The day Pei Muyu returned to the imperial capital, Zhao Huaijing rode past and caught sight of a dazzling, bold smile.
That very day, he lured Pei Muyu into his residence.
“Pei, keep up!”
Wait, seducing me is one thing, but how did you manage to make my younger sister follow you around like a little shadow, too?
And who is this cool, aristocratic young master before me, behaving as meekly as a rabbit? His presence is so faint he might as well have appeared out of thin air!
Hah! Let this Prince Regent peel off that disguise!
After a whirlwind of pursuit and escape, cat and mouse, extreme contrasts, and flirtatious push and pull...
Something’s not right! Why have I suddenly got the urge to kiss him? Have I been cursed?
After they got together:
“Your Highness, hear me out. I’ve already thought it through. Keeping things as they are and not going public is the right choice.”
Zhao Huaijing could only lament his fate. He’d had just one relationship in over twenty years, and now the dignified Prince Regent had to carry on a secret romance?
Sitting in Zhao Huaijing’s lap, Pei Muyu breathed softly against his ear. “Do you agree or not?”
He couldn’t resist, couldn’t fight the temptation, couldn’t hold himself back at all...
Fine, fine. Whatever my darling says goes.
Who could have guessed their secret romance would nearly turn into a love affair between the living and the dead?
I’m back, and I’m going to reclaim everything that belongs to me! Rescue him and hold a grand wedding, then depose the emperor and install a new ruler before the assembled civil and military officials!
