Xiao Lin, a regent who was poisoned as a child, has been told he won't live past twenty-five. While investigating clues about the former dynasty's surviving heirs, he encounters the physician Su Xiaoxuan.
Suspicious of her identity, he keeps Su Xiaoxuan at his residence. As they spend time together, he is drawn to her kindness and superb medical skills, but because of his status and poisoned body, he can only watch her silently. In time, Su Xiaoxuan glimpses the tenderness beneath Xiao Lin's cold exterior. Once she understands his reservations, she takes the initiative, proving that when a woman pursues a man, the barrier is no thicker than a layer of gauze.
After Xiao Lin acknowledges his feelings, he begins to pursue her in return.
Just as the two are preparing to face the future together, they become entangled in court intrigue, and a misunderstanding leaves their relationship hanging by a thread. Perhaps love is most unforgettable when it ends abruptly at its most passionate.
Liking someone is one thing; loving them is another. You can take back a crush, but not love. In the end, Xiao Lin must go through hell to win his wife back.
It's very interesting. The writing is nice. Good luck to the author. I hope it will be updated soon.
