Love at First Sight, Then the Mad Prince Steals a Bride

A teary, tender-hearted young lady of a marquis's household + a scheming, ruthless prince [Possessive love + powerful male lead and vulnerable female lead + devoted to each other + doted on by him alone] (Not a power couple, not a strong female lead, not political intrigue, a heroine who grows over time) When Ning Wanyu was six, her legal mother schemed to send her back to a temple in her hometown to pray for blessings. Ten years of hardship followed, and her childhood sweetheart, Zhuang Suxing, was one of the few bright spots in her life. After waiting for ten years, she thought she would finally return to the capital, reunite with her birth mother, and marry the man of her dreams. Happiness seemed close enough to reach. But then she met that devil on the road, and he shattered every beautiful fantasy she had. After a trip to the capital, she lost what little warmth she had in her life. With no other choice, she sought out that devil, took off her skirt, and pleaded, “Everything was my fault before. Please have mercy on me, Your Highness. I am willing to become your concubine.” On his way back to the capital, Qin Huan saved Ning Wanyu. One glance was all it took for him to fall in love at first sight. He holds power over the court and possesses wealth enough to rival the four seas. Naturally, this beauty should be his as well. He forces her hand at every turn, never realizing when he lost his heart to her. The thing Zhuang Suxing regrets most in this life is not going to bring Ning Wanyu back to the capital himself. He protected her for ten years, but one careless move cost him everything. No matter how hard he fights after that, it is already too late.
