[Two male leads + ancient setting + fantasy + mutual redemption + happy ending] (Also known as: On This Journey, Chang’an Will Shine, Not Burn)
Mu Xihan × Chu Ningxiao
To fulfill his long-cherished wish, Chu Ningxiao infiltrates an enemy kingdom. As soon as he gets inside, he makes a beeline for the notoriously cruel and brutal Fourth Prince.
Everyone thinks he’s completely out of his mind. What kind of spy rushes headlong toward certain death?
He wasn’t killed? Then the prince must be keeping him around to torture him slowly. Tsk, how awful...
He’s been taken on as a guard? That must be some new way for the Fourth Prince to toy with people...
But... why does the Fourth Prince keep smiling whenever he looks at him? So strange.
When they see Chu Ningxiao spending every day by the Fourth Prince’s side, inseparable even at bedtime, they can no longer laugh.
He must have been possessed! That’s not the Fourth Prince, absolutely not!!!
“After all these years, you’ve obtained everything you sought. What will you do now?”
“My heart’s desire remains unfulfilled, and I have no way home. Your Highness, you are my long-cherished wish.”
To spend every day and night with you, and stay together for the rest of our lives.
(This isn’t a straightforward sweet romance. There’s emotional push and pull, and there are heartbreaking moments. The cast is large, and the story isn’t fast-paced. Both leads have flaws and unhealthy tendencies, so please keep that in mind before reading.)
