Reborn as a Noblewoman, Forced to Be Redeemed

After the college entrance examination, Cui Xianyue unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of an ancient noblewoman. She has a prominent family, wants for nothing, and can be called a transmigrator with a top-tier status.

Knowing that being unconventional won't work, she carefully cultivates a good reputation in hopes of securing a good marriage.

And she gets her wish: by imperial decree, she becomes the primary consort of Yuan Qianche, the emperor's second legitimate son.

Cui Xianyue only wants to have a child and live out her life peacefully, but this Sixth Prince refuses to do things by the book.

On their wedding night, he coldly refuses to share a bed.

When she pays her respects, he coldly rejects her request to have a baby.

While managing the household, he stands like a post, radiating cold air.

Afterward, he drags her off to watch acrobats, picnic and barbecue at a country estate, ride horses and bask in the sun in the woods, and pick plum blossoms and build snowmen on snowy days.

Cui Xianyue helplessly reminds him, "Your Highness would be better off focusing on official duties instead of spending your time on me."

Yuan Qianche refuses and insists, "I'm saving you."

Cui Xianyue: "I'm doing perfectly well. I don't need Your Highness to save me."

Yuan Qianche: "You're just putting on a brave face."

Yuan Qianche binds to a Salvation System. The System tells him he can only survive if he raises Cui Xianyue's salvation score to 100.

He thinks he'll be saving a tragic girl, but finds that Cui Xianyue lives comfortably, lacks for nothing, and is even the princess consort appointed to him by imperial decree.

Yuan Qianche: Easy peasy. Be nice to her, but have boundaries.

So...

On their wedding night, Yuan Qianche acts cold while internally shrieking like a groundhog: "I'm going to get arrested!", Salvation score +10

When she pays her respects, Yuan Qianche puts on a cold face while ranting internally: "Making a minor have a baby is a backward custom!", Salvation score +10

While managing the household, Yuan Qianche stands stiffly in place, inwardly thrilled: "This is definitely going to raise her salvation score!", Salvation score -5

Yuan Qianche: ??? This isn't right!

Much later, when Yuan Qianche realizes the salvation score measures the restoration of Cui Xianyue's modern self-identity, he opens his trembling mouth and says, "If the first and last digits are the same..."

Cui Xianyue: "Then the middle digit is the same."

As the words fall, the two of them freeze.
