One devoted couple, one man and one woman. Happy ending.
Until the age of eight, Qin Qianqian was the sole legitimate daughter of the mighty General Qin’s household, adored and cherished by all. But overnight, she was reduced to a starving courtesan after losing both her parents.
As her mother lay dying, she gave her one solemn command: You must survive!
Holding on to that promise, Qin Qianqian entered the Northern Abyss Prince’s residence and became the woman of Prince Leng Beizhao.
Leng Beizhao went from suspecting her to falling deeply in love with her. He even made an exception and allowed her to bear his child.
Day and night, Qin Qianqian prayed that the child would be born safely, so she and the prince could finally be a real family.
Then she could proudly tell her mother, “Mother, I survived, and I had a child with the man I love.”
She dreamed of that day constantly.
Leng Beizhao was waiting for it, too.
But one morning, he woke to find the woman in his arms gone.
She had left without a word, carrying his child and throwing herself into another man’s arms.
Leng Beizhao gritted his teeth. “If you insist on leaving, I won’t force you to stay. But leave my child behind.”
Qin Qianqian refused at once. “No! I can’t give you the child!”
“The child is of the Leng family. Why won’t you give the child to me?”
Qin Qianqian didn’t dare tell him the truth.
She wanted to survive, but she also wanted him to survive.
To take back his child, Leng Beizhao went so far as to raise an army in rebellion.
At last, Qin Qianqian and the child returned to his arms.
He thought they would finally be a happy, loving family.
But Qin Qianqian asked through her tears, her voice full of hate, “After you learned who I was, you pitied and loved me even more. Was it because you felt guilty?”
“Do you really not know whose blade killed my entire family?”
