Revenge Turns Bloody, and an Easygoing Prince Becomes an Accomplice

[Miss Fang, a well-behaved young lady on the surface but ruthless behind closed doors VS an arrogant, aloof, germaphobic prince with nothing to do] Everyone in the capital knows the current emperor has a precious ward. Though they are not related by blood, he cherishes the young man dearly and made him a prince when he was just five. Yet now, at twenty-eight, he is still unmarried. “That prince is sick!” “Keep your voice down unless you want to die! What kind of illness?” “He’s obsessed with cleanliness!” “But I heard he visits brothels.” “Don’t let his wife hear you say that.” “What’s there to worry about? Everyone in the capital knows the legitimate daughter of Fang, the Vice Minister of Revenue, is a sweet, meek girl. A pushover.” At the highest point of Chuanyun Tower, two perfectly matched figures gazed out over the city. Cheng Qingwu propped his chin on one hand, his thin lips curling as he drawled, “So my wife really is a well-behaved girl.” “That’s right.” Fang Lechu put away the hand she had been using to wipe her blade and brushed the loose hair from her temple. “I never expected Prince Qin to be a germaphobe, either.” After all, when they first met at Chuanyun Tower, their passionate tryst hardly suggested he was a man who cared about cleanliness. They exchanged smiles and gazed at the distant lights of countless homes, with stars glittering above. They had long since forgotten that three meters behind them, two children sat hungrily on the ground, reciting The Art of War. “Sigh. Father only has eyes for Mother. When does he ever care about us?” “You should be grateful. Mother only has eyes for Father, too!” So it turned out that parents were true love, and children were accidents!
