↓, Synopsis, ↓

[Gentle, rebellious young noblewoman x cold-faced, ruthless power minister]

Su Xi transmigrated into the notorious eldest princess, rumored to be sinister, cruel, violent, murderous, and so infamous that everyone feared her terrible reputation.

Lu Jing An, the youngest powerful chancellor of the imperial court, was cold and calculating, a master strategist who never overlooked a detail.

Everyone knew he had no interest in women, yet he was forced to spend his wedding night with this infamous eldest princess.

When she first arrived, she saw the chancellor kneeling on the ground in his torn wedding clothes, his back straight as a willow. Even in such a wretched state, he had lost none of his elegance and poise.

He had a handsome face, but his very bones were steeped in suspicion and distrust.

To avoid arousing suspicion, she gritted her teeth and lashed him again. Unexpectedly, her whip knocked over an oil lamp and set her skirt on fire.

He swiftly kicked a jug over to put out the flames, his movements as graceful as a figure in a painting. Yet his gaze was still as a frozen pond. "Your Highness, you might want to... hold that whip steady."

Su Xi: I'm in danger!!!

Lu Jing An had always thought his life was destined to be filled with schemes and revenge.

He hated the eldest princess, not only for her cruelty and viciousness, but also for the humiliation she had inflicted on him.

Who could have guessed that everything would change on their wedding night, and that things would keep spiraling out of control afterward?

As she forced a pill down his throat, he clamped a hand around her wrist and sneered. "If Your Highness wants to kill your husband, there's no need for this."

He had no idea it was medicine for stomach pain.

On a bitterly cold snowy night, he, who never touched alcohol, got drunk by the stone table in the courtyard and clutched her sleeve, murmuring in bewilderment, "Your Highness... what is it you want from me?"

It turned out she had no ulterior motive. She was simply warm by nature.

When she turned her gaze elsewhere again, he, who had always been calm and composed, was consumed by jealousy.

He broke into her room in the dead of night, seized her hand and pressed it against an old scar. His voice was vicious, but his eyes were rimmed with red. "Could this body of mine... buy me a little of Your Highness's affection?"

The next moment, he knelt meekly on the ground, his eyes brimming with tears, his lowered voice full of sobs.

"Your Highness, please look at me..."

"Will you?"

In the end, the far-sighted master strategist bent his back and willingly became the most obedient piece on her chessboard.

>>>>Next novel: Her Little Actor GB

[Gentle, obsessive, sickly beauty x broken, alluring substitute actor]

Yu Wan is the most doted-on little princess of the Yu Kingdom, but she is bedridden with chronic illness and reliant on medicine.

The only thing keeping her alive is her fixation on the missing young heir of the Marquis's household.

At their first meeting backstage, Su Zi Jin was being forced to sign a confession.

The young man was born with an alluring charm, but his phoenix eyes were so pure that she wanted to be the one to sully them.

She couldn't be bothered with the matter. He was just another actor trying to attach himself to the powerful.

She didn't see how the actor would rather risk disfigurement than submit. The eyes that were usually so flirtatious now held only a ruthless resolve to take his enemies down with him.

Su Zi Jin had been in an opera troupe for as long as he could remember.

The troupe owner said he was born with a servile nature and had a face made to serve others.

Before the show that day, the troupe owner issued his final ultimatum.

He forced himself to finish singing, then heard a voice from a private room on the second floor: "I want that actor."

Of all people, it was her who took him away from that hell.

Yu Wan treated him wonderfully, surrounding him with every luxury, yet she always said the cruelest things in the gentlest voice.

"Do you know why I chose you?"

"Because you have a face just like his."

She never looked him in the eye.

But he discovered that the more convincingly he imitated that man, the more tenderly she looked at him.

He couldn't help losing himself in it. He sang the operas she liked again and again, until his voice was hoarse and his throat hurt.

Even if it meant becoming someone completely unlike himself, he was happy to do it.

Until one day, he accidentally knocked over her keepsake box and saw a portrait of a little green snake at age nine, along with a theater ticket.

Absurd...

This feeling... hurts far more than the troupe owner's whip.

The person he had been desperately imitating was himself as a boy...

The door creaked open.

"Who said you could touch that? Put it down!"

His face wore an innocent look, and a mad, bewitching smile bloomed at his lips.

"So this is what I looked like at nine..."

"I was really cute."

"No wonder... the princess likes him."
