No, the synopsis half right, half wrong. 1st episode has her marrying him by proxy while hes away carrying out…
He's the Prince overseeing the order and it is a legal order to kill traitors. Was the family framed? Yes, but that's beside the point since he wasn't the one who framed them. Her dad tells her as he's dying to not hold this against the Prince and seek revenge. As for the r*pe, is it right, no. But there was a clear reason for why he was doing it. They HAD to consummate the marriage for her to officially be his wife and not ending up needing to kill her too.
As for the "falling for" part she was in love with him BEFORE he killed her family and she killed herself, resetting time. Going back in time she sees him again and says NOPE, not marrying him, I'll marry his brother (her friend). But she does gain feelings for him again because she does NOT know he ALSO went back in time after dying so she just thinks he's the same dude from the past who has NOT yet been put in the position of killing her family, you know the guy she originally did fall in love with and wanted to marry.
Well, the summary is quite disturbing. They kill each other and we're supposed to believe they're lovers? How?…
No, the synopsis half right, half wrong. 1st episode has her marrying him by proxy while hes away carrying out the order to kill her family who have been convicted as traitors. She finds out, rushes home and sees her dad dying telling her not to seek revenge. ML has to consummate the marriage to make their marriage official so she won't be killed too and it's against her will. His brother, her childhood best friend, tries to save her so the ML banishes him which breaks her and she offs herself.
She wakes up in the past and decides she wants NOTHING to do with him and sets out to marry the brother instead. She does NOT know that ML is also reincarnated which helps her when falling for him again.
After the 1st episode there is pretty much zero toxicity to their romance which to me personally was a bit of a letdown after the 1st episode but might mean you'd like it, idk.
Oh wait.... I'm a clown. They don't mean dubbed as in someone dubbed the show in English, they used Chinese voiced actors to dub over the actors so it's not their real voices. totally normal in Chinese shows but this one is bad compared to others which is why they had the issues.
Weirdest blend of genres I've ever seen. It is impossible to describe the chaos of going from ott magical girl type fantasy comedy to sentimental tearjerker romance to horror within a few minutes. This demands a rewatch to fully appreciate what's going on in the plot since the first time you're just hanging on for dear life.
🤣 Recommended if you are fan of any of the actors, somehow started it already and have the "can't drop drama" disease, you're a glutton for punishment, you were dared to watch it, you have watched every other show ever created already...
That said, there is supposedly going to be romance happening between the main leads, we've had an accidental forehead "kiss" as far as "romance" goes (he fell and slammed his face/mouth against her forehead... scandalous).
Well it looks like we had to wait to get to ep 10 before FL gets a quasi- punishment for any of her actions. Not allowed to attend classes and must copy books in the library for 3 days because she was caught sneaking out after dark and watching illegal fireworks isn't a major deal compared to what all she's done so far though...
But hey, in this episode at least she didn't defame, maime, or almost kill the ML.

This one appears to be bad machine translation instead of human translated though so have fun making sense of it.
