(Marriage first, love later + mutual devotion + everyone speaks their mind)
Zhao Qianruo is the General’s only precious daughter. Sweet-tempered, quiet, clever, and adorable from childhood, she fell into a coma for several days after a serious illness at the age of seven. When she woke, her personality had changed completely: she had become short-tempered, arrogant, and overbearing.
When she grew up, she said, “I like the Second Prince,” and the emperor granted her a marriage, letting her marry Xiao Heng, Prince Yi, as she wished.
Prince Yi was forced into the marriage. After the wedding, he treated his princess as if she weren’t there, avoiding her at every turn.
But their bond ran deeper than that.
“Xiao Heng, why can you be kind and pleasant to everyone around you, but with me you’re either cold or cruel? I didn’t do anything wrong this time.”
“Ruru, let’s consummate our marriage...” Xiao Heng wrapped his arms around Zhao Qianruo, his voice low and husky, yet tender beyond measure.
He had nearly pushed away with his own hands the girl who brought light into his darkness.
For the rest of his life, he would never waste their youth or let her down.
