In the heart of tyrannical England, a legend is not born from glory, but from the ashes of a stolen life. When Sir Robert of Locksley, a noble knight, is falsely declared dead and his lands seized by his usurping brother, Prince John, he vanishes into the depths of Sherwood Forest. Emerging as the outlaw Robin Hood, he becomes a phantom of justice, a symbol of hope for the oppressed, his band of Merry Men a thorn in the side of the corrupt regime. But Robin's rebellion is fueled by a secret more dangerous than any arrow: a forbidden, all-consuming love for Richard, his brilliant strategist and husband. Their fight for a stolen kingdom becomes a desperate battle to protect their sacred bond. When Richard is captured and tortured in the Tower of London, Robin makes a choice that shatters his own soul: he trades a kingdom for his husband's life. The reunion that follows is not one of celebration, but of painful healing, as Robin vows to erase the stain of the Prince's violation with a love fierce enough to scorch the earth. Their war culminates in a daring infiltration of a royal castle, where Richard, reclaiming his power, delivers the final, fatal blow to Prince John. Pardoned by the returned King Richard, the couple are granted the very titles they fought against-Sheriff and Guardian of the North. But peace is a gilded cage, and the call of the wild, the echo of the legend, is a siren song they cannot ignore. As a new rebellion threatens the kingdom, they must ride to war once more, not as outlaws, but as the seasoned, heartbroken rulers who have learned that the greatest battles are not fought for a crown, but for the love that makes a man a king.

Before marrying Silas, Joyce had only met him three times. A marriage of convenience, a secret agreement, for a term of three years. She's fresh off a heartbreak — the man she chased for years told her they "weren't a good match." Silas has his own baggage: rumor says he's still hung up on a white moonlight who happens to look just like Joyce. So that's all she is. A substitute. ** In the second year of their marriage, on Joyce's birthday, she drank too much and, in front of everyone, tugged on his tie, pinning him underneath her: "You look... a lot like my husband." The Thorne family's second master, known for being rational and unfeeling, was flustered by her that night. He leaned in close to her ear and coaxed in a low voice, "Be good." The next day Joyce woke up to find her lips were swollen. This… Who did this! When she went to question him, she discovered Silas's lip was bitten. He stared at her and said slowly, "You crossed the line first." ** The scandal leaked. At a party, her ex-boyfriend stepped in: "She's mine. Who dares talk?" Then Silas walked in. The room went silent. "Yours? Since when?" "Joyce, tell me. Whose are you?" So much for the secret marriage. So much for being a substitute. This was supposed to be fake… wasn't it?

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
