    This book is truly amazing! The main couple gets married right at the beginning, and then the male lead tells the female lead that they won't do anything if they're not familiar with each other. The author's writing is superb, and the side couples are all incredibly sweet, especially the Eldest Princess and Helian Xun. "When you were here, I didn't understand love; when I finally did, it was too late—I had already lost you. Thankfully, heaven took pity on me, and you came back to my side."
