Synopsis
The romantic comedy follows Pia, an ordinary graduate student who is reincarnated as a 10-year-old “minor villainess” in the world of an otome game. She remembers that the game ends with her engagement to Rufus Stan, the prime minister’s son, being broken off and with her exile from the country. Hoping to avoid that fate, she asks Rufus to cancel their engagement while they are still children. Instead, her request only makes Rufus more interested in her, and he proposes a wager: they will see whether he truly breaks off the engagement within seven years.
