The Crown Prince's Rented Bride

To escape an arranged marriage, a supposedly poor scholar “rents” a wife—and accidentally chooses a beautiful heiress in disguise. What starts as a fake marriage takes them from a quiet village to her ruthless family, where powerful relatives humiliate her and threaten his entire family. Forced to fight back, he risks everything to protect the woman he never meant to love. Then his true identity is exposed: the humble scholar is actually the Crown Prince of the Liang Dynasty! The woman who mocked him is suddenly on her knees.
