The Sixth Prince, Xie Cheny you, is ruthless, vicious, and unpredictable. After falling gravely ill, he gains the ability to see how much time he has left to live. As he watches his remaining lifespan dwindle toward zero, Xie Cheny you grows more and more irritable.
Then one day, the Imperial Preceptor brings Yangyang back from a nunnery, where she had been practicing as a lay Buddhist. When they first meet, Xie Cheny you holds a bloodied knife to Yangyang's throat. "If you're afraid to die, stay away from me."
Xie Cheny you never expected Yangyang to truly have no fear of death. That night, she sleepwalks into his bed and cuddles up to him, cooing, "Kiss me."
That same night, after she kisses him, Xie Cheny you sees his lifespan increase by three days.
Later, Xie Cheny you pins her against the wall, trying to stockpile more time. But when he kisses Yangyang, his lifespan drops by ten days. When he refuses to feed her, it drops by thirty days...
Xie Cheny you: What the hell am I supposed to do with this?
On the day Yangyang leaves the nunnery, the abbess tells her, "Think of it as doing a good deed. When he dies, you can come back and continue your practice." But the Sixth Prince is terrifying, so Yangyang spends every day chanting sutras and praying for protection.
She has no idea she sleepwalks, let alone that she does all sorts of reckless things.
Yangyang plays it safe by day and sneaks into his bed to take advantage of him at night. Gradually, Xie Cheny you treats her better and better, giving her all the best food and fun things. Yangyang: Is the Sixth Prince fattening me up so he can slaughter me later? TAT
Then one night, Yangyang wakes up to find a man lying beside her. Xie Cheny you casually draws her into his arms. "You're awake?"
Yangyang bolts in fright, but the man insists she take advantage of him. He won't let her leave unless she does...
Later, Yangyang looks at her growing belly. "Is it too late to become a nun now?"
Xie Cheny you presses her against the imperial throne. "You can't become a nun. How about becoming the empress?"
The female lead has never been a nun. The blurb has been screenshotted and saved on Weibo.
