Their first meeting: He stood on the stairs, looking down at her, his voice cold for his age: "You must listen to me, or I'll kick you out of the manor."

    In this modern romance novel, the male and female protagonists are from different countries, and their families are evenly matched in power. The male protagonist's family truly has a throne to inherit. When he was young, some evil forces kidnapped him to incite political conflict between their two countries and took him to the female protagonist's country. He was used as an experimental subject and tortured beyond recognition, his body covered in wounds. The female protagonist rescued him, but he was so badly injured that his eyes were barely open. He only vaguely saw something green, like a bright gemstone—that was actually the female protagonist's eyes. She inherited her father's emerald-green eyes. The female protagonist's father and the male protagonist's father were good friends, and the male protagonist's father took a photo with the female protagonist and brought it back. The male protagonist saw it and became obsessed with her. After recovering from his injuries, he came to the female protagonist's country to attend school with her. From childhood to adulthood, according to the male lead's father, the male lead is the most beautiful child in their family in a hundred years. Yes, the most beautiful. The female lead's relationship with her father is also super heartwarming. I really like the female lead's father, our proud Princess Ji (Ji Gongzhu is a name given to the female lead's father by readers while reading the story. After reading it, you will feel that it is very appropriate. Everyone calls him Princess Ji).
