Mother in the Octagon

Biting the Red Apricot

Su Wan, daughter of a wronged official, takes the alias "Hongxing" (Red Apricot) to sneak into the Regent's Mansion as a menial maid, aiming to steal the secret scroll from Regent Xue Ziqi to clear her father's name. Little does she know, the reputedly cold-blooded "Living Yama" has remembered her for a decade—the memory of her feeding him osmanthus cake outside the Minister's Mansion is etched in his soul. Thus, the mansion becomes a stage for the Regent's "chase": he "accidentally" runs into her daily, replaces her tattered clothes with new ones, leaves the scroll within her reach when she tries to steal it, and even snaps "This is mine" when she's bullied. When Su Wan finally gets the scroll, she finds a yellowed osmanthus cake paper inside—Xue Ziqi has already vindicated her father, and all his "tricks" are unspoken love. When she asks tearfully, "You knew who I was all along?", Xue Ziqi smirks: "From the day you stepped on my robe, you've been mine."

Transmigrated as the Villain Empress's Maid—My Thoughts Are Heard!

Su Wan stayed up all night finishing a novel where the villainess empress meets a tragic end, only to wake up as the personal maid of that very empress, Luo Zhao! She planned to keep a low profile and survive until the story's end, but her "inner voice broadcast" system suddenly activated—all her thoughts: complaining about Luo Zhao's "pretending to be cold but fearing the dark", mocking the "villain must lose" plot, and even fantasizing about Luo Zhao in a pink silk dress, were all clearly heard by Luo Zhao! On the surface, Luo Zhao maintains her "cold-blooded empress" dignity, but secretly treats every one of Su Wan's thoughts as an "exclusive secret": slipping a heater under Su Wan's pillow, deliberately delaying morning court to let her sleep longer, yet when Su Wan mentions "in the original plot, Luo Zhao will be assassinated by rebels", she shows panic for the first time. When rebels indeed besiege the city, Su Wan uses her transmigration foresight to help Luo Zhao defuse the crisis, but Luo Zhao suddenly grabs her hand: "Was what you thought yesterday—'wanting to live to the end with me'—true?" Can they break the "villain must die" fate? Can those eavesdropped thoughts turn into open, unreserved affection?
