[A silly, sweet childhood-friends romance where the guy pursues the girl. A bedtime read.]
There is one unchanging rule in the cultivation world: nine out of ten sword cultivators are sword-crazy, and the last one has cut off all worldly attachments and proves their path by killing their spouse.
.
The person Ling Yue falls for happens to be a cold-hearted sword cultivator. He takes out the heavenly book he obtained, and the other party claims to be a matchmaking System, codename 1436. As long as he does what it says, no girl is beyond his reach!
.
Ling Yue is very tempted. So, while exploring a secret realm with the one he loves, 1436 shouts, "Go for it! Pin her against the wall! Make her heart race!"
.
Ling Yue blushes and pins his beloved against the wall. To his surprise, Huo Ning just gazes at him with her clear black-and-white eyes, then suddenly understands. She turns aside and knocks on the stone wall behind her, full of admiration.
"How did you realize there was a hidden passage here?"
.
With the System's diligent efforts, Ling Yue finally goes from being the little crybaby she knew as a child to a reliable companion in Huo Ning's eyes.
.
Huo Ning says sincerely, "You're such a good person."
.
Ling Yue thinks he's already been ruled out, and even the System says he's been given the good-person card and is beyond saving.
.
Cradling his shattered, rainbow-colored glass heart, he gets ready to leave this place of heartbreak. But not long after, the one he loves comes over. Huo Ning is still as cold as the sword in her hand, but she gently tugs at his sleeve.
"Don't go."
.
I just love sweet stories where the male lead pursues a cold-hearted female lead, hehehe. Gotta indulge my own tastes.
