1v1. Proud, headstrong princess x devoted, jealous puppy-like young man. The heroine is three years older than the hero.
Jiang Wuyou, the esteemed eldest princess of Nanjiang, was pushed into the water by her consort's concubine after one careless misstep. While unconscious, she seemed to travel to a strange world that its people called the twenty-first century. After waking up, she punched the scumbag and kicked the wicked woman. Having learned her lesson, she wondered why she should give up an entire forest for one tree. So she decided to follow her grandaunt's example, keep three thousand handsome men, and admire all the beauties under heaven.
On her way out of the city to clear her head, a breathtakingly handsome man, gravely wounded, fell from the sky. Jiang Wuyou decided this was heaven's gift and immediately chose him as her first beau!
Who could have known that when the handsome man woke, his face would turn bright red and his phoenix eyes flash with fury as he refused her? "Don't touch me, or I'll kill you!" Jiang Wuyou waved a hand, the corners of her mouth curving up. "But how can I apply medicine to you without touching you? Besides, a man should feel honored to be chosen by me."
The handsome man was so furious he nearly died on the spot...
Looking at the beautiful young man, both embarrassed and furious, Jiang Wuyou decided she liked him. Taming a puppy-like young man was the most fun. What exactly was a puppy-like young man, anyway? Jiang Wuyou fell into deep thought.
One day, Jiang Wuyou happened upon a talented scholar from Jiangnan whom her steward had brought in. Before she could say a word, her own puppy pulled her away and pinned her against the wall. "You can touch me. Just don't look at anyone else, okay?" This time, not only did his delicate face turn red, his fair ears flushed pink too.
Jiang Wuyou thought it wouldn't be so bad to spend the rest of her life with just her puppy, so she planned to dismiss the handsome men in her household. But one day, her puppy disappeared without a trace. Jiang Wuyou, who had thought she'd tamed him, was instantly left feeling lost and empty. Men were all the same, absolute scoundrels!
Xiao Zai was the crown prince of Beixiao, born to wealth and privilege. Who could have known that after falling on hard times, he would end up as a handsome companion in the eldest princess's residence? He swore that one day he would trample Nanjiang and make its eldest princess, Jiang Wuyou, his cleaning maid!
But circumstances were against him. To recover from his injuries and escape Nanjiang, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and use his good looks to please Jiang Wuyou. He accompanied her to admire flowers, go on outings, sample all the delicacies in the capital, and drink with her while cursing her scumbag ex. Gradually, he began to find every man in the princess's residence except himself an eyesore. What was he supposed to do?
At last, he returned to Beixiao and inherited the throne. Thinking of Jiang Wuyou again, he wanted nothing more than to hold her in the palm of his hand, so that she would have eyes and a heart for no one but him.
When the new emperor of Beixiao took the throne, he sent envoys to ask for a marriage alliance on his behalf. The requested bride was none other than the renowned eldest princess, Jiang Wuyou! The people of Nanjiang gaped in disbelief, profoundly shaken and utterly impressed. They all began to wonder whether the new emperor of Beixiao had some unusual tastes.
To her surprise, Jiang Wuyou, sent away in a marriage alliance, discovered that her puppy had shown up again! He took her hand and said plaintively, "Now you can't look at other men anymore."
There is no such thing as taming someone. Love is about two people choosing each other.
