Shen Qingyan was the Shen family's cherished treasure, raised with every luxury and coddled from birth. Because his fate was frail and unstable, his father petitioned the throne to marry him to Xiao Shu, the iron-willed Prince Jing, the only man whose birth chart matched his and could protect him from misfortune.
Before the wedding, someone teased Xiao Shu: “Your Highness is marrying such a delicate young man. You’ll be burdened with him every step of the way.”
Xiao Shu said nothing, his gaze cold.
But after the wedding, everyone saw the battle-hardened Prince Jing completely surrender.
At night, he patiently soothed his beloved whenever his eyes grew red, indulging him in everything and cherishing him beyond measure.
