Beloved Princess, Don’t Run! Your Childhood-Friend Prince Is Madly in Love with You

[Faithful couple, one-on-one romance + childhood sweethearts + unrequited love becomes mutual + sweet romance + fictional setting (very fictional)]

Ning Wanlan is the only princess in the Great Zhao Empire. Her father is the chancellor, her mother is the Marquis of Dingbei, a renowned battlefield commander, and her childhood sweetheart is the illustrious Prince Chen. The emperor and empress watched her grow up, and the empress dowager adores her. She truly seems heaven’s chosen one, showered with love and affection.

The only thing that troubles her is that she was born with a congenital weakness and is often ill. Fortunately, a renowned physician who appears out of nowhere takes her as a disciple, and her condition is brought under control.

Life is wonderful: she has a noble status, money, and leisure. Of course she should enjoy it, live happily with her parents, and steer clear of trouble whenever possible. Marriage is completely off her mind.

But her childhood sweetheart, Xie Yan, schemes at every turn to be with Ning Wanlan. She retreats, he advances; she evades him, he seeks her out.

“As long as I can be with A Lan, I’d even be willing to marry into your family.”

In the end, Ning Wanlan shamefully fell for him.

Being with someone else might be trouble, but being with Xie Yan definitely wouldn’t be.

In Xie Yan’s eyes, there are only two kinds of people: his childhood sweetheart and everyone else.
