From the moment Yan Le was born, she was destined to be a pawn others coveted. Her family was used as a spear and a shield. No one cared whether they lived or died, only whether their own goals could be achieved. She will not run. She will strike back against her oppressors with bloodthirsty vengeance.
The moment the cold-hearted Shadow made a pact with her, he was destined to stand in a court rife with schemes. His heart was utterly transformed by the tenderness she showed him.
But as conspiracies close in on her again and again, can she hold on to her tenderness, her innocence, and her simplicity?
When Mu Lingyi stands alone in the court, can he remain detached?
As they walk side by side through schemes and machinations, will their actions wound their enemies, or those from the past to whom they once made promises?
He searched for her for twelve years, only to hear her say upon her return, “Forget me.”
Yan Le is merciless to everyone, cutting off every attachment she has.
Except with Mu Lingyi, for whom she is tender beyond measure.
Can't understand 🤦🤦
