A prideful crown prince who won’t admit his feelings × a frail, quietly enduring beauty
Pei Shu thinks he ought to hate Wen Yan.
Because her family ruined his.
But when she shows up at his door with a child, he inexplicably takes them in.
Pei Shu hates her, and himself too.
Fueled by youthful passion and an irrepressible hatred, he always loses control when it comes to certain things.
One of them sleeps soundly, while the other lies awake all night, tormented by pain.
Pale-faced, Wen Yan curls up in his arms, fighting through the pain. Her trembling hand brushes his face, and for once, her voice is tinged with tears. “I’m dying. Why can’t you just be gentle with me?”
Only when she risks her life to give birth to his child does Pei Shu learn that she has been hiding such a huge secret.
She gave their child life, but what about her?
“Yan Yan, I hate you.” Pei Shu kneels beside her hospital bed, eyes reddened, and presses a kiss to her pale forehead. “But I love you even more. Please wake up and look at me, all right?”
