[Sunny runaway bride and seasoned cardsharp heiress × aloof, gloomy Ghost King prince, each other’s only salvation, 1v1]
Others run away from their weddings to hide from the groom. Pei Mingyu ran away to chase after the God of War prince, right under her fiancé’s nose!
“Your Highness, you saved my life. I have no way to repay you, so I can only offer myself to you!”
Zhou Jingchen furrowed his brows, icy intent swirling in his eyes. “Insolence.”
Who could have guessed the girl wouldn’t be intimidated at all? She leaned close to him. “Your Highness, I’m the only one who can help you find the antidote to the Seven Star Begonia poison in your system.”
From then on, Guanyu City gained a curious sight: wherever Zhou Jingchen went, Pei Mingyu followed close behind.
He investigated spies, and she offered to help. He practiced martial arts, and she crouched nearby to keep him company. When he was pestered by the woman who had once been his one true love, she stepped forward and declared her claim: “Miss, the prince is mine!”
Shen Zhiyan tried to reason with her. “Mingyu, you’ll never warm up that block of ice!” Pei Mingyu smiled slyly. “If I can’t warm him up, I’ll melt him!”
Until one day, Zhou Jingchen caught her by the wrist, his dark eyes reddening. “Pei Mingyu, you’ve been clinging to me for so long. You can’t run away now. It’s too late.”
