The Darling in My Palm

[Innocent, lively, spoiled little princess VS. elegant, aloof Tutor Gu]

Shen Cishu always thought that although the Grand Tutor seemed cold and uncaring, he was actually a very kind person.

They first met in the Eastern Palace, where she disguised herself as a palace maid to sneak a peek at him.

When she accidentally fell, he didn't get angry. Instead, he gave her some medicine for her injury.

The next time they met was also in the Eastern Palace. She happily brought some snacks and eavesdropped outside his door.

He didn't take offense. Instead, he casually took one of her favorite treats.

The Grand Tutor treated her wonderfully, yet seemed to want nothing from her.

It wasn't until later, when her Crown Prince brother told her that the Grand Tutor had asked him for a palace maid, that she realized he didn't want nothing. He had his eye on her.

Rumor had it in the capital that the young master of the Gu family was so gifted that he had become famous throughout the city at the age of twelve. He was the unattainable ideal of countless noble young women across the Great Yan Dynasty.

But no one knew that the young Grand Tutor, the dream man of every noble young woman, already had a darling of his own.
