【Background fiction】
[abo theme, A has no pendant]
Flirting without knowing pure love alpha × gentle and kind omega
Jiang Yuchu × Xia Yirou
Summary of the emotional line: Jiang Zhi flirted with Xia in the early stage, and Xia flirted with Jiang in the later stage.
(probably longer period of ambiguity)
Business line summary: Gradually develop, but with golden fingers, the development is generally smooth.
————————————————————————
When he woke up, Jiang Yuchu was shocked to find that she had passed through
That’s fine
The level of economic development here is lagging behind, decades away from the level of economic development in the world she lived in. (The background is completely fictitious, everything serves the plot)
Not only that,
The people here are divided into six genders: male, female × alpha, omega, beta.
This is also acceptable
Who can tell her why she dresses like a scumbag
The original body has a bad personality, does not do a proper job, spends a lot of money, and abuses after drinking…
The ex-wife hates her, the daughter is afraid of her, and she was kicked out of the house by her parents (originally made by herself)
Unbearable!
Really: the beginning is the “peak”!
See how the “scumbag” reversed the market and reached the pinnacle of life, with a bumper harvest in career and love
The heroine has golden fingers and brings good luck.
—————————————————————
Before we were together: Xiaoxia didn’t want to care about Xiaojiang
Xiaoxia: “Don’t touch me”
“leave me alone”
“I do not want”

After being together:
Xiaoxia: “Good morning kiss~”
“Good night kiss~”
“Farewell Kiss~”
—————————————————————————————————
Xia Yirou: One day in the future, will you suddenly leave me?
Jiang Yuchu: Fool~ There will be no such day. Wherever you are, I will be there.
Home is where you are
—————————————————————————————————
Xia Yirou: It’s you who made me believe that there is really love in this world.
Jiang Yuchu: Even if there are thousands of mountains and rivers, I will come to you
I will go against my nature, against my instincts, and love you forever – “The Selfish Gene” book review

He is Xi Liang’s legendary emperor: a decisive and ruthless king; a man of supreme wisdom; a cunning strategist.

According to legend, he once conferred the love meant for the three thousand concubines in his harem onto one woman, while the world watched in envy.

According to legend, he once executed a hundred people for her, turning the palace into a purgatory overnight.

According to legend, he ultimately sentenced that same woman to death by execution…

A conspiracy that swept through the country resulted in her tragic end. This lifetime seems to be a repeat of her past life. Can she escape the clutches of fate to attain true love in this life? In both lives, she was the Emperor’s wife, but is that ruthless man really her true love mandated by Heaven?

Did she really die, just like that?

In the end, beyond the veil of lies and mysteries, who exactly was she? Was she a woman that he truly loved, or was she merely a chess piece to be used in his political machinations?

The stories passed onto later generations remain fraught with conflicting opinions.
