"Madman x delicate flower"
When her father's conspiracy and corruption were exposed, the emperor ordered the execution of the entire family. All the women in the household were sold off to brothels, and Yan Xin could not escape her fate.
She was ready to end her own life, but Fifth Prince Xiao Yanzhi took her back to his estate.
Xiao Yanzhi was a blood-soaked killer who treated human life like grass. Everyone respected and feared him, seeing him as a demonic asura. Yan Xin was terrified and lived cautiously, waking from nightmares every night.
When Xiao Yanzhi questioned her, she trembled as she replied, "I am of the Yan family. My father and brothers have met with disaster, so naturally I worry about them."
Xiao Yanzhi's lips curved faintly at her words.
"You belong to me now," he said, his five icy fingers closing around her pale, fragile throat. "Have you understood?"
Though he had taken her in, Xiao Yanzhi never paid any attention to Yan Xin's circumstances. The servants were sycophants, and behind her back they called her the blind girl. But when Yan Xin came down with a strange illness one day, Xiao Yanzhi spent a fortune to summon every famous doctor in the city to treat her.
After three days and three nights, her condition had not improved at all. Xiao Yanzhi had killed countless physicians, and the entire imperial residence reeked of blood, its grounds stained red.
Yan Xin clutched Xiao Yanzhi's robe. "Your Highness, please stop killing people."
The little girl was still afraid of him; her voice trembled.
She boldly put her arms around his waist, her eyes misty with tears. "Without Your Highness's permission, Xin'er wouldn't dare to die."

The male lead has no moral compass. He'll kill anyone who stands in his way, be they gods or Buddhas, and is kind only to the female lead.
