As a foodie girl who loved spicy food, Liu Zaixi was (literally)辣死了 during a challenge to eat an Indian ghost pepper. According to normal plot development, she transmigrated, and what do you know, she was once again the unloved one. What else could she do but make do?
However, heaven helps the heroine! Liu Zaixi discovered the inheritance left by her deceased mother. It would be inappropriate not to take it, so she immediately kicked out her渣爹 (scumbag father) and took her loyal little maid to the capital.
Her only purpose in going to the capital was to let ancient people taste some chili peppers and open a spicy food restaurant! Her opening day was a complete flop. No problem, guided by a handsome man, she found her way.
But now this handsome man says he's a prince and wants to marry her? What's going on? Liu Zaixi understood. This person is a lunatic (not really).
Later, Liu Zaixi learned that this person's name was Qiu Wuji, and he was indeed a prince. Liu Zaixi complained, "This character setting is too common. Another invincible, high-and-mighty figure. But there's one contrasting point that's quite endearing: this prince loves spicy food."
Since it's mutually beneficial, let's reluctantly get married. But why are you confessing after marriage? Wasn't it supposed to be an act? Liu Zaixi felt a line of black sweat. What to do when she feels deceived?
That day, Qiu Wuji was just passing by when he saw the girl energetically promoting her wares. Her smile was as radiant as a flower; no, even a flower would be three points inferior. Qiu Wuji's heart seemed to be leaping out of his chest, but he only thought he was hungry.
After entering the shop, Qiu Wuji feigned reserve and pointed out the girl's mistakes. At their second meeting, Qiu Wuji proposed marriage, expecting it to go as planned, but he was rejected. Qiu Wuji questioned his charm for the first time.
But it didn't matter. Qiu Wuji had plenty of strength and means. After marriage, the strange feeling intensified. Qiu Wuji looked at the girl's sleeping face and understood that this was called 'heartbeat' (falling in love).
