Born to a distinguished family, Su Xiayin was forced to retreat to the mountains to cultivate because of her frail health. There, she received word that her father and brother had died on the battlefield.
She enters the capital to restore her name as a war goddess, but the Second Prince’s feelings toward her remain unclear.
Amid a rain of arrows, he shields her from harm. Su Xiayin would rather risk her life than trust him, and Wen Shaohuan can only embrace the gravely wounded woman with a bitter smile. “Why can’t you trust me just once?”
Exhausted, Su Xiayin lies in his arms and asks coolly, “Did you have anything to do with my father and brother’s deaths?”
At once, Wen Shaohuan turns deathly pale. “A-Yin, I wouldn’t dare… They were your father and brother…”
