[Calm, patient military commander Xu Yue VS hot-tempered female general Liu Daomian]
[Pure historical romance + childhood sweethearts + winning her back + no women fighting over men + girls help girls]
“No man would fall for a shrew with not a shred of femininity.”
Liu Daomian thought so too. She believed she was destined to remain unmarried, until Xu Yue, the dream man of countless young women in the capital, sent her a priceless fox-fur cloak for her coming-of-age ceremony.
Was… he declaring his love?
Before she could react, her father hurriedly arranged their engagement, and just like that, she found herself with a fiancé.
But after five years together, Liu Daomian began to realize that Xu Yue might not like her after all. He didn't mind when she played cuju with his soldiers and draped an arm around their shoulders. When she tried to spend the night at his camp on the excuse that it was too late to travel, he sent her home. She showered him with sweet words, and he treated her with proper courtesy…
It wasn't until they fell into danger and were rescued by a stunningly beautiful village woman that Liu Daomian realized Xu Yue could look at another woman that way…
Hmph. Men really are swayed by beauty!
Wait… Liu Daomian leaned in for a closer look. This village woman really was charming and pretty!
Xu Yue's inner thoughts: What is she looking at???
