A scheming beauty seduces a cold, powerful official, breaking his restraints. The cold official later goes insane.
Cui Yiluo possesses a stunning, opulent beauty with skin like jade and ice, but she lacks family backing and has endured hardships under her stepmother until the age of seventeen.
A marriage contract, with her beauty as a bargaining chip, is arranged by her stepmother to marry her off as a second wife to a sixty-year-old man.
But she has never admitted defeat.
After lodging with the Jiang family, she set her sights on the most noble and well-mannered man in Shengjing.
The Jiang family is influential, and the person in power is Jiang Yunjin, her nominal cousin. He is pure and upright, cautious and diligent, holding a high position and great power at twenty-one, with decisive actions.
He is the most proper and the most detached.
However, she is determined to break his decorum and draw him into lust.
But as her wedding date approaches, Jiang Yunjin still treats her with indifference.
Just as she was seeking an alternative path, a servant at a banquet discreetly offered her wine infused with a strange fragrance.
Cui Yiluo swirled the wine glass, a slight curl at her lips.
That night, the red curtains were disheveled, all propriety discarded, and the man softly moaned in her ear with restraint.
When dawn broke, Jiang Yunjin looked at her tear-filled eyes with a somber gaze and stated solemnly: "I will marry you."
Cui Yiluo successfully escaped her impending marriage as she wished. However, even after they married, Jiang Yunjin remained cold, except for in bed.
She advanced inch by inch, playing the part of a gentle woman, her heart solely focused on completely destroying his rules and making him fall.
Because she loved seeing him driven to desire, his breath unsteady, his eyes filled with longing.
But she knew clearly that apart from a few moments of desire, there was no affection between them.
Until the day she was intercepted on her way out of the capital.
A man, as tall and straight as bamboo, blocked the sunlight. His handsome, deep face, shrouded in shadow, was menacingly cold.
He slowly pressed her against the hard carriage wall, leaving her no room to retreat. His well-defined fingers lightly traced her cheek, and he said softly, "Where do you want to go, Ah Luo? Why not continue to deceive?"
"You wanted to abandon me for him back then, but in the end, you still chose me. Since you chose me, do you think you still have a chance to find him?"
Cui Yiluo completely destroyed his rules, but she never expected that after breaking free from the constraints of his discipline, he would be so ruthless beneath his outwardly cold facade.
The room door was locked, leading to extreme absurdity.
The doors and windows vibrated; Cui Yiluo was pressed against the door panel, enduring him.
The man's eyes held an unyielding, dark intensity. His voice, dark and hoarse, gripped her jaw, "Isn't this what you've always wanted?"

Next book opening: "Misfortune Spring Arrives," synopsis below, please collect:
Xu Lingyi has a close childhood friend. When she visits, she inevitably encounters her friend's elder brother.
Her friend's elder brother was enfeoffed as the heir to the Duke of Dingguo from birth. He has an arrogant personality. Each time he sees her, he merely nods lightly, rarely speaking, exuding immense pressure.
It is rumored that he is close to betrothing the Yang family's young lady.
One day, the Yang family's young lady approached her, asking for her help to dissuade the Duke of Dingguo's heir from marrying her.
Xu Lingyi: "I understand! I'm also very afraid of him."
Xu Lingyi kindly agreed to help.
On the day the Yang family's young lady became engaged to her intended, Xu Lingyi was completely relieved and happily congratulated her.
She also left after the matter was settled, her merit hidden.
That evening, someone climbed directly into her courtyard.
Xiao Zhun, the heir to the Duke of Dingguo, had always liked his sister's friend.
A young man's first love is always clumsy. The person he fancies only fears him; he didn't know how to gain her admiration.
It wasn't until she repeatedly disrupted his engagements with others that he disbelievingly realized—
She liked him too.
That day, when the Yang family's young lady got engaged, she seemed to have lifted a great weight from her heart. She was overjoyed when she congratulated him.
Xiao Zhun inexplicably saw a hint of envy in her eyes. Was it because someone else was engaged?
He tossed and turned all night, finally unable to control himself and climbed directly into his beloved's courtyard, decisively breaking through the thin veil between them.
"Tomorrow, I'll go ask His Majesty to bestow a marriage upon us."
Xu Lingyi: "Ah? Me?"
* Xu Lingyi: Breaths
* Xiao Zhun: She likes me, my manipulative tactics are amazing, what should our child be named?
* Clever and witty but emotionally obtuse girl x Strong, clumsy unrequited love, self-brainstorming young man
* Childhood sweethearts + a little pseudo-sibling love, leaning towards everyday sweet treats
* 1v1, dual C, the male lead has never liked anyone other than the female lead, and clearly refused engagements with others.
