[Two formidable leads + a touch of political scheming, nothing too brain-burning]
[Truly peerless, icy beauty × Fake spoiled and willful heiress]
Lu Zhaoning was born with the fate of a phoenix, but she scoffs at the idea.
Her mother died young, and her “father” ignores her. Luckily, she has an “older brother” who dotes on her to no end.
At first, she doesn't understand Lu Chengzhou's feelings for her.
Until...
“Master, what does it mean to like someone?”
“When seeing him makes you incredibly happy, being apart from him makes you inexplicably sad, and you can't bear to see him suffer even the slightest harm.”
Lu Zhaoning thought it over. That sounded a lot like how she felt...
“What if I keep dreaming about him?”
“Then you like him.”
Once she confirmed her feelings, she began pursuing Lu Chengzhou with all her might.
Lu Chengzhou kept yielding and holding back at every turn.
“Lu Zhaoning, stay away from me.”
“My master said that if you like someone, you should get closer to them.”
“Will you say yes to me now?”
“...”
“Will you marry me?”
“I will.”
The man's lips curved upward. “You said it yourself.”
When he returned from the battlefield, he heard that she was going to marry someone else.
He smiled. “As her older brother, I won't allow it~”
“Ningning, be good. He's not good enough for you.”
“I am good enough for you.”
