The Young Master Is Bewitched

She is the legitimate daughter of a marquis's household, blessed with beauty and talent, graceful and refined, her radiant loveliness as dazzling as a peony in full bloom.

Yet she is cold-hearted by nature and never lets a slight go unavenged. If no one comes after her, she'll go after someone herself. She has nothing better to do, after all.

He is the ailing Crown Prince of the dynasty, compassionate and merciful, renowned for his virtue, and so full of pity for all living beings that he seems like a Buddha's disciple descended to earth.

Yet he is ruthless, cruel, and cold-blooded, guilty of every wicked deed under the sun, while everyone insists he is the most innocent person alive.

The two of them should have had nothing to do with each other, but she accidentally discovers his true nature. And so, she goes from being the hidden hand controlling the winds and clouds behind the scenes in the marquis's household to a poor little thing he can drag along to watch the action at any moment.

He gloats as he smooths things over: “Be good and do as I say, and I shall grant you a husband.”

And then she becomes the Crown Princess.

Damn it, what did she ever do to deserve this?

The noble, aloof Crown Prince, a paragon of icy restraint, suffers from a peculiar ailment called being overly fussy. He's fallen for a girl, but openly treats her with utter disdain while secretly plotting to make her his.

Miss Shen is arrogant, domineering, and notorious. Even though she's beautiful, people avoid her like the plague.

Yet the Crown Prince is bewitched by her. He goes to every length to marry her, then indulges her beyond all reason and dotes on her to an outrageous degree.

A bright, beautiful moon has fallen into a foul ditch, leaving countless people beating their breasts in despair.

Miss Shen: ...So you're saying she got the better end of the deal?

A beautiful, wickedly charming girl versus a cold, refined, deceptively dark Crown Prince.

Miss Shen lazily and carelessly stirs up trouble, while the Crown Prince keeps up his proper facade and stays dark to the very end. What a closet romantic.

One-on-one romance, doting love story, feel-good power fantasy.
