#Lots of schemes early on, then the male lead gets his comeuppance.

In the fifteenth year of Yuanhe, an imperial decree arranged a marriage between Lin Xi, the eldest legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Changning’s household, and Gu Qingchi, heir to the Duke of Zhenguo. But Gu Qingchi vanished for three months after their wedding.

They say Miss Lin is as graceful and beautiful as an immortal, gentle and charming, yet frail and sickly since childhood. Three months into her marriage, she died young.

In truth, while everyone sighed over her tragic fate, Lin Xi quietly climbed out of her coffin. Taking the alias “Shuangqi,” she disguised herself and lived as she pleased.

After faking her death and escaping, Lin Xi happened upon half of a magical jade pendant. The moment she clasped it in her hand,

a voice as clear and pure as snow, as lovely as a stream striking stone, came from the pendant and struck her heart.

“Who’s there?”

A faint blush slowly crept over Lin Xi’s ears, and her heart hammered.

After that, Lin Xi began seeking out the owner of the voice to talk with him. He was called “Chi Yi,” and he was always cold and indifferent toward her.

But aloof beauties like him were a challenge, and Lin Xi found them irresistible.

And the owner of the voice really was proud and cold, like snow on a mountain peak.

Lin Xi stayed by his side, using every trick she knew to flirt with him. At last, she managed to make him fall for her.

Just as she was congratulating herself on a successful scheme,

one night, the man got drunk and lost his senses. He wrapped his arms tightly around her waist and rested his head in the crook of her neck.

He murmured her real name.

The aloof beauty she’d lured in was actually her husband, who she had left behind when she faked her death!

His supposedly cold and distant behavior had all been part of his own scheme.

Gu Qingchi was born bound by the will of those in power, a hidden pawn in their game. As a boy, he fell for a bright, free-spirited girl, but after an accident, she no longer remembered him.

He used his achievements to obtain the emperor’s approval for their marriage. But before the wedding, he was ambushed, and when he awoke, he heard the news of Lin Xi’s “death.”

His heart shattered. Then he heard a familiar voice coming from the jade pendant.

Only then did he learn that Lin Xi had faked her death. Unwilling to let her forget him forever, he began to put his plan into motion.

He pretended to be the kind of man she liked, acting cold and keeping her at arm’s length, making it impossible for her to leave him.

But his plan went wrong, and Lin Xi was so furious she wanted to cut ties with him for good.

“Gu Qingchi, you lied to me!”

He panicked and held Lin Xi tightly, wishing he could merge her into his very bones. His aloof facade was nowhere to be seen.

“Xixi, I was wrong.”

Blurb 1

Shen Youzhu loses her sight after her family is struck by a devastating crisis.

She shuts herself away in a room without light and lets her days pass aimlessly.

Later, an unexpected guest arrives at her home. He is said to be the man she is engaged to.

He quietly makes his way into her territory, into her life.

In his deep, refined voice, he tells Shen Youzhu stories, cooks her all kinds of delicious food, and gently coaxes her to take her medicine when she’s sick.

At first, Shen Youzhu refuses to accept any of it. She tries everything she can to drive him away, but he won’t budge an inch.

As his gentle care wears her down day after day, Shen Youzhu gradually softens.

One day, in the depths of winter, with snow thick on the ground and darkness swirling outside, magnificent, brilliant fireworks light up everything. Shen Youzhu regains her sight and sees the face of the man in front of her.

He is the man who approached her when they were young because of a bet, only to be cruelly abandoned by her.

The withering rose is battered and broken, yet someone cherishes and protects it like a treasure.

The man’s cool, woody scent envelops Shen Youzhu as their warm breaths mingle.

“Are you here to laugh at me, or to get revenge?”

Song Tinghuai toys with a strand of Shen Youzhu’s dark hair in his beautiful, sinewy hand. Light from the sky outside filters through the clouds and falls across his deep-set eyes.

“I’m here to take you to see the fireworks.”

His dark eyes brim with intense emotion, like the dazzling fireworks that night, setting Shen Youzhu’s frozen heart ablaze.

When they were young, Shen Youzhu was adored by everyone, bright and uninhibited. She entered Song Tinghuai’s bleak, impoverished world, only to cast him aside as if he were worthless and vanish without a trace.

Song Tinghuai held onto his resentment for years.

But when he sees Shen Youzhu, numb and lifeless like a puppet, and the glaring crimson blood flowing from her wrist,

all those so-called feelings vanish. A ripping pain spreads from his heart through every limb.

He will forever be lost in the fireworks of winter, and in her beneath them.

He will bring his rose back to life.
