Lord Jiu's Cherished Captive

She is Qi Xi, a wild, untamed young woman who roams the shadows, a top-tier rebel with a fierce spirit.

With no memories of anything before the age of seven and nothing but courage in her heart, she sets out.

She pursues a big shot for a thousand miles over a roast duck, and one gunshot throws half the city into chaos.

In the most dangerous forbidden zone, she goes against the grain, infiltrating her sworn enemy's estate.

She dyes her flamboyant blond hair, disguises herself as a mediocre maid, and shamelessly flirts and recklessly courts death.

He is Ye Shang, the forbidden, obsessive emperor of the dark, who holds the world in his hands.

Cold-blooded and heartless, pathologically fastidious, he has never had a weakness.

Yet the moment Qi Xi enters his world, he falls for her at first sight, consumed by an obsession that sinks to his very bones.

A wager. Three months to win her heart.

He feeds her a secret poison, holds her life in his hands, and traps her step by step, obsessively pressing her to marry him:

“Three months. I'll wait for you to willingly become my wife and bear my heir.”

Defiant and stubborn, she flirts back in every way she can and sneers disdainfully:

“Men over twenty-five have never been my type.”

Everyone says Ninth Master is cold and ruthless, with power over all.

Only for her does he sheathe his sharp edges and swallow his temper.

From forcefully keeping her captive at their first meeting to indulging her in every way once he is deeply in love.

She arrives bearing the secrets of her past and old blood-feuds.

She seems frivolous and vengeful, but beneath it all, she is wounded and alone.

He knows she comes with hatred in her heart and is waiting for a chance to escape.

Yet he willingly falls into the abyss she has opened, unable to turn back, unable to love anyone but her.
