Sent to the regent as a pawn, Gu Qingping saw his husband's true colors in a single night!
Three years of marriage, three years of a marriage in name only, and his birthday banquet turned out to be a vicious trap designed to catch him in an affair!
After narrowly escaping death, he stumbled upon his husband's infidelity and cut off their three-year entanglement with a divorce agreement.
He thought he could finally leave the quagmire of the powerful behind and live out the rest of his life in peace.
But then came an assassination attempt at Xishan. The regent, Xiao Chengqian, was struck by a deadly poison from Nanjiang, and only the scent of the warm jade from Kunshan on Gu Qingping could keep him alive!
Regent Xiao Chengqian: You are the man who saved my life, and the one I hold dearest in my heart.
He claimed Gu Qingping possessively, keeping him locked in his embrace night after night and refusing to let go.
Gu Qingping was dumbfounded. "Your Highness, we're just medicine and its antidote!"
Xiao Chengqian held him by the waist, his eyes brimming with ardor.
Gu Qingping had only wanted a peaceful life, but instead this all-powerful man spoiled him to the very bone.
Well, since that's how it is, then... so be it!
