The Transmigrated Woman Who Was Abducted

In her senior year of college, Lu Zhizhi was on her way to look for an internship when she stepped into thin air and fell into an ancient world. She landed on Shen Qixian's newly acquired concubine, leaving the woman in a vegetative state. From then on, Lu Zhizhi was forced to take her place, becoming Shen Qixian's plaything. Lu Zhizhi thought that if she could wake the woman, she would make up for her mistake and regain her freedom. But on the day the woman awoke, when Lu Zhizhi asked to leave, Shen Qixian spun the dagger in his hand and said in a sinister voice, "A woman of mine, Shen Qixian's, will either sleep by my side for the rest of her life or be carried into my family's ancestral grave." Lu Zhizhi jumped into the deep lake without looking back. When she awoke again, her memories had stopped on the first day she arrived in this world. Back then, she had been innocent and carefree, like a spirited young deer in the wilderness, blundering into a world that wasn't hers, clumsy yet full of life. Shen Qixian had not seen her like that in a long time. Of course, Lu Zhizhi was pretending to have lost her memory. But Shen Qixian didn't know that. He thought he finally had a chance to mend the rift between them. He pretended they were meeting for the first time, hiding his sharp claws and putting on a hypocritical mask. He got to know her all over again, fell in love with her, and gently won her heart step by step. He thought this would let him keep Lu Zhizhi by his side forever. Until that merciless stab struck his heart. From then on, whenever it rained, the scar she left on his heart would ache faintly. * Shen Qixian was the emperor's youngest son, born to a favored consort and peerless in status. To help his father quell a grave threat, he concealed his identity and entered the martial world. At a tightly guarded manor, Lu Zhizhi fell from the sky. Her origins were unknown, so naturally, she was treated as an assassin. The maid who was supposed to help cure his heat toxin had been injured because of her and was unconscious, so he had no choice but to take Lu Zhizhi as his bedmate. At first, he planned to kill her once everything was over. Later, he thought he might as well give her the title of a favored concubine. Later still, he actually wanted to marry her, to place the empress's throne before her and win her favor. But she wanted none of it. All she wanted was to go home, back to the world that belonged only to her, a place he could never set foot in, not even in a lifetime. * "I can't remember exactly when it began. Perhaps it was one morning when she woke with her head on my arm and smiled at me without a care in the world. Or perhaps it was one night when she dreamed she had returned home, and her tears dampened my chest." "My joys and sorrows gradually came to depend on her every move. When she cried, my heart gave a faint twinge. When she was happy, I smiled along with her." "This had never happened before. By the time I realized I loved her, there was no way to mend what was between us. She realized it too, so she gave me hope, then crushed it with her own hands." -- Shen Qixian Content warnings: Coercive love and a groveling pursuit after losing her. Happy ending. Both leads are inexperienced. The concubine mentioned in the blurb has a different explanation.
