[Powerful, Heroic Female Lead Yun Guang x Delicate, Beautiful Male Lead Fu Qing]

There was a mountain ghost on Mount Hua, ugly and violent-tempered. He proclaimed himself king and called himself Yun Guang.

At the foot of Mount Hua lived a prince, beautiful and gentle, as clear as the moon and a fresh breeze. His name was Fu Qing.

Fu Qing was the empress's adopted son, kept around to secure her position. With wolfish brothers before him and treacherous ministers behind, his childhood was full of hardship and misery.

One day, during Fu Qing's birthday banquet, the ministers came to offer their congratulations. But an unexpected incident occurred: an assassin appeared, intent on killing him. Fu Qing staggered about, the strong liquor having gone to his head. Unable to make out the path in the darkness, he stumbled and pitched forward

Right into the warm embrace of a stranger.

The place was dark and indistinct. Fu Qing was about to leave and apologize, but when he looked up, he saw a sickly, emaciated figure.

The person's face was deathly pale, his body as thin as a skeleton, and he looked consumptive. Yet his huge eyes gleamed with uncanny brilliance, sparkling with a cold light in the night.

Fu Qing was shocked. He had never seen anyone so ugly and thought he was looking at a ghost.

The ghost merely lifted a hand. With a flick of his finger, the assassin suddenly dropped dead.

Just before passing out, Fu Qing vaguely heard the frail youth say, "This man is beautiful and very much to my liking. Carry him back. We'll get married today."

Fu Qing: ? Did anyone ask what I think?

The crown prince had been abducted, and the people of the capital went wild. Rumors raced through the streets and alleys:

This is terrible! Their beautiful, delicate Crown Prince is going to be forced into marriage by a mountain ghost!!! The mountain ghost has become a lecherous ghost!

Reader's Guide:

1. Not a traditional dual-salvation story. Happy ending.

2. Just a simple romance. I'll add more if I think of anything.

3. Please, please, please add it to your collection!!!

[Story Blurb]

*The original male and female leads are not vilified. A heartless, cold-blooded maid x a beautiful, tragic prince with no golden finger who loves to cry.

Shi Yan is a miserable cannon-fodder character with no conscience and a bit of a scheming streak.

The System tells her to save the original story's sinister, obsessive, thoroughly evil second male lead. Shi Yan is troubled.

Compared with saving the second male lead, she'd much rather save her own miserable self.

To avoid being strangled to death by him, she fusses over him, pretends to be sincere, and puts on a show of devotion.

Your Highness is hungry? She'll prepare some food!

Your Highness is thirsty? She'll prepare a drink!

Your Highness is lonely tonight? She'll warm your bed!

Song Yu: ...His face darkens as he tells a certain someone to take her quilt and get lost.

Shi Yan: All right, then. I'll come again next time.

Song Yu resents her and hates her. For the sake of the original heroine, he disregards her safety and repeatedly puts her in danger.

Everyone says nobody cares about her, and she should leave that cold man as soon as possible. Why keep treating him well?

Yet on a snowy night, when they are ambushed and their lives hang by a thread, Song Yu cannot bear to see her die and tries to beg for a chance at survival for her:

"To me, she's nothing more than a stray cat or dog. Comparing her as a threat to the Dual Appearance Edict is overestimating her. This woman is so lowly she's not worth mentioning. Your Majesty, you've really miscalculated this time."

Shi Yan nods like a chick pecking at rice, quickly reads the situation, and kneels to beg for mercy:

"Prince Rui has lost all power. I beg Your Majesty to see the truth and show mercy by sparing an innocent person like me!"

Song Yu smiles bitterly.

"Have I never told you that I love you?"

"I love you. You have to remember me."

!!! Content Warnings:

1. The bonus chapter has a happy ending. This is important.

2. The author considers this a light, amateurish story, with simple prose and plot. Please decide whether to read based on your preferences.

3. The male lead is very beautiful and loves to cry. I don't know if anyone will dislike this, but I'll mention it here first.

4. Both leads have tragic lives. If you can't handle that, please drop the story.

5. I don't usually have any content warnings when I read, so I don't know what bothers everyone. If anything here offends you, please drop the story. If you've subscribed and want to yell at me, go ahead, but please make sure it has something to do with what you've read, hahaha.
