Blurb:
Lu Heng transmigrates into a book. The moment he opens his eyes, he finds himself in the prison of the Northern Pacification Office. He's holding a torture baton and flogging someone, and the person beneath it is the novel's male lead.
Lu Heng: Holy crap?!
Xiao Chengyan lies face down on the bench, veins bulging on his forehead, yet he still manages to smile. There's something unnerving about that smile. "Lord Lu, you're quite something to look at, and you sure know how to hit someone, too."
"I hope we can pick up where we left off one day, my lord. I'd love to slowly discuss today's events with you."
Lu Heng: No need to continue this disastrous connection!
-
Lu Heng has become the original story's ruthless and heartless Assistant Commissioner of the Brocade Guards, a notorious devil in the Northern Pacification Office, infamous enough to stop children crying.
To survive, he has no choice but to put on the act of a sadistic, fiendish monster.
"My lord, this is your favorite form of torture. Why not do it yourself?"
Lu Heng toys with the iron brush in his hand and chuckles. "No need. I'm tired today. You can do it."
His inner monologue: Damn it, this twisted freak actually likes this inhuman torture!
"My lord, His Highness Prince Su is waiting for you in the office."
Lu Heng asks, confused, "Who is that?"
His subordinate whispers, "Your old flame."
Lu Heng: "..."
The original was already deranged, but did he really have to flirt with everyone, too?
-
Ever since that flogging, Xiao Chengyan has held a grudge against Lu Heng, constantly clashing with him.
But gradually, their rivalry takes on a different flavor.
By day, in front of others, the two trade barbs and refuse to yield. At night, Xiao Chengyan climbs through the window of the Lu residence, sits by the bed, and smiles brightly. "The spring nights are still chilly. I've come to warm your bed, Lord Lu."
Lu Heng: "Thanks, but absolutely not!"
