Because the Xiao family opposed the Cheng clan's tyranny, they paid a terrible price: both parents died, and their elder brother was killed. Xiao Ling survived, carrying the hatred of his family destroyed and its members lost, and swore to kill every last member of the Cheng clan to avenge the Xiao family. Yet through a twist of fate, he fell in love with the Cheng family's second young master?
"You treat me so well. Aren't you afraid I'll repay your kindness with betrayal?"
"No. I'll always be on your side."
Xiao Ling thought this might be the most beautiful confession of love he'd ever heard.
