The Swallows Return: Will We Meet Again on the Country Road?

Xiao Zhi spent half his life alone, walking through thorns and storms by himself. When he first met Yan Fei, she was an orphan living under someone else's roof. Charming and obedient, she kept her head down and let him dote on her. He thought his relationship with Yan Fei was nothing more than a fleeting affair, beautiful as a reflection on water or a flower in the mirror. She was just a pawn; there was no need to get emotionally involved. But though he had planned for every eventuality, he never expected that, as time went by, people's hearts could change. Just as he was ready to settle down with her and give her a proper title, Yan Fei slipped away right under his nose. It turned out he was merely a substitute for the white moonlight in her heart. Her tenderness and submissiveness were all for his handsome face. From then on, he no longer dared to call himself heartless. Yan Fei was even more heartless than he was. The heroine treats the hero as a substitute. She has overwhelming combat prowess and no heart.
