Izabelle had underestimated the fire she thought she was going to play with tonight. But how could she ever have foreseen that the man she had happened to come across with does not play with just a small fire, but a whole inferno?

Excerpt:

“You going through this marriage with me might as well be like you digging your own grave. Because the moment you start to want more from me, I will divorce you. And the moment you break your promise and try to fight me… I will ruin you and break you apart completely. Mercilessly. You will regret ever meeting this devil tonight.” His threat was given in the same soft but cold voice.

But Elle did not even flinch. Her gaze never faltered either. This man was ruthless, and she knew that clearly. His eyes that moment promised nightmares and darkness without any promise of respite.

But no matter what he says now, it would still not change her decision. She truly had no other choice.

“I understand now…” she said quietly, steeling herself. “Since you don't trust that I will keep my word, how about we do this? You prepare the divorce documents beforehand now and I'll sign it. That way, once you decide to divorce me in the future, the papers would already have been signed and there would be no way I can trouble you about it. You would just need to send it to the lawyers and have it notarized.”

A heavy silence reigned before his quiet disbelieving laugh broke the silence.

“I'm at a loss for words, Princess Izabelle.” He looked wickedly amused. But then he started nodding in approval. “Fine, princess. I will marry you.”

Ning Buyi crossed over, and transmigrated into a stallion novel called “The Lover of the Prince of the Empire”.

The good news is that she is bound to the system and inherited a barren star; the bad news is that in the next plot, she will be wiped out by the prince who meets for the first time.

In order to save his life, Ning Buyi ran away overnight, preparing to stay away from the hero and heroine. However, she found that her soul was bound to the land of the barren star, and she couldn’t escape at all! When the barren star is judged to be “dead” by the interstellar judges, she will also be finished with it!

The planet she owns is on the verge of death, has been judged “abandoned” twice, and is now facing its final judgment.

Ning Buyi doesn’t want to die, she can only conscientiously build the planet.
When the boundless desert becomes an oasis,

When the extinct ancient creatures revived in this untouched land,
When the sleeping city construction wakes up here,
…
But bad news came from ahead, her planet is likely to be selected as a battlefield, where humans, Zergs, and alien beasts will fight in melee.
Ning Buyi: “!!!”
There is no way to destroy her planet!
