[Pure historical romance, family and country, political intrigue, ensemble cast, devoted couple, personal growth] A beautiful, resilient orphan × a cunning, aloof powerbroker
Everyone said Xie Yizhi had betrayed his country and defected to the enemy. They called him sinister, vicious, and inhuman, hating, humiliating, cursing, and ostracizing him by every means imaginable. Then one day, a strikingly beautiful woman pulled him behind her, blocked the torrent of malice, and struck back. The voices fell silent one after another.
Huixin diligently studied the art of seduction, trying now and then to tempt Xie Yizhi, but he rejected her time and again. One day, she witnessed with her own eyes how even the peerless beauty rumored to be a femme fatale who could ruin a nation had failed to win him over. She came to the conclusion that Xie Yizhi had no interest in women.
One morning, Xie Yizhi looked at the person sleeping soundly in his arms, then at the utterly disheveled room, and suddenly realized that
she had used on him the very art of seduction he had once pressured and cajoled her into learning.
If only he’d known... he would have tricked her into learning a little more.
