qingying, was merely one part of their games, a tragic figure through and through. Kept in the dark, she spent half her life alone in an empty chamber, until a powerful man, crazed with jealousy, threw her into a pit of snakes...
At that moment, Si Qingying looked at Cui Changyan, dressed in brilliant red wedding robes and breathtakingly handsome. Remembering her original self's tragic fate, her vision went black and she nearly fainted.
No, she couldn't just sit around and wait for death...
She had to divorce him!

Later, trapped in a cushioned chair, she felt Cui Changyan's long, elegant fingers gently lift her chin. "My lady, why are you always trying to run away? Do you hate being tied up?"
Si Qingying lowered her eyes to the silk ribbons binding her wrists and stammered timidly, "N-no..."
Cui Changyan's gaze darkened, and his prominent Adam's apple bobbed...
Si Qingying thought: Oh heavens, how did the heroine turn into a man?
