Chen Guan, a young opera performer, caught the eye of Wei Mo'an, the fourth prince of the Wei Kingdom, with his stunning beauty, and was brought back to Prince An's residence.
Chen Guan was already prepared to endure every kind of abuse, swallowing his humiliation and bearing hardship for the sake of avenging the blood feud that had destroyed his country and family.
Who knew that the legendary "Cold-Faced Prince An" would be so different from what he had imagined...
On his first day at the residence, Chen Guan saw the servants preparing his bath and assumed it was a prelude to spending the night with the prince. But Wei Mo'an merely took his hand as he began to undress and gave him an amused smile. "I didn't know you were so eager."
Ever since he was injured eight years ago, Chen Guan had suffered from a lingering illness and often coughed up blood. Wei Mo'an personally sought out a highly skilled but eccentric imperial physician for him, then said gently, "If you can't perform, then don't. Your health matters more than anything."
Wei Huxiao, the second prince of the Wei Kingdom, who had slaughtered Chen Guan's entire family, mocked him mercilessly. Wei Mo'an stepped in front of Chen Guan, his expression stern. "Apologize to A-Chen at once, or I will make you regret it!"
Every one of these things gradually brought warmth to Chen Guan's heart, long frozen over.
But he could never forget the national and family hatred that stood between him and Wei Mo'an.
Wei Mo'an grabbed the dagger in Chen Guan's hand and drove it toward his own chest. "If I die now, the entire Wei royal family will be gone. You can have your revenge once and for all."
Chen Guan hurriedly pulled out the blood-soaked dagger and threw himself into Wei Mo'an's arms, willing only to lose himself in him...
