In the year 3232 of the Star Calendar, faced with the growing power of the Zerg, the Empire’s royal family had no choice but to arrange a marriage alliance with the Beastfolk.
The old emperor patted his third daughter on the head and said kindly:
“The Beastfolk may be a little rough around the edges, but at least they’re simple-hearted.”
Her younger siblings looked at her with admiration, too:
“Third Sister, you’re making a sacrifice for the happiness of countless families on Blue Star.”
Xie Mingying accepted the fate laid out for her and brought back a rabbit from the Beastfolk planet. Who could have guessed that her rabbit prince consort would be such an over-the-top green tea:
“Your brothers and sisters are all tigers, and I’m the only rabbit. A Ying, you won’t think I’m too weak, will you?”
“The males on your Blue Star are all so fierce. No one would find a mate like that on our Beastfolk planet.”
Everyone scoffed. His tea-making skills were so basic; it was all stuff Blue Star people had been doing thousands of years ago.
The ostracized little rabbit drooped his ears and ran back to Xie Mingying.
“Everyone seems not to like me very much. At least you’re kind, A Ying.”
Xie Mingying tugged at the corner of her mouth. If it weren’t for your mother being the Beast King, who’d bother with a little wild rabbit like you?
Sigh, today is another day I want to divorce my green-tea rabbit prince consort!
