[Black Lotus, spoiled princess × stoic hostage prince with a broken-heart vibe]
|Power couple|Scheming and ruthless|A groveling chase to win her back|Love of country|
They say Xu Feiwan, Princess Xining of Nansheng, is a beautiful airhead spoiled rotten by her family.
No one knows that at fourteen, she avenged the Crown Prince’s murder by poisoning his killer. She has a brilliant mind and a network of agents at her command.
Yan Chi, the deposed Crown Prince of Beiliang, was sent to Nansheng as a hostage by his usurping uncle. His father was dead, his mother disgraced, and he had to enter the palace barefoot.
To reclaim his throne, he was willing to kneel at her feet.
“Your Highness, please take pity on me.”
After he married into her family, everyone laughed: the princess was debauched, and the hostage was easy to bully.
He thought he was using her, carefully laying his plans step by step, only to fall for her under her protection.
Three years later, civil war broke out in Beiliang, and Xu Feiwan sent him home. She received word that Yan Chi had reclaimed his throne, and then news that he had taken a new wife.
She sent him divorce papers.
When war broke out between the two nations, Yan Chi led his army south and laid siege to Kaifeng. Nansheng surrendered.
“Did you always think of me as a dog you raised?”
She sneered. “No, a wolf. A thankless wolf that can never be tamed.”
[Reading Guide]
1. One-on-one romance, both leads are devoted to each other in body and heart; some angst along the way.
2. Please don’t send writing advice. No need to tell me if you drop the novel.
3. There is a pure-love secondary couple. If that bothers you, please don’t read.
4. The heroine is starved for affection, with a sharp tongue and a soft heart. The hero is the jealous type. Both have personality flaws.
