A sudden car accident took all the light from Xiao Qingli's eyes.
Once, she was the envy of everyone in the capital's elite circles, a beloved daughter of heaven. Her beauty could topple kingdoms, her skin was fair as snow, untouched by the vulgarity of the world. Her cool, noble bearing made people admire her from afar. Her signature phoenix eyes, their outer corners slightly raised, shimmered with a clear light whenever she glanced around. Paired with her ethereal, crystalline voice, as clear as a mountain stream, she seemed like an immortal who had mistakenly descended into the mortal world.
Countless scions of prominent families had fallen for her, and countless parties had been graced by her presence. She was the precious jewel the Xiao family held in the palm of its hand, and the unattainable moonlight in everyone's eyes. But fate was cruel. One out-of-control car crash brought all that splendor and radiance to an abrupt end.
Now, those captivating phoenix eyes held nothing but a hollow stillness.
There was no light, no sparkle. Even their movements seemed stiff. They could no longer reflect the world's vibrant beauty, or take in the pain and worry of those around her. To her, the world had suddenly plunged into endless darkness, with no day or night, no colors, only boundless silence and loneliness.
