Synopsis

[ Warning: Mature Content 18+ ]

Having a HE with the Prince Regent of the enemy country.

▪▪▪

Li Zhao Yan, the fourth young lady of Prince Li's mansion runs away to pursue freedom after being betrayed by the brother she adored and loved.

Three months later, she stumbled upon a half-dead man on the verge of death. Not wanting to get involved, she turns away like any normal person would. Only, she did not expect that he would grab on her dress!

Zhao Yan ends up with the heavy responsibility of saving a life.

Her only request: Don't ever come back again, I beg of you!

Another two months later, he came back to pester her and she got taken advantage of.

Many more months later, she found herself married and with a little bun that looked like her and the man.

"We've been married for two years. Let's have a daughter this time."

"Your Highness, please mind your words. Little melon is barely two years old. He might get jealous..."

"Nonsense. He'll be more than happy to have a sibling."

"Your Highness, let's just divorce. Little melon is mine. You go find another woman to have a daughter with."

"This prince strongly disagrees with your proposal! This prince will not divorce! What other woman? You are my only woman!"

A fictional medium-burn romance set in a place and with culture similar to Ancient China.

This is the story of a man who walks a road filled with thorns and a woman whose only desire is freedom.

Reminding my readers that this book's rating is [No One 17 And Under Allowed] which means it contains mature content not suitable for young readers. Read at your own discretion. There is a warning for r ▪p e but this only happens once in the whole series and never again. It is mentioned but not written in detail.

There is no major misunderstandings between the characters. Face slapping is reduced to a minimum. This story starts off with a weak and slightly timid MC who later becomes stronger as the story progresses.

I only write happy endings

Nice story. The synopsis got me curious. So far, the story is good. I can't wait for MC to marry the ML and take revenge on her idiotic brother and cousin. Great job, author!

Your author Diem, writing a review for shameless promotion. [ Your author shamelessly trying to catch attention in the review section.] Here are the reasons why I wrote this here: 1. Mostly for Q and A. 2. To provide information about the book. 3. To warn people beforehand in case they get any other ideas. 4. To promote my book(yet again). 5. To satisfy the readers' curiosity. Q1: The main genre of the book? A: Historical Romance. MC is a young lady from a noble family. Story setting is set in a place and time similar to Ancient China. Q2: Sub-genre(s) of the book? A: Slice of Life and Family Drama. This book isn't that angsty like other webnovels. This book is written for fun and not really that serious which is why there is a slice of life tag. Family Drama for obvious reasons since the MC and ML's families are a bunch of---- Q3: Does this book have r-pe? A: Unfortunately yes. But it only happens once during the whole story. After that one time incident, I, your author, assure you that no main character or side character would be on the receiving end of this kind of abuse after that one time incident. Q4: How many chapters is this book supposed to have? A: This book is fast paced and shorter than my other books so it is probably around 200 to 300 chapters. Q4: Does this book have smut content? A: Maybe, maybe not. Who can tell? There is romance between the main characters but there might be chapters were implied s ▪ x is stated. I also wrote a short rant where all the warnings are stated. Q5: Does your book contain grammatical mistakes and misspelled words? A: Yes. My main language is not English which sometimes makes it hard for me to know whether I wrote it the right way or not but I will slowly correct them overtime. English is my third language. Grammar Nazis, be gentle. Please don't pressure me. Q6: How many chapters a week are you planning to release? A: It depends. Probably two to five chapters at most. I have another book that I am also working on which halves my attention. Q7: Are MC or ML overpowered characters? A: No, they aren't. They are both flawed people witch shortcomings in many areas. They may seem OP but in all actuality, they are just human beings with imperfections and are prone to make mistakes. Q8: Why did you make this book? A: This was suggested to me by a friend and we made a draft for fun until it escalated and turned into a novel. Q9: How many volumes is this book going to have? A: Three volumes at max just like my other books. I assure you, this book won't be as long as 1000 chapters like most novels in webnovel. I, your author, am not omnipotent. Q10: Do you accept criticisms? A: Yes. I do accept them so I know which part I can improve. We also know that there's a big difference between a review and a hate post so please be mindful. My heart is also fragile (White lotusALertshahasdj---) Also, please check out my other books. Click my profile if you want to read them.

Ah well, the ML is a decent human being, that much I can say. The author really did say that the MC is weak at first but she's a doctor and she isn't completely useless. With her kind and innocent personality, the ML who is prince regent fell for her. I'm interested how she would deal with her family who made her suffer. Also, what happened to her grandfather?

In case anyone asks, the ML is not a scumbag. He is a decent human being that knows how to apologize for his actions unlike those overbearing CEO from CNs. :)))

It's beautifully written. The MC cries a lot but she's strong in her own way. I mean, she manages to run away from her family and build her own medicine shop before meeting the ML so I guess that's admirable. And the reason for her crocodile tears is due to her pregnancy hormones

CN novel with cute and fluffy characters. I can already picture a happy ending. I can't wait for the bun to appear and to have some face slapping actions. There is rxpe which is disturbing but ML apologized and admitted to his mistakes. He is trying to redeem himself and treats MC very well

There is a lot of narration in this novel. There is some dog blood drama but for now, the story focuses on MC and ML meeting then their marriage. ML did the deed with her but he apologized. MC did not exactly forgive him immediately but she's too kind. I think that is also why ML fell for her.

i think this is a childcare story. Also, the MC is not an OP person since her personality is a little weak at the start of the story but she doesn't shy away from showing her skills. ML also treats her well
