In his previous life, Bai Qing failed his tribulation, and a bolt of divine lightning from the highest heavens struck him straight into a primeval forest in the future.
In the forest, he found a handsome, gravely injured man. He had no idea that this thick-browed, bright-eyed man was actually a top-tier scumbag hiding in plain sight. After waking up, the man seemed dazed and foolish, but stuck to Bai Qing every day, professing his love. In the end, he used his shameless persistence to get the beauty into bed. When he learned Bai Qing was pregnant with their child, the scumbag showered him with sweet promises of eternal love, then vanished without a trace the very next moment.
The scumbag was irresponsible, but the baby was innocent. To keep the life growing inside him safe, Bai Qing had no choice but to leave the forest and search for the scumbag through countless hardships. Just as he had searched everywhere without success and was nearly at the end of his rope, the Empire suddenly announced the happy news that Crown Prince Xia Zuo was about to get engaged. Looking at Xia Zuo's face on the screen, almost identical to the scumbag's...
Bai Qing's fists... clenched.
The Crown Prince has a problem lately.
He's fallen in love at first sight and wants to marry someone as his Crown Princess.
The beauty has had a hard life, with no parents. Most pitifully, he's pregnant and still traveling thousands of miles to find his husband. Apparently, he fell for a scumbag who toyed with his feelings, and that irresponsible bastard abandoned him after seducing him. Just thinking of the beauty's despondent expression...
Xia Zuo's fists... clenched.
Who could it be?! Who could hurt such a delicate, plant-type beauty? He'd transform into his original form and challenge that man to a duel in the colosseum. He'd beat him until he was black and blue and barely breathing, and only then could he soothe the beauty's wounded heart!
Bai Qing: Heh.
Bai Qing: It's you.
Xia Zuo: Σ( ° △ °|||)︴!!!
