Yuan Xian, the County Princess of Changhua, considers herself beautiful and noble, and she always has to outshine everyone else. Most of the capital's spoiled young nobles can't stand her, and they all hope she'll eventually trip herself up.
The heavens finally answered their prayers. Her fiance abandoned her, and she was charged with a murder. Everyone turned against her.
More importantly, Gu Xi was presiding over her case.
This powerful favorite of the emperor was as ruthless as the King of Hell, famously cold and desireless. He would never be swayed by her beauty.
Sure enough, the arrogant Yuan Xian turned as meek as a quail the moment she met him.
And it wasn't for any other reason.
At first glance, she recognized Gu Xi as the boy she'd abducted in her youth, captivated by his good looks.
Fortunately, fortunately, it seemed he'd forgotten those absurd events from five years ago.
She was happy to pretend not to recognize him, while continuing to seek out handsome, well-behaved young men behind his back.

Gu Xi had been cold and indifferent since childhood, and few things could ever make him lose his composure.
Except for the time in his youth when a shameless noblewoman harassed him for half a year. After doing everything he could to reject her, he could bear it no longer and fled in disgrace.
Years later, they met again. She had forgotten the past and was using the same shallow, laughable tactics on other men.
How ridiculous.
Gu Xi suddenly felt like holding a grudge.
He broke off her engagement and cut off her escape routes. Just as she had once done to him, he pinned her down on the bed without mercy.
He would make her understand that when you do something wrong somewhere, you have to make it right there.
