Yun Ling was a humble little palace maid. She had a secret: she knew that the Sixth Prince, currently confined to the Cold Palace, was destined to be the future Crown Prince. To avoid misfortune, she volunteered to take care of him in the Cold Palace. The Sixth Prince, Xie Jue, was cruel, ruthless, and possessed a violent temper. He was suspicious and guarded towards her, constantly mocking and threatening her. But no matter how he treated her, she remained by his side, diligently serving him without complaint. "What do you want?" he asked coldly. Yun Ling gently coaxed, "I only wish for Your Highness's well-being. Your Highness's wishes are also my wishes." Xie Jue scoffed, "A lowly person, using sweet words to deceive." Yun Ling didn't mind and continued to care for him with utmost devotion and consideration. When he ascended to the East Palace, becoming the heir apparent, second only to the Emperor, she used his influence to escape her own misfortune and seek revenge. Then, she vanished without a trace in a blaze of fire. - Zezhou, thousands of miles away from the capital. Yun Ling worked as a female tutor, teaching court etiquette to the daughter of a minor official. Hearing that a carefree Prince had arrived from the capital, she feared being recognized and wrote a letter to resign. But she was informed that the Prince was merely passing through and had already left, and she was asked to continue teaching. A young servant led Yun Ling to the courtyard. As she pushed open the door, a blizzard swept in, covering the standing man with a blanket of silver. His face was cold and stern, radiating an aura of frost. He approached her step by step, "For three whole years, I've finally found you." "I'll make you my Crown Princess. Don't run away again, or I really will strangle you." __ Her sweet words were all to coax him; once you start coaxing, you must continue. ML:mad-dog temper, hopelessly in love, unhinged. FL: resilient, and strategic.

When Mi Wu returned from the countryside to the Marquis's residence, everyone mocked her. They said she was shameless, too seductive, unfit for the palace, and destined for failure. But she was chosen. Very soon she became the emperor's closest companion, the woman he could not leave for even a night. They laughed that she had no title, that she was nothing but a passing toy. Surely he would grow tired of her. Yet the emperor's desire only deepened. Even the sixth prince Cui Shu, the most trusted of all, was expelled for daring to cross her. When Cui Shu later seized the throne, the world was certain Mi Wu's end had come. But one decree shattered every doubt. Cui Shu named her empress. The court was left stunned, unable to speak. --- The first time Cui Shu saw her, she was punishing servants-wild, defiant, untamed. The second time, she danced under the moon-soft, dazzling, almost unreal. The third time, she rested on his lap-pitiful, tender, begging for care. Mi Wu was temptation itself, beauty laced with danger. Cui Shu knew her heart held schemes, yet he was drawn closer, consumed by her. He vowed to make her his, but after she used him, she turned away and became the emperor's favorite instead. Her beauty was no longer a gift. It became knives, piercing deeper and deeper into Cui Shu's heart. (Scheming Beauty × Possessive Male Lead) Warnings: 1. The heroine is beautiful, but ruthless. 2. This is not a "revenge face-slapping" story. The focus is on romance, intrigue, and scheming. 3. Set in a fictional world. Neither main character is kind or innocent.

Wei Ying lost her memory, but at least she still had a husband who seemed perfect in every way. Xie Lin was tall, handsome, and decisive in public-yet behind closed doors, he was gentle, attentive, and full of charm, even more alluring than the men described in romantic tales. Later, when her memories returned, she slapped him across the face in front of everyone. After they separated, Wei Ying thought that would be the end of it-he would go back to being the untouchable noble heir, and she would return home to live freely and happily. She never expected him to keep pursuing her. One moment, he stood at the hunting grounds, dazzling in his fine clothes and commanding presence; the next, he avoided the crowd, bent his tall frame before her, and took her hand to press it against his cheek. Like a proud yet easily tamed beast, he said softly, almost pleading, "Hit me." - Xie Lin had been scolded by Wei Ying countless times. At first, he thought it was because she despised him. Later, he realized she didn't only scold him when she was angry. She did it when she was being affectionate too-sometimes even when she was feeling good. The worst part was that he enjoyed it. - Notes: 1. A proud young noble who willingly becomes a lovesick fool × a spoiled, straightforward girl who's an expert at "training" her man. 2. Heavy on romance, with a long teasing and flirtation phase, lighthearted and drama-free. 3. The male lead doesn't enjoy being scolded-he just loves the female lead, so he enjoys everything she does, even when she's bossy or sulky. 4. The story shows both perspectives: not only the heroine's feelings but also the male lead's lovestruck, head-over-heels point of view.
