Qin Chuan had been held hostage in a neighboring country. He was a pawn, and more than that, a discarded one. Just when he was utterly disheartened, he met again the little girl who used to follow him everywhere. How could he stand by and watch her be bullied and humiliated?!
Qin Chuan: "Either come with me!"
After waiting a long while with no more to follow, Sang Ye'er asked, "Either?"
Qin Chuan: "You must!"

[Upcoming novel] Don't Disturb Me While I Govern with Diligence and Care for the People
They say the notoriously violent and unruly King Hao killed so many people that he developed a strange illness.
Now he smiled and laughed every day, diligently governing and caring for his people.
The ministers watched their once-violent king gradually become a wise ruler, and kept speculating that King Hao must be plotting some grand scheme. One by one, they worried themselves bald.
Your Majesty, you've killed so many people your hand's gone numb. Are you planning to create a prosperous age just for a change of pace?
This is unacceptable!
The ministers stroked their worryingly receding hairlines and swore to remonstrate to the death.
King Hao looked at all the bald heads beneath his throne and ordered everyone in the kingdom to shave their heads.
Oh my! Just as expected!
Until one day, a young woman resolutely entered the royal court.
"I, your servant, have come to cure the king's illness!"
King Hao raised his head from the piles of memorials and sneered. "Get lost. No one is to disturb me while I govern with diligence and care for the people."
And yet
It's fun to mistreat your wife for a while, but chasing her afterward is hell.
