Everyone says the Emperor’s third son is brilliantly gifted and breathtakingly handsome, deep and aloof, and that he never gives anyone or anything a second thought.
Yet she, reborn into this life, knows how he gave up flesh and bone for her in her previous one.
As his blood ran dry, he still wished he could offer up the warmth of his heart to keep her warm.
Reborn, she has finally recognized her feelings and wants nothing more than to marry him.
But he treats her with icy indifference.
She embraces him from behind and murmurs, “Your Highness, you never even look at me. Do you truly not want to marry me?”
He remains unmoving. But just as she turns away in disappointment, he scoops her up. “You’re standing behind me. How am I supposed to look at you?”
He redeemed her in her previous life. In this one, she is willing to spend her whole life by his side, crossing muddy roads, braving wind and frost, and growing old together.
