Synopsis

The main story is complete.

Waves rise on the sea with the wind’s help. When two people collide, is it carefully planned, or written in the stars?

Ye Lan didn’t know. All he knew was that he carried a secret he could never speak of, and that he had endured in silence for years for more than just high office and a life of luxury.

The officials said he curries favor, that he is deeply calculating, that he is a treacherous wolf who helped a rebel seize the throne. They said he bewitched the heir of Prince Yun until he could no longer pull himself away.

He never denied it, because he knew it was all true.

But “bewitching” was too strong a word. It was the imperial relative who wouldn’t leave him alone. The world said that man was haughty and ruthless, yet he cared for Ye Lan above all others. Even after Ye Lan’s unspoken secret came to light, he never left his side, and even risked his life to protect him.

Ye Lan said, “Even a loveless family can produce someone who knows how to love.”

“Jade to the world, but a bright pearl to me. I’ll hold you in my palm, beyond the reach of wind and snow.”
