The Frail Beauty

[Second in the Queue for Advance Reservations~]

In the darkest, most carefree days of his life, Qi Yue found a girl with snow-white skin, as delicate and fragile as a porcelain doll.

She was blind, world-weary, and spoiled, with nothing to offer but her beauty.

At first, he thought she was a beauty trap set by his family. He took care of her without much thought, only to discover that she was not only expensive to keep, but also terribly high-maintenance. The slightest loud noise made her cry, she was always falling ill, and every night he had to coax her to sleep.

The longer he cared for her, the more attached he became.

Just as he was spoiling her rotten, the little canary said coolly, "The game's over. If you don't want to get beaten to death, climb out the window."

Looking at Nan Xi in her black princess dress, with a crowd of bodyguards outside,

he finally understood that for the past six months, the little canary had only been playing with him.

The man's eyes turned bloodshot. Without a word, he left.

The Nan family of Jingcheng had always had a bad reputation, known in their circle for selling their daughters to gain status. They raised a whole batch of beautiful girls, hoping to enter the most elite circles, but it all backfired.

The only one left in the Nan family's main branch was Nan Huan, a frail young woman who had lost her sight. Just as everyone in their circle was waiting to laugh at her, the Nan family's little princess quietly attached herself to the Tan family, dealt with the second and third branches, and took iron-fisted control of the clan, leaving everyone stunned.

Just as Nan Huan was about to marry Tan Yan, heir to the Tan family, a huge scandal suddenly broke.

Rumor had it that Nan Huan had once eloped with someone and disappeared for six months, causing the marriage alliance between the two families to fall through.

The socialites in their circle were thrilled, and somehow the news made its way into the most elite inner circle.

"I heard Seventh Young Master Tan was almost tricked into marriage?"

"The tricked-into-marriage part isn't true. My cousin even broke with his family to marry her, but the Nan family called off the engagement."

"Is the young lady of the Nan family really that beautiful?"

The Qi family's heir, who had been a professional lurker for eight hundred years: "Beautiful."

The group chat instantly exploded.

"Brother Qi, you've seen her?"

The heir: "Yeah. I was the one who eloped with her back then."

The whole group fell completely silent.

Later, Tan Qi married someone else. Everyone waited to see Nan Huan become a laughingstock, but instead, they heard that Nan Huan had secretly married the Qi family's heir.

That day, Nan Huan posted on her social media: "There's no love between us. It's a business marriage."

The Qi family's heir replied instantly: "There's no love between us. The elders told me to marry her."

At the banquet the next evening, someone saw Qi Yue pinning the young woman against a tree in bloom, kissing her passionately...
