The Powerful Minister's Cherished Jewel

As the daughter of a marquis, Song Yunsang is wonderful in every way, except for one bad habit: when she gets angry, her body goes soft; when she argues, tears fall. Song Yunsang can't help it, and she hates having a body that won't obey her. Until one day, her father and little brother are thrown into the imperial prison, and she turns to Pei Gujin, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, for help. Pei Gujin is sinister and cold, but Song Yunsang unexpectedly discovers that he is afraid of women crying. Song Yunsang: "!! This is right up my alley!" And so: With tears in her eyes, Song Yunsang tugs on Pei Gujin's sleeve. "The spring rain is so cold and damp. I'm worried my father's old injuries will act up. I only want to see him once..." Pei Gujin takes her to the imperial prison. Song Yunsang sobs, "My little brother is innocent. He's only six..." After her little brother is released, Song Yunsang chokes back tears. "Father has already been in prison for two months..." And so on. Pei Gujin looks impatient, but he always gives her what she wants. Yet as they spend more time together, Song Yunsang realizes that the Pei-daren whom everyone in the capital fears isn't actually afraid of women crying. He's only afraid of her crying. He's afraid she'll be hurt, injured, disappointed, or unhappy... Pei Gujin has loved Song Yunsang since the first time he saw her in his previous life. But his love was so obsessive and passionate that it frightened and displeased Song Yunsang. After being reborn, Pei Gujin considered letting go. But the woman he had failed to win in his previous life kept taking the initiative to get close to him. Pei Gujin's heart is torn with inner conflict, while the woman behind him presses close and whispers in his ear, heedless of the consequences: "The storm is so fierce. Daren, will you... keep me company tonight?" Pei Gujin: "..." [Bonus Scene] When Pei Gujin realizes Song Yunsang is in danger, he goes back on his word yet again and brings her to his residence to protect her. In his study, Pei Gujin lays down the rules coldly. "I, Pei, am busy with official business and have no time to look after you. Don't disturb me unless it's necessary." After Song Yunsang leaves, Pei Gujin gives the servants he has summoned an icy list of instructions: Miss Song is a light sleeper. Keep the area outside her courtyard quiet. Miss Song likes mild flavors. Use less salt in her food. Miss Song gets cold easily. Make sure her floor-heating and charcoal fire are warm enough. Miss Song enjoys tea. Prepare the tribute Longshe tea... The servants: ?? Daren, you call that having no time to look after her? Reader's guide: 1.

Her fiancé cheated on her, and his mistress came over to gloat. The little sparrow Luanluan can't beat either of them, so she can only kick a tree stump to vent her anger. And at this humiliating moment, she runs into her sworn enemy, Rong Junhao. Luanluan hurriedly tries to escape, only to discover that Rong Junhao has lost his memory after being injured! Remembering how that odious white tiger always mocks her as a puffed-up little chick whenever he sees her, Luanluan gets carried away by her anger and comes up with a plan! She supports Rong Junhao and wipes away her tears as she sobs, "Haohao, do you remember me? I'm your master, the one you depend on for everything!" Rong Junhao: "..." Luanluan brazenly takes Rong Junhao home and keeps the famous White Tiger Lord of the Demon Realm as her pet and mount. In her cave, she makes the white tiger chase butterflies and cats, and even cruelly forces him to wag his tail. When they go out, she rides the white tiger around, showing off. She even gets Rong Junhao, in human form, to pretend to be her lover. Rong Junhao is obedient, doing whatever she says and letting Luanluan run wild until the Demon Realm is thrown into chaos. Then, by chance, Luanluan discovers that Rong Junhao never lost his memory at all. Luanluan: !!! She trembles under the cloud-patterned quilt, repeatedly thinking through how to confess and apologize without meeting a gruesome end. The great white tiger silently enters the room and lies down beside her as usual. His warm, damp tongue tenderly and affectionately licks her neck. Theme: If you want love and trust, you must offer understanding and respect.
