Both feature female leads as literal ASSASSINS! They also both are assassins who are undercover with jobs they need to do behind the scenes. Basically, both stories involve our FL's living two different lives trying not to get caught! Contract Concubine is definitely more lighthearted than Aidin (which is a revenge plot) but they gave off similar vibes with the assassin female lead plot (in which I wish there were more stories like them because I find the FL's being assassins so intriguing and badass!!) Anyways, both are good. Try them out!

In the face of countless tasks, disguised spies, and a set of interlocked stratagems, this couple are always between life and death. They are super smart and have discovered so many doubtful points. A modern teacher, who seems to be ordinary, bears a lot with high iq and rank, and can always play her card right. She is a clever and sweet princess. And he is a handsome but silly prince and bad actor who can either advance or retreat at will. That’s the most unlikely couple, with the most uncontrollable collision. Is it the god’s will or factitious?

The male lead in My Little Baby Prince and the female lead in The Concubine Contract had to pretend to be fools to trick their political enemies. I haven't finished reading any of them. However, so far, both are enjoyable and the themes feel quite similar as well.
